Bristol Undergraduate Philosophy Conference

This conference will provide an opportunity for Undergraduates to come and give a presentation of aspects of their work that they feel touch the sides of both Continental and Analytic philosophy. The ‘problem-oriented’ style of Analytic philosophy has encouraged a renewed engagement with Continental approaches to certain philosophical issues. Alongside this, recent trends in continental philosophy takes very seriously science, mathematics, and naturalism, creating space for dialogue with analytic philosophy of science and metaphysics. The two ‘traditions’ have common historical ancestors and touch on many of the same problems, creating a fruitful space to explore attitudes to interpretation of the history of philosophy, as well as contemporary debates.
