C.\, United States\, 20064 DESCRIPTION:

Philosophical inquiries \;into education have throughout the history of philosophy born repeated and august fruit. \;Again and again\, we find that the question of education becomes the question of philosophy itself. \;

This conference proposes the topic of \;philosophy &\; education \;to include both philosophical treatments of education as well as treatments of philosophy \;as \;education.

We welcome a variety of approaches including interpretations of the work of philosophers ancient to modern as far as they address the topic\, as well as strictly thematic inquiries on such issues as

epistemological \;questions: the mechanics of learning\, teaching\, and coming to know
political \;questions: liberal and liberating education\, the function of educational institutions
ethical \;questions: the moral responsibility of educators\, the purpose of education
metaphysical questions: who is the teacher? pedagogue v. demagogue\; philosopher v. sophist

Submit \;abstracts \;of 200-400 words as a PDF prepared \;for \;blind \;review \;to \;cua.gradconference@gmail.com \;by \;16 \;December 2016.
\;Include name and institution in body of email.
You will be \;notified \;of admission \;by 6 January 2017.
