*Final call for registration: Reference in Remembering Workshop* Dear colleagues, We would like to remind you of the upcoming Reference in Remembering Workshop, to be held *in-person* at the Centre for Philosophy of Memory (Grenoble, France) on June 30–July 2, 2022. A full schedule of talks can be found below. Colleagues interested in attending should please contact me by email [james.opens...@univ-grenoble-alpes.fr] to register as soon as possible. Website: http://phil-mem.org/events/2022-reference.php Organisers: James Openshaw; Kourken Michaelian; Denis Perrin. This workshop is funded by the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme under the Marie Sklodowska-Curie grant agreement (no. 101032391), and also by the CNRS GDR Mémoire, the Institut de Philosophie de Grenoble, and the Centre for Philosophy of Memory. 1. THEME Episodic memory enables us to consciously ‘relive’ experienced events from our past. You might remember making coffee this morning and sensorily recall what it was like to smell the coffee grounds or to see the kettle reach a boil. Success in this activity requires that there be a certain relationship between your present act of remembering and the past event in question. First, something must ‘fix’ or determine that your memory is about that particular event, rather than, say, a similar event the previous morning. Second, the memory must be suitably accurate. By analogy, success in uttering ‘This is blue’ requires, for its evaluability, that ‘This’ refers to a particular object and, for its truth, that the predicate accurately characterises the referred-to object. Though these observations are simple, what we might call the *reference-fixing* and *accuracy* conditions of episodic remembering remain obscure. The thriving work on memory in philosophy and the sciences suggests that continued progress requires more attention—and new approaches—to these particular issues. The primary aim of the workshop is to cast new light on the multi-faceted relationship between reference, singular thought, and remembering by bringing together, for the first time, researchers specialising on these topics. 2.
