[Krisztina Biber]

The CEU Department of Philosophy cordially invites you to a talk
(as part of its Departmental Colloquium series)
by
Keith Allen (University of York)
on
Transcendental Naïve Realism & the Problem of Consciousness

Tuesday, 15 January, 2019, 3.30 PM, Nádor 15, Room 103


ABSTRACT

My aim in this talk is to introduce a view that I call transcendental naïve realism. According to naïve realist theories of perception, perceptual experiences are relational. Transcendental naïve realism involves adopting a particular meta-philosophical attitude towards the naïve realist theory of perception: it involves regarding the naïve realist theory of perception from a transcendental stand-point, as providing an account of 'how it is possible' that perceptual experience has the distinctive characteristics that it does. This talk motivates transcendental naïve realism by considering how it provides a way of addressing the problem of consciousness.
