摘要

摘要:如果不存在具有侦探性质的物体，那么“福尔摩斯是侦探”的主张是否成立?他是一个虚构的人物，他真的不存在吗?我的答案是基于亚历克修斯·梅农的客体理论。与其他迈农主义者相反，我认为使用其他可能世界会带来本体论问题，存在不是物体的属性。因为我们只通过一些而不是全部的属性来思考对象，所以不完整对象的功能是辅助的。因此，福尔摩斯既是侦探又是虚构人物，但又不存在。

Don't Lie to Me about Fictional Characters: Meinongian Incomplete Objects to the Rescue of Truth in Fiction

Abstract:Can the claim "Sherlock Holmes is a detective" be true if no object exists that has this property? Is it true that he is a fictional character and that he does not exist? My answers are based on Alexius Meinong's theory of objects. In contrast to other Meinongians, I argue that employing other possible worlds poses ontological problems and that existence is not a property of objects. Since we think of objects by means of only some, but not all, of their properties, incomplete objects function as auxiliaries. Holmes can thus be both, detective and fictional character, while not existing.

期刊介绍： For more than a quarter century, Philosophy and Literature has explored the dialogue between literary and philosophical studies. The journal offers a constant source of fresh, stimulating ideas in the aesthetics of literature, theory of criticism, philosophical interpretation of literature, and literary treatment of philosophy. Philosophy and Literature challenges the cant and pretensions of academic priesthoods by publishing an assortment of lively, wide-ranging essays, notes, and reviews that are written in clear, jargon-free prose. In his regular column, editor Denis Dutton targets the fashions and inanities of contemporary intellectual life.
