On April 8-9<\/strong> there is a two day symposium Ethics and Experience: Widening Perspectives, in philosophy with invited and local speakers<\/p>\n More information on pre-readings (for Monday) to come.<\/p>\n Every one is welcome!<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n \u2018<\/span>Don\u2019t start with a moral theory, start with where you actually are. Here is a question that I think ethicists should be asking alongside Nagel\u2019s famous question about bats (at the moment I want to use it as the title of Epiphanies Chapter 4): \u201cWhat is it like to be a human being?\u201d So start with that. Start with what it\u2019s like to be you, with your subjectivity here and now, with what looks serious and real and important and beautiful and (yes, why not?) fun to you just as you are, from your own viewpoint. Because actually that\u2019s the only place you ever can start from, really, and one tendency of systematising theories is to obscure this truth. \u2018<\/em><\/p>\n Read the full interview<\/a> to find out more about Sophie-Grace Chappell<\/em>’s thoughts about moral philosophy and trans experience, two themes she will also enter more deeply into during the symposium.<\/p>\n Contact camilla.kronqvist(a)abo.fi if you need the password for Monday’s pre-circulated papers!\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n PROGRAM<\/strong><\/p>\n 8.4.
