• International Wittgenstein Workshop: Form(s) of Life and the Nature of Experience

 

22-23 May 2009

The aim of this workshop is to explore some of the relations between Wittgenstein’s concept of ‘Lebensform(en)’ and his view of human experience. To what extent is the form of our life fixed, i.e., is there a form of life or forms of life, and how does this relate to the different fields of experience? The workshop is expected to shed light on a much exploited but rarely analysed topic in Wittgenstein’s scholarship and to contribute to the overall philosophical discussion about the nature of experience.

• Wittgenstein After his Nachlass (a two days international conference) 2 - 3 May 2008
  The publication of the Bergen Electronic Edition of Wittgenstein’s Nachlass, between 1998 and 2000, was a really outstanding and extremely valuable contribution to Wittgenstein scholarship. Besides the digital facsimiles and transcriptions of almost all the Wittgenstein papers, it offers some very useful search facilities. However, many items raise serious philological questions and only a relatively small number of scholars make an effective use of that careful piece of editorial work. The aim of this conference is then to explore the rich and variable tangles that characterise Wittgenstein’s Nachlass, as well as their relations to his conception of philosophy. Some papers will also touch on newly published or hitherto unpublished sources for the study of Wittgenstein and the new Bergen Electronic Edition will be discussed. This meeting is intended to inaugurate an international collaborative work on Wittgenstein’s Nachlass.
  Speakers include:
  James Conant (Chicago), P. M. S. Hacker (Oxford), Brian F. McGuinness (Siena), Volker A. Munz (Graz), 
  Alois Pichler (Bergen), Josef G. F. Rothhaupt (Munich), Joachim Schulte (Zurich), Ilse Somavilla (Innsbruck), 
  David G. Stern (Iowa), Nuno Venturinha (Lisbon)

• Emotion, Cognition and Communication 
  19th and 20th December (a two days international conference). 
  There are many conceptual bridges to build between these three philosophical themes. The conference will outline some of the possible connections through the talks of their participants: Barry C. Smith (keynote speaker, London University, Birkbeck College), Michael Brady (University of Glasgow), Luiz Baptista (IFL, FCSH/UNL), Dina Mendonça (IFL, FCSH/UNL), João Sàágua (IFL, FCSH/UNL), João Fonseca (IFL, FCSH/UNL), Jorge Gonçalves (IFL, FCSH/UNL), among others.

• What is Political Philosophy? 
  28th and 27th November 2007 (a two days international conference)
