 sophy of Mathematics: Axiomatics: Ancient and Cont
 emporary Perspectives, Online

DESCRIPTION:The Novembertagungis an international 
 graduate conference on the history and philosophy 
 of mathematics and neighbouring fields. It aims to
  provide an opportunity for graduate students at a
 ll levels to present and discuss their research in
  an informal and safe environment. It also allows 
 young researchers to share experiences, get advice
  and establish new contacts.  On the theme: While 
 Euclid (c. 3rd century BC) is usually celebrated a
 s the beginning of axiomatic science, many feature
 s that are nowadays taken to be essential to axiom
 atics appear to be alien to ancient mathematics. A
  major contemporary change in the view on axiomati
 cs was initiated by the adoption of the set-theore
 tic axiomatic framework as a foundation of mathema
 tics in the first half of the 20thcentury. Proof t
 heory and model theory subsequently developed as i
 ndependent research fields and had a wide impact o
 n philosophical thought.On the other hand, some ph
 ilosophers also argue that the axiomatic view on m
 athematics may be harmful in that it omits fundame
 ntal aspects of mathematical practice and idealize
 s mathematical reasoning in an unfaithful way.  Du
 e to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, the conference
  takes place online.  Abstracts should be in Engli
 sh, around 250-350 words, prepared for blind revie
 w, and submitted using the submission form on the 
 website. Notifications will be sent out in August.
  Submissions by graduate student members of an und
 errepresented group in History of Mathematics or P
 hilosophy of Mathematics are particularly encourag
 ed.  Note that the theme of axiomatics is meant to
  be a guideline and will not serve as an exclusion
 ary factor for the selection of submissions.
