Meeting Description: 

Dear all,

You are warmly invited to the fourth webinar of the inaugural series of
webinars of the Linguistic Justice Society (LJS):

Thursday, 29 September 2022, from 4pm to 5.30pm (CEST)

Edouard Machery (Pittsburgh), ''What if epistemology was written in Cofán
rather than English?''

ABSTRACT: I argue that everyday uses of epistemic expressions are
philosophically significant, whatever one’s views about the subject matter of
epistemology. There is also increasing evidence that the epistemic lexical
field varies substantially across languages, in part because of the research
conducted by the Geography of Philosophy Project
(https://www.geographyofphilosophy.com/). This talk will review this emerging
body of evidence and assess its significance for the practice of epistemology
and more broadly philosophy.

SPEAKER BIO: Edouard Machery is Distinguished Professor in the Department of
History and Philosophy of Science at the University of Pittsburgh and the
Director of the Center for Philosophy of Science at the University of
Pittsburgh. He is the author of Doing without Concepts (OUP, 2009) and of
Philosophy Within Its Proper Bounds (OUP, 2017). He is leading a $3.5 Million
grant, the Geography of Philosophy (https://www.geographyofphilosophy.com/),
funded by the John Templeton Foundation. He has recently been elected
President of the Society for Philosophy and Psychology (for 2023-24).
