The Nature of Representation. David Papineau (King’s College London & CUNY)
@ CUNY Grad Center, rm 5307
Mar 3 @ 6:30 pm – 8:30 pm
Teleosemantics analyses representation in terms of evolutionary history. A standard objection is that swampman’s lack of evolutionary history doesn’t stop him representing. I have responded that teleosematics is an a posteriori thesis and so no more threatened by imaginary swampmen than water = H2O is threatened by XYZ. Peter Schulte has retorted that H2O may be the essence of water but evolutionary history isn’t the essence of representation. This talk will argue that, on a[...]

Zōē, Politics, and Human Animality: Aristotle contra Agamben. Sara Brill
@ Wolff Conference Room, D1103
