DESCRIPTION:<p>The philosophers of the ancient world were fixated on the notions of truth\, falsehood and the presentation of falsehood as truth. Many thinkers challenged the distinction between truth and falsehood\, while other defended it. Such debates helped lay the foundations of logic\, metaphysics and epistemology.&nbsp\;</p>\n<p>Similarly\, deception was a topic that exercised philosophers. When is it right to deceive\, ethically or politically? What content should a deception have?</p>\n<p>This conference will explore the ancient thought about the semantic and moral notions of truth\, falsehood and deception.</p>\n<p><strong>Programme</strong></p>\n<p><strong><br></strong></p>\n<p><strong>Friday 20th</strong></p>\n<p>10.00am-1.30pm: Registration</p>\n<p>2.00-3.15pm:&nbsp\;Astrid Exner\, &lsquo\;The next best thing to truth: Logos and Doxa in Gorgias of Leontinoi's&nbsp\;<em>Encomium of Helen</em>&rsquo\; (University of Vienna)</p>\n<p>Response by Benjamin Harriman (University of Cambridge)</p>\n<p>3.15-4.30pm:&nbsp\;Yumi Suzuki\, &lsquo\;The Underlying Paradox of Plato&rsquo\;s&nbsp\;<em>Meno</em>\, 80d5-e5: A conflict between Gorgias&rsquo\; rhetoric and Socratic dialectic&rsquo\; (University of Durham)</p>\n<p>Response by Naoya Iwata (University of Cambridge)</p>\n<p>4.30-5.00pm: Tea break</p>\n<p>5.00-6.15pm: Carrie Swanson\, 'Aristotle on the Fallacy of&nbsp\;<em>Ignoratio Elenchi</em>' (Indiana University (Bloomington))</p>\n<p>Response by Matthew Duncombe (University of Cambridge)</p>\n<p>6.15-7.30pm: Keynote Paper\, Nick Denyer (University of Cambridge).
