SUMMARY:Logic and Philosophy of Science Group Talk (Patrick Girard\, Auckland)
DESCRIPTION:The Logic and Philosophy of Science Group is pleased to welcome as guest speaker Patrick Girard\, an associate professor of Philosophy at the University of Auckland in New Zealand. Dr. Girard works in philosophy of logic\, metaphysics\, and philosophy of mathematics. \nTalk Title\nThe Frog and the Mouse Battle: Logic\, Politics\, and Justice \nTalk Abstract\nThe 1920s saw the rise of modern logic: Hilbert’s formalist programme\, Gödel’s theorems\, and Brouwer’s intuitionism offered competing visions for the foundations of mathematics. At the centre was a clash between Hilbert and Brouwer over the law of excluded middle—a dispute that turned political in the wake of WWI. It ended with Hilbert expelling Brouwer from the Mathematische Annalen\, prompting high-profile resignations\, including Einstein’s. While the episode had political dimensions\, it also reveals a form of epistemic injustice that is logical in nature. Drawing on my recent work in logic\, I’ll offer a fresh analysis of the logical injustice at the heart of the coup that ultimately ended Brouwer’s career. \nAbout the Logic and Philosophy of Science Group\nOne of six departmental Research Interest Groups\, the Logic and Philosophy of Science Group hosts talks on logic\, general philosophy of science\, and philosophy of the particular sciences\, as well as talks in allied areas such as formal epistemology\, decision theory\, and the metaphysics of science.

SUMMARY:Kant & Post-Kantian Philosophy Group Talk and Workshop (Robert Pippin\, Chicago)
DESCRIPTION:The Kant & Post-Kantian Philosophy Group is delighted to welcome Robert Pippin as its guest speaker. Dr. Pippin is the Evelyn Stefansson Nef Distinguished Service Professor in the Committee on Social Thought\, the Department of Philosophy\, and the College at the University of Chicago. He is the author of several books and articles on German idealism and later German philosophy\, including Kant’s Theory of Form; Hegel’s Idealism: The Satisfactions of Self-Consciousness; Modernism as a Philosophical Problem; and Idealism as Modernism: Hegelian Variations. He was twice an Alexander von Humboldt fellow\, is a winner of the Mellon Distinguished Achievement Award in the Humanities\, and was recently a fellow at the Wissenschaftskolleg zu Berlin. He is a fellow of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences and is a member of the American Philosophical Society. He is also a member of the German National Academy of Arts and Sciences. \nTalk Title\nHegel after Heidegger \nTalk Abstract\nMartin Heidegger claimed that German Idealism\, especially the thought of Hegel\, had brought to light a deficiency in the entire rationalist tradition of philosophy\, which\, when exposed as clearly as Hegel had\, meant that the tradition could no longer credibly continue. He went on to argue that the implications of this deficiency had spread far beyond academic philosophy\, were manifest in the daily life of the modern West\, contributing to a historical world dominated by the technological predation of nature\, conformism\, thoughtlessness and a degraded cultural life. The tradition\, he said\, had “culminated” in the thought of Hegel; that is\, the deficiency and its implications had finally become clearest in his system. The question raised in this lecture is whether Heidegger meant to charge that Hegel had simply neglected a question (“the meaning of being”) which he should have raised\, or whether that neglect renders suspect the many other issues Hegel raises. \nIn addition to this lecture\, Dr. Pippin will host an all-day workshop on September 27. The topic of the workshop will be his recent book The Culmination: Heidegger\, German Idealism\, and the Fate of Philosophy\, and it will feature comments by Nick Stang\, Tarek Dika\, and Dave Suarez\, with replies by Robert Pippin. \nThose interested in participating in the workshop on September 27 should email Nick Stang ahead of the event.\n \nThe Kant & Post-Kantian Philosophy Group is a a subgroup of the History of Philosophy Research Group\, which focuses on European philosophy in Kant and post-Kantian traditions.
