Infinity in Early Modern Phlosophy

The 6th NYC Workshop in Early Modern Philosophy will take place at the Van Leer Institute in Jerusalem, Israel on June 19-20, 2016. This year's workshop will be dedicated to the topic of infinity in early modern philosophy. The workshop particularly welcomes treatments of the infinite's role in mathematical, theological, scientific, metaphysical, political, and aesthetic contexts during the early modern period (roughly, 1600-1800). The workshop aims to foster exchange and collaboration between both scholars and students of early modern philosophy.

Please submit abstracts of 250-300 words (prepared for blind review) to [email protected] no later than February 15, 2016. The program will be made available in March 2016. Submissions will also be considered for a planned edited volume. The conference will provide accommodations and meals for all speakers (but will not be able to cover other travel costs, such as airfare). Further details will be made available through the conference website: nycearlymodernworkshop.weebly.com
