Hi all
I am running a seminar on Realism and Idealism, on Wednesdays, from 10.00-11.30, starting on 15 October. If you are interested in attending this seminar, please read this email, as I am planning to experiment slightly with the seminar format (it will be somewhere between a lecture and a discussion group). The seminar is aimed at undergraduate and graduate students in philosophy. Students from other faculties are welcome to attend. (However, if you are a post-doctorate or faculty member and wish to attend, please email me in advance.) Each week, there will be assigned primary and secondary reading. The secondary reading is just for enthusiasts; but everyone who attends the seminar must do the primary reading. You must also prepare a question, related to the primary reading to ask at the the seminar. A typical seminar will run as follows. I will give a 30 minute-ish presentation on the assigned reading. Someone will then get discussion started, by asking their prepared question. (If your question is similar, it would be good to hear yours at this point too.) I will try to answer the question, and then to open things up to a wider discussion. However, I will manage the overall discussion so as to make sure that, at a minimum, everyone gets to ask their question. The current reading list is available at http://www.nottub.com/teaching.shtml The first primary reading is Dummett's `The reality of the past' (1969), available at http://www.jstor.org/stable/pdfplus/10.2307/4544778.pdf. If you have any questions about the seminar, then please email me at tecb2.
