SUMMARY:Kant & Post-Kantian German Philosophy Group Talk (Samantha Matherne Harvard)
DESCRIPTION:The newly established Kant & Post-Kantian German Philosophy Research Interest Group is pleased to welcome as a speaker Samantha Matherne\, an assistant professor in the Department of Philosophy at Harvard University. She works primarily in the history of philosophy\, focusing on Immanuel Kant and his influence on Post-Kantian traditions\, especially phenomenology and neo-Kantianism. Of special interest to her is how figures in these traditions conceive of the interrelations between perception and aesthetics. \nJoin the event at: \nhttps://utoronto.zoom.us/j/97792966681\n\nMeeting ID: 977 9296 6681\nPasscode: 857825 \nPlease note there has been a slight time change to the event. It is now taking place 12-2PM. \nTalk Title\nExhibition and the Transcendental Conditions of Experience \n  \nThe paper will be made available to those interested a week in advance of the online lecture. If you have questions about this talk\, please contact David Suarez. \nThe Kant & Post-Kantian German Idealism Group is a a subgroup of the History of Philosophy Research Group\, which focuses on European philosophy in Kant and post-Kantian traditions.

SUMMARY:Language\, Epistemology\, Metaphysics\, and Mind Research Interest Group Talk (Ginger Schulteis\, Chicago)
DESCRIPTION:The Language\, Epistemology\, Metaphysics\, and Mind Research Group welcomes Ginger Schultheis\, an assistant professor in the Department of Philosophy at University of Chicago. Most of Dr. Schultheis’s research is in epistemology\, with a particular interest in belief. She has worked on the relationship between belief and credence\, on whether epistemic rationality is permissive\, whether we can believe at will\, and whether it can be rational to have imprecise credences. She also has research interests in formal semantics\, especially the semantics of modals and counterfactuals. \nJoin the talk at: \nhttps://utoronto.zoom.us/j/99760788601 \nTalk Title\nCounterfactual Probability \nTalk Abstract\nStalnaker’s Thesis about indicative conditionals is\, roughly\, that the probability one ought to assign to an indicative conditional equals the probability that one ought to assign to its consequent conditional on its antecedent. The thesis seems right. If you draw a card from a standard 52-card deck\, how confident are you that the card is a diamond if it’s a red card? To answer this\, you calculate the proportion of red cards that are diamonds—that is\, you calculate the probability of drawing a diamond conditional on drawing a red card. \n\nSkyrms’s Thesis about counterfactual conditionals is\, roughly\, that the probability that one ought to assign to a counterfactual equals one’s rational expectation of the chance\, at a relevant past time\, of its consequent conditional on its antecedent. This thesis also seems right. If you decide not to enter a 100-ticket lottery\, how confident are you that you would have won had you bought a ticket? To answer this\, you calculate the prior chance—that is\, the chance just before your decision not to buy a ticket—of winning conditional on entering the lottery. In this talk\, I develop a neo-Stalnakerian\, uniform theory of conditionals that allows us to derive a plausible\, context-sensitive version of Skyrms’s Thesis from a plausible\, context-sensitive version of Stalnaker’s Thesis\, together with David Lewis’s Principal Principle.\n  \nAbout the Language\, Epistemology\, Metaphysics and Mind Research Group\nOne of six departmental research interest groups\, the Language\, Epistemology\, Metaphysics and Mind Group undertakes research in philosophy of mind\, philosophy of cognitive science\, traditional and formal epistemology\, metaphysics\, and philosophy of language.
