	Guardian Unlimited Books \| News \| Obituary: David Lewis
		Lewis is most celebrated for his "modal realism", a theory which argues that possible worlds are not just a concept for explaining possibility and necessity, but as real as our own universe.
		Lewis expressed his esoteric ideas in brisk, sturdy, lucid prose, whether on paper or orally, but he was famously incapable of small talk.
		Lewis was astoundingly modest and unpompous for a successful philosopher, always ready to respond to criticism, and unfailingly generous to students.

	Assessing David Lewis' Materialism
		With regard to the latter point, I argue that Lewis’ endorsement of the "scientific worldview" is timid and restrained by an equally relevant endorsement of the "commonsensical worldview." In conclusion, I defend the idea that Lewis should be considered an "ontological pluralist," as this term is intended by the neopragmatist Michele Marsonet.
		As mentioned in the introduction, this element of Lewis’ way of philosophizing is relevant: it is meant to justify his aspirations to the reduction of the number and of the kinds of beings to be admitted in his fundamental ontology.
		Lewis has no sharp preclusion to existing alternatives, for ontology is a "work in progress" sensitive to the changes taking place in the human system of knowledge.

		Lewis often touted it as a virtue of reductionism that such a derivation seems possible, but Hall suggests that there will be problems with the details here.
		Lewis never took epistemology (at least informal epistemology) as seriously as he took metaphysics, philosophy of mind, or philosophy of language, and occasionally this shows up in the papers here.
		For example, Marian David has a thorough, and thoroughly convincing, response to Lewis's argument that the correspondence theory of truth is not a competitor to the redundancy theory of truth.

	Community Control or Statist Politics: A Reply to David Lewis (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-30)
		Lewis seems to think that councillors, elected on a local basis in a libertarian municipalist campaign, would function no differently from representatives who are elected to provincial and national legislative bodies.
		Lewis accuses me of wanting to "forever stamp out the spirituality that was central to all pre-hierarchical culture." We then learn that by disagreeing with his presumably well-informed version of native American spirituality, I am complicitous in (to use his garish language) the "Native culture euthanasia program" (read: the destruction of native cultures).
		Lewis seems to think that I favor the limitless production of frivolous commodities and a senseless vision of life that does not extend beyond the confines of a shopping mall, that I demand that the biosphere be torn up so that those who are now poor can have all the middle-class comforts of suburban life.

		Lewis then considers an objection to (D2a) that is very interesting from an Aristotelian point of view.
		Lewis, however, casts aspersions on appeal to any hidden factors here and simply denies that in such a situation it is either definitely true that e would have occurred without c or definitely true that e would not have occurred without c.

		David Lewis is probably best known among philosophers for making grand metaphysics and systematic theory building fashionable again.
		Lewis noted that the problem of chance could short-circuit the thesis, but was unable to complete his solution to the problem.
		Lewis' works were skillfully written and often included humorous content (his famous article on mad pain and Martian pain included a Martian who reacted to injury by inflating bladders in his feet) as well as references to science fiction (he lists Larry Niven among the works cited in On the Plurality of Worlds).

	Remarks at the Memorial Service for David Lewis
		David started his career looking for all the world like an empiricist in the tradition of Hume and Carnap; by the end of his career, it was clear that he was the great rationalist of twentieth century philosophy.
		David was the sort of empiricist who starts at the surface, but allows carefully constrained steps beyond it in the search for explanation.
		David did so much philosophy this way that I hope one day someone publishes a collection of his correspondence: maybe some of it could be set in that same typeface, which is the way I always imagine David's philosophical work.

	David Kellog Lewis
		Lewis' philosophical interests were broad, as evidenced by the contents of the five volumes of his collected papers published so far: ethics, politics, metaphysics, epistemology, philosophical logic, language -- he wrote on a vast range of subjects, from holes to worlds, from Anselm to Mill, from the mind to time travel.
		He was the ideal, the model philosopher; he's also (and this is a very different matter) widely regarded as being the best philosopher of his generation -- perhaps of the twentieth century.
		Lewis is perhaps best known for his modal realism.
