Mini-Heap
A new Mini-Heap…
- Are philosophers underestimating the epistemic usefulness of imagination? — Madeleine Hyde (Stockholm) provides some reasons to think so
- “I place a lot of good things under the heading ‘irrationality'” — Justin E. H. Smith (University of Paris, Diderot) is interviewed at Vox about “the dark side of reason”
- One problem may be that “the two sides are talking past each other” — a response to a recent criticism of the gender-critical view, by Sophie Allen (Keele)
- Mapping disagreement over freedom of speech — Martin Lenz (Groningen) explores what we can learn by distinguishing two conceptions of what speech is
- Teaching a philosophy course on the future — Leigh Johnson (Christian Bros. Univ.) provides a helpful guide on why to do it and what to assign
- Not from The Onion: Professor who sexually harassed a student will teach course on how “boundaries… limit the possibility of experience” — Avital Ronell (NYU) will be back in the classroom this Fall
- “I’m lucky to have gotten a tenure-track job, but… I’m still not sure it was worth it, all things considered” — thoughts on what it takes to finally “succeed” in the philosophy job market, from Marcus Arvan (Tampa)
Mini-Heap posts appear when 7 or so new items accumulate in the Heap of Links, the ever-growing collection of items from around the web that may be of interest to philosophers.
The Heap of Links consists partly of suggestions from readers; if you find something online that you think would be of interest to the philosophical community, please send it in for consideration for the Heap. Thanks!
