题目: Metasemantic Twin Earth and Advanced Conceivability
摘要：The talk begins with the case of the apparent possibility of a 'Metasemantic Twin Earth', with which our sentences may receive crazy yet consistent interpretations that are no less eligible than the non-crazy ones. According to David Chalmers, such Twin Earth is only prima facie, but not ideally, conceivable for a rational conceiver. But mightn't a rational conceiver have a different set of metasemantic ideals to strive for? Some recent scholars—most notably Shamik Dasgupta—see no reason to say no. Call this kind of conceivability 'advanced conceivability'. I aim to discuss and evaluate the implications of advanced conceivability: e.g., whether (or in which sense) it is arbitrary, whether (or in which sense) it can be used to derive dualism, etc.
