Metaphysical Narration, Science, and Symbolic Form
Review of Metaphysics 47 (1):115 - 132 (1993)
Abstract
THIS ESSAY ADDRESSES TWO QUESTIONS: Is the search for scientific truth a self-sufficient activity? or Does scientific right reasoning depend upon a form of truth-telling that lies beyond the limits of scientific investigation? Put differently, is there a sense of metaphysics as a form of human culture that is the embodiment of this general sense of truth-telling?Author's Profile
