International Workshop: Judgement and Truth in Early Analytic Philosophy an
d 
Phenomenology

University of Zrich, 23-25th of October 2009

Judgement was a central topic in philosophy in the late 19th and early 20th
 
century. Key figures in analytic philosophy (for example, Frege and Russell
) 
and the phenomenological tradition (Brentano and his pupils) gave pride of
 
place to judgement in their philosophical investigations. The workshop aims
 to 
shed light on the proposed views of judgement and explore their connections
 to 
current philosophical work.
