Overview

The Seminar Series on the History of Logic represents an ongoing institutional initiative established at the Department of Humanities at Federico II University of Naples in September 2024. The series functions as a structured program for scholarly engagement with historical and contemporary developments in logical thought and methodology. Ancillary activities, including the 1st Naples Workshop on the History of Logic, extend the scope of investigation and facilitate collaborative research exchange among specialists.

Methods and approach

The initiative employs a seminar-based framework for systematic examination of historical developments in logic. The series establishes recurring sessions within an academic department, creating sustained engagement with historiographical analysis and thematic investigation. The associated workshop format, held on October 28-29, 2025, provides concentrated periods for collaborative presentation and discussion of specialized research contributions, facilitating broader institutional and interdisciplinary engagement with the subject domain.

Results

The seminar series has been operationalized as an ongoing program within the department structure, with documented scheduling since September 2024. The 1st Naples Workshop on the History of Logic was conducted as a two-day event, generating a venue for concentrated scholarly exchange. These institutional activities have established a formal framework for the circulation of research in the history of logic within and potentially beyond the host institution.

Implications

The establishment of sustained seminar programming and workshop events indicates institutional commitment to the history of logic as a research focus area within humanities scholarship. The organizational structure supports continuity of scholarly investigation and creates infrastructure for knowledge exchange among researchers engaged with historical and philosophical dimensions of logical thought and development.
