Dear all,
This term Carlo Rossi and I are running a reading group to discuss
recent work on grounding. We will be meeting weekly on Thursdays, 11:00
- 12:30, in the graduate common room. Weeks one to four will discuss
work in favour of grounding and weeks five to eight will focus on the
case against it.
Please see the reading list below. Our first meeting will be this coming
Thursday, when we will discuss Gideon Rosen's paper "Metaphysical
Dependence: Grounding and Reduction". All are welcome!
Best wishes,
Michael Clark
