ESSLLI 2008
Evening Lectures
Sommerabendvorlesungen Logik, Sprache, Information
It is a tradition at ESSLLI to have a number of evening lectures of
eminent scholars and researchers of the field who not only reach out to
the entire ESSLLI community, but even beyond to the general audience.
These evening lectures will be open to the general public and will be
widely advertised at the Universität Hamburg and in local newspapers. The
evening lectures are supposed to provide a research overview of some parts
of our community understandable for everyone. Under the title
Sommerabendvorlesungen Logik, Sprache, Information, all students of
the university and teachers of local high schools will be invited to join
us for the evening lectures.
We are extremely pleased to have attracted excellent evening lecturers
for ESSLLI 2008. On 5 August, we will start the series of four lectures
with a German-language introduction for non-participants of ESSLLI.
