Dear, Konrad asked me to forward this interesting message to you all. Best wishes Nathalie --- KAZIMIERZ NATURALISED EPISTEMOLOGY WORKSHOP 2nd-6th September 2005 Kazimierz Dolny, Poland
The second half of the 20th Century has witnessed the rapid growth of an approach to epistemology that gives up on the idea of a first philosophy and argues for a close partnership with sciences such as biology, psychology, cognitive science and information theory. As a result of the cross-pollination of ideas, naturalised epistemology has come to include a great richness of methodologies and approaches. The workshop will bring together a number of leading experts with post-graduates and researchers. Over the five days, the speakers will lead workshop groups that will focus on issues arising out of their work; in particular, issues of naturalised normativity. KNEW'05 is supported by the Faculty of Philosophy and Sociology, UMCS; the Department of Theory of Knowledge, KUL; and by the Philosophy Students Society, KUL. KNEW'05 is being organised by Konrad Talmont-Kaminski (UMCS) and Arkadiusz Gut (KUL).
