SUMMARY:Metaphysics and Logic Seminar Matteo Nizzardo
DESCRIPTION:Title: On Numbers as Kinds \nAbstract: I discuss the neo-aristotelian ontology presented in Lowe (2006)\, drawing particular attention at Lowe’s notions of objects and pluralities\, and his conception of natural numbers as universals. I argue that Lowe’s treatment of numbers and pluralities is useful to those who believe that non-individual entities exist and can be counted. Furthermore\, I argue that Lowe’s framework points to a very natural interpretation of a logical language with the expressive resources to quantify over non-individuals.

SUMMARY:Language and Mind Seminar – “Quotative ‘Be Like'”
DESCRIPTION:Title: Quotative ‘Be Like’\n(joint work with Andreas Stokke (Uppsala))\nAbstract:  There are a variety of familiar ways of talking about our mental states and speech acts\, such as direct discourse (as in\, ‘Ellen said\, “I’m leaving now!”’)\, indirect discourse (as in\, ‘Ellen thought that she would leave’). DD and ID continue to raise difficult philosophical and linguistic issues; but if they are still not fully understood\, that is not for lack of trying: there are thousands of philosophical papers about belief and belief ascription\, and hundreds or thousands about other attitudes: desire\, knowledge\, thinking\, and so on.  By contrast\, one common way we characterise our own mental states and speech acts has entirely escaped philosophical attention: quotative ‘be like’ or QBL (as in\, ‘Ellen was like “I’m leaving now!”’). We argue that neglect of QBL has resulted in a significant gap in our understanding of our own minds and our ways of talking about them.  QBL is interesting because it is very common — corpus studies reveal that it is more common than ‘says’ or ‘thinks’ in many dialects of English\, and related constructions are common in other languages as well — and because (as we show) QBL functions very differently to DD and ID\, and in particular is not reducible to ’says’ or ’thinks’ ascriptions.  Showing that QBL is distinctive in this respect is the first aim of this paper; a second aim is to map out some of the space of theoretical options for explaining QBL.

SUMMARY:Conceptual Engineering Seminar | Sarah Sawyer (Sussex): “Kinds of concepts”
DESCRIPTION:Abstract. — In this paper I argue that concepts fall into distinct kinds according to such things as their direction of determination\, their modal range\, and the nature of their referents. Such properties determine a given concept’s eligibility for genuine revision. As a result\, different kinds of concepts require different treatment in the context of conceptual engineering. Understanding this allows us to identify a narrow range of conceptual engineering cases which are of special significance.\n\nZoom meeting ID: 857 3025 53 80\nZoom password: ACEW20 (Invite link)

SUMMARY:CEPPA Talk – Olúfẹ́mi O. Táíwò (Georgetown University)
DESCRIPTION:Title: ‘Being-in-the-Room: Epistemic Deference and Elite Capture’ \nAbstract: Standpoint epistemology refers to a set of contentions: that knowledge is socially situated\, that marginalized people have some positional advantages in gaining some forms of knowledge\, and that research programs ought to reflect these facts. These seem to me to be entirely unobjectionable\, and indeed to follow from any minimally plausible story about the epistemic consequences of social structure. Yet this theory is often the subject of controversy. I take the problem to be related to the norms of putting the theory into practice\, particularly their reliance on schedules of deference\, and considering the political consequences of this approach (elite capture) and also consequences I take to be morally corrosive. I propose an alternative\, which I call the “constructive” approach to giving standpoint epistemology practical expression\, and try to motivate adopting it.
