Interview: Silvia Panizza - What It Means to Pay Attention UCD Centre for Ethics in Public Life

    • Philosophy

Dr Silvia Panizza gives an interview with Dr Christopher Cowley about the public lecture she was going to give as part of the CEPL series, on the deeper ethical import of what you pay attention to and how you do it. How can attention be morally good? Are there good and bad kinds of attention, and good and bad objects of attention? And what does it really mean to attend or to give attention in an ethical manner? This podcast discusses these questions drawing on Dublin-born philosopher Iris Murdoch.

Silvia Panizza is a Teaching Fellow in ethics and Christopher Cowley an Assistant Professor, both at the UCD School of Philosophy. Both are members of the UCD Centre for Ethics in Public Life
