NEH Summer Seminar: Aristotle on Truth and Meaning

The Society wants to call its members attention to the NEH Summer Seminar on Truth and Meaning in Aristotle by Mark Wheeler and Deborah Modrak. We encourage all our members to visit the website for the seminar at http://aristotle.sdsu.edu for more information.

The description reads in part:

Our seminar will be devoted to the study of Aristotle’s semantic conception of truth and falsehood, both in light of his account of how human language and thought represent the world and in relation to other conceptions of truth and falsehood from those of his predecessors to those of leading contemporary philosophers.

The seminar will be held at San Diego State University from June 21-July 16, 2010.  Sixteen successful applicants will be awarded a $3,300 stipend.  For the first time, graduate students in this field may also apply.  Application deadline is March 2, 2010.  If you have any further questions by contacting me at sarias2@earthlink.net.
