DESCRIPTION:<p>&ndash\;&ndash\;&ndash\;&ndash\;&ndash\;</p>\n<p>Closing Conference of the DFG Emmy-Noether Project &ldquo\;A Sensible World&rdquo\;</p>\n<p><strong>The Physical World and Its Perception: <br> Phenomenology and Analytic Philosophy </strong></p>\n<p>Humboldt-Universit&auml\;t zu Berlin\, 18-19 June 2026</p>\n<p>The aim of this conference is to explore the nature of physical reality\, the way the various macro- and microscopic layers of physical reality are constituted and structured\, and to what extent perception provides faithful access to the physical world. Topics to be addressed include metaphysical issues about the mind-(in)dependent existence of sensory qualities\, the distinction between primary and secondary qualities (and possible differences in their perception)\, the relations of foundation between sensory qualities and subperceptual aspects of physical reality\, the reliability of sensory contents for our cognition of the physical world\, and\, more generally\, naive realism and competing metaphysical accounts of physical reality. The guiding idea is that a dialogue between phenomenology and analytic philosophy on these questions will be fruitful and mutually enriching\, as there are important points of contact between these two traditions\, in particular regarding the description and vindication of our ordinary experience of the physical world.</p>\n<p><strong><br>Programme</strong></p>\n<p><strong>Thursday\, 18 June </strong></p>\n<p>09:15-09:30 <em>Welcome and Opening Remarks<br></em>09:30-10:45 <strong>Michelle Montague </strong>(UT Austin)<br><em>Presentational Phenomenology and Descriptive Metaphysics <br> </em>11:00-12:15 <strong>Walter Hopp </strong>(Boston University)<br><em>Phenomenological Exceptionalism<br></em>13:45-15:00 <strong>Christian Beyer </strong>(G&ouml\;ttingen)<br><em>Husserl&rsquo\;s View of Perceptual Content and Justification<br></em>15:15-16:30 <strong>James Jardine </strong>(HU Berlin)<br><em>Revisiting Husserl&rsquo\;s Account of Colour Constancy<br></em>16:45-18:00 <strong>Galen Strawson </strong>(UT Austin)<br><em>Real Direct Realism: Charles Augustus Strong</em></p>\n<p><strong>Friday\, 19 June </strong></p>\n<p>09:30-10:45 <strong>Bill Brewer </strong>(KCL)<br><em>What are the Primary Qualities?<br></em>11:00-12:15 <strong>Thomas Crowther </strong>(Warwick)<br><em>Events and the Primary-Secondary Quality Distinction<br></em>13:45-15:00 <strong>Hamid Taieb </strong>(FU/HU Berlin)<br><em>Colours: Phenomenology and Analytic Philosophy<br></em>15:15-16:30 <strong>Louise Richardson </strong>(University of York)<br><em>Structural Features and Na&iuml\;ve Realism<br></em>16:45-18:00 <strong>Mark Eli Kalderon </strong>(UCL)<br><em>Perceptual Pragmatism and Objectivity</em></p>\n<p><strong><br>Venue</strong>: Room 2249a\, Humboldt-Universit&auml\;t zu Berlin\, Unter den Linden 6\, 10117 Berlin<br><strong>Attendance</strong>: Registration mandatory\, please write to <a href="mailto:maria.staecker.1@hu-berlin.de">maria.staecker.1@hu-berlin.de</a>&nbsp\;&nbsp\;<br><strong>Organiser</strong>: Hamid Taieb (<a href="mailto:hamid.taieb@hu-berlin.de">hamid.taieb@hu-berlin.de</a>)<br><strong>For more information</strong>: <a href="http://www.a-sensible-world.net">www.a-sensible-world.net</a></p>\n<p>&ndash\;&ndash\;&ndash\;&ndash\;&ndash\;</p>
