As part of the ongoing MetPhil research project (Croatian Science Foundation IP-2022-10-2550), we are pleased to announce the organization of a workshop on the Linguistic Turn. This workshop will investigate the Linguistic Turn itself alongside common themes from metaphysics, philosophy of science, conceptual engineering and other disciplines. The workshop will therefore provide an opportunity for philosophers who work in various fields to discuss questions of central importance to all participants.
We are honored to welcome Michael Devitt who is a Distinguished Professor of Philosophy (Emeritus) at CUNY Graduate Center, Department of Philosophy. Professor Devitt’s work on the philosophy of language, philosophy of mind, metaphysics and epistemology will be an invaluable contribution for the purposes of this workshop.
This workshop will consist of presentations followed by a moderated discussion. We kindly invite participants to actively engage in a dialogue regarding the topic of each presentation and to contribute perspectives from their respective fields of study.
Practical Information:
- Date: Monday, September 15th 2025.
- Time: 10.00 to 18.00
- Venue: Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences (room 401 or 412), Sveučilišna avenija 4, 51000 Rijeka.
We look forward to your participation in what promises to be a productive and interesting workshop.
