Metaphysics and Epistemology Group (Tuesday - Week 1, HT25)

Abstract: "I present a new (formal) theory of presence according to which, roughly, to be present at a place is for it to have a delegate located at that place. One crucial feature of the theory is that something can be present at a place without thereby being located there. I then go on to apply such new theory to substantive philosophical cases which feature universals, social entities, persisting objects and omnipresent beings."
