***CSHPM Online Colloquium: Jean-Pierre Marquis ***
In those isolated times, the Canadian Society for History and Philosophy of Mathematics
(http://www.cshpm.org/) is organizing a bi-weekly online colloquium series via Zoom.
Sessions are open to CSHPM members as well as the broader scholarly community. Participants
are encouraged to become members (for as little as $10-$30/year, depending on your
employment status), but it is not required. Non-members can get regular updates on our
activities by liking us on Facebook (https://www.facebook.com/cshpmschpm). The talk will
last 30 minutes, followed by a Q&A.
JEAN-PIERRE MARQUIS, Professor of Philosophy at the Université de Montréal, will deliver the
fourth talk of the CSHPM Online Colloquium series.
DATE: September 4th
TIME: UTC 18:00; Vancouver 11:00; Edmonton/Regina 12:00; Winnipeg 13:00; Montreal/Toronto 14:00; Halifax 15:00; St. John's 15:30
TITLE: On Mathematical Style
ABSTRACT: In this short talk, I will propose a notion of mathematical style, based on
a specific case, namely Bourbaki's mathematics. The main goal is to capture the
"structuralist style" of mathematics, but also to provide a general and supple framework
to capture other types of style. In the spirit of Paolo Mancosu's challenge presented
in his article in the Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy on the same topic, I want to
show that a style in the sense that I propose has an inherent epistemic component and
is not merely an aesthetic addition to a discourse.
