Each year the Claremont Annual Philosophy of Religion Conference brings together thinkers from different religions\, traditions\, and academic disciplines to discuss one particular theme in the fields of Religion\, Theology and Philosophy of Religion. The theme of the 40th conference will be \;Humanity: An Endangered Idea? \;
\nFor more information on the conference topic\, see: cgu.edu/pofrconference.
\nThe Udo Keller Stiftung Forum Humanum (Hamburg) has generously provided 10 conference grants ($2200 each) to enable doctoral students and new PHDs (not earlier than 2014) to participate in the conference. The grant is meant to cover all expenses. Recipients will have the opportunity to attend the conference on Friday and Saturday and to present a paper (15 double-spaced pages) on the topic of the conference. To create space for the discussion of their contributions\, a pre-conference seminar will be held on Thursday\, February 16\, on the same topic as the main conference. All grant recipients will be expected to participate in this seminar and introduce not their own but one of the other papers for discussion. Five papers will be chosen for publication along with the conference contributions in the Claremont Studies of Philosophy of Religion (Mohr Siebeck Tü\;bingen).
\nWe invite doctoral students and recent PhDs to submit a one page CV and a 5 page abstract of their proposed paper on the topic of &lsquo\;Humanity: An Endangered Idea?&rsquo\; (word\, double-spaced\, anonymous for blind review). \;Applications should be sent by email to
