CALL FOR PAPERS

Much of Aristotelian scholarship focuses primarily on the Aristotelian corpus and his philosophical influences. The conference will not only take this approach into consideration, but also expand the scope of the Aristotelian spirit to all generations of the Western philosophical canon. The objective is to better understand the Aristotelian spirit as it has animated the different philosophers of different ages, all accentuating the salient themes of the peripatetic tradition.

This conference invites papers relating to any philosopher or philosophical tradition that has made a direct or a subtle connection with the Aristotelian philosophy or the peripatetic spirit in our tradition. Since the conference is bilingual, we invite papers in either French or English. Graduate students are also encouraged to submit an abstract. Abstracts should be no more than one page (double-spaced) and must include a contact email address or number, along with one’s affiliated university.

The symposium will take place at the Dominican University College, Ottawa. The keynote speaker will be Dr. Klaus Brinkmann (Boston University).
