Having in earlier works elaborated his metaphysics of panenmentalism--which posits that all that exists is comprised within the mental- possible and thus, the actual, that which physically exists, is merely a part of the whole of existence, which is the realm of all pure possibilities (although no two possibilities can be indiscernible or identical)--Gilead (philosophy, U. of Haifa) here explores the leitmotif of necessity and truthful fictions within this metaphysics. Truthful fictions, he argues, allow for the detection of meaningful possibilities as well as their necessary relationality. He particularly has in mind the contribution of fictions and myths to the discovery of psychical possibilities and meanings. (2009 Ringgold, Inc., Portland, OR)
