Várdy Péter: Platón, Euthüdemosz

by Laszlo E. Szabo

Platón, Euthüdemosz Várdy Péter 2002 április 18.-május 16. között Várdy Péter (Twente, Hollandia) öt előadást tart Platón Euthüdemosz c. dialógusáról. Ez a komédia jellegű, hangsúlyozottan színpadias dialógus Platón középperiódusából származik. A Lykeion birkózóiskolájában folyik a szócsata, egyben vetélkedés Athén ifjúságáért. Témája: a tudomány, a platonikus filozófia magvát érinti. A dialógus Szókratészt és az igaz életvitel kérdéskörét két szofista fivér szemfényvesztésével szembesíti. Előadásaink témái: 1. a dialógus felépítése; 2. szofista érvelési minták; 3. a cáfolók cáfolata: Szókratész eredeti érve, az öncáfolat; 4. önreferencialitás; 5. nevetség, gúny, irónia és az abszolútum. Az előadások mindig csütörtöki napokon 17-19 –ig lesznek a BME Stoczek épület IV.emelet 27-ben. Minden érdeklődőt szívesen lát a BME Filozófia és tud. tört. Tanszéke. -- Laszlo E.

PHILOSOPHY OF SCIENCE COLLOQUIUM, John Collier

by Laszlo E. Szabo

Department of History and Philosophy of Science Eotvos University Budapest, Pazmany P. setany 1/A PHILOSOPHY OF SCIENCE COLLOQUIUM (http://hps.elte.hu/seminar) ________________________________________________ 15 April 4:00 PM 6th floor 6.54 (Language: English) Evolutionary Moral Realism John Collier Konrad Lorenz Institute for Evolution and Cognition Research, Altenberg, Austria Moral realism is the view that moral kinds, such as values, obligations, rights, duties and the like, are objective kinds that ground moral "oughts". Moral naturalism is the view that moral kinds can best be explained in naturalistic terms. The evolutionary version of moral naturalism holds that evolutionary explanations are central to satisfactory naturalistic explanations of morality. Evolutionary moral realism holds that there are moral natural kinds that can ground moral "oughts", and that these kinds are best explained in evolutionary terms. In previous work we have argued that evolutionary naturalism can be objective: John Collier and Michael Stingl, "Evolutionary Naturalism and the Objectivity of Morality", Biology and Philosophy 8 (1993): 47-60, reprinted in Paul Thompson, ed., Issues in Evolutionary Ethics, SUNY Press, Albany, 1995, pp. 409-429. In this talk I will discuss what is at stake, and how our view differs from other moral naturalisms that try to reduce or eliminate moral kinds. In particular, I will discuss why giving an evolutionary explanation of morality does not need to commit the "is/ought" fallacy. ___________________ The organizer of the seminar: László E.

A matematikus szamara sem az axiomaknak, sem a beloluk levezetett allitasoknak nincs jelentese, es nincs igazsaga. A matematikus dolga a levezetes maga. Sokaig ugy tunt, hogy a Hilbert-fele formalista/axiomatikus program a dolgokat a helyere teszi, mignem 1931-ben egy fiatal Becsi matematikus, Kurt Godel kozzetette az "Uber formal unentscheidbare Satze der Principia Mathematica und verwandter Systeme" cimu dolgozatat. Altalanos velekedes szerint, Godel eredmenyei lehetetlenne tettek a formalista program folytatasat. Tenyleg igy van-e? Hol tartunk most? Hogyan is kell pontosan ertekelnunk Godel teteleit?

Some of the critics of the classical view have even claimed that this view has failed not only as a psychological theory but also as a methodological prescription in natural sciences (especially in biology). Taken seriously, their claim implies that the search for well-defined concepts in science is generally misleading. Most scientists, however, would hardly agree with such a verdict. Is the criticism against the classical view so unproblematic as it is seen to be today? The aim of this presentation is to denounce some broadly accepted myths concerning the so-called classical view and its alleged main flaws. ___________________ The organizer of the seminar: Lszl E.

ELTE Fizika Tanszekcsoport ORTVAY KOLLOKVIUM 2001. marcius 21., csut. 15:00 Az ELTE Pazmany P. s. 1/A 1. emelet 1.69 E. S z a b o L a s z l o MTA-ELTE Elmeleti Fizikai Tanszeki Kutatocsoport ELTE TTK Tudomanytortenet es Tudomanyfilozofia Tanszek A relativitaselmelet tokeletesen azonos a relativitaselmelet elotti fizikaval Poincare konvencionalista allaspontja szerint nem lehet empirikusan eldonteni, hogy melyik a terido helyes geometriaja, mert a terido geometriaja es a fizikai elmeletek csak egyutt vethetok ossze a kiserleti eredmenyekkel. Vizsgalodasainkat a specialis relativitaselmeletre korlatozva, meg fogjuk mutatni, hogy a relativitaselmelet es a klasszikus (nem-relativisztikus) fizika nem passzol bele ebbe a kepbe. De nem azert nem, amiert a legtobben hiszik, hogy tudniillik a kiserleti tenyek alapjan kulonbseget tudnank tenni a relativisztikus es a klasszikus fizika kozott! Eppen ellenkezoleg, azt fogjuk megmutatni, hogy a relativitaselmelet es a nem-relativisztikus fizika egymassal teljesen azonos. Meghozza abban a -- fizikus szamara egyedul elfogadhato ertelemben, hogy ugyanazon fizikai mennyisegek ertekerol ugyanazt allitjak (beleertve a ter- es idokoordinatakat is). A relativitaselmelet es a klasszikus fizika kozott csupan lingvisztikai kulonbseg van. Minden erdeklodot szivesen latunk! Az eloadás elott negyed oraval a 1.69 sz. terem bejárata elott teat szolgalunk fel. Az eloadas-sorozatról az interneten az "ortvay-koll.elte.hu" cimen talalhato informacio. -- Laszlo E.
