Shaw Department of Philosophy Dr. Anand J. Vaidya Department of Philosophy Dr. Richard L. Tieszen Department of Philosophy ABSTRACT THE EVIDENTIAL WEIGHT OF CONSIDERED MORAL JUDGMENTS by Christopher Michael Cloos The input objection to reflective equilibrium (RE) claims that the method fails as a method of moral justification. According to the objection, considered moral judgments (CMJs) are not truth-conducive. Because the method uses inputs that are not credible, the method does not generate justified moral beliefs.

  • To the End: Exposing the Absolute
    Filozofski vestnik | Volume XLI | Number 2 | 2020 | 311–340 | doi: 10.3986/fv.41.2.12 Frank Ruda* To the End: Exposing the Absolute “Toute infinité requiert une errance.”1 “The task is indeed to demonstrate what the absolute is. But this demonstration cannot be either a determining or an external reflection by virtue of which determinations of the absolute would result, but is rather the exposition of the absolute.”2 “Notez que je suis absolument immanentiste.”3 Introduction The Immanence of Truths is the vineyard in which all the labour of the reader of the first two Being and Event volumes finally, and one might dare to say, ab- solutely pays off. And – as in the famous Jesus parable – those who start with the last volume will receive just as much as those who started years and years ago. Everyone will have received the same currency, notably orientation – and especially a reader of Badiou’s last systematic volume is enabled to see what has any real value – and this means “absolute value.”4 For this reason alone, time does not matter much for the currency that the absolute provides us, as it is that “which in time exceeds time.”5 Yet, the peculiar place where this absolute value 311 system is formulated is difficult to locate. It is close by,6 yet and at the same time it does not exist in any standard sense of the term. The place of the absolute is 1 Alain Badiou, L’Immanence des vérités.

I. INSight, CONSISTENCY, AND PLANS FOR LiviNG Jonathan Haidt, the social psychologist, entitles a fascinating article “The Emotional Dog and Its Rational Tail.” His topic is moral judgment, and the emotional dog is what he calls “intuition.” Mostly, he argues, we don’t arrive at our moral conclusions by reasoning. We jump to them with emo- tional judgments, with “affectively valenced intuitions,” as he puts it. We will often be firmly convinced that our moral judgments rest on sound reasoning, and that unless others are driven by bias, they will appreciate the force of our arguments.

For more information, please contact [email protected]. 1 “For Me, Film is Face”: Self and Identity in the Films of Ingmar Bergman Brad Mitchell Spring 2016 2 I. Introduction The filmography of Ingmar Bergman is often described in terms whose aptness is hard to deny, but whose connotations can be a bit hazier – “dark,” “serious,” and “melodramatic” are often used to describe his films, doubtless due to particular themes reoccurring throughout his works. Repeatedly expounded are ideas of life and death, God and Satan, light and darkness. These ideas sometimes manifest themselves literally, such as the character of Death in The Seventh Seal, and sometimes exist as struggles his characters face, such as a priest’s crisis of faith in Winter Light or Isak Borg’s struggle with living in Wild Strawberries. At other times these ideas are shown directly to the viewer on the screen: cinematographer Sven Nykvist, who worked with Bergman on many of his films, reportedly sat in the church where Winter Light was filmed for an entire winter day in order to observe how the light moved throughout the space.

    Philosophy 34: Normative Ethics Matthew Silverstein Spring 2008 Contact Information Office: 204 Cooper House Office Hours: Tuesday, 2:00–5:00 pm, and by appointment Email: [email protected] Phone: (413) 542-8310 Course Description Is anything to be said in a principled way about right and wrong, or good and bad? We will examine a number of positive and negative answers to this question. Our primary focus will be on three of the central traditions of Western ethical philosophy, typified by Aristotle, Immanuel Kant, and John Stuart Mill. We will also study one of modern morality’s harshest critics: Friedrich Nietzsche. Along the way, we will look at contemporary discussions of the relation between the demands of morality and those personal obligations that spring from friendships, as well as recent views about the nature of well-being. Course Requirements There will be one short expository paper (2–3 pages) and two longer critical papers (6–8 pages). Preparation and active participation also count towards your grade. Your final grade will be determined as follows: 20% Short Paper 35% Long Paper 1 35% Long Paper 2 5% Preparation 5% Participation Your preparation grade will be a function of unannounced, in-class ten-minute essay assignments. There will be several such assignments over the course of the semester. Their purpose is to ensure that everyone has studied the assigned reading and to encourage thoughtful discussion in class. Though they will not be graded, I will collect them at the end of class. These essays cannot be made up, and unsatisfactory work will receive no credit.
