SUMMARY:The structure of modal & semantic reasonin
 g, Muenchen, Germany
DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20170629
DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20170701
LOCATION:Muenchen, Germany
DESCRIPTION:In the last 50 years, the success of p
 ossible worlds semantics for intensional logics ha
 s determined a discrepancy between techniques, aim
 s and themes employed in the study of modal notion
 s (broadly conceived as to include propositional a
 ttitudes, probability, validity) and in the study 
 of truth. If the former endeavour focuses more on 
 analyzing the logical space given by possible worl
 ds semantics -- leaving aside problems and limitat
 ions that full self-reference and quantification m
 ay provide -- as a model for understanding modal c
 oncepts, the philosophical and logical mainstream 
 in the study of truth is still deeply concerned wi
 th paradox and the self-referential aspects of suf
 ficiently expressive languages containing a truth 
 predicate.  The conference aims at bringing togeth
 er researchers working on the interaction between 
 these two traditions with a particular emphasis on
  expressive frameworks that treat truth and modali
 ties as interacting predicates.
