Barbara Vetter, "Metaphysical modality as a natural kind" - PACE/KiC Metaphilosophical Talk Series

by Sebastian Horvat

Dear all, The PACE and KiC Projects cordially invite you to the next talk of the Metaphilosophical Talk Series by Barbara Vetter, Freie Universität Berlin Title: Metaphysical modality as a natural kind Date: October 30th, 2025 (Thursday) Time: 16:45-18:15 Location: Seminarraum 1, Hauptgebäude (Tiefparterre, Stiege 9, Hof 3) - Universitätsring 1, 1010 Wien Abstract: What is metaphysical modality? Philosophers disagree deeply about both the nature and the extent of metaphysical modality. How can we, in the presence of such wide-spread disagreement, get a common grip on what it is that we are disagreeing about? I propose an answer to this question that takes „metaphysical modality" to function much like a Kripkean natural kind term, and argue that it best regiments our debate about metaphysical modality. This can be seen as a case study of how to deal with similar disagreements elsewhere in philosophy. I close with some reflections on how widely applicable my approach is beyond the case of metaphysical modality. We look forward to seeing you! Best wishes, The PACE/KiC organising team https://pace.phl.univie.ac.at/ https://www.knowledgeincrisis.com/

Launching of the Feedback Foyer – A Peer Feedback Forum for Work-in-Progress. 10 November

by VD Philosophy

Dear All, The Vienna Doctoral School of Philosophy is launching a new initiative: The Feedback Foyer Peer Feedback for written or oral Work-in-Progress Date: 10 November 2025 Time: 4:00 PM – 6:00 PM Venue: Room 3A NiG The Feedback Foyer aims to foster a culture of peer feedback among early career researchers. It is open to PhD researchers and Advanced Master’s students in Philosophy. The idea is simple: participants can bring a piece of work in progress—written or oral—and receive feedback from peers. In turn, they’ll also offer feedback to others. It’s a chance to the clarity of their ideas, sharpen arguments, and exchange views in an informal setting. Participants Can Expect To: - Learn and practice how to give constructive feedback - Receive input on your text, presentation, or idea - Try out philosophical arguments in front of a friendly audience Note: The Feedback Foyer does not replace expert supervision. Instead, it gives participants the chance to hear how their work comes across to a wider audience of fellow researchers. Workshop Structure Written Text Feedback 30 min: preparing feedback in small groups 15 min: discussing comments with peers Presentation/Brainstorming Feedback 10 min: individual presentations 15 min: oral peer feedback (Structure may vary depending on the number of participants.) The moderator(s) will: - Form small working groups - Pair participants according to their expertise - Structure the sessions according to participants’ needs There will be time to socialize with snacks and drinks How to Register - Register via u:rise (https://urise.univie.ac.at/mod/booking/optionview.php?optionid=1589&cmid=29…). One week before the workshop, please email vd.philosophy(a)univie.ac.at indicating whether you’d like to receive feedback on: - A written text (max. 5 pages, Times New Roman 12pt, 1.5 spacing), - A presentation, or - A philosophical idea or argument - If you choose written text, send your PDF file to the same email. - If you choose presentation or idea, send a short abstract (max. 250 words) as a PDF file. You are very welcome to participate, and we kindly ask you to spread this invitation to anyone who might be interested. For questions, please contact: vd.philosophy(a)univie.ac.at We look forward to welcoming you to the Feedback Foyer! Warm regards, The Vienna Doctoral School of Philosophy -- MSc. Mag. Raphael Aybar, BA Scientific Coordinator Vienna Doctoral School of Philosophy University of Vienna Universitätsstraße 7, B0301 1010 Wien +43-1-4277-46020 https://vd-philosophy.univie.ac.at/ vd.philosophy(a)univie.ac.at raphael.aybar(a)univie.ac.at

Reminder: Lecture + Workshop Didier Debaise, Thinking Nature (16.10+17.10)

by Ralf Gisinger

Dear colleagues, This is a reminder for the next events of the series THINKING NATURE [1] at the Department of Philosophy, University of Vienna. It will be a two-day lecture and workshop with Didier Debaise (Université Libre Bruxelles), who is joining us in Vienna in person (but online participation is also possible): Thinking Nature: Didier Debaise - Lecture and Workshop [2] Thursday, October 16: Lecture "From Nature to the Earthbounds: Rethinking the Adventure of the Moderns" 18:00-20:00 (CET), Room 3A (NIG) and online Friday, October 17: Workshop "Geophilosophies" 10:00-16:30 (CET), Room 3A (NIG) and online Lecture "From Nature to the Earthbounds: Rethinking the Adventure of the Moderns" (October 16) Abstract: The Moderns are notably defined by their concept of nature. In this talk, I aim to examine the birth, circulation, and normative power of the concept of nature, as well as its current crisis. How was the idea of nature and a natural order invented? To which events was this idea connected? How was it deployed across all levels of Modern experience to become the focal point of all major issues? Finally, how did nature become a political force that now reveals its limitations within the framework of the "new climatic regime"? These questions will be explored through the lens of several thinkers, primarily Whitehead, Deleuze, Stengers, and Latour. Workshop "Geophilosophies" (October 17) Description: Reading and discussion of texts by and with Didier Debaise (Université Libre Bruxelles). Inputs/talks by Christoph Hubatschke (IT:U Linz), Eva Jägle (University of Vienna/ University of Music and Performing Arts), Lilian Kroth (University of Fribourg), Isabella Schlehaider (Academy of Fine Arts Vienna). Texts for the workshop and online participation (Zoom): ralf.gisinger(a)univie.ac.at [3] or eva-maria.aigner(a)univie.ac.at [3] Workshop-texts: - "The earthly becomings of thought. How do we take the legacy of Geophilosophy?" (Deleuze and Guattari Studies) - "The Land of the Modernes. The sense of Latour's Pragmatism" (Theory, Culture and Society) - "An Ethology of Abstractions: Learning How to Cultivate Our Modes of Thought with Stengers" (Adventure of Aesthetics) - (With I. Stengers): "An ecology of trust? Consenting to a pluralist universe" Didier Debaise is professor at the Université Libre Bruxelles. His main areas of research are contemporary forms of speculative philosophy, philosophy of nature, and links between American pragmatism and the French contemporary philosophy. He wrote several books on Whitehead's philosophy (_Un empirisme spéculatif, Le vocabulaire de Whitehead _and _L'appât des possibles_), edited volumes on pragmatism (_Vie et experimentation_), on the history of contemporary metaphysics (_Philosophie des possessions_), and he wrote numerous papers on Bergson, Tarde, Whitehead, Simondon, Deleuze, Latour and Stengers. Two of his books were published in English: _Nature as Event _and_ Speculative Empiricism_. Next Event 2025 Claire Colebrook (Penn State University) _November 21_, 10:00-12:00, online.
