MINI - COURSE IN MODAL SEMANTICS AND TREES

SYLLABUS
COURSE OVERVIEW

Modal semantics provide a flexible framework for the study of different notions like  modalities, epistemic notions or forms of indefiniteness. Much of the philosophical  discussion on these and related topics require, at least, the ability to read and  understand modal formulas.

This course provides an introduction to propositional modal semantics and logic. We  explain the technique of trees to construct proofs for different modal logics and we will finally look at some variations that lead to supervaluationist and subvaluationist logics.

GENERAL INFORMATION
Name: Modal Semantics and Trees
Number of lectures: 3 lectures of 2 hours
Requirements: familiarity with classical propositional logic.
Lecturer: Pablo Cobreros

Language: English


Lecture 1. The basic system of modal logic.
26 May 2014 . Padova - Via Bassi 2, Aula A: 12.30 -14.30


Lecture 2. Extensions of K. Padova - Via Bassi 2, Aula A: 12.30 -14.30
27 May 2014. Padova - Via Bassi 2, Aula A: 12.30 -14.30

Lecture 3. Vagueness: s'valuationism
28 May 2014. Padova - P.zza Capitaniato 3, FISPPA, Sala Giacon: 14.30 - 16.30


METHODOLOGY

There will be lectures on the main topics together with handouts. Students can prepare the first lecture having a look to the video "Classical Propositional Logic"



All the lectures will be accompanied with handout notes. In addition, students will have  free availability to the manuscript Filosofía y Lógica (in Spanish) or they can follow  Priest's Introduction to Non-Classical Logics.

Finally, to prepare the fourth lecture, students might want to read the Philosophy Compass paper "Vagueness: Subvaluationism".

Sala Giacon - P.zza Capitaniato, 3 - PADOVA

Il prof. Koji Nakatogawa (Hokkaido University)

terrà una conferenza dal titolo:

"Contradictions and Negations: Sentences, Judgments and Terms"

ABSTRACT:
I will begin with analyzing various kinds of negations in standard
and non-standard logics, and then try to obtain a tentative
classification of contradictions. Next, I will pick up a few
examples from ancient Chinese and Indian Logics as well as from an
analysis of “Two Wise Girls Puzzle”, and try to find where their
notions of negations and/or contradictions fall under the
classification. My talk will end with some observations concerning
what sort of changes on the side of knowledge, which are caused by
these kinds of negations and/or contradictions, correspond to what
sort of changes in the side of the worlds.
