SUMMARY:Denison: 'Field's Challenge and Mathematical Practice'
DESCRIPTION:The Titus-Hepp Lecture Series welcomes Eileen Nutting\, assistant professor of philosophy at the University of Kansas\, presenting "Field's Challenge and Mathematical Practice." Hartry Field raises an epistemological challenge for mathematical platonism: roughly\, if mathematics is about causally inert mathematical objects\, how could mathematicians so reliably get mathematical truths right? But Field's challenge presupposes a deeply misguided picture of mathematical practice. Once this picture is corrected\, Nutting argues\, Field's epistemological challenge pretty much reduces to an older epistemological challenge   due to Paul Benacerraf   that Field was trying to replace.
