\n\nNaturalism has become an increasingly popular position in the philosophy of history over the past decade\, mainly through the works of Paul Roth\, Jouni-Matti Kuukkanen\, and most recently also Michal Hubá\;lek. As such\, it raises important questions about the object\, methods\, and aims of the philosophy of historiography\, as well as the field&rsquo\;s relationship to historiography. In this workshop\, we will discuss these and related questions on the occasion of the recent publication of Michal Hubá\;lek&rsquo\;s book \;Dissolving Naturalism and Historicism Into Each Other.
\n\nThe workshop is open to everybody. If you would like to join in person or via Zoom\, please register with \;georg.gangl@osu.cz \;by June 15. The registration is required solely for catering purposes and for the distribution of the workshop readings.

\nRecent years have witnessed a renewed interest in so-called ordinary language philosophy &ndash\; one of the main traditions in 20th century analytic philosophy. The conference will contribute to this renewed engagement by examining the legacy and contemporary significance of the tradition and its leading representatives. At the same time\, the conference aims at critically examining the idea of an ordinary language philosophy tradition itself. The thinkers typically grouped under this label differ substantially in philosophical outlook and method. Assessing the depth and significance of these differences raises broader questions about how unified the tradition really is. Is the current resurgence best understood as the continuation of a shared philosophical approach\, or does it instead consist of diverse and sometimes competing attempts to draw on different elements of this legacy? By addressing these questions\, the conference will both clarify the historical significance of ordinary language philosophy and assess the prospects for its contemporary revival.

This year'sannual WFAP graduate conference is devoted to debates around philosophical methodology. It is centered around the question of whether philosophy is best done from the philosophical armchair or whether it can and should be done using empirical methods. The conference is focused on the extent to which the emergence of naturalistic approaches and of experimental philosophy (&ldquo\;X-Phi&rdquo\;) pose a problem to &lsquo\;traditional&rsquo\; armchair methods (e.g. consulting intuitions\, conceptual analysis\, reflective equilibrium\, conceptual engineering). We are interested both in work that focuses on individual methods or on the relations between them (e.g. their compatibility).
We aim to bring together early career and advanced researchers in order to discuss questions such as: \;
\nWe welcome submissions that apply these methodological issues to other philosophical debates as case studies.

Title:
\nNonsense in Language and Thought
\nGuest editor:
\nKrystian Bogucki (Polish Academy of Sciences)
\nJournal:
\nStudia Semiotyczne (Semiotic Studies)
\nhttps://studiasemiotyczne.pts.edu.pl/
\nDeadline for submissions:
\nthe 1st of May 2026
\nDescription
\nStudia Semiotyczne \;(Semiotic Studies) \;invites submissions for a special issue of the journal. Papers should be written in English and prepared for blind review.
\nAn interest in nonsense was a hallmark of the early analytic philosophy. Bertrand Russell (1908) thought that a theory of nonsense could help us avoid some daunting paradoxes in logic. Ludwig Wittgenstein (1922\, 1953) and Rudolf Carnap (1931) recognised nonsense as a fundamental concept for philosophical criticism. They claimed that much of philosophical discourse is defective in the most fundamental way: it is neither true nor false\, it does not consist of thoughts and propositions &ndash\; it is nonsense. According to the early Wittgenstein\, philosophers want to describe the nature of the world\, thought\, language and ethics\, but they unwittingly fall into nonsense. The \;Tractatus \;was supposed to free us from this troublesome position by presenting a perspicuous notation. On the other hand\, the later Wittgenstein claimed that we should compare deceptive philosophical images with our ordinary ways of thinking and speaking in order to avoid nonsense. Philosophical problems arise when language goes on holiday\, so we must always remember the everyday use of concepts. For Carnap\, propositions should be reducible to sense data and constructed according to the rules of logical syntax in order to be meaningful.
\nLater\, the topic of nonsense was discussed by Alfred Ayer\, Gilbert Ryle\, Willard V. O. Quine\, Arthur Prior\, Richard Routley and Georg H. von Wright\, among others. Since the late 1970s\, however\, the interest in nonsense has faded. Only recently\, some important works have been published. The first important stimulus came from foundational works on theories of nonsense (Cappelen 2012\, 2013\; Camp 2004\; Glock 2015\; Magidor 2009\, 2013). The second source of the revival of interest in nonsense was Wittgenstein scholarship on the austere and substantial conceptions of nonsense (Conant 2001\; Diamond 1995\, 2005\; Glock 2004\; Hacker 2003\; Moore 2003\; Sullivan 2003). Some works also examined the relation of nonsense to other phenomena (Gotham 2017\, Keller and Keller 2021\, Shaw 2015\, Sorensen 2003).
\nThe important questions to be addressed in the forthcoming volume are (to name but a few): What are the sources of nonsense? Are some parts of philosophical and non-philosophical discourse nonsense? What is the relation between nonsense and figurative speech? Is it at all possible to be wrong whether our own thoughts are meaningful? We hope that the special issue of \;Studia Semiotyczne \;will further strengthen and deepen the scholarly interest in nonsense.
\nPossible topics include\, but are not limited to:
\nTheories of nonsense
\nNonsense and logical syntax
\nNonsense and category mistakes
\nNonsense and figurative speech (e.g. metaphor\, metonymy)
\nNonsense and fiction
\nHistory of the concept of nonsense (in particular Wittgenstein's and the Vienna Circle's views on nonsense)
\nNonsense and understanding
\nNonsense and illusions of sense
\nNonsense and quantification
\nNonsense and linguistics
\nNonsense and ineffability
\nNonsense\, knowledge-how and knowledge-that
\nLogics of nonsense
\nNonsense and semantic paradoxes
\nHow to diagnose philosophical nonsense?
\nMetaphilosophical and methodological issues concerning nonsense
\nIn order to submit the paper\, one is kindly asked to submit the manuscript by sending it to:
\nkrystian.bogucki@ifispan.edu.pl \;and \;studiasemiotyczne@pts.edu.pl
\nAll submitted papers will be double-blind peer-reviewed.
\nAbout the journal:

