Workshop: Questions in Philosophy
The workshop focuses on current discussions concerning the nature and normativity of questions and their role in various areas of philosophy, including epistemology (e.g. inquiry and deliberation), philosophy of mind (e.g. mental content), metaphysics (e.g. metaphysical explanation), and aesthetics (e.g. imagination and fiction).
The workshop is open to anyone who is interested.
