CNRS research unit "Savoirs, Textes, Langage" http://stl.recherche.univ-lille3.fr/Workshop DescriptionOn the one hand, the concept of identity naturally enters the discussion concerning many types of paradox that are not, primarily, about identity itself. On the other hand, there are a number of paradoxes considered as paradoxes of identity in which identity is apparently the concept generating the paradox (e.g., the ship of Theseus paradox, Chrysippus's paradox, the paradox of change, the paradox of constitution).The goal of the workshop is to discuss philosophical, logical and linguistic aspects of paradoxes in which the notion of identity plays a role. More specifically, we wish to examine whether the so-called paradoxes of identity really are paradoxes of identity in the sense that their paradoxicality is primarily connected to the concept of identity; and we want to investigate the role of concepts of identity in connection with the formulation/solution of other types of paradoxes. The language of the workshop is English.Invited speakersJonathan Lowe (Durham)David Nicolas (Institut Jean Nicod, Paris)Manuel Rebuschi (Nancy)Gerhard Schaden (Lille 3)Submission GuidelinesWe invite submissions presenting novel contributions to the topic from the viewpoints of philosophy, logic and/or linguistics.Up to 4 papers will be accepted for presentation at the workshop.Possible topics include, but are not limited to, the following:Identity and logicIdentity, change,&#160; and paradoxIdentity, composition, and paradoxIdentity, counting, and paradoxRelative identity and paradoxThe language of the workshop is English.Papers should be around 4000 words (7-8 pages) and should be suitable for a 30-minute presentation.All papers should be prepared for blind review and should be emailed as attached pdf-files to the organizers: ronzitti@gmail.com, tero.tulenheimo@univ-lille3.fr.The deadline is January 16, 2013.Contact: ronzitti@gmail.com, tero.tulenheimo@univ-lille3.frImportant datesSubmission deadline: January 16, 2013Notification of acceptance: February 28, 2013Workshop: April 11-12, 2013, in Lille, FranceProgram CommitteeGiuseppina Ronzitti (STL)Tero Tulenheimo (STL, Lille 3)
