2nd Philosophical Symposium of the DFG on "Thought Experiments and Narration in Philosophy" (Villa Vigoni, 23.-27.03.2020)

哲学研讨会的目的是促进德语哲学中的模型和示范性哲学讨论，由于哲学研究的日益专业化很少或根本没有出现，这些讨论被用于大学的日常事务中。特别是，为了应对主题的碎片化，一系列研讨会应确保不同学科和方法的代表能够相互进行富有成效的哲学对话。重要的是要确定僵化的论证结构，如有必要，确定停滞不前的辩论，以便在共同交流中产生协同效应，并通过不同的哲学方法进行进一步的讨论。随着对不同学派和学派共同主题的关注，有希望打开各自的视野，激发出富有成效的综合工作。第二次哲学研讨会的主题是“哲学中的思想实验和叙述”。讨论的中心是美国的以下问题：叙事和哲学之间的关系是什么？个别例子和一般哲学理论之间有什么关系？人们能否通过思维实验和叙述获得新的哲学洞察力？科幻小说能在多大程度上处理哲学争论？这些问题将从不同的角度进行讨论，既有系统的，也有哲学的。此外，在研讨会期间，还应该留出空间，让哲学明确地从政治上反思它的工作和交流方式，它的制度框架，以及它未来在社会中和对社会的作用。

The aim of the Philosophical Symposia is to facilitate model and exemplary philosophical discussions in German-language philosophy, which are used in university day-to-day business due to the increasing specialization of philosophical researchrarely or not come about. In particular, in response to the fragmentation of the subject, the series of symposia should ensure that representatives of various disciplines and methods can engage in productive philosophical conversation with each other. It is important to identify rigidified argument structures and, if necessary, stagnant debates, in order to generate synergies for further discussion in a common exchange and via different philosophical approaches.With the focus on a theme shared by different schools and schools of thought, there is the hope to open the respective horizons and to stimulate a productive, synthetic work.The second Philosophical Symposium is dedicated to the theme "Thought Experiments and Narration in Philosophy". At the center of the discussion are u.a. the following questions: What is the relationship between narration and philosophy? What is the relationship between individual examples and general philosophical theories? Can one gain new philosophical insights with thought experiments and narration? How much science fiction can handle philosophical arguments? These questions are to be discussed from different perspectives, both systematic and philosophical.In addition, during the symposium, space should also be given for the explicit political reflection of philosophy on its modes of work and communication, on its institutional framework and on its future role in and for society.
