Journal Article
Two Ships of Theseus
2024
Overview
Based on a large cross-cultural study, David Rose et al. (in: Lombrozo et al. (eds) Oxford studies in experimental philosophy, Vol. 3, Oxford University Press, Oxford, pp. 158–174, 2020) argue that the Ship of Theseus story is a genuine puzzle in the sense that people who consider it feel inclined to assert two prima facie inconsistent propositions (
Ambivalence
). In response, Marta Campdelacreu et al. (Dialectica 74(3):551–559, 2020) argue that the data reported by Rose et al. (2020) fail to support
Ambivalence
. Namely, the data show sharp
interpersonal
disagreement among different readers of the Ship of Theseus story, but they fail to demonstrate an
intrapersonal
conflict or indecision. Should
intrapersonal Ambivalence
be demonstrated, this, according to Campdelacreu et al. (2020), would be a good indicator of the presence of a puzzle. Here, I provide empirical evidence for
intrapersonal Ambivalence
about the Ship of Theseus story.
