SUMMARY:Animal Minds in the Early Modern Age
DESCRIPTION:
"What is an animal? This is one of those questions that p
rove all the more puzzling the more one knows about philosophy”.
The
entry on “animal” of the Encyclopédie wasn’t alone in voicing this predicam
ent. Debates on the nature of animals loomed large throughout the early mod
ern age, and grew to the point of calling into question as fundamental issu
es as the general metaphysics of the mind and the overall epistemology of p
erception. Their far-reaching implications challenged theology, culture and
society at large: suffice it to consider the controversies over the mortal
ity of the soul and the growing concerns over animal exploitation. Early mo
dern thinkers conceived of animals in the most disparate fashions: as blind
pieces of clockwork or, at the opposite, as fully rational beings, capable
of outsmarting humans. Polemics escalated to the point that, by the eighte
enth century, “one cat was enough to disarrange all of philosophy”.
T
he conference investigates the competing theories of the animal mind worked
out from the Italian Renaissance to the German Enlightenment, and their br
oader implications for the philosophical and scientific debates of the time
, all over Europe. The conference intends thereby to provide new insights i
nto the shifting understanding of the human-animal divide and the early mod
ern theory of the mind – indeed, of minds.
