NEW: accompanying Reading Cycle
in addition to the APSE talk by Laura Caponetto (University of Milan) "Refusing - and refusing to obey" we want to kindly invite you to our accompanying Reading Circle. It will take place right before the talk in the same room, so:
Thursday, 16.01.2025, 1-3 pm, HS 3A
We will focus our discussion on the text: Caponetto, L. (2023) "The pragmatic structure of refusal" Synthese 201:187.
As introduction to the field, we suggest: Green, M. (2020) . Speech acts. In E. N. Zalta (Ed.), The Stanford encyclopedia of philosophy (Fall 2021 Edition). plato.stanford.edu/archives/fall2021/entries/speech-acts/
