On Schopenhauer's Debt to Spinoza1

European Journal of Philosophy, Volume 34, Issue 2, Page 656-672, June 2026.
Abstract Schopenhauer offers ‘nature is not divine but demonic’ as a direct rebuttal of Spinoza's pantheism, his identification of ‘nature’ with ‘God’. And so, one would think, he ought to have been immune to the ‘Spinozism’ that became, as Heine called it, ‘the unofficial religion’ of the age.

Aspect perception and rule‐following in Wittgenstein's Philosophical Investigations

Philosophical Investigations, Volume 49, Issue 1, Page 74-96, January 2026.
Abstract This paper aims to highlight a distinctive, projective, mode of aspect perception within Wittgenstein's philosophy that has gone underappreciated in the scholarly literature.
