SUMMARY:International Conference "Modal Epistemolo
 gy and Metaphysics", Belgrade, Serbia
DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20140918
DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20140920
LOCATION:Belgrade, Serbia
DESCRIPTION:Modal epistemology explores the possib
 ilities and boundaries of our modal knowledge, pri
 marily the knowledge of metaphysical possibility a
 nd of metaphysical necessity. Until recently, the 
 dominant method of dealing with this topic consist
 ed in investigating to what extent conceivability 
 can be a guide for assessing metaphysical modality
 . However, nowadays what might be called abductivi
 st turn has shifted the focus from conceivability 
 to the sort of the evidential base regarding metap
 hysical modalities as such.    In view of the last
  fact, the aim of the conference is, on the one ha
 nd, to deepen our understanding of the nature of m
 etaphysical modality in order to find out what is 
 the evidential base that any good theory of modal 
 epistemology should explain, and, on the other han
 d, to establish how flexible are competing theorie
 s of modal epistemology in explaining the nature o
 f modal knowledge.    Entrance is free. For furthe
