DESCRIPTION:<p>Confrontations\, Representations\, and the Philosophy of Art</p>\n<p>Abstract</p>\n<p>There seems to be a foundational\, if none to clear\, distinction between our encountering things and our encountering representations of things. This was\, I claim\, what Kendall Walton was attempting to clarify in his monumental work\, <em>Mimesis as Make-Believe</em> (Harvard\, 1990). However\, Walton's project has been largely misunderstood which has resulted in a great deal of confusion in much of what passes for the Philosophy of Fiction. In this paper I will argue that Walton's way of making the distinction is untenable and I will attempt to give it firmer foundations. Although the reconceptualised distinction is useful\, it lacks the grand explanatory sweep of Walton's project. I shall conclude by arguing that it is\, nonetheless\, an essential starting point for settling the myriad problems that arise in considering the representational arts.</p>\n<p>Registration</p>\n<p>This colloquium talk is planned as an in-person and online event.
