Each year\, since 2009\, the Department of Philosophy has welcomed a prestigious guest speaker to deliver a lecture in honour of Mark Sainsbury\, former Susan Stebbing Professor of Philosophy.

\n

This year's lecture will be presented by Michael Tye from the University of Texas at Austin. Michael works mainly in the philosophy of mind and the foundations of cognitive science\, but he also has interests in metaphysics. He has been a visiting professor at King's for ten consecutive years. His seven published books include works on consciousness\, the imagery debate in cognitive psychology\, metaphysics of mind and concepts.

In his lecture\, Michael will propose a principle for crossing the objective-subjective divide and he will argue that the weight of experimental evidence supports the view that fish have at least some of the feelings we do.

The lecture will be followed by a drinks reception in the Department of Philosophy. We hope you can join us for what is always a very special evening.
