SUMMARY:2026 Jerome S. Simon Memorial Lectures (Barbara Vetter\, Freie Universität Berlin)
DESCRIPTION:We are pleased to announce Barbara Vetter as our esteemed speaker for the 2026 Jerome S. Simon Memorial Lectures. Dr. Vetter is a professor of theoretical philosophy at Freie Universität Berlin\, and co-director of the “Human Abilities” project (www.human-abilities.de). Her work focuses on the metaphysics and epistemology of modal properties — dispositions\, abilities\, and so on — and their role in the metaphysics and epistemology of modality. She published Potentiality: From Dispositions to Modality with the Oxford University Press in 2015. In 2026\, she received a Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz prize.  Dr. Vetter is currently working on a book that develops an agency-based approach to the epistemology of modality. \nThe title of the series is “Modal Knowledge in Action.” \nLecture 1: Introducing agentive modality\nLecture 2: Agentive modal knowledge\nLecture 3: An action-first epistemology of modality \nMore information on the three lectures to follow.

SUMMARY:Bringing Quine and Lewis Back Together
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Barry Loewer (Rutgers) \nThis talk examines connections between Quine’s epistemology of science and Lewis’ metaphysics of science and their different conceptions of naturalness. I develop a metaphysical account of nomological modalities and fundamental properties Lewisian in spirit but dispensing with his possible worlds and his version of naturalness in favor of probabilities and a Quinean notion of naturalness. This account\, called “the Package Deal Account of laws and chances” (PDA)\, is constructed out of Quine’s epistemology of science. The result is an account of the metaphysics of laws and other nomological modalities that combines features of Quines’ epistemology and Lewis’ physics and brings their views closer together.

SUMMARY:Global Philosophy Research Interest Group Talk (Martin Adam\, University of Victoria)
DESCRIPTION:The Global Philosophy Research Interest Group is delighted to welcome as guest speaker Martin Adam\, an associate professor in the Department of Pacific and Asian Studies at the University of Victoria. His work is centered on Indian Buddhism and Buddhist Ethics\, with more general interests in other south Asian religious traditions and western Philosophy. He received my PhD from McGill University in 2003\, having spent extended stays at institutions in India\, Nepal\, and Switzerland. \nTalk Title\nBuddhist Phenomenology and the Question of AI Agency \nTalk Abstract\nAgency is only one among the many attributes of human consciousness whose replication is being actively pursued in the race to develop artificial general intelligence. Work towards its achievement is handicapped by a lack of agreement as to its definition. The present article examines the idea of agency\, inquiring in particular about that element of human agency in virtue of which we are sometimes able to say that we act freely. Part of the experience of being a human agent consists in the fact that we sometimes feel free in acting and sometimes feel unfree. Here\, our discussion will be trained on the psychological basis of this aspect of our experience of free agency\, irrespective of the philosophical question of whether we ever actually are “truly” free in a metaphysical sense. The analysis proceeds with an eye towards assessing the possibility of attributing agency to an artificially created intelligence. Following an ordinary language account of how we tend to speak and think about free agency\, I examine what the tradition of Theravāda Buddhist Abhidhamma has to contribute on this topic—finding a number of remarkable parallels. The article concludes with a consideration of whether from an Abhidhammic perspective it might ever make sense to attribute free agency to a created machine intelligence.

SUMMARY:Language\, Epistemology\, Metaphysics\, and Mind Research Interest Group (Adam Pautz\, Brown)
DESCRIPTION:The Language\, Epistemology\, Metaphysics\, and Mind Research Interest Group is delighted to welcome as guest speaker Adam Pautz\, a professor in the Department of Philosophy at Brown University. His research is about consciousness and its place in nature\, the idea that all facts are grounded in physical facts\, and the issue of whether things are the way they appear. He tries to make progress on some of the traditional “big questions” about mind and world by using recent science as well a priori methods. \nPautz’s current research project is a “consciousness-first” program in the philosophy of mind. The idea is that conscious acquaintance is not something that can be reductively explained in other terms (e. g. representation plus cognitive or rational access); rather it must be taken as a starting point from which to explain other things (cognition\, rationality\, value). The resulting view has some similarities to Bertrand Russell’s early view about the foundational role of acquaintance. \nTalk Title\nAcquaintance and the Distance Problem about Qualities \nTalk Abstract\nThe qualities presented in experience determine what the experience is like. When you experience a quality — the apparent redness of a tomato\, say\, or the scent of a rose — a long causal chain runs from the external object to your brain. Reductive physicalists disagree about where in this chain the quality lies: whether it is a distal element (as phenomenal externalists think) or some proximal step in the neural process (as phenomenal internalists think). Wherever they locate it\, they face a meta-semantic problem: how do the purely physical facts determine that our thought and talk about qualia latch onto that precise step rather than any other? I argue that the most promising solution to this kind of problem appeals to acquaintance — but that it sits uneasily with reductive physicalism.

SUMMARY:History of Philosophy Research Group Talk (Bridger Ehli\, IU-Bloomington)
DESCRIPTION:The History of Modern Philosophy Group is pleased to welcome as its guest speaker Bridger Ehli\, an assistant professor in the Department of Philosophy at the University of Indiana – Bloomington. His research concerns themes in epistemology\, metaphysics\, and the philosophy of mind in early modern European philosophy. He is especially interested in early modern discussions of skepticism\, especially as they relate to questions about mental representation\, concepts\, and the psychology of belief. Most of his work has focused on Hume’s contributions to these issues. In a forthcoming book\, he argues that much of Hume’s skepticism arises from his thinking about the limits of intelligibility rather than those of justified belief. \nDetails to follow.

SUMMARY:Continental Philosophy Research Group (Thimo Heisenberg\, Rice University)
DESCRIPTION:The Continental Philosophy Research Interest Group welcomes guest speaker Thimo Heisenberg\, an associate professor in the Department of Philosophy at Rice University. \nProfessor Heisenberg is a specialist in 19th and 20th century German Philosophy. Having earned his PhD from Columbia in 2019\, his work has appeared in journals such as the British Journal of the History of Philosophy\, the European Journal of Philosophy\, Inquiry\, and the Journal of the American Philosophical Association\, as well as in many edited collections and anthologies. He was a Fulbright Scholar\, and has received fellowships from the Alexander-von-Humboldt Foundation\, the German National Academic Foundation\, the Max Weber Program and from Columbia University. His book\, The Economy in German Idealism\, is under contract with Oxford University Press. \nTalk Title\nThe Dream Allegory in Schelling’s Denkmal \nTalk Abstract\nThe final section of Schelling’s 1812 Denkmal is its most unusual. While the rest of the text had presented a philosophical critique of Jacobi and Jacobianism\, this third part offers a satirical Dream Allegory showing a fictional Jacobi on an absurd journey. Because of this unconventional form\, commentators have largely avoided this part of the text or dismissed it as unserious. Yet\, even though this is rarely noted\, Schelling himself insists on the allegory’s importance: telling us that it is only here that his critique of Jacobi finds “proper completion” (AA I 18\, 188) and even that it does the “best work” (AA I 18\, 144). In this regard\, unless we want to dismiss these remarks too\, we need to attend to the allegory and its role in Schelling’s argument. This is what I will do in this talk. I will argue that\, rightly interpreted\, the allegory does indeed bring Schelling’s critique of Jacobi to completion and culmination:  rounding out Schelling’s well-known critique of Jacobi’s principles with a much less well-known (but motivationally even more powerful) critique of the life those principles lead us to live\, if we adopt them as our own.
