The Macquarie University Research Centre for Agency, Values, and Ethics (CAVE), and the Macquarie Philosophy Department invite you to the following work-in-progress seminar:
*Luke Russell (Sydney)* *"Forgiving Under Ignorance"* *Date: Tuesday 3 November 2015Time: 13:00 - 14:00* *Venue: W3A 501 (Blackshield Room, Law School), Macquarie University* Should we accept that the victim herself is best positioned to know whether she has forgiven the perpetrator? Often victims of wrongdoing do not know much about the perpetrator, especially about his current attitude towards the wrong action in question. Victims might also be ignorant of relevant facts regarding their own emotional dispositions and their own motives. In this talk I ask whether these kinds of ignorance are a barrier that prevents us from forgiving, and whether they make forgiveness epistemically opaque to the would-be forgiver. All welcome, no registration required.
