The Amsterdam Colloquia aim to bring together linguists, philosophers, logicians, cognitive scientists and computer scientists who share an interest in the formal study of the semantics and pragmatics of natural and formal languages. The Amsterdam Colloquia are organized by the Institute for Logic, Language and Computation (ILLC) of the University of Amsterdam.

 

The 2024 edition will be held in person at the University of Amsterdam on 18–20 December, 2024.

 

Registration on site is not possible. Please register by Wednesday 11 December.

 

Just before the Amsterdam Colloquium, the 14th edition of PALLMYR will take place in Amsterdam, at the ILLC.

 

In addition to the general programme, the 2024 Amsterdam Colloquium will feature two workshops: one on Identifying and Explaining Universals of Semantics and one on Dynamic and Inquisitive: Themes from the work of Jeroen Groenendijk. Here is a link to a webpage dedicated to Jeroen (credit: Frank Veltman).

 

The Colloquium will also include a poster session, and host one evening lecture by Prof. Angelika Kratzer jointly organized with the E.W. Beth Foundation.
