DESCRIPTION:<p>Abstract: It is a philosophical commonplace that logic and metaphysics have been closely related disciplines &ldquo\;from the beginning.&rdquo\; &nbsp\;The close relationship has survived\, and indeed thrived\, throughout the rapid evolution and diversification of logic over the past 150 years&mdash\;including through rocky stages where logic was thought to be the key to rubbing out metaphysics altogether. While keeping formal details to a minimum\, I will focus not on attempts to <em>eliminate</em> metaphysics\, but on the suggestion that the tools of formal logic allow us to <em>illuminate</em> our metaphysical commitments. I will suggest that certain results in some non-classical logics have not yet received due consideration in the metaphysics literature. They yield a more nuanced picture of our metaphysical commitments\, and thereby also a more nuanced picture of what is real\, what is not\, and what the other options are.&nbsp\;</p>
