Nonexistence is ubiquitous, yet mysterious. This volume explores some of the most puzzling questions about non-being and nonexistence, and offers answers from diverse philosophical perspectives. The contributors draw on analytic, continental, Buddhist, and Jewish philosophical traditions, and the topics range from metaphysics to ethics, from philosophy of science to philosophy of language, and beyond.
Non-Being in Ancient Thought
Non-Being in Ancient Thought is the first book-length study of the concept of non-being in ancient philosophy. Dmitri Nikulin argues that non-being is a central concept in philosophy, but has been neglected for far too long. He demonstrates that non-being is central for the constitution and understanding of being: without non-being, being can neither be nor thought. The philosophical investigation of non-being is therefore necessary for the understanding of being and crucial for reappraising its place in philosophy.
