DESCRIPTION:<p>Aristotle is the founder of modal logic. His system of modal syllogisms\, presented in chapters 3 and 8-22 of the first book of the Prior Analytics\, has been studied for many centuries\, with less than successful results. In 1955\, Jan Łukasiewicz declared that &ldquo\;in contrast to the assertoric syllogistic which is perfectly clear and nearly free of errors\, Aristotle&rsquo\;s modal syllogistic is almost incomprehensible because of its many faults and inconsistencies&rdquo\;. Some scholars have been trying to resist this pessimistic judgement and to articulate interpretations of the modal syllogistic that are\, at the same time\, logically consistent and plausible on exegetical grounds. This workshop wants to provide a forum for discussion and to reflect\, via the contributed talks and informal discussions\, the state of art of the subject. Confirmed speakers: Marko Malink (Chicago)Paolo Crivelli (Geneva)Sara Uckelman (Heidelberg)Ulrich Nortmann (Saarland)</p>\n<p>Organizer:</p>\n<p>Ricardo Santos (&Eacute\;vora and LanCog\, Lisbon)</p>\n<p>Sponsors:</p>\n<p>Centro de Filosofia da Universidade de Lisboa</p>\n<p>Funda&ccedil\;&atilde\;o para a Ci&ecirc\;ncia e a Tecnologia</p>\n<p>Faculdade de Letras da Universidade de Lisboa</p>\n<p>Project &ldquo\;Comp&ecirc\;ndio em Linha de Problemas de Filosofia Anal&iacute\;tica&rdquo\; PTDC/FIL-FIL/121209/2010</p>\n<p>Project &ldquo\;Tradu&ccedil\;&atilde\;o Anotada das Obras de Arist&oacute\;teles (Quarta Fase)&rdquo\; PTDC/MHC-FIL/3672/2012</p>
