- Sep 274:00 PMECOM Speaker Series: Prof. Mark JaryMark Jary is currently a María Zambrano Research Fellow at the Department of Linguistics and Basque Studies in the University of the Basque Country (UPV/EHU). He is also Emeritus Professor in Linguistics and Philosophy at the University of Roehampton (London, UK), where he taught Linguistics and Philosophy of Language for over 20 years. He received his PhD in Linguistics from University College London and has written extensively on subjects relating to linguistic mood, speech acts and associated topics. As well as articles in journals such as Mind and Language and Linguistics and Philosophy, he has published three books: Assertion (Palgrave, 2010), Imperatives (CUP, 2014 – co-authored with Mikhail Kissine) and Nothing is Said (OUP, 2022). Abstract: What is what is said? The models of utterance interpretation that we build will be determined to a significant extent by how we characterise linguistic communication. The dominant characterisation sees linguistic communication as a case of saying something and thereby conveying both what is said and something extra. Given this characterisation, a model of linguistic communication is required to have what is said as an output of the process of interpretation, or of some sub-part of this. In this talk, I present an alternative characterisation of utterances in terms of pairs of situation types linked by a situation-theoretic constraint (in the sense of Barwise and Perry, 1983). Because this characterisation makes no mention of saying, any appeal to what is said in a model of linguistic communication must be independently motivated. Building on ideas developed in Nothing is Said (OUP, 2022), I will suggest that such motivation is not readily available, and that we are better off thinking of what is said as a second-order reflective category, rather than as a fundament of linguistic communication.

- Sep 274:30 PMForeign Policy Seminar "Americans in a World at War: Intimate Histories from the Crash of Pan Am's Yankee Clipper" with Brooke BlowerBrooke Blower received her PhD from Princeton and is currently Associate Professor of History at Boston University. Her latest book is "Americans in a World at War: Intimate Histories from the Crash of Pan Am's Yankee Clipper" (Oxford University Press, 2023). Please join us as she speaks about it, focusing on stories of noncombatants aboard a seaplane bound for Lisbon in 1943. Attendance in person is welcome, and you may also join virtually at https://tinyurl.com/mr23w8h4 (https://tinyurl.com/mr23w8h4). Please note: Prior registration for the virtual meeting is required!
- Sep 275:00 PM150th Foreign Policy Seminar with Brooke Blower (BU)Professor Blower's research focuses on modern American political culture, travel, and war especially in urban and transnational contexts. Her most recent book is Americans in a World at War: Intimate Histories from the Crash of Pan Am's Yankee Clipper(Oxford University Press, 2023). Combat GIs dominate the history of Americans abroad during World War II. But these soldiers constituted only a small fraction of the unprecedented millions of Americans stationed on six continents, both in and out of uniform, during the twentieth century's signal conflict. Americans in a World at War tells a panoramic story of seven worldly noncombatants, their personal histories, their politics, and the paths that led them to all board the same seaplane bound for Lisbon in February 1943. When the Yankee Clipper crashed in the Tagus River, it took five of their lives but left a paper trail that leads to a richer, deeper understanding of the cross-cutting political and ideological dimensions of Americans' war efforts. Reception starts at 4:30pm; the talk will begin at 5pm. Please RSVP to Prof. Frank Costigliola if you would like to join us for dinner.
