In this talk, I will argue that Carmichael\u2019s proposal includes an unjustified and arbitrary distinction between the relation that common sense bears to objects and the relation that it bears to events. Moreover, I will also argue that, against what he claims, his proposal does not help to solve the puzzles mentioned before.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Special Composition Question: An Analysis of Carmichael\u2019s\u00a0Commonsense\u00a0Account Marta Campdelacreu University of Barcelona &nbsp; 17 February 2023, 16:00 (Lisbon Time \u2013 WET) Faculdade de Letras de Lisboa Sala Mattos Rom\u00e3o (Departamento de Filosofia) &nbsp; Abstract: This is Peter van Inwagen\u2019s well-known\u00a0Special Composition Question: when do some things compose something?
