The series of workshops examines the nature of thought as well as the relationship between nature and thought. Based on developments in “analytic” and “continental” philosophy that are addressing anew Kant’s transcendental philosophy and the history of post-Kantian thought in general, this research seminar engages with the question of how the relationship between mind and world is conceptualized in contemporary thought: in metaphysics and in relation to recent developments in cognitive- and neurosciences. In interrogating key issues of contemporary philosophical research, such as the relationshipbetween concepts and objects or between (philosophical, scientific, or aesthetic) representation and reality, we seek to re-define the relation between science and metaphysics, epistemology and ontology, and to approach the epistemic and ontological constitution of thought and of objectivity. mehr »
