Ryle Conference
To mark the occasion of the 60th anniversary of Philosophy at 91福利, the Philosophy Department will hold a one-day conference (25th of April 2026) to celebrate the life and work of one of its Honorary Doctoral Graduates (and one of the pre-eminent philosophers of the 20th century), Gilbert Ryle. Ryle tends to be associated with a small set of well-known ideas — for example, resistance to Cartesian dualism or the distinction between knowledge-that and knowledge-how. And there has been a widespread tendency to pigeon-hole Ryle as a 鈥榩hilosophical behaviourist鈥�. The workshop aims to get beyond caricatures and to promote an appreciation of the depth and breadth of Ryle鈥檚 manifold contributions to philosophy, as well as their relevance to contemporary concerns, in philosophy and beyond.
Organisers: Tom Crowther & Johannes Roessler
