DESCRIPTION:<p>All are welcome to attend this public talk at MIT<strong>!</strong><strong><br></strong></p>\n<p><strong><br></strong></p>\n<p><strong>Abstract</strong>: In this paper I provide a defense of modalism\, the view according to which primitive modality is needed in philosophical theorizing. After distinguishing among various forms of modalism and specifying the metaphysically deflationary version I favor\, I consider a number of arguments against modalism\, respond to them\, and offer a series of arguments for the view. I then consider logical pluralism\, the view according to which there is a plurality of logics\, several of which are adequate to any given domain. I then consider a number of arguments against logical pluralism\, respond to them\, and provide several arguments in support of the view. Since modalism plays a key role in these latter arguments\, I conclude that the combination of both modalism and logical pluralism provides an attractive\, integrated view.</p>\n\n
