SUMMARY:Language and Mind seminar: Roy Sorensen (University of 58�Թ� and UT Austin)
DESCRIPTION:Title: Kant risk a lie!\n\nAbstract: Immanuel Kant says\, “lying is the chief sin against others\, alongside robbery\, murder and stuproviolatio”. Kant never risks robbery\, murder\, or rape. But Kant does risk telling intentionally deceptive falsehoods. Instead of being a man a few words\, Kant is a man of three million words. Equally revealing is the scale of Augustine’s corpus: He wrote five million words before he died in 403 at age 75. Augustine was surpassed by Thomas Aquinas: eight million words before reporting a divine revelation to stop writing\, a few months before his death in 1274 at age 48. Each of these three proponents of `Never lie’ take some steps to lower the risk of lying. But their precautions are at the same scale as those who have an average aversion to lying. Accordingly\, all of those famed for their absolute opposition to lying drastically overstate the degree to which they oppose lying.

SUMMARY:FPST Seminar – Kate Manne (Cornell University) [online only]
DESCRIPTION:Title: The Authority of Hunger \nAbstract: In this talk\, I canvass moral considerations that suggest that hunger is morally authoritative. What’s more\, trying to circumvent our hunger via current surgical and pharmaceutical technologies is risky\, unpleasant\, and often ineffective. I conclude by considering the case for avoiding even “silver bullet” appetite suppressants\, for the sake of avoiding bodily self-alienation\, enjoying the pleasure and sense of community that comes from satisfying our hunger (often in the company of loved ones)\, and also for the sake of resisting the oppressive norms of fatphobia.

SUMMARY:Metaphysics and Logic Seminar: Zoé McConaughey (University of Lille)
DESCRIPTION:Title: History of logic as a tool for exploring the plurality of logical frameworks \nAbstract: \nI will outline another type of logical pluralism than the one now famously proposed by Beall and Restall (2006). I will argue that in addition to paying attention to particular logics\, such as classical\, intuitionnistic\, relevance logics\, etc.\, it is important to study the different frameworks in which these particular logics are expressed\, such a model-theoretic\, proof-theoretic\, or game-theoretic frameworks. This provides a different kind of logical pluralism\, namely a pluralism for logical frameworks. It is a dimension to take into account when studying logics from different cultures\, which should be of particular interest to feminist or decolonial approaches to logic\, but also when studying logics from different times\, and I will focus on this point\, taking Aristotle’s logic as a case study.\nBy comparing different modern formalizations of Aristotle’s assertoric syllogistic\, I will highlight the fact that the choice of logical framework injects within a particular logic (syllogistic in this case) the basic principles constitutive of this framework. In this fashion\, an uncritical formalization of an ancient logic risks injecting in the ancient texts the modern logician’s preconceptions regarding what logic is\, inherited from their preferred logical framework. I will present the dialogical reconstruction of syllogistic I worked out in my PhD dissertation (2021) in order to show that different logical paradigms are embedded in logical frameworks\, and can completely change the meaning of logic\, even when the logical result stay the same.

SUMMARY:Epistemology Seminar: Jade Fletcher (58�Թ�)
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Jade Fletcher (58�Թ�) \nPractices\, Normativity\, and Ideological Construction: Conceptualizing Epistemic (In)Justice \nThe aim of this exploratory paper is to put into dialogue two different threads in contemporary social philosophy. Charles Mills made a helpful interjection into the epistemic injustice literature when he suggested that the concept of ideology is valuable for analytic epistemologists. Sally Haslanger has developed a metaphysics which captures how ethically pernicious ideologies can construct unjust social realities. In this paper I want to explore how this metaphysics of the social world might complicate our understanding of the nature of epistemic injustice\, and consequently our conception of the demands of epistemic justice. This is to accept Mills’ invitation to take more seriously the explanatory potency of ideology when theorising epistemic injustice\, but\, following Haslanger\, I understand ideologies to be metaphysically productive. I argue that this metaphysical reframing brings to light a potentially misguided theoretical orientation that pervades the epistemic injustice literature.

SUMMARY:CANCELLED CEPPA Talk (in person) –  Victor Tadros (University of Warwick)
DESCRIPTION:Title: Consent\, Intent\, and Communication \nWhat is consent? I will assume that it is a normative power – a power to alter rights and duties directly. If this is right\, how is consent exercised? I will argue that consent is exercised through the execution of intentions to alter practical reasoning. Successful communication is not needed for valid consent. Even an attempt to communicate is not needed (though it is the central way of consenting). What is needed is an intention that the consentee understands that their practical reasoning is altered – their understanding that they are permitted to do what the consenter consents to. More precisely\, I defend: \nPermissive Intentions: X consents to Y aing where they execute their intention permit Y to a by intending that Y understands that X has permitted Y to a. \nThis View contrasts with familiar alternative views in four ways. \nFirst\, consent is concerned with altering the consentee’s practical reasoning\, and not just with altering the normative status of the consentee’s conduct. So\, a person cannot give consent where they believe that altering the consentee’s practical reasoning is impossible\, even where they wish the normative status of the target’s conduct to be altered. This contrasts with pure mentalist views that consent can be given just by having a mental state or performing a mental action without attempting to alter the consentee’s practical reasoning. Second\, consent can be given without external behaviour that is sufficient to give the consentee grounds to conclude that the consenter has permissive intentions. Consenters can try but fail to give others evidence of their intentions. This contrasts with one kind of externalist view that external evidence or signs of permissive intentions are necessary for consent. Third\, consent is given only if the consenter intends to permit the consentee’s conduct. This contrasts with another kind of externalist view that external evidence or signs of permissive intentions are sufficient for consent. Fourth\, consenters necessarily intend to permit consentees’ conduct. It is insufficient for consent that a person intends the recipient of their communication to believe that they intend to permit them to act. A person can pretend to consent by communicating that they intend to permit an act without actually intending to permit it. And sometimes this might result in the consenter forfeiting a right against the consentee acting. But consent is absent. This contrasts with the view that intending to communicate that one has permissive intentions is sufficient for consent whether or not the consenter has these intentions. \nLocation: Edgecliffe G03
