Center for the Study of Scottish Philosophy Conference

  • March 11-13, 2016: The Center for the Study of Scottish Philosophy hosts a conference on “Scottish Philosophy before the Enlightenment.” The CSSP is looking for papers that explore both prominent figures and philosophical themes that shaped Scottish intellectual debate before the Enlightenment (e.g. John Mair, the Logic curriculum, Cartesianism, Reformation theology) and papers that explore philosophical sources and themes from earlier centuries in the Scottish philosophers of the 18th and 19th centuries (e.g. Plato, Aristotle, the rejection of Stoicism, Epicureanism, Natural Law).
  • Proposals should take the form of a 300 word abstract and be submitted to cssp@ptsem.edu by November 30th 2015. Decisions will be advised by mid-December.
