Fall 2021 Sawyer Seminar Conference

Monday, September 13, 2021

We are pleased to announce the program of the conference "Analysis and Synthesis in Historical and Systematic Perspectives," to be held September 29-October 2, 2021 at the Department of History and Philosophy of Science and Medicine, Indiana University (Bloomington, Indiana). The conference is part of a Sawyer Seminar, a year-long research institute funded by the USA-based Mellon Foundation. The overall topic for the year is “Rigor: Experimental Control, Analysis, and Synthesis in Historical and Systematic Perspectives”. The fall conference will deal specifically with the history of analysis and synthesis – material, philosophical, and mathematical - as methods of demonstration (in both the informal and strict senses).

The conference will take place entirely on Zoom.
Participation is free, but please register by email at  rigor@indiana.edu 


Conference Schedule Friedrich Steinle Lecture
