J. R. Lucas’ Indeterminism and Temporal Realism
TODAY IN PHILOSOPHY OF HISTORY: J. R. Lucas’ Indeterminism and Temporal Realism
Wednesday 18 June 2025 is the 96th anniversary of the birth of John Randolph Lucas (18 June 1929 – 05 April 2020), better known to posterity as J. R. Lucas, who was born in Guildford in Surrey, on the outskirts of London, on this date in 1929.
Lucas stands within the tradition of analytical philosophy, but he brought theological interests to his philosophical work that distinguished his views from the prevailing naturalism of his time. He wrote extensively on the philosophy of time and its relation, through Gödel’s incompleteness theorems, to the philosophy of mind. These interests in turn suggest perspectives on the philosophy of history that engage with fundamental metaphysical questions.
