About us

The SLR Conference: Science, Language and Reality. Themes from the Philosophy of Susan Haack aims to deepen the tradition of analytic philosophy by exploring points of intersection between three of its central areas: philosophy of science, metaphysics, and philosophy of language. The intellectual inspiration for this conference is found in the philosophical work of Susan Haack, whose contributions exemplify the fruitful interaction between philosophy of science, and philosophy of language within the analytic tradition.
