L'argumentaire de l'évènement :
"The Indian traditions of logic and epistemology do not fit into the deductive paradigm of mathematical logic which forms the foundations of a large part of current philosophical logic. Instead, intersubjectivity and interaction play an important role. In this respect, they are similar to large parts of the Western medieval and early modern logic traditions (e.g., the obligationes or the Logique du Port Royal).

In the past decades, logicians focused on the interactive paradigm and investigated logics of knowledge, belief and communication. These logics have been successfully used in the formalization of Western medieval texts. We expect that similar successes are possible in the field of Indian logic and epistemology. Our workshop will be an encounter between the two relevant research communities."
