Philosophy of Art Criticism Seminar by Irene Martínez https://padlet.com/iremartinezmarin/Bookmarks en-us 2020-10-01 16:30:39 UTC 2025-03-16 08:19:53 UTC hello@padlet.com Tips on Seminar Participation iremartinezmarin https://padlet.com/iremartinezmarin/Bookmarks/wish/795393507 Sometimes it is difficult to know what to say in a seminar. Right? Find below a list of different replies that can be helpful when preparing for discussing a text. *I have also attached a longer document with 21 ways on how to contribute to a philosophical conversation*.

Clarification request. The text claims p, but I don't know what the author means by saying p. Please clarify. Does the author mean by this p', p''...?
Argument request. The author claims p. I think I know what the author means by p. But why does the author claim p? I don't see any argument for p, and I think you need to give an argument for it.
Objection. You claim p (and maybe you argue for it). However, I think that p, (or your argument for p), is problematic. Here's my objection to p (or to your argument for p): q. What do you say in response to q?
Assistance. You claim p. I agree with you that p, but I think the following additional reason (which you do not mention) can be given in support of p: q.
Competing interpretation. You say that the reading claims that p. However, I don't think that this is exactly what it says. Instead, I think it says p' (and here's why I think this).
Suggestion of parallels. You claim p. P (or your argument for p) reminds me of so-and-so's claim that q (or his argument for q). Are the two really similar? Does comparing p to q help illuminate p, or is it just misleading?
