CALL FOR PAPERS
The 5th annual meeting of the International Society for the History of
the Neurosciences (ISHN) will be held Sunday, 11 June to Wednesday, 14
June 2000, in the historic city of Providence, Rhode Island (USA).
The ISHN encourages contributions about all of the history of all of
the neurosciences, including basic and clinical specialties, ancient
and non-Western topics, technical advances, and broad social and
cultural aspects.
The structure of the meeting will be platform and poster papers as well
as thematic symposia, all to be refereed by the program committee.
There will not be parallel sessions. Platform papers are normally about
15-20 minutes in duration followed by 5-10 minutes for discussion.
Poster papers are allowed an 8 x 4 foot poster board area. Thematic
symposia consist of 3 or 4 platform papers submitted together on a
specific theme.
DEADLINE FOR SUBMISSION: 15 JANUARY 2000. The program will be
finalized by late March 2000.
ABSTRACT FORMAT: Please submit your abstract on a single sheet of
paper with medium to large font (e.g., Times New Roman 12 point or
Arial 11 point) and wide margins (1 inch or more). Do not pack the
page. Specify whether you are applying for a platform or poster
presentation.

Duane Haines (see below).
The ISHN encourages all presenters to submit their papers to the
Society's official publication, the _Journal of the History of the
Neurosciences_.
ABSTRACTS PREPARATION ASSISTANCE: The purpose of the ISHN is to
increase the quantity and quality of research in neurohistory. Anyone
who wants assistance in the preparation of an abstract and/or paper for
this meeting is invited to contact a committee--composed of ISHN
members who are not on the Program Committee--which has been organized
to provide this service. Abstracts must be submitted to this
service well in advance of the above deadline (January 15, 2000).

MEETING INFORMATION
Venue: All paper and poster sessions will be held in the Providence
Biltmore Hotel, a refurbished 1920s hotel that is affiliated with the
Grand Heritage Hotels chain. It is located at the west end of Kennedy
Plaza (11 Dorrance Street; map) in the center of Providence's restored
and energetic downtown.
Transportation: There is direct bus service (Bonanza Bus Lines) to
Kennedy Plaza from New York and Boston, and also from Boston's Logan
Airport and Rhode Island's T.F. Green Airport. Domestic air fares to
Providence are quite cheap because other airlines (American,
Continental, Delta, Northwest, United, US Airways) have to compete with
Southwest Airlines. Air Canada has commuter flights from Toronto.
Boston/Logan is well served by many direct flights to and from Europe.
The Biltmore is also only a few blocks (an easy walk without luggage)
from the Providence Amtrak Station. Amtrak hopes to have its new, high
speed train service (to and from Boston and New York) in place by
Spring 2000.
Hotel Reservations: A block of rooms has been reserved at the
Providence Biltmore Hotel at $119 per night (single or double) or $139
(small suite). Please make your reservations directly with the
Reservations Office at the Biltmore and ask for the group rate for the
ISHN. The cutoff date for these reservations is 12 MAY 2000.
Student Housing: Dormitory rooms (singles, air conditioned) will be
available on the Brown University campus at $35 per night. The Brown
campus is about a 20-25 minute walk to the Biltmore. Frequent
"trolleys" (buses) are available a few blocks from the dorms; they go
directly to Kennedy Plaza. To obtain a registration form forthese
rooms, please contact:

Financial Assistance: The ISHN has allocated some limited funds to
assist with travel expenses for students (pursuing any degree,
undergraduate or graduate) whose abstracts have been accepted and who
must travel expensive distances. The Program Committee will determine
the distribution of these funds based on (1) the quality of abstracts
and (2) applicants' projected travel expenses, recognizing that
sometimes it costs more to travel modest distances than long ones. If
you wish to apply for this assistance, please include with your
abstract a short paragraph of request and explanation (with your
projected expenses) on a separate sheet.
Area Attractions: Providence is an old city (by American standards!),
with many historic neighborhoods and interesting museums and libraries.
In addition to Brown University, the Rhode Island School of Design
helps set the tone for the city's recent revival. Rhode Island is
famous for its beaches and for the late 19th century "cottages" of the
nouveaux riche in Newport. Boston is only an hour away. For more
information about things to see and do in the area, contact the toll
free visitor information number: 800-233-1636. For assistance with any
other arrangements in the area, please contact Dr. Greenblatt.

INTENTIONALITY AND THE NATURE OF LAWS
One of the central topic in recent philosophy of mind concerns the
possibility of giving a reductive analysis of intentional content. Many
think that for showing that intentional psychology is a science it is
necessary to analyze thought-content in nomic-causal terms. The lecture
attempts to show that the intentional cannot be reduced to the nomic. It
grounds its claim on the assumption that none of the available concepts
of laws allows for the assumed nomological analysis.
First we must distinguish between lawlike sentences and laws in the
metaphysical sense. If laws are but sentences of the form of a
universally quantified conditional then no reductive analysis of
intentional content can invoke the concept of a law since sentences
themselves are intentional objects. Therefore the nomological analysis
must assume that laws of nature are possible objects of scientific
discovery and not only constructs of language. The Ramsey - Lewis
analysis of laws take them to be members of "an integrated system of
truths which combines simplicity with strength in the best possible
way". Another current view of laws claims that laws are second order
facts about first order universals. The third view takes laws to be
relations between possible worlds: whatever remains invariant when we
shift from one physically possible world to another is a law of nature.
It will be shown that none of these conceptions fit the purpose of
assumed "laws about intentionality".
Finally I will argue that sciences which deal with phenomena only
globally supervenient on physics should not attempt to give nomological
explanations. (Ha mindenki beszel magyarul, akkor az eloadas magyarul
lesz!)

CALL FOR PAPERS for the PANEL SESSION
SPATIAL RELATIONS IN NATURAL LANGUAGE
(THE CONCEPTUALIZATION, CONSTRUCTION AND SITUATED USE OF SPATIAL RELATIONS
IN NATURAL LANGUAGE - title in full)
as part of the 7th INTERNATIONAL PRAGMATICS CONFERENCE organized by the
International Pragmatics Association (IPrA), to be held in Budapest,
Hungary, 9-14 July 2000.
Panel organizers:
L=E1szl=F3 I. Koml=F3si (P=E9cs ); email: Komlosi(a)btk.jpte.hu
Hubert Cuyckens (Leuven); email: Hubert.Cuyckens(a)arts.kuleuven.ac.be
The PANEL SESSION on THE CONCEPTUALIZATION, CONSTRUCTION AND SITUATED USE
OF SPATIAL RELATIONS IN NATURAL LANGUAGE is an initiative to bring together
linguists, cognitive scientists, philosophers, etc., attending the 7th
International Pragmatics for a specifically-focused forum to discuss the
pragmatics-related aspects of the relation between language and spatial
cognition, the conceptualization of abstract relations in terms of spatial
relations and its symbolization in natural language, and the construal of
spatial relations in language.=20
.The PANEL SESSIONS on SPATIAL RELATIONS IN NATURAL LANGUAGE will be held
in the PARALLEL SESSIONS slot of the IprA 2000 Conference program. The
final number of the PANEL SESSION units on SPATIAL RELATIONS will be
determined by the number of contributions accepted for presentation. The
maximum number of contributions to the panel is twelve (for a total of
three units).
Each PANEL SESSION will meet for 90 minutes, and comprises a set of four
15-minute contributions and 30 minutes of general discussion. Written
versions or extensive outlines of all panel contributions should be made
available to the other contributors prior to the conference to facilitate
