Contents of box 7 (mainly papers/drafts)


  • Notes on a new edition of 'Papers on Time and Tense'. HWU (9 p.). 1969. <info>
  • 'A History of Scottish Theology'. HWU (154 pages). 1949. <info>
  • 'Modality, Quantification and Time'. TU (15 p.). Ca. 1958.
The paper is marked CUC (Canterbury University College). It is later than 1954 (latest reference is to Ryle's 'Dilemmas', 1954) and probably from the period 1957–58. (See also 1956b for thematical overlaps.)

  • Sense and Sensibilia. HWU (11p.). 1962/63. <info>
  • Some Dogmas in the Philosophy of Mind. HWU (4 p.). Ca. 1968. <info>
  • Some Free Thinking about Time. T (6 p.). ORIG 1996a. <abstract>
  • A Statement of Temporal Realism. T (4 p.) ORIG 1996b. <info>
  • Things and Stuff. T (3 p.). ORIG 1976b (pp. 181-186). <info>
  • What is Logic. T (10p.). ORIG 1976b.
Two versions are found, respectively HW (13 p.) and T (10 p.).
Original DATE: Ca. 1962.
In 1976b, Geach and Kenny (implicitly) date this paper as 1962 (it occurs between the papers 'Nonentities' 1962b and 'Some Problems of Self-reference in John Buridan' 1962i). (It may be noted that 'Nonentities' was according to [Kenny 1970, p. 341] in fact written in 1955. Nevertheless, the position of 'What is Logic' in 1976b must indicate that Geach and Kenny estimate this paper to have been written in 1962.)

A folder of papers on theology
Quite likely these items were meant to be included as (or reworked for) parts of ANP's project of writing a History of Scottish theology (this has been suggested by Mary Prior, and would certainly be reasonable on grounds of their contents).
The folder contains the following items:
  • Robert Barclay: Quaker or Calvinist? TU (15 p.). Ca. 1941. <abstract>
  • From Paisley to Princeton. TU (15 p.). Ca. 1940. <abstract>
  • Calvinism as a Moral Revolution. TU (8 p.). Ca. 1940. <abstract>
  • An Edinburgh Principal of the Eighteenth Century. TU (14 p.). DATE? (Early). <abstract>
  • Notes on the Westminster Confession and the proposed revision. TU (2p.) HWU (3 p.). 1940. <abstract>
  • The Logic of Calvinism. HWU (26 p.). Ca. 1940?. <abstract>
  • Faith, Unbelief and Evil. TU (19 p.) Ca. 1943. <abstract>
  • A Modernist Stocktaking. TU (6 p.). Ca. 1940. <abstract>
  • Of God's Plan and Purpose. HW (10 p.). Ca. 1940?. <info> 
  • Diary entry dated 25 March, 1942. HWU (7 p.). <info>

Further papers in Box 7:
  • (These are not mentioned in the present overview in the Bodleian Library's list of the contents of the boxes).
  • The Notion of the Present. T (8 p.). HW (15 p.). ORIG 1970b.
  • Occurring and Following. TU (13 p.). Ca. 1958.
The paper is marked CUC (Canterbury University College), and is evidently after 'Time and Modality' 1957a. This dates it with certainty between 1957-58.

See Robert Barclay: Quaker or Calvinist?/box 7; the two manuscripts share a (verbatim) identical content, and differ only with respect to title. However, ANP has added a few comments/corrections, different for each manuscript version.
