DESCRIPTION:<p><em>What&rsquo\;s So Special about First-Person Thought?</em> is an international network founded by the Leverhulme Trust and hosted by the University of Aberdeen. The project aims to investigate the philosophical significance of first-person thought by bringing together researchers with conflicting views on the topic.</p>\n<p><em>Imagination\, Simulation\, and the Self </em>is<em> </em>the project&rsquo\;s second conference and will be held at Tufts University\,&nbsp\;Lincoln Filene Hall\, Raab Room&nbsp\;on 5-6th July 2018.</p>\n<p>The conference investigates imagination and other counterfactual attitudes from perspectives in philosophy of mind\, linguistics\, and cognitive science. The central focus will be on how the self is represented in imagination\, simulation\, and dreaming\, as well as the role that such representations play in empathy and understanding.</p>\n<p>Programme:</p>\n<p><u><strong>Thursday\, July 5th\, 2018</strong></u></p>\n<p><strong>9:00am<br></strong>Coffee and refreshments</p>\n<p><strong>9:30 -11:00am<br></strong><em>Imagination and the Self<br></em>Dilip Ninan (Tufts University)</p>\n<p><strong>11:00 -11:10am<br></strong>Coffee break</p>\n<p><strong>11:10am -12:40pm<br></strong><em>The argument from counteridenticals<br></em>Hazel Pearson (Queen Mary University of London)</p>\n<p><strong>12:40 -1:40pm<br></strong>Lunch</p>\n<p><strong>1:40 -3:40pm<br></strong><em>Reverse Engineering the Self<br></em>Laurie Paul (UNC-Chapel Hill / St Andrews)<br>Josh Tenenbaun (MIT)<br>Tomer Ullman (MIT)</p>\n<p><strong>3:40 -4:00pm<br></strong>Coffee break&nbsp\;</p>\n<p><strong>4:00 -5:30pm<br></strong><em>Counterfactual Attitudes and Paired Propositions</em><strong><em><br></em></strong>Kyle Blumberg (NYU)</p>\n<p><strong><br></strong></p>\n<p><u><strong>Friday\, July 6th\, 2018</strong></u></p>\n<p><strong>9:00am<br></strong>Coffee and refreshments</p>\n<p><strong>9:30 -11:00am<br></strong><em>First-Person Imaginings<br></em>Stephan Torre (University of Aberdeen)</p>\n<p><strong>11:00 -11:10am<br></strong>Coffee break</p>\n<p><strong>11:10am -12:40pm<br></strong><em>Simulation and Normality<br></em>Joshua Knobe (Yale University)</p>\n<p><strong>12:40 -1:40pm<br></strong>Lunch&nbsp\;</p>\n<p><strong>1:40 -3:40pm<br></strong><em>Empathy\, Communication and Understanding<br></em>Herman Cappelen (ConceptLab-Oslo / St Andrews)<br>Laurie Paul (UNC-Chapel Hill / St Andrews)</p>\n<p>The conference is organised by Dilip Ninan\, Stephan Torre and Irmina Zborowska.</p>\n<p>You can view more information on our website here:</p>
