Workshop on Modality and Quantification in Natural Languages
Satellite Event of Principia (Florianópolis, July 28–31, 2025)
https://logicandlinguistics.ufsc.br/wp/2025-workshop
We invite submissions for the Workshop on Modality and Quantification in Natural Languages—a unique forum aiming at examining how modality, quantification, and related phenomena (such as genericity and free choiceness) manifest in natural language. This workshop is dedicated to exploring the interplay between linguistics and logic, highlighting how both classical and non-classical logical models can shed light on complex syntactic and semantic phenomena.
Workshop Overview
At the heart of this workshop lies a commitment to exploring the two-way relationship between logic and linguistics. Both fields are deeply intertwined through various inferential processes—such as entailments, implicatures, and presuppositions—that are fundamental to human communication and reasoning. We invite original research that bridges formal logic with natural language analysis, particularly studies addressing the theoretical and methodological challenges at this intersection. Submissions that also explore implications for pedagogy, computational modeling, and the development of educational resources are especially welcome.
