The Academic Writing Workshop “From First to Final Draft: Revising Academic Texts” will focus on strategies for revising and finalizing academic texts. The workshop covers the different aspects and stages of reworking and revising academic texts at PhD level. This includes recognizing issues and translating feedback into concrete issues. We will cover structural revisions (paragraphs, connecting paragraphs, argumentation structure), reading flow, style (personal/impersonal, vague/precise), positioning (critique of sources, confident position), and succinctness (concise phrasing to reduce word count). The workshop is tailored to PhD-Students, but master’s students are also welcome to join. To register, please send a short email to lisa.tragbar(a)univie.ac.at, indicating whether you would like to join online or in person. The zoom link will be sent out about an hour in advance.

They are accessible to philosophy PhD candidates, advanced master's students, or anyone in between. On Tuesdays*, 15:00-19:00, it's writing o'clock in Room 3A. Each Writing Evening consists of 4 writing sessions, each session comprises 50 minutes of writing and 10 minutes of peer interaction/break. There will be snacks.

Tim Button, "Artefacts of Representational Choices" - PACE Metaphilosophical Talk Series

by Vienna Doctoral School of Philosophy

Dear all, The PACE Project cordially invites you to the next talk of the Metaphilosophical Talk Series by Tim Button, University College London Title: Artefacts of Representational Choices Date: October 8th, 2024 (Tuesday) Time: 16:45-18:15 Location: Room 3B, NIG, Universitätsstraße 7, 1010 Wien Abstract: Kant asked: how is metaphysics so much as possible? Quine answered: because metaphysics is broadly continuous with science. But Quine's answer gives us no reason to think that "joint-carving" metaphysics is possible. Joint-carvers want our theoretical primitives to keep track of what is metaphysically primitive (or fundamental, as opposed to derivative). But we have no reason to think that such a thing is possible. To explain why, I'll offer some general considerations, a particular case study (about space), and a logical argument. The upshot of all of these is that we always end up with (arbitrary) artefacts of representational choices. We look forward to seeing you then!

Invitation: Trans*formations talk by Eric Llaveria Caselles, October 18.

by Raphael Gustavo Aybar Valdivia

Dear all, it is my pleasure to invite you to the third installment of the Trans*formations talk series organized by the Vienna Doctoral School of Philosophy at the Institute of Philosophy, University of Vienna, which provides insights into recent developments in trans* philosophizing. This time, Eric Llaveria Caselles, currently working at the Center for Interdisciplinary Women and Gender Studies (ZIFG) at the Technical University Berlin, will give a talk titled "Epistemic Violence and Trans Theory. A Cartography of Minor Truths." When: Friday, October 18th 2024 15:00 - 16:30 Where: HS 3B, 3. Stock Neues Institutsgebäude (NIG), Universitätsstraße 7, 1010 Wien Abstract: For the transsexual subject to be able to emerge as a source of credible speech, a fundamental critique of the western epistemic and symbolic order had to gain traction. When Susan Stryker stood up at a Lesbian and Gay History conference in New York in 1995 and yelled “I am a transsexual and I am not sick!”, she reclaimed the participation of the transsexual intellectual in the production of truths, refuting discourses of dehumanization. This inaugural scene of Trans Studies places the undoing of epistemic violence as both a precondition and a fundamental commitment of trans theoretical practice. But what does this commitment to emancipatory forms of knowledge production entail? What are the contradictions of aspiring to anti-normative purity? What conversations can we build on the repeated condemnation of those reproducing symbolic violence? Does this commitment not miss the practical reason of cultural narratives? And is it possible to separate the epistemic violence from our sense of self, our needs and desires? Do the voices of trans people really hold the key to an emancipatory meaning? And if we betray the idea that we just need to let trans people speak, what then can hold the possibility of undoing epistemic violence? In this talk, I reflect on these questions based on my own research trajectory, which spans topics such as trans subcultural spaces, neuroscientific studies of (trans)gender identity and trans social reproduction in global capitalism. The talk traces the shifts of my theoretical practice by building a personal cartography of minor truths. I take the term “minor truths” from the title of a show by the artist Spence Messih. Their glasswork compositions and philosophical considerations introduce a phenomenological sensibility in my analysis, inspiring me to search for a language that reflects the inseparability of theoretical standpoint from affective states, social relationships and political conjunctures. In conversation with Messih’s work, the talk evolves in a non-linear motion connecting five modes of epistemic experience: abstraction, vulnerability, praxeology, dialogue and betrayal. Bio: Eric Llaveria Caselles is a PhD Candidate at the Center for Interdisciplinary Women and Gender Studies (ZIFG) at the Technical University Berlin. His recent publications explore the limitations of gender identity positivism and queer deconstructivism as the two main approaches to trans theory. His research builds on current trans Marxist proposals and historical materialist traditions of gender theory to set the groundwork for an alternative framework in Trans Studies.

Physics meets Philosophy Talk - Tomasz Bigaj: "Identity of indiscernibles and modern physics", September 23, 11:30

by Raphael Gustavo Aybar Valdivia

Dear all, I am pleased to hereby invite you to the next "Physics meets Philosophy" talk: Time: 23/09 (Monday) at 11:30 Location: Room 2H, NIG Universitätsstraße 7/2nd floor Speaker: Prof Tomasz Bigaj (University of Warsaw) Title: Identity of indiscernibles and modern physics (see abstract below) In case you are not able to attend the event in person, you can connect via the following Zoom link: https://univienna.zoom.us/j/63418578318?pwd=h3u23UdTLw6hbrJqE8yPBHHKaeanHj.1 Meeting-ID: 634 1857 8318 Password: 166689 Abstract: The metaphysical principle of the identity of indiscernibles states that any two distinct objects must differ qualitatively. The exact meaning and validity of this principle depends on how precisely we define qualitative difference between objects. There are several options considered in the philosophical literature, which I will briefly outline. Subsequently I will pose the question of the purported violation of this principle in modern physical theories, primarily in quantum mechanics. It is often argued that the symmetrization postulate regarding systems of so-called identical particles forces us to abandon the identity of indiscernibles in its strongest form. I will show that this is by no means a forgone conclusion. There are some formal methods of individuating quantum particles of the same type which enable us to distinguish them qualitatively in the majority of experimental situations. I will also briefly discuss the status of the principle in the physical theories of space-time. In this context the principle is threatened primarily by the apparent existence of distinct but qualitatively indistinguishable models of space-time, connected by underlying symmetries of theories, such as the Galilean symmetries of classical mechanics or diffeomorphisms of general relativity. One solution to this challenge is to adopt the position of relationism with respect to spacetime. I will argue that it is possible to identify the symmetry-connected models without abandoning the view that spacetime is an independent substance.
