Event details
Philosophy at Southampton will host the third workshop of the AHRC-funded project, Normativity: Epistemic and Practical.
The workshop will consider whether theories in meta-ethics – for example, expressivism, error theory, naturalism, fictionalism, and so on – might be applied to epistemic normativity, and how the arguments for and against those theories – for example, open question arguments, arguments from queerness, arguments from motivational internalism, and so on – fare when we turn to epistemic discourse and its subject matter.
Further details and a call for respondents will be posted in due course.
Speakers
- Michael Ridge (Edinburgh)
- Anne Meylan (Fribourg)
