I mean for the category to include the use of  telescopes\, hearing aids\, sensory substitution devices\, and also fuel and other gauges\, perhaps even psychedelic drugs and virtual or augmented reality. I presume that prosthetic perception can give us knowledge and justified belief—indeed\, this is part of what distinguishes them from “sensory engineering” more generally. Here I want to explore questions of how this knowledge is like or unlike the knowledge associated with ordinary perception. In particular\, I’m interested in two questions about the directness of prosthetic perception: (a) does it provide new knowledge/justification by allowing us to perceive (literally see/hear/etc.) things (objects/properties/events/etc.) that we couldn’t otherwise? And (b) is prosthetic perception inferential in a way that ordinary perception is not? I will also be asking whether and how these two questions are related\, as the answer to the second might well be constrained by the answer to the first. My discussion will be framed in terms of Dretske’s seminal (1969) discussion of nonepistemic\, primary epistemic\, and secondary epistemic seeing\, but also in terms of inferentialism and presumptivism from the recent testimony debate.

But this is a recent development\, and still an unevenly distributed one. There are still many philosophers\, and even many departments\, who view feminist philosophy with suspicion\, considering it to be “not really philosophy”. This discussion will explore the period during which feminist philosophers worked to establish feminist philosophy in philosophy departments\, with varying degrees of success \nThe discussion has two starting points: (1) Jennifer Saul’s review of Louise Antony’s Only Natural and (2) Taking Root\, a work in progress edited by Matthew Cull\, Katharine Jenkins\, and Jennifer Saul\, which consists of articles by and interviews with the feminist philosophers who worked to establish the field. Jessica Brown\, Matthew Cull\, Jade Fletcher\, and Jennifer Saul will discuss themes and questions which emerge from this work\, before opening up the discussion to the audience.
