Indexicals and Demonstraives III

NDEXICALS AND DEMONSTRATIVES III
FACULTY OF PHILOSOPHY, UNIVERSITY OF WARSAW (ONLINE), 12th-13th of January 2023


INDEXICALS AND DEMONSTRATIVES III is the third of the series of the workshop-seminars planned within the project 'Semantic and epistemological aspects of ostension: from demonstrating procedures to the exploitation of the context of utterance'.

The purpose of the workshop-seminars is to gather scholars interested in indexicality, especially in various issues connected with the distinction between proper indexicals and demonstratives (the role of intentions in determining the reference of indexicals and demonstratives, the linguistic meanings of indexical expressions etc.) and other problems in the logic, semantics and pragmatics of deictic expressions. We are especially interested in foundational philosophical questions and issues.
Invited speaker:
Una Stojnic (Princeton University)
