Call for Papers for the conference

EXPLANATION BETWEEN LOGIC AND PHILOSOPHY
20-22 September 2021

The topic of the conference is the study of the notion of explanation in 
the context of logic and philosophy. Particular attention will be devoted 
to the history of the investigation on explanation, to the connections 
with conceptual and metaphysical grounding, and to related philosophical 
issues such as logical pluralism and anti-exceptionalism about logic. The 
conference is organised in the framework of the ANR JCJC project Bolzano's 
Insights, https://bolzano-insights.com/.

The conference will be held online through Zoom and will be open to anyone 
who is interested.

We invite submissions on any subject connected to the notion of formal 
explanation in logic and in philosophy. A title and abstract (max. 750 
words together with 2 or 3 keywords) should be now submitted before the 11 
July 2021 via an e-mail to Francesco A. Genco at the address frgenco [at] 
gmail [dot] com.
