Dear all, 

This Thursday (Oct 15) at the Serious Metaphysics Group we will have Huw
Price speaking on The End of the World (abstract below). The talk will
be at 1.00-2.30pm, at the Philosophy Faculty Board Room. You are also
welcome to bring lunch, if you are arriving from another talk/lecture
beforehand. 

For the rest of the Michaelmas term card, please do have a look here:

Best wishes,

Abstract 
Serious metaphysics is mostly well-disposed towards the World, thought
of as all that there is, or all that is the case. Serious pragmatists
sometimes write in ways that suggest that they presuppose it, too: "The
world is out there but our descriptions of it are not", as Rorty says at
one point. I argue that pragmatists should be much more careful. They
should be against the World, at least in this 'totalitarian' version.
