私たちについて
We're a community that practices and discusses philosophy, being free and open to all levels and backgrounds. We offer seminars, a variety of discussion formats, and the occasional lecture / guest speaker.
Many meetings will have fewer RSVPs than people who actually attend. This is because overtime people stop making use of Meetup.com and instead communicate with their groups via Discord, Slack, Zoom, E-mail, or similar You can think of the list of events hosted on this Meetup as advertisements for groups seeking new participants.
Our philosophy offerings are organized and facilitated by volunteers. If you have a philosophy offering - or an offering that compliments the study of philosophy, such as in literature, the sciences, and so on - that you'd like to advertise through this Meetup, please contact the organizer. We're grateful to those who want to enrich Seattle with study and discussion!
Participants must speak, write, and act in a considerate, professional, and respectful manner, and be prepared for the meetings that they attend, having reviewed the materials to the degree necessary to participate. If you haven't reviewed the materials but still wish to attend an event, please consult the event facilitator regarding the best manner for you to be present.
We look forward to studying philosophy together!

Analytic Metaphysics: "The Identity of Indiscernibles," Max Black III
·オンラインオンラインPrimary reading assignment:
- "The Identity of Indiscernibles," Max Black, picking up with A's comment, "You mean any even number of objects."
Suggested supplementary reading assignments:
- We're starting off the new year with an easy assignment - no suggested supplementary readings!
Seminar Description
In this seminar, which meets every other Saturday at 2:00p PT, we read and discuss essays and books about metaphysics from the analytic philosophy tradition. Typically, the primary reading assignment is a single essay or a single chapter from a book, while the suggested supplementary reading assignments are citations from the primary reading assignment.
Our discussions are focused on evaluating and debating the argument presented in the primary reading assignment. Because of this, attendees are expected to have read and understood the primary reading assignment before the meeting begins. The suggested supplementary reading assignments may run to dozens if not hundreds of pages and for this reason it’s not mandatory to have also read these prior to the meeting, though it’s encouraged that attendees read as much of these materials as possible. Those who have not read the primary reading assignment are welcome and may chat in writing with other attendees but may not participate verbally.
The goal of this seminar is to foster understandings of the topics explored by the analytic philosophy tradition related not only to metaphysics but also related topics in epistemology, ontology, logic, the philosophy of language, and the foundations of mathematics and the material sciences. While our intentions are serious, as I hope the formal language of this syllabus has conveyed, our discussions will be a shitshow as only befits the subject matter and its history, reflecting discussions and debates that have been ongoing not only for the relatively short history of analytic philosophy, but the history of philosophy in its entirety.
So please join us for lively, rambunctious, contentious, but hospitable and welcoming investigations into the very foundations of truth and reality!

Friendship and Love — Aristotle's Nicomachean Ethics
·オンラインオンラインWe are live-reading and discussing Aristotle's Nicomachean Ethics, book VIII–IX, which is about friendship, social relations, and love.
.
The prerequisite to this book is our answering for ourselves these questions from the prior books, to which we will briefly review:
.
1. What is a virtue of character {ēthikē aretē}?
2. How does one come to acquire any of it? (E.g. pride, ambition, bravery, gentlemanliness, generosity, candor, fairness, …)
3. From a first-person perspective in being virtuous, how does one feel and what does one see (differently, discursively) in a given situation of everyday living?
4. How does one formulate right desires?
.
.
The project's cloud drive is here, at which you'll find the reading texts, notes, and slideshows.3 人の参加者
