Subject Heading: Dennett Conference: Registration Deadline September 25 Dennett's Philosophy: A Comprehensive Assessment Memorial University, St. John's, Newfoundland, Canada November 6-9, 1998 Information and Electronic Registration at www.ucs.mun.ca/~dennconf Now that Daniel Dennett has synthesized, in three recent volumes, his career's work on philosophy of mind, intentionality, consciousness, evolution, ontology and ethics into a systematic whole, it is time for philosophers to scrutinize the corpus for its coherence and to motivate revisions to it where these seem necessary. The speakers listed below have been selected so as to cover, through their collective expertise, the broad range of Dennett's ideas. Professor Dennett will respond to each plenary paper.
