SUMMARY:Inheriting Ordinary Language Philosophy

DESCRIPTION:<p>Recent years have witnessed a renewed interest in so-called ordinary language philosophy &ndash\; one of the main traditions in 20th century analytic philosophy. The conference will contribute to this renewed engagement by examining the legacy and contemporary significance of the tradition and its leading representatives. At the same time\, the conference aims at critically examining the idea of an ordinary language philosophy tradition itself. The thinkers typically grouped under this label differ substantially in philosophical outlook and method. Assessing the depth and significance of these differences raises broader questions about how unified the tradition really is. Is the current resurgence best understood as the continuation of a shared philosophical approach\, or does it instead consist of diverse and sometimes competing attempts to draw on different elements of this legacy? By addressing these questions\, the conference will both clarify the historical significance of ordinary language philosophy and assess the prospects for its contemporary revival.</p>\n<p><strong>Keynote speakers</strong></p>\n<p>Avner Baz (Tufts University)</p>\n<p>Benjamin De Mesel (KU Leuven)</p>\n<p>Hans-Johann Glock (University of Zurich)</p>\n<p>Martin Gustafsson (&Aring\;bo Akademi University)</p>\n<p>Nicole Rathgeb (University of Bern)</p>\n<p><strong>Important dates</strong></p>\n<p>Abstract submission: July 6\, 2026</p>\n<p>Author notification: July 16\, 2026</p>\n<p>Conference: October 2-3\, 2026</p>\n<p><strong>Registration fees</strong></p>\n<p>Students 50 &euro\;</p>\n<p>Non-students 100 &euro\;</p>\n<p>(Registration fee covers the conference dinner\; waivers might be considered)</p>\n<p><strong>Conference Venue</strong></p>\n<p>Faculty of Philosophy\, Vilnius University\, Universiteto street 9\, Vilnius\, Lithuania.</p>\n<p><strong>Submitting an abstract for a presentation (30 minutes including discussion)</strong></p>\n<p>Abstracts at a maximum length of 400 words should be submitted as Word or PDF to mindaugas.gilaitis@fsf.vu.lt.
