---CONFERENCE: BRENTANO AND BEYOND &ndash\; ISSUES IN PHENOMENOLOGY AND PHILOSOPHY OF MIND---
June 9 &ndash\; 10\, 2014

Franz Brentano is aptly called the father &ndash\; or grandfather &ndash\; of phenomenology. Already in the 1860ies\, he had a conception of phenomenology as a systematic investigation of the basic elements of our mental life: sensory qualities\, time- and space determinations\, and consciousness (including presenting\, judging and affective states). Edmund Husserl developed this investigation further into a philosophical discipline of its own. At bottom\, however\, the Brentanian and Husserlian phenomenology share many concerns: the role and nature of phenomenal experience\, the nature of intentionality\, the phenomenology of cognition and emotion\, the structure of self-awareness\, etc. These themes continue to be an inspiration in contemporary debates.

This conference will deal with the nature of phenomenal experience and the place of consciousness conceived from a Brentanian perspective in the context of contemporary work in philosophy of mind. It will thus be centred on issues related to sensory experience\, perception\, imagination\, self-consciousness\, and intentionality\, among others.
