<span style="margin: 0px; font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, sans-serif; color: black; background: white">What can a naturalistic approach bring to the philosophy of art and film? Can a naturalist aesthetics meet the objections of sceptics and provide a robust
account of art and aesthetic experience? What can naturalism offer to theorizing our emotional engagement with art and film? This event brings together philosophers and film theorists to explore the question of naturalizing aesthetics and how this might help
bridge the divide between the humanities and the sciences. Murray Smith’s<span> </span></span><span style="margin: 0px; font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, sans-serif; color: black; background: white"><i>Film, Art and the Third Culture: A Naturalized Aesthetics
of Film</i></span><span style="margin: 0px; font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, sans-serif; color: black; background: white"><span> </span>(Oxford: 2017) has stimulated much debate in aesthetics and philosophy of film. Alluding to C.P. Snow’s famous account of
the adversarial ‘two cultures’ (scientific and humanistic) and advocacy of a ‘third culture’ combining the two, Smith argues that a naturalized approach to aesthetics has much to offer contemporary philosophical understanding of art and the philosophical theorization
of film. Philosophers and film theorists will address key claims in Smith’s work on the naturalization of aesthetics and examine how this might help us advance inquiry into the aesthetics of film.</span></p>

<span style="margin: 0px; font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, sans-serif; color: black; background: white">Other symposium presentations will address the topic of naturalizing aesthetics from a variety of theoretical perspectives (cognitivism, phenomenology, film
theory, literary theory moral psychology, and so on). Participants will explore how a naturalistic approach informs their work on art and culture but also what art and culture requires us to consider when using naturalistic approaches. Topics to be address
include naturalism and aesthetics, theorising cinematic experience from a naturalistic perspective, the role of emotional engagement in evaluating cinema, and cognitive approaches to narrative and literature.</span></p>