Between 1970 and 2015\, \;Studia Semiotyczne \;was published non-periodically (during that period\, 29 volumes were published). In December 2015\, \;Studia Semiotyczne \;was transformed into a six-monthly print and Internet publication. Papers accepted for publication in the journal revolve around various aspects of semiotics (conceived in the Morris-Carnap sense) and philosophy. Papers submitted as articles are subject to a double-blind peer review. \;Studia Semiotyczne \;is an open-access journal published by The Polish Semiotic Society (Polskie Towarzystwo Semiotyczne).
\nThe journal is present in \;Academica\, \;BazHum\, \;CEEOL\, \;CEJSH\, \;DOAJ\, EBSCO Discovery Service\, \;ERIH Plus\, \;Index Copernicus\, \;Library of Science\, Philosopher&rsquo\;s Index\, \;PhilPapers\, \;Polona\, \;Scopus \;and Web of Science.

\nHegel on Historicity
\nAthens\, Greece
\n5-7 November 2026
\nDespite important precedents in Augustine\, Bossuet\, Voltaire\, Kant\, and Herder\, Hegel is widely regarded as the first philosopher of history&mdash\;not only because he subjected history to philosophical inquiry\, but above all because he thematized the historicity of philosophy itself. Alongside his much-debated philosophy of world history\, Hegel repeatedly stressed\, throughout his oeuvre and especially in numerous programmatic and introductory remarks\, that philosophy\, including all metaphysical categories\, and even rationality itself is substantially conditioned by history&mdash\;by world history as well as by the histories of empirical sciences\, art\, religion\, and philosophy. For Hegel\, history articulates the very possibility of the actual spirit (Geist) in all its forms: there is no subjective\, objective\, or absolute spirit without history. This emphasis famously inspired Marx to describe the &ldquo\;science of history&rdquo\; as the &ldquo\;sole science.&rdquo\;
\nThis conference aims to discuss central aspects of history and historicity in Hegel&rsquo\;s philosophy from a systematic perspective. Possible guiding questions include\, but are not limited to:
\nWe invite postdoctoral researchers working in the field to submit an abstract (maximum 500 words) addressing one or more of these topics. The conference will include four postdoctoral slots. Coverage of accommodation costs is subject to available funding.
\nA collected volume based on the conference papers is planned for publication in the series Critical Studies in German Idealism (BRILL). The publication language will be English.
\nLength of papers: 30 minutes presentation\, followed by 15 minutes of discussion

\nMany human cognitive capacities and processes may be deployed creatively\, from unique choices made for oneself up through novel cultural shifts. Similarly\, large swaths of our daily lives are taken up with performing spontaneous\, on-the-fly\, and unplanned activities that are\, in a word\, improvised. \; Charting out the nature of both creativity and improvisation\, taken individually or together\, remains an open and pressing issue. In this conference\, we will delve into various philosophical\, theoretical\, empirical\, and interdisciplinary issues that are related to creativity and improvisation. A non-exhaustive list of related questions and themes for this topic include:
\n- What is the relationship between improvisation and creativity?
\n- What is the relationship between creative activity and well-being?
\n- What is the best way to model individual and collective creativity?
\n- Is creativity in the arts the same thing as in other domains\, such as in science or business?
\n- What are the pros and cons of different scientific operationalizations of creativity and improvisation?
\n- Provide a conceptual analysis of creativity and/or improvisation.
