SUMMARY:September or December 2021, Workshop "Intu
 ition & rigour in geometrical thinking from antiqu
 ity to the 19th century", Prague, Czech Republic
DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20201212
DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20201213
LOCATION:Prague, Czech Republic
DESCRIPTION:From the end of the 19th century, math
 ematical and philosophical literature has often po
 rtrayed a contrast between visual intuition and lo
 gical rigor. However, the terms "rigour" and "intu
 ition" have rich associations and connotations in 
 different historical contexts, and well before the
  turn of the 20th century. The goal of our worksho
 p is to study the historical evolution of these no
 tions within the mathematical practice, and the ep
 istemological debates that they have raised.  Conf
 irmed keynote speakers are: Helena Durnova (Masary
 k University, Brno) Michael Friedman (Humboldt Uni
 versity, Berlin) Eduardo Giovannini (University of
  Wien) Marco Panza (CNRS, Universit́e Paris 1/Chap
 man University) Vincenzo de Risi (CNRS, Universit́
 e Paris 7).  Note: the event as it was scheduled c
 annot unfortunately take place in December due to 
 covid measures, but will be postponed to the next 
 year, possibly September 2021 or December 2021.  I
 n the workshop there are a few (cca 5) slots for c
 ontributed papers (30 min. presentation). We invit
 e abstracts in accordance to the theme of the conf
 erence, Submissions of abstracts should not exceed
  250 words, and must be written in English.
