Can self-consciousness be explained by the indexical &lsquo\;I&rsquo\;? Is self-consciousness necessary for personhood? Or are these issues best kept separate: Is &lsquo\;I&rsquo\; merely a linguistic phenomenon and personhood best understood as a social or narrative concept?</p>\n<p>Especially in the discussion about personal identity\, these questions are often crucial: Are we biological organisms or defined by consciousness? Are there criteria of personal identity or is our identity best understood in analogy to criteria free self-reference?</p>\n<p>We invite paper presentations on the topics of personhood\, self-consciousness\, or the first-person perspective as well as on the persistence of persons or the self.</p>\n<p><strong>Submission:</strong></p>\n<p>- Abstracts should be roughly 500 words (excluding references)</p>\n<p>- Paper presentations will be around 30 to 40 minutes</p>\n<p>Please send your abstract to <a href="mailto:markus.herrmann@ps.uni-heidelberg.de">markus.herrmann@ps.uni-heidelberg.de</a> by <strong>31th of Mai</strong>.
