Philosophical Issues in Newton and Newtonianism

Connolly, Patrick

Philosophical Issues in Newton and Newtonianism AS.150.684 (01)
The seminar will examine Isaac Newton’s engagement with a number of philosophical topics: the nature of space and time, causation, matter theory, laws of nature, God, and the mind-body problem. The goal will be to understand the development of Newton’s views in response to the work of Descartes, Hobbes, Gassendi, and Henry More as well as the ways in which Newton’s philosophical views informed and were informed by his various scientific and theological commitments. We will also look at the early reception of Newton’s thought, both efforts to further develop it by Newton’s allies and efforts to criticize it by figures like Leibniz.

Seminar: Philosophy of Physics AS.150.653 (01)
Philosophical questions about time have a long history. What is time? Is it something that exists without relation to anything external, or is it merely a measure of change (no change, no time)? How does time differ from space? What is the difference between past and future? Does time flow: and what does that even mean? These kinds of questions were taken up by natural philosophers at least since Aristotle. When physics came into its own as a distinctive sub-enterprise of natural philosophy in the 17th century, these kinds of questions passed into the hands of physics. In this class we will be looking at the way that physics transformed our conception of time, the considerations that drove those developments, and how time as described by physics relates to the seemingly familiar flowing time of everyday sense.

Readings and Skills in Contemporary Philosophy Part I AS.150.822 (01)
This course provides skills training for a successful career in philosophy, through engagement with contemporary work across a wide range of areas of philosophy. As a class, we will choose accessible articles of general interest recently published in top journals. Each student will be responsible for presenting one of these articles to the class and leading discussion, with guidance from the instructors. All students will be required to carefully and closely read each paper for each class, and come prepared to discuss it in depth. The aim of this part of the course is to learn how to read and analyze articles, present work, and engage in constructive philosophical discussion. After presenting the paper, each presenter will be required to write a short reply. As a class, we will then engage in a mock review process, crafting anonymous referee reports, revising replies in the light of these, and writing letters to the editor explaining the revisions. The aim of this part of the course is to gain knowledge and skills relevant to writing philosophy and successful publication. The course is open to 1st and 2nd year Philosophy PhD students only. It will meet every other week in both the fall and the spring semesters; each semester is worth 2 credits and students are required to enroll in both. Grading will be based predominantly on participation and effort
