Tomorrow, I get to saddle one of my hobbyhorses. I am giving a lecture on medieval semantics centering around the Square of Opposition. This is part of MIT’s cool “Independent Activities Period”, during which one of our students, David Hill, has organized a series of talks on Pre-Modern and Early Modern Linguistic Thought.
If you’re nearby, come and join us: Thursday 1/19/06, 1:30pm in Room 32-144.
Update: It was fun. My slides from the talk are available, although they might not be very self-explanatory. I recommend Terry Parson’s article on the square of opposition, if you’re interested. One of these years, I will write up my own thoughts on this.
