DESCRIPTION:<p>The aim of the conference is to examine the philosophical systems developed&nbsp\;by German philosophers in the 1860-1951 period\, and discuss their relevance&nbsp\;to contemporary analytical and continental philosophy. The focus is on&nbsp\;thinkers such as Max Scheler\, Franz Brentano\, Adolf Trendelenburg\, Martin&nbsp\;Heidegger\, Wilhelm Dilthey\, Friedrich Nietzsche\, Ernst Cassirer and Hannah&nbsp\;Arendt. Their systems emerged out of dissatisfaction with Kant&rsquo\;s&nbsp\;transcendental idealism\, and with German idealism\, and offered a wealth of&nbsp\;original ideas in metaphysics\, epistemology\, philosophy of mind and&nbsp\;language\, moral and political philosophy\, anthropology\, and philosophy of&nbsp\;culture and history.</p>\n<p><strong>Speakers:</strong></p>\n<p>Daniel Came (Oxford) on Max Scheler<br>Michael Franz (Tuebingen) on Helmuth Plessner<br>Sebastian Gardner (UCL) on Kant<br>Ken Gemes (Birkbeck) on Friedrich Nietzsche<br>Edward Kanterian (Kent) on Adolf Trendelenburg<br>Christine Lopes (London) on Franz Brentano<br>Michael Inwood (Oxford) on Ernst Cassirer<br>Eric Nelson (Massachusetts) on Wilhelm Dilthey<br>Vasilis Politis (Dublin) on Paul Natorp<br>Joseph Schear (Oxford) &nbsp\;on Martin Heidegger<br>Gudrun von Tevenar (Birkbeck) on Hannah Arendt</p>\n<p>While the conference is analytical in motivation and objective\, it has also&nbsp\;an unique historical focus. We aim to establish with this conference a new&nbsp\;forum for philosophical studies to be known as Later German Philosophy&nbsp\;(http://latergermanphilosophy.com)\, and which looks into the contemporary&nbsp\;relevance of philosophical works produced during the 1860-1951 period\, i.e.&nbsp\;a period marked by the deaths of two philosophers whose methods of inquiry&nbsp\;and argumentation marked respectively the end and the beginning of&nbsp\;significant philosophical traditions: Schopenhauer (1860) and Wittgenstein&nbsp\;(1951). The philosophers whose ideas and arguments the conference speakers&nbsp\;will consider are all Later German philosophers in this sense.</p>\n<p>Research questions</p>\n<ul>\n<li>What alternative philosophical systems were developed in response to Kant&nbsp\;and the German idealists?</li>\n<li>How did the rise of the natural and historical sciences affect philosophy?</li>\n<li>How did the analytic-continental divide emerge? Can it be overcome? Does&nbsp\;the 1860-1951 period offer us new approaches to this questions?</li>\n<li>In which areas and what respect can contemporary philosophy benefit from&nbsp\;the ideas of the 1860-1951 thinkers?</li>\n</ul>\n<p>Conference fee is &pound\;12 for non-students and &pound\;4.50 for students. Buffet lunch\,&nbsp\;coffee and cookies are included.<br><br>This conference is a non-profit event.
