An International PPhiG Symposium
Feminist Theory and the Philosophical Tradition University of Helsinki, Finland Main building, Room 5 Fabianinkatu 33, third floor December 2nd, 2011 This symposium will explore the connections and the tensions between contemporary feminist theory and the tradition of philosophy. Contemporary feminist thinkers have appropriated the tradition of philosophy in imaginative ways, but these allegiances also divide feminist thinkers: they sometimes appropriate very different or even opposing philosophical ideas about the subject, gender and power, for example. Some of the questions that we want to explore in this symposium are: How are various philosophical ideas and thinkers appropriated in contemporary feminist theory? What are the implications of these allegiances for our understanding of sex, gender, and sexuality? To what extent is it necessary for feminists to engage in a fundamental rethinking of philosophical concepts and categories in order to act politically in the present? Is it possible to identify something like ‘feminist philosophy’ or should we contend that there are only ‘feminist philosophies’ fundamentally contesting each other? Keynote speaker: Dr Stella Sandford Stella Sandford is Reader at the Centre for Research in Modern European Philosophy, Kingston University, London. She is the author of The Metaphysics of Love: Gender and Transcendence in Levinas (2001), How to Read Beauvoir (2006) and Plato and Sex (2010). Program 10.15-10.30 Johanna Oksala: Welcome 10.30-12.00 Stella Sandford (Kingston University): Short Circuits: Contemporary Feminist Theory and the History of Philosophy 12.00-13.30 Lunch break 3.30-15.00 Panel I: Miira Tuominen (University of Jyväskylä): Diotima and the Erôs of the Individual in Plato's Symposium Eva Maria Korsisaari (University of Helsinki): The Discourse of Ennobling Love in Antiquity and the Middle Ages: Irigarayan Approaches 15.00-15.30 Coffee break 15.30-17.00 Panel II: Rachel Jones (University of Dundee): Feminist Philosophy as a Post-Kantian Project: Irigaray's Transformation of the Transcendental Tuija Pulkkinen (University of Helsinki): Traces of Hegelian Thought in Contemporary Feminist Theory 19.00 Dinner This symposium is free and open to all.

Arkitekturfilosofisk konferens vid Åbo Akademi, 22-24 november 2011
Plats, Minne, TidsdjupVad innebär det att förstå platser, inte bara som rumsliga företeelser utan som tidsligt formade entiteter? Hur kan en medvetenhet om det historiska tidsdjupet prägla erfarenheten av en stad eller ett enskilt byggnadsverk? Hur kommer tidsdjupet in när det gäller att se hur platsen samspelar med sin geografiska och kulturella omgivning? Vad innebär det att med hjälp av bilder åskådliggöra det historiska tidsdjupet? Och vad riskerar att gå förlorat om medvetenheten om detta tidsdjup förytligas eller försvinner?Filosofiämnet vid Åbo Akademi anordnar den 22-24 november 2011 en svenskspråkig konferens kring dessa frågor, ”Plats, Minne, Tidsdjup”. Konferensen äger rum i anslutning till en stor arkitekturhistorisk utställning i Akademibyggnaden Arkens aula, anordnad under ledning av professor emeritus i arkitekturhistoria vid Tammerfors tekniska universitet, Tore Tallqvist. Skicka in abstractEn väsentlig del av konferensen kommer att utgöras av workshop-sessioner, där forskare ger halvtimmeslånga presentationer som berör konferensens tema. Forskare från finska och svenska universitet inbjuds därför att senast den 25 augusti skicka in abstracts på 250-300 ord till Martin Gustafsson (martgust(a)abo.fi). Besked om vilka abstracts som accepterats skickas ut senast den 15 september.

