Abstract: We articulate the view that mutually interpretable statements have identical meanings. We then argue against this view by showing that it would make unintelligible an important mathematical practice, namely that of purity of methods.

ATTENTION: Since May 12 is not a regular day at Faculdade de Ciências, people intending to come to the seminar should confirm that to Gilda Ferreira by Wednesday, May 10.

This seminar is supported by National Funding from FCT - Fundação para a Ciência e a Tecnologia, under the project: UID/MAT/04561/2013.
