Call for papers: 3rd Workshop on Philosophy, Logic and Analytical Metaphysics http://filomenaworkshop.weebly.com/current-edition.html Aug 21-23, 2017 Natal/RN, Brazil ? ? The third edition of the FILOMENA Workshop (FIlosofia, LOgica e MEtafísica aNAlítica), promoted by the Group for Logic and Formal Philosophy from the UFRN, has the purpose of gathering logicians working at the intersection of Logic and Metaphysics, through the application of formal methods in Philosophy. Logic, a branch of Philosophy on its own, has outgrown its original purposes and found connections with other areas of Philosophy, such as Philosophy of Language, Philosophy of Mathematics, Philosophy of Science and Philosophy of Mind. Logic has proved to be a powerful tool for analyzing different philosophical theories, as well as their foundations and implications; moreover, the birth and development of non-classical logics has expanded its domain of application much beyond the dreams of its progenitors. Topics of interest for our workshop include, but are not limited to: Modal metaphysics Reference and descriptions Philosophical topics in non-classical logics Truth-values Logical consequence Logical pluralism Meta-ontology? The workshop will allow 30 minutes for each contributed talk, divided into 20 minutes for exposition followed by 10 minutes of discussion. The abstracts may be written in English or Portuguese. Abstracts should have at most 500 words and should include relevant information about the author (name, e-mail address, and scientific affiliation).
