The notion of acquaintance has the potential to explain a wide range of important facts in philosophy of mind\, epistemology\, metaphysics\, aesthetics\, ethics\, and other domains.</p>\n<p>The <strong>Acquaintance Network</strong> aims to support current work on acquaintance and to promote future work on acquaintance. More information about the Acquaintance Network <a href="https://www.acquaintancenetwork.net/">here</a>.</p>\n<p>This is the <strong>inaugural workshop</strong> of the Acquaintance Network. We&rsquo\;ll discuss fundamental issues concerning the nature and epistemology of acquaintance\, both from a contemporary and a historical perspective.</p>\n<p><u>Program</u></p>\n<p><strong>Wednesday\, July 1</strong></p>\n<p><strong>10 &ndash\; 11:30</strong> Donovan Wishon\, &ldquo\;How Transparent is Experience?: Reassessing Diaphaneity in Early Analytic Philosophy&rdquo\;</p>\n<p>– Coffee break</p>\n<p><strong>12 &ndash\; 13:30</strong> Sharon Casu\, &ldquo\;Acquaintance and Mediation&rdquo\;</p>\n<p>–&nbsp\;Lunch</p>\n<p><strong>15 &ndash\; 17</strong> &nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\; Roundtable: SEP on <em>Knowledge by Acquaintance and Knowledge by Description</em> (by Ali Hasan).&nbsp\;Discussants: Emad Atiq\, Sharon Casu\, Sam Coleman\, Matt Duncan\, Anna Giustina\, Ali Hasan\, Michael Markunas\, Jacopo Pallagrosi\, Chris Ranalli\, Donovan Wishon</p>\n<p><strong>Thursday\, July 2</strong></p>\n<p><strong>10 &ndash\; 11:30</strong>&nbsp\;Sam Coleman\, &ldquo\;Phenomenal Concepts\, Qualia\, and Acquaintance - Issues Arising&rdquo\;</p>\n<p>– Coffee break</p>\n<p><strong>12 &ndash\; 13:30</strong> Michael Markunas\, &ldquo\;Acquaintance with Abstract Objects&rdquo\;</p>\n<p>–Lunch</p>\n<p><strong>15:30 &ndash\; 17</strong> Anna Giustina and Jacopo Pallagrosi\, &ldquo\;Knowledge by Acquaintance and the Conceptual Mind&rdquo\;</p>\n<p><strong>Friday\, July 3</strong></p>\n<p><strong>12:00 &ndash\; 13:30 </strong>Matt Duncan\, &ldquo\;I Think\, Therefore ...
