SUMMARY:CEPPA Talk (in person) – Eric Martin (Baylor)
DESCRIPTION:Location: Edgecliffe G03 \nTitle: Scientism and Humanities Education \nAbstract: In this talk I discuss a pedagogical implication of scientism. Because scientism elevates science and derogates what is deemed non-scientific\, the arts and humanities become\, on such a view\, less valuable parts of university curricula. I survey some of the current data on declining study of the humanities and explain how scientism may contribute to a trend disparaging the arts and humanities\, suggesting some problems with this view.

SUMMARY:CEPPA Talk (in person) – Guy Fletcher (Edinburgh)
DESCRIPTION:Location: Edgecliffe G03 \nTitle: All’s Well that Ends Well? \nAbstract: Distinguish how well someone’s life is going at a particular point — their momentary well-being — from how well their life went as a whole\, their lifetime well-being. How are these related? \nThe simplest answer is that lifetime well-being is just aggregate momentary well-being. Theories that deny this are forms of holism about lifetime well-being. Recent discussions of holism\, inspired by David Velleman\, have focused mainly on one particular species of it\, the so-called “shape of a life” hypothesis. This is the claim that having an “uphill” distribution of momentary well-being contributes to lifetime well-being and does so over and above the instrumental effects that such a distribution might have upon momentary well-being. In this paper I discuss the strengths and weaknesses of the shape of a life hypothesis before introducing an alternative view\, one which avoids those weaknesses\, and argue for its independent plausibility.
