---------- Forwarded message --------- *Graduate Workshop "Explaining Explaining" 2025*
*University of Vienna, AustriaSeptember 1-3, 2025* We are pleased to announce the Graduate Workshop on "Explaining Explaining" to be held in Vienna from *September 1-3, 2025*. The workshop is organized under the auspices of, and funded by, the Vienna Doctoral School of Philosophy (VDP). *THEME* Explanations recur as a constant and central theme in philosophy: philosophers contend that in mathematics, proofs are favoured for their explanatory values; in the sciences, theories are selected according to explanatory virtues they exhibit; in metaphysics, explanatory relations direct our accounts of concepts and ontological priority; in philosophy more broadly, we offer and compare explanations for facets of reality in order to resolve conceptual problems. *CONFIRMED SPEAKERS* Prof. Dr. Francesca Poggiolesi (CNRS, Paris) Prof. Dr. Chiara Lisciandra (Heinrich Heine University, Düsseldorf) Prof. Dr. Benjamin Schnieder (University of Vienna, Vienna) Fourth speaker to be confirmed *SUBMISSIONS* We invite graduate students (Master and PhD) to present their original work on topics related to the philosophy of explanation at the workshop. That includes approaches from different areas, including but not limited to logic, metaphysics, philosophy of science and so on. The time allocated for each presentation is 30 minutes, including discussion. Students from underrepresented groups are particularly encouraged to apply to promote diversity and equity in academia. Abstracts (up to 500 words, references not included) should be sent in PDF file format to workshop.explain...@gmail.com. Please make sure to include your name, affiliation and the title of your paper. In case you need financial support, please write a brief statement of financial aid. We can partly fund travel/accommodation expenses. *IMPORTANT DATES* Deadline for Applications: June 1, 2025 Notification of Acceptance: June 15, 2025 Workshop: September 1-3, 2025 All information is also available at https://philevents.org/event/show/134954.
