Past activities of this group
Topic & aim
This study group is devoted to contemporary metaphysics, including ontology, mereology, the metaphysics of modality, fiction, the philosophy of time, and metametaphysics. Issues in contemporary metaphysics often bear on issues in other areas, such epistemology or logic, and often have a long history, with a lot to learn from historical work on earlier figures. We aim to organize events that emphasize these connections.
Set-up & practicalities
We will aim for meeting twice a year with an activity that is focused on a single theme (such as the philosophy of time, or mereology, the metaphysics of modality, etc.) and, where appropriate, will also invite speakers from affiliated fields.
