Dear All, The final meeting of the Moral Sciences Club this academic year will be held on Tuesday 22 May. We are delighted to welcome Rachael Wiseman ( Liverpool), who will be giving a paper entitled "Being naïve about humans and animals". The abstract is below:
I will propose that we ought not to think of ourselves as *persons *but as *living human bodies. *I will explain what that means and will present the 'ought' as ethical rather than (or perhaps as well as) epistemic. I will talk about Anscombe, Wittgenstein and Murdoch (among others). *Please note that we will meet earlier than usual, at 1.50 pm, in the gardens of Newnham College,** for the Annual Club Photograph and the Annual General Meeting**.* Rachael's paper will begin, as usual, at 2.30 pm and will be followed by questions until 4.15 pm. This is currently scheduled for the Jane Harrison Room at Newnham College, and will be followed by tea and coffee. If you would will be attending the talk and would like to join us for dinner afterwards, please email the Club secretaries by no later than noon on Monday 21 May. Best wishes, -- Karamvir Chadha and Cathy Mason Secretaries of the Moral Sciences Club Faculty of Philosophy University of Cambridge msc...@hermes.cam.ac.uk http://www.phil.cam.ac.uk/seminars-phil/seminars-msc _____________________________________________________ To unsubscribe from the CamPhilEvents mailing list, or change your membership options, please visit the list information page: http://bit.ly/CamPhilEvents List archive: http://bit.ly/CamPhilEventsArchive Please note that CamPhilEvents doesn't accept email attachments.
