In this talk, I will first motivate CML by appealing to recent arguments to the effect that subclassical logics play a fundamental role in building theories. Secondly, I will introduce the axiomatisation and model theory for CML. From an axiomatic point of view, CML is a modal extension of classical propositional logic, where modalities are closed under relevant entailment (or equivalence). From a semantic point of view, models for contextual modal logics are obtained by individuating classical possible worlds within Routley\u2014Meyer models for relevant modal logic. Finally, I will report on some recent applications of CML to hyperintensional epistemic logics, topic\u2014sensitive epistemic logics and Ramsey conditionals.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Speaker: Pietro Vigiani (Central European University)<br \/>\nDate and Time: Thursday, October&nbsp;30th 2025, 16:30-18:00<br \/>\nVenue: online only<br \/>\nTitle: Epistemic applications of contextual modal logics<br \/>\nAbstract.
