Since then, muc h has been done to clarify two of them (obligation s and supposition), but the other two (exposition and proofs of propositions) remain just as mysteri ous. The aim of this workshop is to reach a cleare r understanding of the genre of 'proofs of proposi tions' (probationes propositionum) that came to ch aracterize British logic in the second half of the 14th century. We would also welcome contributions that shed some light on the earlier theories of ' exposition' that were subsumed into this new genre . Our invited speakers are Jennifer Ashworth, Har ald Berger, Egbert Bos, Martin Dekarli, Ota Pavlà cek and Joke Spruyt.
