SUMMARY:Workshop on Mind\, Consciousness and Perception in Cavendish
DESCRIPTION:We are pleased to announce an upcoming online workshop on “Cavendish: Mind\, Consciousness and Perception\,” which will be held on 25 and 26 July\, 2024. The workshop is organized by Pedro Pricladnitzky and Aaron Wells. Invited speakers: \nColin Chamberlain (University College London) \nMarcy Lascano (University of Kansas) \nAlison Peterman (University of Rochester \nJonathan Shaheen (University of Uppsala) \nSubmitted talks: \nOlivia Branscum (University of Oklahoma) \nJan Forsman (University of Iowa) \nKevin Lower (Villanova University) \nMilena Monteiro Rodrigues (Federal University of Rio de Janeiro) \nThis workshop aims to explore the philosophical perspectives of Margaret Cavendish regarding the nature of the mind in the context of early modern philosophy and its relations to contemporary discussions. Submissions concerning the philosophy of mind and the theory of knowledge within the context of Cavendish’s work\, interpreted broadly\, align perfectly with the goals of our workshop. We are especially keen on perspectives that highlight Cavendish’s departure from conventional notions of consciousness\, while emphasizing the interconnectedness of mind\, body\, and environment. \nMargaret Cavendish (1623-1673)\, one of the most remarkable figures in early modern philosophy\, made significant contributions to metaphysics\, philosophy of nature\, epistemology\, and philosophy of mind. Despite being overshadowed by her contemporaries\, her works offer profound insights into questions surrounding the mind\, consciousness\, and perception. She was a critic of the dominant mechanistic philosophy and proposed an alternative organicist explanation of nature\, challenging the prevailing views of thinkers like Hobbes and Descartes. Cavendish’s unique metaphysical views anticipated later philosophers like Spinoza and Leibniz and contributed to a more nuanced understanding of nature’s order and infinitude. Her work also  presents an early form of naturalism\, resonating with contemporary philosophy and scientific inquiry. Additionally\, it provides valuable insights relevant to ongoing inquiries into whether the entities surrounding us possess consciousness and intelligence. \nTalk titles\, schedule\, and registration details will follow soon! \nFor registration/zoom link contact: wells@mail.uni-paderborn.de
