We are delighted to announce the second annual meeting of the \;Hopkins Seminar in Medieval and Early Modern Philosophy\, scheduled to take place at the Homewood Campus of Johns Hopkins University\, Baltimore\, on December 8th-9th\, 2024.
Like similar seminars\, \;HSMEMP \;is an informal group\, formed to foster the exchange of ideas among scholars of medieval and early modern philosophy (roughly\, 400-1780 CE). We will accept abstracts of papers focusing solely on early modern philosophy or solely on medieval philosophy\, though we encourage submission of abstracts exploring issues covering both periods. \;We also strongly encourage submission of abstracts on women philosophers and on non-European philosophy (Jewish\, Islamic\, Chinese\, African\, Indian etc.) from these periods. We are likely to have one of our sessions in a hybrid form using Zoom.
Please submit anonymized abstracts (up to 1 page long) as an email attachment\, sent to \;connolly@jhu.edu \;. Include your name in your email\, and the last 5 digits of your phone number on both the email and your abstract. If you would like to present your paper on Zoom\, please indicate that. \; \;For further inquiries\, please email \;ymelame1@jhu.edu
Abstract submission deadline: \;October 1st\, 2024.
Invited speakers: \; \;Michael Della Rocca (Yale) and Hashem Morvarid (Johns Hopkins) \;
\nThe organizers will aim to make available the program\, along with further information\, by October 15th\, 2024. \; \; The organizers will make a serious effort to cover at least part \;of the travel and accommodation expenses for graduate students/recent Ph.D.s \; \;whose papers are accepted for presentation.

The Seminar is supported be generous grants from the William H. Miller III Department of Philosophy and the Singleton Center for the Study of Premodern Europe at Johns Hopkins University.
