Bilattices and Strict Tolerant Logics (Melvin Fitting)

Bilattices and Strict Tolerant Logics (Melvin Fitting)
@ CUNY Grad Center, 7314
Feb 4 @ 4:15 pm – 6:15 pm
Strict/tolerant logic is a formally defined logic that has the same consequence relation as classical logic, though it differs from classical logic at the metaconsequence level. Specifically, it does not satisfy a cut rule. It has been recommended for use in work on theories of truth because it avoids some objectionable features arising from the use of classical logic. Here we are not interested in applications, but in the formal details themselves. We show that[...]

RESCHEDULED: The variety of scientism and the limits of science, Massimo Pigliucci (CUNY)
@ CUNY Grad Center, 5307
Feb 5 @ 4:30 pm – 6:30 pm
Massimo Pigliucci’s talk has been rescheduled, for personal reasons outside of his control. It will be rescheduled for a later date: here. Science is by far the most powerful approach to the investigation of the natural world ever devised. Still, it has limits, and there are many areas and questions where the scientific approach is ill suited, or at best provides only pertinent information rather than full answers. The denial of this modest attitude about[...]

Stages in Spacetime: The Languages of Persistence

Stages in Spacetime: The Languages of Persistence
@ CUNY Grad Center, 7314
Feb 11 @ 4:15 pm – 6:15 pm
Motivated by considerations from relativity theory, philosophers have recently contended that talk about an object’s existence in time should not be taken as fundamental, but rather analysed in the language of a formal theory of location in spacetime. This suggestion has important consequences for the debate about persistence: how do ordinary objects exist at different times? It has triggered a program of recovery whereby the main views from the classical debate, previously expressed using the language of[...]

Identity, Indeterminacy, and Supervaluationism- Achille Varzi (Columbia)

Identity, Indeterminacy, and Supervaluationism- Achille Varzi (Columbia)
@ CUNY Grad Center, 7314
Feb 25 @ 4:15 pm – 6:15 pm
I am a friend of supervaluationism. A statement lacks a determinate truth value if, and only if, it comes out true on some admissible precisifications of the relevant vocabulary and false on others. In this talk I want to focus on the special cases of identity statements. There is, I think, a potentially devastating objection that can be raised against the supervaluationist treatment of such statements—in fact two objections. Luckily, both can be resisted. But[...]
