SUMMARY:History of Philosophy Research Group Talk (Thierry Côté\, Toronto)
DESCRIPTION:The History of Modern Philosophy Group is pleased to welcome as its guest speaker Thierry Côté\, a postdoctoral fellow in the Department of Philosophy at the University of Toronto. Dr. Côté specializes in early modern philosophy and aesthetics\, with additional interests in the philosophy of music\, the philosophy of literature\, and contemporary French philosophy. He earned his PhD from the Université de Montréal in 2023\, with a dissertation titled “Musique\, parole et signification au siècle des Lumières.” \nTalk Title\nHume on the Redirection and Enlargement of Passions \nTalk Abstract\n\nFor Hume\, culture is not the process by which rational representations come to govern passions. It is\, instead\, a naturally induced\, self-enforcing process of refinement\, redirection and enlargement of natural tendencies. This talk’s purpose is to clarify and question the logic of this process\, and show how it is both produced and limited by core human tendencies. It will especially focus on the two central notions of redirection and enlargement. I will first concentrate on Hume’s account of the origins of justice\, and what he means when he claims reason cannot motivate\, but only provide a “new direction” to natural passions (T 3.2.5.9). I will then address the role of sympathy in Hume’s theory of artificial virtues\, and see how shared moral standards result from of an “intercourse of sentiments” (T 3.3.3.2). Finally\, I will explore how evaluations by standards relate to motivation itself. In my view\, Hume’s purpose as a skeptical moralist is not so much to make metaethical claims about reason’s inertness\, but rather to account for a complex interplay between our cultivated and unpliable natures. \n\nOne of six departmental Research Interest Groups\, the History of Philosophy Group explores topics in ancient and/or medieval philosophy\, the period from Descartes to Kant\, and Jewish philosophy from the medieval period to the 20th century.
