DESCRIPTION:<p>Dear Colleagues\,</p>\n\n<p>I earlier sent out a call for papers for the 2020 West Coast Plato Workshop\, which the steering committee had decided to focus on the <em>Lysis</em>. It now seems\, however\, that not many of our colleagues are working on this dialogue. So I have decided to extend the deadline for submissions to November 15 (see below for specific instructions). I have also decided to expand the topic of the conference. </p>\n\n<p>The <strong><em>new</em></strong> topic for the 2020 West Coast Plato Workshop is: <strong><em>Desire\, Love\, and Friendship in Plato's Dialogues</em></strong>.</p>\n\n<p>Any paper within this general area or on any dialogue(s) in which these interests appear will be gladly considered.</p>\n\n<p>The workshop will take place May 22-24\, 2020\, at Lewis &amp\; Clark College in Portland\, Oregon.<span style="font-size: 12.0pt\; font-family: 'Times New\n        Roman'\,serif\; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New\n        Roman'\;"><br> </p>\n\n<p><span style="font-size: 12.0pt\; font-family: 'Times New\n        Roman'\,serif\; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New\n        Roman'\;">Submissions should consist in two separate pages: (i) the title of the paper\, name(s)\, academic rank(s)\, affiliation(s)\, and <u>email</u> contact(s) of author(s)\; (ii) title and no more than 500-word abstract prepared for blind review. Submissions should be double-spaced and 12-pitch\, in MSWord\, PDF\, or RTF formats only.  <span style="font-size: 12.0pt\; font-family: 'Times New\n        Roman'\,serif\; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New\n        Roman'\;"><br> </p>\n\n<p><span style="font-size: 12.0pt\; font-family: 'Times New\n        Roman'\,serif\; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New\n        Roman'\;">Refereeing for submissions will be blind and will be done by past and present hosts of the WCPW.
