reminder: invitation to a philosophy talk

by Krisztina Biber

The CEU Department of Philosophy cordially invites you to talk by Barbara Montero (CUNY/Staten Island) on An Expert Reflects: Conscious Deliberation in the Art of Chess Friday, 19 June 2009, 3.30 PM, Zrinyi 14 room 412 Abstract: To gain insight into human nature philosophers often discuss the inferior performance that results from such deficits as blindsight, agnosia, or amnesia. Less often do they look at superior abilities. A notable exception to this is Herbert Dreyfus who has developed a theory of expertise according to which expert action proceeds basically automatically and unreflectively. And this, as he sees it, suggests that our uniquely human freedom to step back and reflect upon our actions is actually rather insignificant to our lives. I question Dreyfus's starting point. Contrary to Dreyfus who argues that "the enemy of expertise is thought," I shall argue that, at least in chess, an expert reflects.
