Workshop: Proofs, Rules, and Meanings
11-12 April 2024
Arch Research Centre
University of St Andrews, Scotland

Proof-theoretic semantics is a research programme that aims to determine th
e meaning of linguistic expressions by analysing their inferential use. It
was inspired by general proof theory, the logical research programme that l
ed to the development of the sequent calculus and natural deduction systems
. Proof-theoretic semantics was subsequently given its name by Peter Schroe
der-Heister (one of our speakers) in 1987. Since then, it has become a vibr
ant research field in philosophical, mathematical, computational and lingui
stic logic.
Emphasizing the interdisciplinary nature of the topics, this workshop will
feature presentations on:
1. the contemporary logical and philosophical dimensions of proof-theore
tic semantics;
2. its historical roots and precursors; and
3. its fruitful applications in philosophy, linguistics, computer scienc
e, mathematics, and beyond.
