Here I begin to defend the pluralist theory of perception, which says that my perception essentially involves two radically different kinds of direct awareness-of that are exercised in concert. First, I deploy a successful sensory representation of the mango and some of its property-instances. This explains various differences between perception and hallucination. Second, I have deep awareness of certain universals, in a way that reveals part ? but not all ? of their essences. This explains various similarities between perception and hallucination. In this talk, I focus especially on defending the pluralist theory as it pertains to deep awareness.----------------------michael.nielsen at sydney.edu.au is inviting you to a scheduled Zoom meeting.

Please find more details about the talk and the Zoom link below.-----------------Towards an Intellectual Biography of George MarkusJohn Grumley (Sydney)Abstract. Retired from Philosophy at the University of Sydney in 1998 (teaching pro bono till 2001), Professor George Markus joined us in 1978. Highly respected amongst his immediate colleagues within the 'Budapest School', other stars at the apex of world philosophy (Jurgen Habermas, Zygmunt Bauman, Martin Jay, Richard Bernstein, Michel Lowy, Johann Arnason) also recognised him as one of their own. Formed in the 1950s around Gyorgy Lukacs's project of rehabilitating a humanist Marxism, members of the Budapest School became political refugees from the mid 1970s. Some were dismissed from their lecturing positions and six of the key figures moved to Australia in the late 1970s. Markus stayed with the Department of Philosophy in Sydney for the rest of his life, despite inducements first to join the New School for Social Research in New York in the 1970s and later to the ANU in the mid 1990s. As Seyla Benhabib once observed. George Markus 'was a special person' and, as anyone who had the privilege of being taught by him or working with him knows, he was an exceptional and original mind. Why, then, did Markus achieve a relatively modest public profile? This paper will begin by drawing on some observations from his biography and his philosophical temperament to explain this riddle. This project of making some sense of Markus will of necessity require us to talk a bit about the history of the Department of Philosophy at the University of Sydney during a tumultuous political and social decade. Markus often said that the history of philosophy a ceaseless debate amongst the schools of philosophy. As a participant in those lively years, first as a student and then as a staff member, my account of this period is bound to be controversial. In the second part of the paper, I make a case for the remaining contemporaneity of his work by comparing it to the two great late twentieth century exponents of critical theory: Jurgen Habermas and Michel Foucault. This is also bound to provoke discussion.-----------------michael.nielsen at sydney.edu.au is inviting you to a scheduled Zoom meeting.
