3/8 Annual Logic Lecture: Denis Hirschfeldt
Annual Logic Lecture: Denis Hirschfeldt
Friday, March 8th, 202402:00 PM MCHU 201 & ZoomAbstract
Many mathematical principles can be stated in the form “for all X such that C(X) holds, there is a Y such that D(X,Y) holds”, where X and Y range over second-order objects, and C and D are arithmetic conditions. We can think of such a principle as a problem, where an instance of the problem is an X such that C(X) holds, and a solution to this instance is a Y such that D(X,Y) holds. I will discuss notions of reducibility between such problems coming from the closely-related perspectives of reverse mathematics and computability theory.Contact Information:logic@uconn.edu

3/27 UCHI Talk: Julian Schloeder on the Inauthentic Self
UCHI Talk: Julian Schloeder on the Inauthentic Self
Wednesday, March 27th, 202403:30 PM - 04:30 PM Homer Babbidge LibraryAlthough these are common phrases, it is somewhat unclear what it is to “be something one is not” or to “not be one’s authentic self.” There is, after all, no other source of selfhood than who one actually is. One also owes to no-one a particular way of being other than to oneself. But given that therefore the self is its own’s only yardstick, how can there be an inauthentic self? Towards an answer, I explore a conception of selfhood as meaning-making. One’s self-narrative creates meaning from bare facticity and is hence is not just something we tell about ourselves, but it is how we articulate our very self. Self-narratives can apprehend themselves as more or less coherent meaning-makers, so a self can fall short of its own standards. From this theoretical standpoint, I explore how stereotypes inflict damage onto selves by standing in the way of meaning-making, and how coming out as a queer identity is to create meaning from incoherence.
Julian J. Schlöder is an assistant professor of philosophy at the University of Connecticut. They studied philosophy, mathematics, and logic at the Universities of Bonn and Amsterdam, receiving their doctorate in 2018. They are a co-author of the monograph Reasoning with Attitude (Oxford UP, 2023).
