Seventh colloquium Semantics and Philosophy in Europe / SPE 7

The purpose of the Semantics and Philosophy in Europe colloquia is to provide a forum for presenting research in the interface between linguistic semantics and various areas of philosophy (philosophy of language, philosophy of mind/cognition, metaphysics etc.).
SPE 7 will be hosted by the Zentrum für Allgemeine Sprachwissenschaft (ZAS) in Berlin in cooperation with Institut für Philosophie and Institut für deutsche Sprache und Linguistik at Humboldt University Berlin.

In addition to the general session, SPE 7 will feature two special sessions:

- Conceptual structures and truth-conditional semantics
- Attitudes towards questions

Two preconference tutorials will be offered:

- Questions: from embedded clauses to speech acts (Manfred Krifka, ZAS)
- Evaluative predicates (Friederike Moltmann, CNRS, Carla Umbach, ZAS)

Invited speakers:

- Maria Aloni (University of Amsterdam)
- Peter Gärdenfors (Lund University)
- Jane Friedman (New York University)
- Rick Nouwen (Utrecht University)
- Galit Sassoon (Bar Ilan University)
- Jason Stanley (Yale University)

Search / advanced search of the idw archives
Combination of search terms

You can combine search terms with and, or and/or not, e.g. Philo not logy.

Brackets

You can use brackets to separate combinations from each other, e.g. (Philo not logy) or (Psycho and logy).

Phrases

Coherent groups of words will be located as complete phrases if you put them into quotation marks, e.g. “Federal Republic of Germany”.

Selection criteria

You can also use the advanced search without entering search terms. It will then follow the criteria you have selected (e.g. country or subject area).

If you have not selected any criteria in a given category, the entire category will be searched (e.g. all subject areas or all countries).
