*Semantics and Philosophy in Europe 11*

*2nd Call for Papers*

The purpose of the Semantics and Philosophy in Europe (SPE) 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.). Previous colloquia have
taken place in Paris (SPE1, 2008 and SPE3, 2010), London (SPE2, 2009),
Bochum (SPE4, 2011), Turin (SPE5, 2012), St. Petersburg (SPE6, 2013),
Berlin (SPE7, 2014), Cambridge (SPE8, 2015), Padua (SPE9, 2017) and
Barcelona (SPE10, 2018).

This year?s Semantics and Philosophy in Europe colloquium features a
general session as well as two *special sessions*:

1. Subjectivity: Theoretical and Experimental Perspectives

2. Truthmaker Semantics and Situations
http://spe2019.uw.edu.pl/sessions/session2.pdf

There will also be two invited lectures on the influence of the Lvov-Warsaw
School on contemporary semantics and philosophy of language.

For the general session, we invite any contributions on topics at the
interface of linguistics an philosophy, including but not limited to work
on truth and meaning, the architecture of language, reference, attitude
reports, the formal ontology of language, the relation between syntax,
semantics, and pragmatics, semantics and the brain, and semantics of other
symbolic systems.
