Dear Colleagues,
We kindly remind you of the upcoming conference 'Theory-Ladenness of
Experience' which will take place at Heinrich-Heine Universitaet
Duesseldorf (Faculty of Philosophy, Building: 23.21, Room: 00.46a),
March 10-11, 2011.
The aim of the conference is to bring together philosophers,
psychologists and cognitive scientists whose work contributes to our
understanding of the scope and limits of theory-ladenness phenomena,
where these are broadly construed to include the domains of perception,
scientific evidence and language. Related topics to be discussed: the
modularity of mind, nonconceptual content, the epistemology of evidence
and the semantics of observational terms.
Invited Speakers:
William Brewer (Illinois)
Allan Franklin (Colorado)
Martin Kusch (Vienna)
Robert McCauley (Emory)
Athanassios Raftopoulos (Cyprus)
Markus Werning (Bochum)
