The University of Barcelona and the LOGOS research group invite you to a workshop focussed on
Fiction, Literature and Beyond.
The session will run from the 2nd to the 4th of May 2023 at the University of Barcelona. It will also be possible to participate online.
LOGOS is an international group of researchers who work on core issues in a variety of central areas of philosophy. Their diversified research is unified by a common methodological approach to philosophical questions and problems properly characterised as analytic. The group鈥檚 research activities can broadly be classified into four main areas: language and logic; metaphysics and mind; knowledge, science and methodology; and issues in practical and applied philosophy.
LOGOS was founded in 1993, and has been officially recognised as a consolidated research group by the Generalitat de Catalunya since 2001.
The Barcelona Workshop has been the signature event of the LOGOS Research Group in Analytic Philosophy for over 20 years. It is a small-format conference, with no parallel sessions, that aims to provide ample space for discussion among participants.
