Proof in Mathematics: Logical, historical, and 
philosophical approaches. 24-28 May, 2005, Lille, 
France.
The goal of the meeting is to bring together a 
variety of prominent scholars engaged in the 
study of the notion of proof in mathematics and 
to create a forum in which different styles of 
analysis can come together and explore new 
possibilities of interaction.Further information 
about the meeting can be requested writing to
