- 简介：
- Despite the fact that they generally suppose that episodic remembering involves reference to past events, philosophers of memory have only recently begun to turn their attention to mnemic reference. The work that they have done so far, like most recent research in philosophy of memory, has largely taken the framework of the causalist-simulationist debate for granted.

报告介绍：
The goal of this talk is to argue against the second assumption—to show that causalism faces significant difficulties with respect to mnemic reference. It does so by distinguishing among causalist accounts of mnemic reference on the basis of their endorsement of a conception of traces as either contentful or contentless and as either promiscuous or monogamous and showing that the accounts in question are either empirically inadequate, internally incoherent, or intuitively implausible.
报告人介绍：
Kourken Michaelian, Director of Centre for Philosophy of Memory, professor at the Université Grenoble Alpes. His research is mainly in the philosophy of memory. In opposition to the causal theory, according to which remembering an event requires an appropriate causal connection with an earlier experience of the remembered event, he has defended a simulation theory, according to which remembering an event does not require such a causal connection and is, instead, simply a matter of imagining it.
