Meeting Description:
ESSLLI 2018 Workshop
Bridging Formal and Conceptual Semantics
August 6-10, 2018
Sofia University ''St. Kl. Ohridski'', Sofia, Bulgaria
The main aim of the workshop is to get together linguists, philosophers and
cognitive scientists from the two leading research traditions of natural language
meaning, often referred to them as ''formal semantics'' and ''conceptual
semantics''. The workshop provides a platform to investigate and discuss the ways of
possible bridges between the two semantic perspectives, and to initiate a deeper
conversation and collaboration between them. The workshop intends to gather
approaches that show the way how the two perspectives can strengthen each other. The
workshop holds 6 high-quality contributed talks, each of 45 minutes including
discussions and two invited talks by distinguished researchers working on topics
closely related to the main issue of the workshop.
Website: bridge-2018.phil.hhu.de
