And what is it for a proposition to be true exactly at a given location, as opposed to being true all over or entirely within that location? We develop a unified modal framework for these distinctions designed to capture a family of locational relations for propositions, but we find that exact location is resistant to the treatment. We argue that to be true exactly at a location is not just a matter of what pattern of truth across locations a proposition may exemplify.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>This event is funded by Portuguese national funds through FCT \u2013 Funda\u00e7\u00e3o para a Ci\u00eancia e a Tecnologia, I.P., within the project UID\/00310\/2025, Centro de Filosofia da Universidade de Lisboa (<a href=\"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.54499\/UIDB\/00310\/2025\">https:\/\/doi.org\/10.54499\/UIDB\/00310\/2025<\/a>)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Patterns of Truth: Location and Modality Gabriel Uzquiano (University of Southern California) &nbsp; 20 March 2026, 16:00 (Lisbon Time \u2013 WET) Faculdade de Letras de Lisboa Sala Mattos Rom\u00e3o [C201.J] (Departamento de Filosofia) &nbsp; Abstract:\u00a0When is a proposition true at a location, whether a time, a place or a world?
