Temple University Philosophy Department virtual colloquium series presents Professor Matthew Boyle, University of Chicago.
Matthew Boyle is Emerson and Grace Wineland Pugh Professor and Chair of the Philosophy Department at the University of Chicago. He works on topics in the philosophy of mind, especially self-knowledge, the nature of rationality, and some questions about the role of rationality in perception and action. He also writes on topics in the history of philosophy, with a particular focus on the works of Immanuel Kant.
Professor Boyle offers a debate between his two Chicago colleagues; Martha Nussbaum and Agnes Callard, about the justifiability of anger as a response to perceived mistreatment.
