We warmly invite you to join us for a guest lecture by Prof. Stefano Gualeni (University of Malta), titled “On the Conceptual Value of Games“, which will take place on Wednesday, May 6, 2026, at 15:30 in lecture room A101. In this talk, he will argue that games can disclose and challenge theoretical ideas. Approaching games as epistemic artifacts and conceptual devices, he will examine how they can be designed to produce a range of socio-cultural effects, including rhetorical and transformative ones, and will discuss their capacity to contribute to contemporary culture in ways that can be considered intellectually relevant.

Prof. Stefano Gualeni is a philosopher and game designer whose work explores how videogames can function as tools for philosophical inquiry, enabling players to engage with complex conceptual and existential questions through interactive systems. He is the author of several influential books, including Virtual Existentialism: Meaning and Subjectivity in Virtual Worlds (2020, Palgrave Macmillan – with Daniel Vella), Virtual Worlds as Philosophical Tools: How to Philosophize with a Digital Hammer (2015, Palgrave Macmillan), and Fictional Games: A Philosophy of Worldbuilding and Imaginary Play (2023, Bloomsbury – with Riccardo Fassone).

The lecture is part of the course “Philosophy of Play”, but all interested participants are very welcome to attend!

Natalia Karczewska is an Assistant Professor at the University of Warsaw, where she has worked since 2020. She received her PhD in 2019 from the University of Warsaw. Her research interests are in philosophy of language, with a particular focus on subjective and evaluative discourse. She was a visiting student at the Institut Jean-Nicod in spring 2015 and a Fulbright visiting student during the 2015–2016 academic year.

On Wednesday, April 22, 2026, at 14:00 in lecture hall A101, she will deliver two lectures:

Common Ground and Disagreement

Common ground is often understood as the background information shared by participants in conversation (Stalnaker 2002), but there is disagreement about how exactly this notion should be analyzed. Influential proposals treat common ground as a set of possible worlds (Stalnaker 1970), as a structure of mutually recognized beliefs or knowledge states (Bach and Harnish 1979), or as a normative configuration involving commitments or reasons (Lewis 1969). This lecture surveys these competing approaches and asks how well they account for disagreement in conversation. I focus in particular on evaluative disagreement and argue that, when combined with a contextual semantics for predicates such as “good” or “beautiful,” such cases create difficulties for non-normative accounts of common ground. Evaluative disputes suggest that conversational conflict cannot always be explained solely in terms of incompatible beliefs or informational states.

Evaluative Disagreement and Relational Common Ground

This lecture explores a normative alternative to non-psychological and non-modal accounts of common ground. Drawing on recent work by Geurts (2019, 2020), I consider the idea that common ground should be understood relationally, in terms of the commitments that speakers are prepared to undertake, attribute, or reject in conversation. This framework offers a promising way of understanding evaluative disagreement. Rather than treating such disagreement as merely a clash of beliefs or truth-conditions, it can be seen as involving resistance to accepting certain evaluative commitments. I argue that this approach better captures the persistence and significance of disputes about value, even in cases where interlocutors fully understand one another and contextual variation is acknowledged.
