| The Philosophical Dictionary is a hypertext of
alphabetically arranged terms and ideas in
English or Dutch that
relate to philosophy.
The entries state what I thought when I
wrote them and are dated at the end. There
are many links and many interrelations,
and to understand all of it you must at
least have read all of it. Also, to
understand all of it may require some
knowledge of philosophy and logic, such as
can be acquired by reading some books
listed in Literature.
There is a
little more background in the following
sections:
Here are
three files with keyterms in the
Dictionary; with categories by which the
terms are classified; and with all terms
in the dictionary so far:
Also there
now is a quotations-server in Javascript,
with all of the code and all of the
quotations in the source:
I wish you
pleasant and instructive reading!
Please note
that this Philosophical Dictionary gives my
views and my stipulative
definitions how I wish to use
philosophical and other terms.

NB:
For the moment, the Philosophical Dictionary
is a little over seven years
young, and contains over 600 entries,
that also are not fully done.
This is expected to be a large work,
of years to come.
At
present it is an ongoing project of some
10 MB, that will start to be more or
less as I want it to be when it is
thrice as large, I expect.
Therefore,
the reader may be sure that for the
time being all entries into the
Philosophical Dictionary will be soon
revised or updated (for
example: provided with new links).
Also, all entries that have been made
can be expected to be extended,
sometimes by a lot of material.
So for
the moment, one thing is certain: All
the material in it for the time being is
transient, changeable, and to be
extended and corrected, if and when I
have the
health for it.
