Seeing as well. Detecting the edges of objects is not. Believing is a personal state. Seeing as well. Detecting is a sub-personal event or process. The personal/sub-personal distinction is intuitive. In recent papers\, some have argued that it is problematic. I argue that it is not. Two criticisms are that it is not principled (cf. Mason Westfall) and that it potentially stifles the work of cognitive scientists by misdescribing their practices (cf. Robert Rupert.) The personal/sub-personal distinction\, as applied to states\, is a special case of a distinction between the state something is in and the states its parts are in. Further commitments are not necessary and only come down the line. As a consequence\, one can both take it that there is such a distinction in cognitive science and that it puts no external constraint on the activity of cognitive scientists URL:/philevents/event/language-and-mind-seminar-brice-bantegnie/ LOCATION:Edgecliffe G03 CATEGORIES:Language and Mind Seminar END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Europe/London:20241015T150000 DTEND;TZID=Europe/London:20241015T170000 DTSTAMP:20260614T023700 CREATED:20240915T172500Z LAST-MODIFIED:20241013T185313Z UID:10002160-1729004400-1729011600@www.st-andrews.ac.uk SUMMARY:FPST Seminar: DESCRIPTION: URL:/philevents/event/fpst-seminar-20/ LOCATION:Edgecliffe G03 CATEGORIES:Feminist Philosophy and Social Theory END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Europe/London:20241015T150000 DTEND;TZID=Europe/London:20241015T170000 DTSTAMP:20260614T023700 CREATED:20241014T185311Z LAST-MODIFIED:20241015T185309Z UID:10002209-1729004400-1729011600@www.st-andrews.ac.uk SUMMARY:FPST Seminar: Naomi Kachani (58Թ) – In-person DESCRIPTION:Title: Feminism and Multiculturalism: Measuring Gendered Cultural Harms \nAbstract: Deeply ingrained in the multiculturalism versus feminism debate is the idea that certain minority practices are more deserving of attention and criticism for their misogynistic undertones than other (liberal) practices. In this talk\, I’ll consider one of the potential reasons for this asymmetrical focus on minorities. Such argument maintains that many minority cultural practices are simply more harmful to women than their Western counterparts. I’ll go over how the ‘harm argument’ is embedded in the literature\, and then assess its conduciveness. Ultimately\, I’ll argue the ‘harm argument’ fails through its ill-suited selective points of comparisons\, its lack of contextual awareness\, and through its heavy reliance on ‘Gender Orientalist’ postulations.

IBS is a novel approach to proof-theoretic semantics (PTS) that emphasises Wittgenstein’s conception of ‘meaning as use’\, alongside Gentzen’s idea of operational rules as connective definitions. The core idea of IBS is to explore how proof rules determine the way we use connectives. \nTo implement this idea\, I analyse all rule parameters that affect connective usage by proving global harmony in minimal derivability relations. This method allows me to define IBS for any connective definable in two-dimensional sequent calculi. The findings offer a meaning-theoretic explanation for the co-determination effects recently observed by Dicher and offer a fresh perspective on the relationships between connectives and their logics. \nUltimately\, IBS opens a new avenue for PTS\, providing a fine-grained local analysis of connective use and meaning\, with the potential to evolve our understanding of the connectives.

Can a person without friends achieve well-being? There is long-standing disagreement about the correct answers to these questions. I offer a diagnosis of the debate between those who answer “no” (objectivists about well-being) and those who answer “yes” (subjectivists about well-being). I suggest that the reason people are divided about this question is that the opposing answers represent two different perspectives on well-being that answer to two different sets of practical interests. Given this diagnosis\, the cure is to acknowledge the importance of both perspectives. I discuss different ways of doing this. \nLocation: online & livestreamed from Edgecliffe G03 URL:/philevents/event/ceppa-talk-online-valerie-tiberius-minnesota/ LOCATION:Edgecliffe 104 CATEGORIES:CEPPA Talk END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
