Guest talk winter semester 2018-19

Prof. Pascal Engel (EHESS, CRAL, CNRS Paris)
19 Nov, 2018, 5:30 pm
Title: "Against neo-pragmatist theories of belief"
Room: Black Box, MSH, ground floor, Campus Belval.
Everybody welcome, free admission!

Abstract: Various authors have recently defended a version of pragmatism about belief. This is not the classical pragmatist view that belief is a disposition to act, but the view that evidential and practical reasons for belief carry equal weight and that belief is essentially individuated by its role in practical reasoning. I examine their arguments, and argue that they fail to show that epistemic reasons for belief have no privilege.

Aims and Scope
A natural idea is that freedom presupposes the ability to do otherwise. The aim of this workshop is to clarify this idea and examine its viability. Does freedom sometimes or always presuppose the ability to do otherwise? How should we understand this ability? Should it be characterized, for example, in terms of two-way powers, clusters of dispositions, or agential possibilities? And are the ability to do otherwise and the opportunity to exercise it compatible with likely candidates for the causal and nomic structure of the actual world?
Registration is free. Please send a short email to christian.loew@uni.lu by June 1st.

Organisateur : Robert Theis (Université du Luxembourg)

Comité scientifique : Jean Ferrari, Sophie Grapotte, Dietmar Heidemann, Luc Langlois, Mai Lequan, François Marty, Evanghelos Moutsopoulos, Claude Piché, Margit Ruffing, Ingeborg Schüssler, Gerhard Seel, Riccardo Terra.

Conférences plénières : ont accepté de présenter une conférence plénière : Jean Ferrari (Université de Bourgogne), Giovanni Ferretti (Università di Macerata), Laurent Gallois (Centre Sèvres, Paris), Günter Zöller (Université de Munich)

Le 10 ^e Congrès de la Société d’Etudes Kantiennes de Langue Française (SEKLF) sera organisé par l’Université du Luxembourg et aura lieu dans les locaux du Centre culturel de l’Abbaye Neumunster (Luxembourg-Grund). Ses travaux porteront sur le binôme « théologie et religion » dans la pensée kantienne. Il s’agira d’étudier les problématiques inhérentes à chacun de ces concepts dans une perspective génétique et systématique, à les situer dans les contextes historiques de leur émergence (p.ex. Wolff, Baumgarten, Eberhard…) et dans leur réception immédiate voire lointaine.

Des axes à prendre en compte sont la discussion des preuves de l’existence de Dieu, le statut du discours théologique dans la pensée critique, le rapport entre la théologie de la Critique de la raison pure et la religion de la raison, le lieu et la signification du religieux dans la pensée éthique de Kant, les questions relatives à l’herméneutique du christianisme dans la Religion dans les limites de la simple raison , religion et politique…

Résumé:

Quelle est la place qui revient à Franz Brentano dans l’histoire de la philosophie en Autriche au tournant du vingtième siècle? La plupart des études qui se sont penchées sur cette question appartiennent à des historiens de la philosophie du Cercle de Vienne qui voient dans Brentano et ses étudiants une des étapes importantes dans le développement de la philosophie autrichienne. Tout en reconnaissant la contribution majeure de ces études à l’historiographie de la philosophie en Autriche, on peut estimer qu’elles ont négligé pour la plupart le rôle des institutions dans le cours de cette histoire. Une des institutions remarquables dont on parle rarement dans ces études est la Société philosophique de l’Université de Vienne fondée en 1888 par un groupe d’étudiants de Brentano. On montrera que cette société, qui se voulait au tout début l’organe du programme philosophique de Brentano, a contribué de manière significative au développement de la philosophie en Autriche, et qu’elle est en partie responsable de la formation du Cercle de Vienne dans les années 1920.
