Il convegno "Verità, Immagine, Normatività" è incentrato sulla filosofia dell'immagine, intesa sia come immagine cognitiva (rappresentazioni mnemoniche, immagini interne a metafore e linguaggi figurati), sia come immagine grafica (rappresentazioni grafiche, disegni). Una riflessione sui linguaggi figurati e sulla comunicazione visiva non linguistica conduce a riformulare in modi nuovi le grandi domande sulle tradizionali nozioni di verità, oggettività, normatività, consenso e persuasione che sono state centrali in diversi contesti disciplinari (epistemologia delle scienze naturali, epistemologia delle scienze sociali, filosofia del diritto ed estetica). In particolare, le tematiche (sia di carattere epistemologico sia di carattere ontologico) che saranno affrontate nel corso del convegno possono essere divise principalmente in due ambiti d'indagine. Il primo ambito concerne il rapporto tra immagine e verità, e specialmente il ruolo dell'immagine (cognitiva e grafica) nella conoscenza scientifica e storica. Il secondo ambito riguarda, invece, il rapporto tra immagine e normatività, privilegiando l'analisi dei disegni normativi e la forza normativa delle immagini.
The conference "Truth, Image, Normativity" focuses on the philosophy of images, both as cognitive image (mnemonic representations, images in metaphors and in figurative languages), and as graphic image (graphic representations, drawings). Reflection on figurative languages and visual non-linguistic communication leads us to reformulate in new ways the great questions about traditional notions like truth, objectivity, normativity, consensus and persuasion that have been central in different disciplinary contexts (epistemology of natural sciences, epistemology of social sciences, philosophy of law and aesthetics). In particular, the main topics (both epistemological and ontological) that will be the focus of the conference can be divided into two fundamental areas of interest. The first area focuses on the relation between image and truth, and especially on the role of image (both cognitive and graphic) in history and natural sciences. The second area deals with the relation between image and normativity, focusing on the analysis of normative drawings and on the normative force of images.
