Aristotle’s Organon in old and new logic, c. 1800–1950
Villa Vigoni Lake Como March 10-13, 2022
We seek to investigate the transformation of the interpretation of Aristotle’s Organon in the tumultuous history of modern logic in the long 19th Century. This will include (but is not limited to) new interpretations of the Organon under the influence of mathematical logic, as well as reactions against these.
We invite scholars to submit brief abstracts of max. 1.000 words (in German, Italian, or English) for submission by December 31, 2021, together with a short curriculum vitae to: colin.king@providence.edu
Early career scholars are particularly welcome to apply. Decisions will be announced by January 15, 2022.
