SUMMARY:Workshop in Theories of Paradox in the Mid
 dle Ages, Online
DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20201021
DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20201023
LOCATION:Online
DESCRIPTION:Paradoxes seized the attention of logi
 cians in the middle ages, and were used both as te
 sts for the viability of theories of logic, langua
 ge, epistemology, and possibly every philosophical
  issue, and also in the specific genre of insolubl
 es as needing a theoretical solution, usually invo
 lving issues about signification, truth, knowledge
  and modality. Numerous theories were developed, n
 ot only in the Latin West, but also in the Islamic
  world and in the Byzantine tradition. Some of the
 se theories are well known, others barely investig
 ated, if at all. This workshop is an opportunity t
 o discuss and contrast a range of these theories a
 nd consider their advantages and drawbacks, and th
 eir relation to more recent theories of paradox an
 d antinomy.