- Helsinki | seminaarit How philosophers search for truth without finding it, and what the search is good for:Socrates, Wittgenstein, Freud and the Liberating Power of PhilosophyA public symposium with Prof. James Conant (University of Chicago) and prof. Mladen Dolar (University of Ljubljana / Jan van Eyck Academy, Maastricht) at the University of Helsinki on November 22nd, 2011, 10 a.m. - 4 p.m. Venue: Siltavuorenpenger/Brobergsterassen 3 A, sh302. Programme: 10.15. Opening remarks: Thomas Wallgren, Fellow, Helsinki Collegium of Advanced Studies 10.30 - 12.30: James Conant: Socratic Aspects of Wittgenstein Lunch break 14.00-16.00: Prof. Mladen Dolar: "Socrates' Voice: From Socrates to Psychoanalysis". Socrates and Wittgenstein are the strangest of heroes in our philosophical canon. Both entertained an everyday idiom and were sure that they would be understood only by a few. Both sought for friendship through philosophy and both were certain that they would be rejected and even despised by many. Both claimed that philosophy of the most ambitious kind that we may conceive of does not deliver new truths. Both practised philosophy as polyphonic dialogue about the meaning of the concepts that shape us. Both thought that their radical practice may serve wisdom better than any other kind of search for knowledge or truth. The crisis of ecology and development and the demise of high modernity and of any naive progressivism has made critical reflection on the promise that "truth shall make us free" a major topic in the cultural conversation of our times. In philosophy the self-criticism of enlightenment optimism has a long history, going back to Greek Enlightenment with variations of a pragmatic turn and a postmodern / postcolonial critique as main templates in current debates. In this symposium we consider the nature of Socrates' and Wittgenstein's radical notions of philosophical method and the aims of philosophy and of Freud's conception of therapeutic dialogue in the context of the ongoing debates in philosophy and beyond about the fate of enlightenment optimism in our times. James Conant has pioneered the therapeutic interpretation of Wittgenstein and is also an expert on contemporary analytic philosophy and 18th and 19th century European philosophy. He teaches at the University of Chicago. Mladen Dolar integrates theoretical resources derived from Hegel, Lacan, Wittgenstein and others in work that combines systematic philosophical analysis with contemporary cultural and social criticism. His acclaimed book A Voice and Nothing More was published in 2006. The seminar is organised by the Academy of Finland Research Project "A Science of the Soul: Wittgenstein, Freud and Neuroscience in Dialogue."

ONE-DAY CONFERENCE
PRACTICAL CONFLICTS AND DEGREES OF MORAL RIGHTNESS The Department of Philosophy at Stockholm University in association with the Swedish Research Council will host a one-day conference on November 9th 2011. The conference seeks to address such questions as: What is the nature of moral conflict?

Are deontic concepts such as rightness and wrongness binary or can they be a matter of degree? Organiser: Anna Bergqvist Please note that Prof. Wlodek Rabinowicz will also present at this conference.

- Helsinki | seminaarit I 1900-talets brännspegelSeminarium om Georg Henrik von Wrights essäistikFredagen den 4 november 2011, Svenska litteratursällskapets hus, Riddaregatan 5, Helsingfors. Georg Henrik von Wright gjorde sig ett namn inom 1900-talets filosofi genom sin engelskspråkiga produktion inom bland annat logik, handlingsfilosofi och etik, men har kanske alltid i sitt hemland varit mera känd för sin svenskspråkiga essäistiska insats som sträcker sig från essäer om Tolstoj och Dostojevskij, via populärvetenskapliga framställningar om filosofi, till 80–90-talens samtidskritiska debatter. Detta seminarium ger en bred inblick i von Wrights svenskspråkiga arbete och dess plats i 1900-talets tankeströmningar. Programmet: 11–11.20 Henrik Meinander: Inledning 11.20–11.55 Johan Strang: Georg Henrik von Wright och Ingemar Hedenius ¬– rollen som intellektuell analytisk filosof i Finland och Sverige 12.00–12.35 Merete Mazzarella: Några synpunkter på Georg Henrik von Wright som essäist Kaffe med smörgås 13–13.35 Anna-Stina Lindholm: Från tanke till omtanke – en undersökning av von Wrights och Lilius essäistik 13.40–14.15 Thomas Wallgren: Mitt i 1900-talets brännspegel: Den oförlösta spänningen mellan vetenskapstro och utvecklingspessimism som kreativ drivkraft i von Wrights verk 14.20–14.55 Bernt Österman: Värdefilosofin i von Wrights essäer Efter föredragen fortsätter diskussionen fritt över ett glas vin fram till ca.15.50. Seminariet är öppet för allmänheten. För att vi ska kunna bedöma mängden av traktering som behövs vill vi gärna att du anmäler dig senast måndagen 31.10 till Bernt Österman, bernt.osterman(a)helsinki.fi. Arrangörer är arbetsgruppen för von Wright, von Wright och Wittgenstein-arkivet vid HU samt SLS, med stöd från Svenska Kulturfonden. http://www.helsinki.fi/wwa/ 31.10.2011 - 02.11.2011
