Synopsis Order in Multiplicity by : Christopher Shields

Christopher Shields investigates and evaluates Aristotle's approach to questions about homonymy, characterizing the metaphysical and semantic commitments necessary to establish the homonymy of a given concept. Then, in a series of case-studies, Shields examines in detail some of Aristotle's principal applications of homonymy - to the body, sameness and oneness, life, goodness, and being. Shields's aim is not only to give a fuller understanding of Aristotle's methodology and to illuminate his specific doctrines in a variety of areas, but to show that this methodology remains fruitful today.

Synopsis Hegel and the Problem of Multiplicity by : Andrew Haas

What could the term multiplity mean for philosophy? Haas contends that modern understandings of the concept are either Aristotelian or Kantian. The Hegelian concept of multiplicity, Haas suggests, is opposed to both, or supersedes them.

Synopsis Twentieth-Century Multiplicity by : Daniel H. Borus

The book describes the ways in which American thinkers and artists in the first two decades of the twentieth century challenged notions that a single principle explained all relevant phenomena, opting instead for a pluralistic world in which many truths, goods, and beauties coexisted. It argues that the bracketing of the idea that all knowledge was integrated allowed for a new appreciation of the importance of context and contingency.
