23 September 2021, Reading Group (historical) Epistemology

In the academic year 2021-2022, the Vossius Center will launch a close reading group with a focus on epistemology. We will read and discuss texts that the members of the group find relevant and interesting. Meetings will, ideally, take place on location, and there will be no presentations, just questions and discussion.

As a text to start with, we propose the recently translated On Logic and the Theory of Science (1942, Engl. Trans. with Urbanomic & Sequence Press, 2021) by Jean Cavaillès. The first discussion topic will be chapter 1 of this book (pp. 39-69).
