The Epistemology and Methodology of Jaakko Hintikka - a symposium in Hintikka's honor
November 16-17, 2007.
Roskilde University, Denmark
Sponsored by PHIS – The Danish Research School in Philosophy, History of Ideas and History of Science
Jaakko Hintikka's philosophical writings are some of the most lucid, enlightening and influential of the 20th century philosophy. They range from his pioneering work in epistemic logic over his interpretations of important historical figures like Aristotle, Descartes, Kant and Peirce, to his work on the philosophy of science and logic. A common denominator for his writings across the board is his special take on inquiry in both epistemological and methodological terms. In November 2007, Hintikka's collected papers on epistemology, entitled Socratic Epistemology, will be released with Cambridge University Press and what better occasion than this to reflect upon the epistemology and methodology of Jaakko Hintikka.
