SUMMARY:Super Special Seminar: Talk by Mark Jago (Nottingham) on "Real Contingent Identity"
DESCRIPTION:Abstract \n  \nAre facts about numerical identity contingent? Is it ever the case that a is b\, but might not have been? Or that a and b are two\, but might have been one? Our two leading approaches to modal semantics – Kripkean Quantified Modal Logic and Lewisian Counterpart Theory – give opposing answers. QML says the identity facts are necessary; counterpart theory that they are radically contingent: I could have been you\, and each of us could have been a poached egg. I don’t think I could have been a poached egg. Being a person is essential to being me. Same for you. But do our respective essences keep us essentially apart? Or do they allow for contingency in our distinctness? I offer a theory of real contingent identity. De re modality is not merely a matter of resemblance\, as it is for Lewis\, but rather a deep metaphysical notion\, grounded in our essences.

SUMMARY:Conceptual Engineering Seminar: Talk by Delia Belleri (Vienna) on "Ontological Disputes\, Metalinguistic Negotiation and the Realism-Antirealism Divide".
DESCRIPTION:Abstract \nIn this paper\, I explore the idea that ontological disputes might be metalinguistic negotiations. In the first part\, I look at three orders of reasons why one might want to connect ontological disputes with the phenomenon of metalinguistic negotiation\, which in turn give rise to theses with different degrees of strength. In the second part\, I inquire into what theoretical assumptions might make the metalinguistic negotiation hypothesis palatable for someone who holds a position along the Realism-Antirealism spectrum. I then examine how positions that I dub “Plain Realism” (à la Devitt or Sider)\, “Relativist Realism” (à la Quine) and “Relativist Antirealism” (à la Goodman) would fare with the metalinguistic negotiation idea\, noting that absence of some form of pluralism precludes appreciation of this hypothesis. I conclude with some challenges for the pluralist who is attracted by the metalinguistic negotiation thesis.

SUMMARY:Conceptual Engineering Seminar: Talk by Mirela Fuš on "The Nature Question of Philosophical Engineering".
DESCRIPTION:Abstract \nA growing group of philosophers has recently taken up and extended Carnap’s project of explication\, which “consists in transforming a given more or less inexact concept into an exact one or\, rather\, in replacing the first by the second” (Carnap 1950: 3). In contemporary philosophical methodology\, projects descending from Carnap’s project of ‘explication’ (I dub them DCE Projects) go by different names\, some of the most prominent being ‘conceptual engineering’ (see Blackburn (1999)\, Brandom (2001)\, Chalmers (2011)\, Scharp (2013)\, Eklund (2014\, 2015)\, Cappelen (2018))\, ‘conceptual ethics’ (see Burgess and Plunkett (2013))\, ‘ameliorative projects\,’ ‘analytical projects’ (see Haslanger 1999\, 2000\, 2006) and ‘revisionary projects’ (see Railton 1989\, 1993\, Scharp 2007\, 2013).  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nIn this paper\, I work towards answering the Nature Question for DCE Projects: “What do DCE Projects have in common?” First\, I formulate three challenges to those trying to answer the Nature Question: one Terminological Challenge and Two Unity Challenges: (i) “Engineering” Unity Challenge and (ii) “Philosophy” Unity Challenge. Second\, I address the Terminological Challenge. In particular\, I look at some terminological commitments and argue for the introduction of a descriptively adequate field unifying term ‘philosophical engineering.’ Third\, I address the Two Unity Challenges by answering the Question A: “What makes philosophical engineering philosophical?” and the Question B: “What makes philosophical engineering engineering?” Finally\, I conclude that addressing the Unity Challenges shows that DCE Projects are (possible) instances of Philosophical Engineering.

SUMMARY:Language and Mind Seminar: Ryan Nefdt (University of the Western Cape)-The Ontology of Words: A Structuralist Account
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\nWords form a fundamental basis for the study of language\, its syntax\, semantics and phonology. However\, the precise ontology of words has eluded many philosophers and linguists. A persistent difficulty for most accounts of words is the type-token distinction (Bromberger 1989\, Kaplan 1990). In this paper\, I present a novel account of words which differs from the atomistic and platonistic conceptions of previous accounts which I argue fall prey to this problem.\nSpecifically\, I proffer a structuralist account of linguistic items\, along the lines of structuralism in the philosophy of mathematics (Shapiro 1997)\, in which words are defined as positions in larger structures. I follow Szabó (1999) and Parsons (1990) in further defining words as quasi-concrete objects according to a representation relation. This view aims for general correspondence with contemporary generative linguistic approaches to the study of language.

SUMMARY:Epistemology Seminar: Miguel Egler\, "Why Understanding-why is Contrastive"
DESCRIPTION:Interrogative understanding is the epistemic state ascribed by claims of the form ‘S understands why p’. Typically\, such attributions are taken to posit a special epistemic relation of understanding-why between a subject S and a proposition p. In the first part of this talk\, I argue that attempts to analyse interrogative understanding in terms of this binary relation fail. I then build on these arguments to advance contrastivism about interrogative understanding—i.e.\, the idea that ‘S understands why p’ posits a three-place relation between a subject S\, a proposition p\, and a contrast to p\, q. As we will see\, this proposal avoids the tricky results that afflict the binary views\, whilst also providing a neat account of the gradability of interrogative understanding.
