Mankind’s Relationship with the Environment in Jeff VanderMeer’s Annihilation by Hossein Mohseni

“…The present study believes that the various aspects of this shattering gives us a glimpse of the kind of relationship we could have with the environment in the Anthropocene, the human epoch. By utilizing the theoretical concepts in key secondary sources – such as Pieter Vermeulen’s Literature and the Anthropocene (2020) and Benjamin Robertson’s None of This Is Normal: The Fiction of Jeff VanderMeer (2018) – the study identifies that various demarcational means fail to fulfill their binary making function due to the vastness and unmappable nature of environments such as Area X. …”

An expressivist response to the infinite regress of interpretation argument against legal interpretivism by Michał Wieczorkowski

“…To counter this argument, the paper employs the division of linguistic labour thesis, which holds that the meaning of interpretive rules depends on what legal experts mean by them. Additionally, it utilizes a sceptical solution to the rule-following problem, suggesting that the function of meaning ascriptions is expressive rather than descriptive, which implies that meaning ascriptions do not require any foundational justifiers. …”
