The conference's topic is the comparison between the two main approaches to truth: axiomatic and semantic. \;Why\n go one way rather than the other? Do the two approaches exclude each \nother? Are there alternative approaches? In which categories fall the \nmost important existing theories? Is there a deeper metaphysical \ndistinction underlying the two approaches? Can revenge\n arguments give grounds for preferring one approach over another? Can \nphilosophical reflection on other disciplines\, such as logic and \nset-theory\, help us understanding the nature\, and the philosophical \nimport\, of the semantic/axiomatic divide?
\n\nWe invite submissions for \;35-40-minute presentations (with 25-20 \;additional\nminutes for \;discussion). Submissions should take the form \;of either a \n1500 word abstract or a full paper of no more than 5000 words\, with a \n150-200 word \;abstract.\n Contact details - authors&rsquo\; names\, postal address\, affiliation\, phone \nnumber \;and e-mail address - should be given separately. Submissions should be sent by e-mail in an attached file in .pdf\, .ps or.rtf format to \;axiomaticsemantic@gmail.com.\n Submitted papers \;will be blind refereed.
