Recent scholarship on Francisco Suá\;rez and others has shown that the study of early modern scholasticism is  \;illuminating vis-à\;-vis the philosophical background of &ldquo\;canonical&rdquo\; early modern philosophy as well as being philosophically rewarding in its own right. As is well known\, disagreements about substance figure centrally in early modern thought. To come to a better understanding of early modern scholasticism\, an important but neglected movement in the history of philosophy\, we invite abstracts on the theme of substance in early modern scholasticism (roughly 1500-1750). The aim of the conference is to investigate the extent to which early modern scholastics departed from or developed Aristotelian conceptions of substance\, to learn more about the philosophical problems associated with Aristotelian conceptions\, and to uncover ways in which early modern scholastics might have influenced\, directly or otherwise\, &ldquo\;canonical&rdquo\; philosophers such as Descartes\, Leibniz\, and Locke. Relevant topics include but are not limited to:
\n·\;  \; \; \; \; \; \;The analysis of substance\, accidents\, and modes
\n·\;  \; \; \; \; \; \;Matter
\n·\;  \; \; \; \; \; \;Substantial and accidental form
\n·\;  \; \; \; \; \; \;The plurality of forms debate
\n·\;  \; \; \; \; \; \;Unity
\n·\;  \; \; \; \; \; \;Origin of forms and preformation
\n·\;  \; \; \; \; \; \;Extension and quantity
\n·\;  \; \; \; \; \; \;Individuation
\n·\;  \; \; \; \; \; \;The soul and its faculties
\nTarget philosophers include but are not limited to the following\, possibly in relation to other ancient\, medieval\, or early modern philosophers:
\n·\;  \; \; \; \; \; \;Domingo de Soto
\n·\;  \; \; \; \; \; \;John Capreolus
\n·\;  \; \; \; \; \; \;Pedro da Fonseca
