DESCRIPTION:<p>Aristotle&rsquo\;s logic is often treated as though it falls into two quite distinct parts: the deductive syllogistic system\, discussed in the&nbsp\;<em>Prior</em>&nbsp\;and&nbsp\;<em>Posterior Analytics</em>&nbsp\;and the dialectical system\, discussed in the&nbsp\;<em>Topics</em>&nbsp\;and&nbsp\;<em>Sophistical Refutations</em>. Each of these parts has received sustained\, independent attention: logicians have done much to articulate the structure of Aristotle&rsquo\;s syllogistic\, while commentators have seen Aristotle&rsquo\;s dialectic as key to his whole philosophical enterprise.&nbsp\; &nbsp\;</p>\n<p>This conference aims to examine the (putative) dialectical grounding for Aristotle&rsquo\;s logical theories in general (in particular\, but not exclusively\, syllogistic)\, and thus to emphasize the coherence and continuity of his logical writings by taking multi-agent dialogical interactions such as dialectic as the founding concept. &nbsp\;</p>\n<p><strong>Call for Papers</strong>&nbsp\; We will have a number of slots for contributed papers. Contributions may address the following themes\, among others:</p>\n<ul>\n<li>The pragmatic context of Aristotle&rsquo\;s syllogistic&nbsp\; &nbsp\;</li>\n<li>Game-theoretic construals of Aristotle&rsquo\;s logic</li>\n<li>Aristotle&rsquo\;s account of fallacies</li>\n<li>Dialectic in the&nbsp\;<em>Organon (</em>including the&nbsp\;<em>Categories&nbsp\;</em>and<em>On Interpretation</em>)&nbsp\;</li>\n<li>Dialogical readings of Aristotle's logic by ancient and (Latin and Arabic) medieval commentators</li>\n</ul>\n<p>We invite submissions from scholars at all levels (graduate students\, junior and senior researchers).&nbsp\;Please submit abstracts of up to 1000 words (in PDF format) by&nbsp\;<strong>March 15th&nbsp\;2013</strong>&nbsp\;to rootsofdeduction 'at'&nbsp\;gmail.com.&nbsp\;Abstracts should be prepared for blind review.&nbsp\;Notification of acceptance will be sent by April&nbsp\;15th.</p>
