WORKSHOP

Learning from Buddhist Logic - A Cross-Cultural Workshop on the Philosophy 
of Logic

7-9 AUGUST 2019, Barton Theatre, Crawford Building, Australian National 
University

The aim of the workshop is to bring together some of the leading scholars 
of Buddhist (and Indian) logic and contemporary philosophers of logic in 
order to foster interdisciplinary interactions between them. Each session 
will consist of a presentation by an internationally renowned Buddhist or 
Indian scholar followed by a presentation by a philosopher of an 
international research profile who will not just comment on the previous 
presentation but develop or challenge the ideas presented by the previous 
presentation. The workshop will be a real interaction between the scholars 
of Buddhist (and Indian) logic and philosophers of logic who are not 
familiar with Buddhist material.
