KAZIMIERZ NATURALISM WORKSHOP 2008

September 6th - 10th 2008

Kazimierz Dolny, Poland

 

Invited key speakers

Susan Stuart (University of Glasgow, UK)

David Papineau (King's College London, UK)

Susan Haack (University of Miami, USA)

Peter Gärdenfors (Lund University, Sweden)

Ingo Brigandt (University of Alberta, Canada)

Naturalism is currently the most vibrantly developing approach to philosophy, with naturalised methodologies being applied across all the philosophical disciplines. While discussions over the appropriateness of naturalist assumptions are ongoing, many philosophers are simply forging ahead with a range of interdisciplinary projects that show how philosophy and various sciences such as biology, psychology and cognitive science can work hand in hand. The workshop aims to further the development of naturalism through focussed, friendly discussion in the relaxed atmosphere of a picturesque historical town.

Kazimierz Dolny lies on the Vistula, about a hundred and twenty kilometres south east of Warsaw, the closest international airport and railway hub. A minibus will be organised to take workshop participants from Warsaw to Kazimierz and back at the start and end of the workshop. If arriving on a different date, it will be necessary to make your own way down to Kazimierz.

Apart from the minibus, the easiest way to reach Kazimierz from Warsaw is by train to Pulawy and then either by taxi or by bus to Kazimierz. The trains to Pulawy run from the Warsaw Central station every two and a half hours or so (if arriving at the airport, the best way to reach the central station is by bus 175 - the ticket is 2.40 PLN). It is best to use the on-line rail route planner (leaving 'Warszawa Centralna' arriving 'Pulawy Miasto') to find out the exact times the trains run. The cost of the rail ticket is under 30 PLN in second class and under 45 PLN in first class.

In Pulawy there is a taxi stand just outside the station. The trip to Kazimierz is only 14 km (about 35 PLN).

An important tip: Do not, by mistake, go to the 'other' Kazimierz, which is a suburb of Krakow.
