This is the 2nd workshop devoted to the topic of Consciousness &\; Acquaintance organised by the project 'Representationalism or Anti-representationalism? Perspectives on intentionality from philosophy and cognitive science?' in collaboration with the Institute of Philosophy.
\nHaving fallen out of fashion in philosophy for much of the latter half of the C20th\, the notion of &lsquo\;acquaintance&rsquo\; has recently undergone something of a revival. As well as being invoked by theorists working in epistemology and the theory of reference\, &lsquo\;acquaintance&rsquo\; has increasingly figured in recent work on conscious experience. This workshop will aim to explore some of the different ways that appealing to acquaintance might shed light on the nature of consciousness.
\nAttendance is free\, but please email: thomas.raleigh@ntnu.no \; \; so we we have an idea of numbers.
