SUMMARY:CEFISES Seminar: Charles Pence\, "The HPS 'Long View' and the Case of the Journal Article"
DESCRIPTION:ATTENTION\, location change. The meeting will not take place in the usual Salle Ladrière\, but on the Salle du Conseil PSP\, room number a.224 (right on top of Salle Ladrière). \nLivestream  https://youtu.be/i7naz6Biu7E \nSeries: HPS \nSpeaker: Charles H. Pence (UCLouvain) \nTitle: “The HPS ‘Long View’ and the Case of the Journal Article” \n\n\n\n\nAbstract \nIt is tempting to regard the “record” of journal articles as a temporally and culturally stable artifact that could permit sweeping\, comparative historical analyses of a particularly powerful sort – just the kind of thing that could be used to ground generalizations in HPS. All the more since some still-extant journals\, like Nature or the Proceedings of the Royal Society\, reach back to cover significant periods of the nineteenth century (having been founded in 1869 and 1831\, respectively). Setting aside worries about pretensions to completeness (as could be attested by anyone who has ever attempted to download the “complete” catalog of even a relatively recent journal)\, I want to pursue the question of the “journal record” through a combination of historical and practical approaches in this talk. Humanistic analyses of “the literature” need to not only wrestle with its syntactic content\, and with the difficulties of moving from syntax to semantics\, but\, if such an analysis is to be in the slightest a historical endeavor\, it needs also to deal with the epistemic\, social\, and cultural contexts of journal article production. I will describe these worries in theory\, then demonstrate them in practice\, presenting some in-progress work on the reception of statistics in Britain in the last decades of the nineteenth century.

SUMMARY:CEFISES Seminar: Blandine De Becker\, "Epistemology of models and Supervaluationism"
DESCRIPTION:Livestream  https://youtu.be/M4ckKTe4HCw \nSeries: Work-in-Progress \nSpeaker: Blandine De Becker (UCLouvain) \nTitle: “Epistemology of models and Supervaluationism” \nAbstract\nIn this talk\, I will present several perspectives in the epistemology of models\, focusing on types of types of models\, their relationship to target systems\, and their scientific usefulness. I will then introduce Supervaluationism and suggest how it could offer an interesting avenue for modeling.

SUMMARY:CEFISES Seminar: Pilar Terrés Villalonga\, "Concept possession for inconsistent concepts"
DESCRIPTION:Livestream  https://youtu.be/3s4giMEFne4 \nSeries: OLOFOS \nSpeaker: Pilar Terrés Villalonga (Universitat de València) \nTitle: “Concept possession for inconsistent concepts” \nAbstract \nInconsistent concepts\, understood\, following Scharp\, Eklund and Liggins\, as concepts whose constitutive principles entail something that is not the case\, pose a challenge to theories about concept possession. Paradigmatic examples include Prior’s connective TONK\, but scientific notions and slur terms have been included under the category. After examining the common features of these sort of infelicitous concepts\, I suggest a contextualist account which makes their legitimacy relative to a context of use. This view offers a natural solution to a problem that inconsistent concepts pose to theories about concept possession: the intuitive view that to possess a concept is to believe or endorse its constitutive principles commits competent speakers to endorse their false consequences. After exploring the different solutions to the puzzle in the literature\, I suggest a refinement of a conditionalized approach to concept constitution (following Boghossian (2003))\, which goes in line with the defended contextualist view.
