Sellars in A New Ceneration

时间:2015-06-09

       April 30th- May 2nd, 

  Kent State University.

  The work of Wilfrid Sellars has touched nearly every area of philosophy, from traditional debates in metaphysics, epistemology, and ethics, to contemporary issues in philosophy of language and mind.  Sellars’ contributions to each of these fields were strikingly original, historically informed, and deeply systematic.  For these reasons, his influence on the trajectory of philosophy was profound.  The magnitude of this influence is, however, obscured by some contemporary visions of 20th century philosophy, which either fail to give Sellars credit for his achievements, or leave him out of the story altogether.  The aim of this conference is to revisit Sellars’ important contributions, highlighting their relevance to the questions that philosophy faces today.  

    Keynote speakers:Willem deVries (University of New Hampshire), Jim O’Shea(University College Dublin), David Rosenthal (CUNY Graduate Center), Danielle Macbeth (Haverford College), Huw Price (Cambridge University), Robert Brandom (University of Pittsburgh), David Pereplyotchik (Kent State University), Boris Brandhoff (University of Bonn), Carl Sachs(Marymount University), Jeremy Koons(Georgetown University, Qatar), Dionysis Christias(University of Athens).
