CFP: LOGICA 2001
Jaroslav Peregrin
The Institute of Philosophy, Academy of Sciences of the Czech Republic,
announces the 15th event in the series of annual international symposia
LOGICA 2001
to be held at Liblice Chateau (in central Bohemia)
June 19 - 22, 2001.
Since 1987 the annual LOGICA symposia have become an interdisciplinary
platform for discussion on all relevant aspects of logic among both
internationally renowned scholars and young researchers. Traditionally,
the symposia have no single theme. The official language of the
symposium
is English.
Contributions devoted to any of the wide range of logical problems are
welcome except those focused on specialised technical applications.
Particularly welcome are contributions that cover the issues interesting
both for 'philosophically' and for 'mathematically' oriented logicians.
The deadline for submitting contributed papers is February 28th.
The notification of acceptance will be distributed by March 31st.
Selected contributions to LOGICA symposia are published by the
Institute's publishing house Filosofia. Recent volumes collecting the
contributions include, among others, papers from Nuel Belnap, Paul
Benacerraf, Johan van Benthem, Jaakko Hintikka, David Lewis, Barbara
Partee,
Graham Priest, Wlodek Rabinowicz, Michael Resnik, Jay Rosenberg, Mark
Sainsbury, Gabriel Sandu, Stewart Shapiro, Göran Sundholm, and Pirmin
Stekeler-Weithofer.
There is a registration fee for the symposium covering full board and
lodging at the Liblice Chateau during the symposium, travel expenses
from Prague to Liblice and back, and a copy of the volume containing
most of the contributions to the symposium. The fee amounts to US$ 250
for participants or US$ 200 for accompanying persons (volume not
included).
If you are interested in reading a paper at the symposium, please send
us a two-page abstract of the paper accompanied by a separate sheet with
your name, contact address, and affiliation to the address below by
February 28th, 2001. E-mail submissions of postscript, MS Word or
WordPerfect
files are possible. Those who might have problems covering the expenses
connected with taking part in the symposium are invited to apply for a
grant.
The organising committee will cover the registration fee for up to five
selected applicants. The successful applicants will also receive 200 US$
for their travel expenses. Those who wish to apply for the grant should
explicitly state this when submitting their abstract, which should be
extended to five pages.
