SUMMARY:Understanding ourselves and others: reasoning and rationality (RCCR Summer Seminar Series)
DESCRIPTION:Understanding ourselves and others: reasoning and rationality (summing up)\, Emma Borg\nReflections on this year’s Summer Seminar Series from Emma Borg\, Director of the Reading Centre for Cognition Research and Professor of Philosophy at University of Reading. \nThis seminar is part of The Reading Centre for Cognition Research’s 2021 Summer Seminar Series: Understanding ourselves and others: reasoning and rationality \nThe aim of this seminar series is to explore these newer approaches to reasoning and rationality\, looking at cutting edge work in the area and asking what these moves might tell us about how we go about understanding the actions of others and ourselves. \nA standard picture of humans as generally ordered and orderly thinkers has come under significant pressure in recent years\, in particular from the work of Kahneman and others who have stressed our susceptibility to a range of cognitive traps (such as framing or bias). Although the claim commonly associated with this school of thought – that we are ‘predictably irrational’\, in Ariely’s phrase – has been rejected by many\, even those who seek to defend our status as good reasoners often suggest a more complex and potentially messy set of processes\, mechanisms and features than those standardly appealed to in classic folk psychological approaches. \nAll welcome! \nIf you have any questions\, please email Emma Borg e.g.n.borg@reading.ac.uk \nMicrosoft Teams meeting – join here \nresearch.reading.ac.uk/cognition-research/

SUMMARY:Reading Woolf in Europe
DESCRIPTION:Reading Woolf in Europe aims to foster a critical discussion on the cultural mediation of Woolf in European countries and languages with specific focus on how literary institutions (publishing houses and book series\, literary periodicals)\, literary agents (translators\, literary agents\, editors)\, and the composite sociocultural factors driving the selection\, production\, and publication of Woolf’s works “socially framed” the reading of her works and shaped her readers through processes of popularization and canonization in the literary systems in Europe. \nKeynote speakers: Claire Davison (Professor of Modernist Studies at Université Sorbonne Nouvelle)\, Nadia Fusini (Professor of Comparative Literature at Scuola Normale Superiore\, Pisa)\, Daniel Göske (Professor for American Literature at Universität Kassel)\, and Laura Lojo-Rodríguez (Senior lecturer at the University of Santiago de Compostela). \nOrganizers: Elisa Bolchi\, Daniela La Penna\, Nicola Wilson \nView the programme here. \nFor further details\, please visit: https://research.reading.ac.uk/italian-woolf/conference/ \nTo register\, please visit: https://www.eventbrite.it/e/reading-woolf-in-europe-registration-154530710515
