DESCRIPTION:<p>"Experimental Semantics" is concerned with the empirical testing of theories of reference. Starting with <em>Semantics\, cross-cultural style</em>\, the seminal work of Edouard Machery\, Ron Mallon\, Shaun Nichols and Stephen Stich\, this testing has been of the referential intuitions of the folk. Michael Devitt and Genoveva Mart&iacute\; have criticized this approach urging instead the testing of linguistic usage. This workshop is concerned with this new approach.</p>\n<p>The program of the workshop is the following:</p>\n<p><strong>Friday (22nd April 2016)</strong></p>\n<p>4:15 &nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\; &ldquo\;The Reference of Proper Names: Testing Usage and Intuitions&rdquo\;</p>\n<p>&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\; (Michael Devitt and Nicolas Porot)</p>\n<p>5:55&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\; break</p>\n<p>6:15 &nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\; &ldquo\;Experimental Semantics\, Salience and Hybrid</p>\n<p>&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\; Theory of Reference&rdquo\;</p>\n<p>&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\; (Filippo Domaneschi and Massimiliano Vignolo)</p>\n<p><strong>Saturday (23rd April 2016)</strong></p>\n<p>9:30&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\; &ldquo\;Exploring New Methods in Experimental Semantics&rdquo\;</p>\n<p>&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\; (Jussi Haukioja and Daniel Cohnitz)</p>\n<p>11:10&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\; break</p>\n<p>11:30&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\; &ldquo\;The Role of Actual and Counterfactual Cases in</p>\n<p>&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\; Experimental Semantics&rdquo\;</p>\n<p>&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\; (Jennifer Nado and Michael Johnson)</p>\n<p>1:10&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\; Lunch break</p>\n<p>2:30&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\; &ldquo\;Is There Referential Ambiguity?&rdquo\; (&Aacute\;ngel Pinillos)</p>\n<p>4:10&nbsp\;&nbsp\; &nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\; break</p>\n<p>4:30&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\; &ldquo\;Semantics Without Intuitions?&rdquo\; (&Aring\;sa Wikforss)</p>\n<p>6:10&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\; break</p>\n<p>6:30 &nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\; &ldquo\;Round table&rdquo\;</p>\n<p>End around 7:40</p>\n<p>We invite anyone interested in philosophy of language and experimental research on theories of reference.
