elected should include Logic or neighbouring areas of philosophy or 
mathematics, and there will be a requirement to teach Logic at

whose syllabus has a formal logic component. In addition the post holder 
may be involved in departmental class teaching. The teaching stint will be

asked to help in a limited way with the academic and pastoral organisation
 
of the Philosophy side of the Mathematics and Philosophy joint school. 
Informal enquiries may be made to Dr Edward Harcourt at 
edward.harcourt@keble.ox.ac.uk.

dinner at the Common Table as well as to an academic allowance of 464 
p.a. and a student allowance of 217 p.a. (both current rates, reviewed
