Dear friends,

 

We are proud to announce the opening of submissions to the *X Principia 
International Symposium: The Construction of Experience*.

 

The symposium will be held in Florianópolis, Brazil, from August 14th to 
17th, 2017.

 

This time our central theme is going to be *The Construction of Experience*. 
Ever since empiricism emerged as a live philosophical option, there has 
been a growing awareness that experience is somehow constructed --- and, 
so, philosophical curiosity has been directed to diverse inquiries 
regarding the notion of experience as a construct, besides the process of 
constructing. Our theme, therefore, can be approached from a broad variety 
of points of view in debates that ramify towards diverse areas, such as 
epistemology, philosophy of mind, logic, metaphysics, philosophy of 
perception, philosophy of language, and philosophy of science. We welcome 
contributions that address any aspect of the construction of experience, as 
well as critical assessments of historical and contemporary stances on the 
matter.

 

Besides the main session about the construction of experience and the 
manifold of aspects related to it, we will also have, as usual, parallel 
sessions dealing with the following subjects: 

* Philosophy and History of Science, 

* Logic and Philosophy of Language, 

* Epistemology, 

* Metaphysics and Philosophy of Mind. 

* Ethics, metaethics and applied ethics.

 

Contributed papers to the symposium may be written in English, French, 
Portuguese, or Spanish. An extended abstract (at most 500 words, in any of 
these languages) of the paper must be submitted by March 15th, 2017 to the 
organizing committee. Submissions must be made by e-mail only to the 
following address: [email protected].

 

Abstracts must give enough detail to allow the scientific committee to 
assess the merits of the work. Please, do not include pictures or graphics 
in the abstract. References to other works should be avoided, but if 
necessary, must be included in the body of the text. Authors using 
mathematical symbols are encouraged to submit *tex* versions of their 
abstracts. Also include a separate identification page with the author's 
name, e-mail, professional category (professor, associate professor, 
researcher, or student), and full institutional address. Please, when 
submitting, send both the source file (.doc, .rtf, .tex, etc.) and a pdf 
version.

 

Further information will soon be available in our website 
http://www.principia.ufsc.br/SIP10.html

 

See you in Florianópolis!
