The first annual conference of the newly formed Philosophy of Language Association will take place online on June 9 and 10, 2022. The goal of the conference, and of the association, is to provide a venue for philosophers of language to discuss new work in all areas of the field. Ultimately, we hope that each annual meeting (which we hope will be held in person in future years) will provide a reasonably comprehensive snapshot of the research being done in philosophy of language that year.

The Zoom link will be distributed via email. Please write to [email protected] by June 7 to receive the link.
