5 Preface is distinguished professor in the humanities, professor of philosophy, and professor of law at the University of Miami. She gained international acclaim for her work in philosophy of logic (especially nonclassical, fuzzy logics), her plea for the epistemological position of foundherentism, and her contributions to the philosophy of law. In numerous books and articles on logic, epistemology, philosophy of language, philosophy of science, and metaphysics as well as pragmatism, feminism, and philosophy of law, she has greatly influenced contemporary philosophy throughout the past 40 years. Haack has been awarded various honors and prizes, both for her research and teaching. In 2004, she was included in Peter J. King s 100 Philosophers: The Life and Work of the World s Greatest Thinkers, and in 2005 she was listed as one of the ten most important woman philosophers of all time. Haack s impact on contemporary philosophy, her professional renown, and the broad range of topics covered would have been reason enough to invite her to deliver the 17th Münster Lectures in Philosophy. Her eagerness to discuss her work and elaborate on its details and implications has commended her all the more. From the 6th 8th of November in 2013, the Department of Philosophy had the honor of welcoming her as their guest in Münster. Her public evening lecture The Fragmentation of Philosophy, the Road to Reintegration set the stage for a colloquium, which took place on the following 2 days. During the colloquium, groups of students and junior faculty of the Department of Philosophy in Münster presented papers on diverse aspects of Haack s philosophy some inquisitive, some slightly critical, but all of them well prepared after thorough occupation with Haack s work. Haack took the time to patiently explain her motivations, to comment constructively on ideas proposed, and to reply to the critical points that were raised. What ensued was a lively and stimulating philosophical exchange, which gave students and faculty an opportunity to profit from meeting a philosopher of international fame in a personal, nonhierarchical, and productive context. This, after all, is the idea at the very heart of the Münster Lectures in Philosophy. v

6 vi Preface All contributions to the Münster Lectures including the evening lecture, the students papers, and Haack s replies are contained in this volume, alongside her essay The World According to Innocent Realism: The One and the Many, the Real and the Imaginary, the Natural and the Social, which is here published in English for the first time. The editors would like to thank everybody involved in organizing the lecture and the colloquium and in preparing the publication, especially Stefan Klatt of the Centre for Advanced Study in Bioethics, Claudia Güstrau, Lars Kiesling, Sibille Mischer, Oliver R. Scholz, Tanja Uek otter, and Rebecca Walsh. Furthermore, we cordially thank Gertrud Grünkorn and academic publisher De Gruyter for their financial support, as well as Raphael Hüntelmann, whose publishing company Ontos has supported the Münster Lectures for many years. We are particularly grateful to Lucy Fleet and her colleagues at Springer for generously offering us to publish this and future volumes of the Münster Lectures and for helping us with the preparation of the manuscript. The students at Münster and our colleagues have done a wonderful job at preparing their contributions for the colloquium, and we wish to express our gratitude to each and every author. Last, and certainly not least, we wish to thank for her willingness to partake in this unique event, for her energy in preparing the evening lecture and the replies, and for her general cooperation. Without her, the event would not have been the success that it was. August 2015 Münster Julia F. G ohner Eva-Maria Jung
