Luc Bovens, professor of philosophy, politics, economics, UNC-Chapel Hill will speak on “What Is This Thing Called Love?” Thursday, Sept. 28 at 5:00 p.m. in Tribble Hall B316.

Abstract: What accounts for the constancy of love? What explains the pangs of love lost? How might one overcome the pangs of love lost?  I try to offer answers to these questions within feature-based, feature-free, and connection-based models of love and distinguish between reflectively endorsable and irreverent variants of these models. The talk builds on the material in Chapter 3 on Love in my book Coping: A Philosophical Guide (OpenBook Publishers, 2021).
