CNCC Summer School "Social Cognition and Social Narrative", San Marino

16. 1. 2008 | videné 625-krát
The European Science Foundation and the EUROCORES Programme "Consciousness in a Natural and Cultural Context

(CNCC)" is sponsoring a one-week interdisciplinary collegium/summer school on contemporary research in the area of social cognition, theory of mind, and narrative theory at the University of San Marino in San Marino. See the collegium website at http://www.philosophy.ucf.edu/pcs/smCollegium.html
Organizers: Shaun Gallagher, Dan Hutto, Dan Zahavi.


The collegium/summer school is open to a limited number of graduate students and post-doc researchers interested in theory of mind and the role of narrative and embodied intersubjectivity in our understanding of others. Priority will be given to CNCC-associated students and post-docs. Research presentations, discussions, and tutorial sessions will allow researchers and students to share knowledge and interact. Students will have the opportunity to earn 15 points in the ECTS system.

San Marino is located more than 2,000 feet above the Italian countryside and is possibly the oldest existing republic in the world, with a history of independence dating back to 301 CE.
