BELUX2 colloquium in epistemology - ?Epistemic normative reasons? 9-10 July, 2014, University of Luxembourg, Institute of Philosophy The workshop is the second in a series of workshops, the BELUX Colloquia in Epistemology, that we organize in an alternating way at the KU Leuven and the University of Luxembourg. We would like to investigate what normative epistemic reasons there might be and how we are to conceive of them, in a teleological or deontic or ... fashion. Talk of normative reasons in practical philosophy is quite well understood, to a certain extent. But normative epistemic reasons are not yet clarified equally well. How the concept(s) of normative epistemic reasons might be defined, and how these reasons might be explained, and explain other things, is the central question of this workshop. The workshop will take place on July, 9-10, 2014 at the Institute of Philosophy, Campus Walferdange, Luxembourg. We start at about 2 p.m. on July 9, and the workshop ends at about 7 p.m. on July 10. Speakers: Nadja El Kassar (ETH Zurich) Frank Hofmann (University of Luxembourg) Chris Kelp (KU Leuven) Clayton Littlejohn (King?s College London) Conor McHugh (University of Southampton) David Owens (University of Reading) Free admission, everybody welcome.
