Pictorial History Update: Multiple Realization

Ted Poston has nominated John Travolta for Multiple Realization






Pictorial History Update: Mereology

Matthew Mullins has nominated John Wayne Bobbit to represent mereology.

Illustrated History of Recent Philosophical Concepts


Supervenience: Courtney Love
She was really hot in the 90's but in the end was just used by too many people for too many things.

Plural Quantification: Scarlett Johanson
Born in 1984. Pretty new on the scene, but already very hot and with the feel of a classic.

Counterpart Theory: Hulk Hogan
Very powerful, but a little unstable (perhaps way too powerful).

Rigid Designator: Harrison Ford
He made is major public debut in the early 70's and remains a classic.

Currently accepting nominations for:
