概述

This advanced postgraduate course introduces students to key questions in contemporary philosophy of memory. The notion of remembering an event in one’s personal past at first seems relatively straightforward. Most of us have vivid memories of our pasts, and intuitively, these memories in some sense make us who we are. But this apparent simplicity of personal memory hides a number of puzzling philosophical aspects. What is it that we remember when we remember the past? Is it an event or our previous experience of an event? Is memory merely the preservation of past perceptual content, or is memory also alive to the context of the present? What is the relation between memory and imagination? The course covers these and other questions pertaining to the metaphysics, the epistemology, and the phenomenology of episodic memory, and aims to give students an advanced understanding of some of the main topics of discussion in the current analytic philosophy of memory literature.

教學方式

In the last few years, the philosophy of memory has established itself as a distinct field of research. The goal of this course is to give students knowledge of some of the key theories and ideas in this emerging discipline. A distinctive feature of recent philosophy of memory has been its close engagement with empirical disciplines, such as psychology and neuroscience, which also have memory among their objects of study. Hence by the end of the course students should be comfortable discussing some of the central problems in contemporary philosophy and science of memory, offering critical responses to proposed solutions to these problems, and using their understanding to engage critically with the puzzles of memory.

評分方式

Students are requested to come to each class with 2–3 questions for discussion, and participation will count for 10% of the final grade. Graduate students will be expected to write 10 short reflection pieces (max 500 words each, 50%), and a term paper on a topic of their choice (~3000 words, 40%). Undergraduate students will write 5 short reflections pieces (500 words each, 50%) and a short final paper on a topic of their choice (1500 words, 40%).
