Abstract:
G. E. M. Anscombe's work is seminal to action theory. Her major work in this
area, Intention, first published in 1957, has been very influential in shaping the
modern debate on issues such as the nature of action, the status of folk psychology,
the relation between reasons and causes and so on. Yet to my mind no major scholarly
analysis of her philosophy of action has been thus far undertaken.
