Relativism as a Challenge to Religion : Christianity, Truth and the "Dictatorship of Relativism"

open access: yes, 2018
Why is relativism perceived to be a danger to Christianity and even to the whole Western world? What is it that the former pope, Benedict XVI (Joseph Ratzinger), in particular, thinks is so deeply problematic about relativism?

Dialoguer avec les brahmanes : de l’œuvre missionnaire aux Voyages philosophes

open access: yesViatica
This article explores the dialogue with Brahmins – as a discursive form and as an engagement with Hindu beliefs –, which is a key component in the work of the Jesuit Father Roberto de Nobili, before being reinvested in an ambiguous way by travel-writers ...

Azande Witchcraft, Epistemological Relativism and the Problem of the Criterion [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
In this paper, I discuss the problem of epistemological relativism, which I take to be the problem of providing epistemic norms with an objective rational justification, rather than the problem of arguing for universality.

Construction and Worldmaking: the Significance of Nelson Goodman’s Pluralism [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Goodman’s style may be elusive sometimes, so that it may result difficult to interpret what he really has in mind. This is a consequence of his masterful use of irony and metaphorical language.

Pure Inverse Spin Hall Effect in Ferromagnetic Ni80Fe20/Y3Fe5O12 (YIG) Heterostructures via the Longitudinal Spin Seebeck Effect

open access: yesAdvanced Physics Research, EarlyView.
A pure inverse spin Hall effect (ISHE) is demonstrated in ferromagnetic Ni₈₀Fe2₀/YIG heterostructures via the longitudinal spin Seebeck effect. By employing symmetry‐controlled geometries and reference samples, anomalous Nernst contributions are quantitatively eliminated, revealing intrinsic spin–charge conversion in Ni₈₀Fe2₀.

Two‐Photon Absorption in Perovskite Semiconductors

open access: yesAdvanced Physics Research, EarlyView.
The two‐photon absorption (TPA) models used for perovskite semiconductors were primarily developed for conventional semiconductors and neglect the unique perovskite band structure. We have developed a model for the perovskite TPA coefficient, incorporating the inter‐ and intra‐band transitions in the conduction band states.

Theoretical Relativism and Normative Relativism [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
In the article two ways of understanding cognitive relativism are presented: as a thesis about equivalence (theoretical relativism) and as a thesis about the arbitrariness of choice (normative relativism).

Raman Response of Monolayer Graphene Upon Varying TCNE Adsorption

open access: yesAdvanced Physics Research, EarlyView.
Low TCNE loading induces p‐type doping in monolayer graphene without significantly disturbing local lattice symmetry, due to a structurally favorable molecular arrangement. At higher TCNE concentrations, the D‐band emergence indicates increasing symmetry breaking. TCNE thus enables concentration‐dependent tuning of graphene's electronic properties with

Principal Component‐Based Classification of Blazar Candidates of Uncertain Type in the 4FGL/LAT

open access: yesAstronomische Nachrichten, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We adopted principal component analysis (PCA), linear discriminant analysis (LDA), and support vector machines (SVM), to study classification for a sample of 2708 Fermi blazars: 1142 BL Lac objects (BLLs), 759 flat spectrum radio quasars (FSRQs), and 807 blazar candidates of uncertain type (BCUs).
