Lorraine Code, Distinguished Research Professor Emeritus at York University, will be on campus for two events:

Tuesday, May 17
12:00-1:00pm
Knight Library Browsing Room
to deliver a lecture “Knowing Ethically, Thinking Ecologically” as part of the Ethics Speaker Series; this will in part be an occasion for engaging the work of Rachel Carson in Silent Spring.

Wednesday, May 18
12:00-1:00pm
Columbia Hall 249
In addition to the talk for our Ethics minor, Professor Code will also lead a Brown Bag Seminar in Environmental Studies “Identities, Injustices, and the Social Imaginary.”  In this paper, Professor Code deals with the question of identity, drawing on Linda Alcoff’s “Epistemic Identities” and in contrast to Miranda Fricker’s work on Epistemic Injustice.
