How do I use this calendar?

You can click on an event to display further information about it.

The toolbar above the calendar has buttons to view different events. Use the left and right arrow icons to view events in the past and future. The button inbetween returns you to today's view. The button to the right of this shows a mini-calendar to let you quickly jump to any date.

The dropdown box on the right allows you to see a different view of the calendar, such as an agenda or a termly view.

If this calendar has tags, you can use the labelled checkboxes at the top of the page to select just the tags you wish to view, and then click "Show selected". The calendar will be redisplayed with just the events related to these tags, making it easier to find what you're looking for.

Abstract:

Most philosophers hold that practical reasoning is directed to the future--I may have any of a number of thoughts about what I have done in the past, or about what has happened, and what it means for me, but when I set out to determine what to do next, I look ahead. In this talk, I will argue that the kind of forward-looking thought at the core of practical reasoning is distinctive. Such thought is framed by concerns that are not strictly predictive, even if some aspects of my calculation rely upon working out the expected outcomes of doing this or that sort of thing. Getting straight about the variety of orientation to the future that is crucial to practical reason is, I will urge, crucial to situating work on practical reason in ethics in general.
