Rodrigo Nunes on “One or Two Melancholias? 1917, 1968 and the Question of Organisation”
@ Wolff Conference Room, D1103
Sep 13 @ 6:00 pm – 8:00 pm
This presentation weaves together two themes that have been recurrent in philosophical and political debates of recent years. The first is a revival of interest in Walter Benjamin’s concept of “leftwing melancholy” and the identification of melancholia as an intrinsic element of the left’s “structure of feeling” or desire; the second is the call for a return to the question of political organisation. By contrasting different accounts of left melancholia, I suggest that we might[...]

Debate: Do Split Brain Patients Have Two Minds?

Debate: Do Split Brain Patients Have Two Minds?
@ Jurow Lecture Hall, Silver Center
Sep 18 @ 5:00 pm – 7:00 pm
In split-brain patients, the cerebral hemispheres have been separated by severing the corpus collosum. These patients sometimes behave as if they have one mind and sometimes as if they have two. Do these patients have a single consciousness that is in some respects fragmented? Or does each hemisphere support a distinct experiencing subject with a separate mind?

Serene J. Khader on “Towards a Decolonial Feminist Universalism”

Serene J. Khader on “Towards a Decolonial Feminist Universalism”
@ Wolff Conference Room, D1103
Sep 20 @ 6:00 pm – 8:00 pm
I argue we can make progress in three contemporary debates about transnational feminisms by a) clarifying the normative commitments central to feminism and b) rethinking the role of normative ideals in transnational political practices. These debates concern the purported tension between taking seriously critiques of Western imperialism and retaining feminism’s status as a normative doctrine. Understanding feminism as opposition to sexist oppression unthethers feminism from commitments to controversial forms of individualism and antitraditionalism. Understanding transnational[...]

Many cognitive processes rely on the preservation of contents across mental transitions or processes. Inference, for example, is a certain sort of content preserving mental transition from premises to conclusions. Content preservation is also important in communicating the contents of perception for further processing and for the influence of desires and belief on action. But what is content preservation? …
