Dedicated to the memory of Jan Šebestík (1931–2026)

The conference aimed to open up a space bringing together all those who are interested in one way or another in Bolzano’s work in mathematics and related topics, particularly those who place it in context.

You can consult here the latest issue of Filosofický časopis, of the editorial board of which Jan Šebestík was a member, which features a collection of texts (in Czech) in his memory.

In addition, you can check out the programme here and download the poster, by Jana Říhová and Elías, here.
