Thursday, October 11, 2007, 3:30-5pm, Cobb 201
The topic of this year’s Workshop on Semantics and Philosophy of Language, organized by Chris Kennedy and Anastasia Giannakidou this year, along with Josef Stern from Philosophy, is “compositionaltiy”. External speakers this fall include Zoltan Szabò (Oct 12), Jason Stanley (Oct 19), and Polly Jacobson (Nov 9). For more details, visit the workshop website at http://semantics.uchicago.edu/workshops/spl/.
The talks that Jason Stanley was scheduled to give next week — a linguistics colloquium on Thursday and a semantics/philosophy workshop talk on Friday — have been postponed until fall quarter, as Jason will not be able to make it to Chicago next week.
