\nDescription:
\n \; \; \; \; \; \;  \;We invite papers that thematically engage the philosophy of mythology within the Continental tradition writ large. On the one hand\, contributors are invited to explore the philosophical thought of the major figures within the history of the philosophy of mythology in the Continental and related traditions\, such as Vico\, Schlegel\, Schelling\, Freud\, Miki Kiyoshi\, Cassirer\, Claude Lé\;vi-Strauss\, Blumenberg\, Adorno\, Girard\, Žižek\, and other related philosophers of mythology. On the other hand\, participants are invited to investigate the systematic significance\, relevance\, and problem of mythological thought as it pertains to other areas of philosophical inquiry\, such as the philosophy of culture\, philosophical anthropology\, comparative philosophy\, epistemology\, metaphysics\, aesthetics\, political philosophy\, ethics\, and beyond.
\n \; \; \; \; \; \; \;The Philosophy of Mythology in the Continental Tradition \;is a part of a larger grant project that is investigating the prospect that myth is an \;independent \;cultural form that cannot be understood by reducing it \;to \;or modelling it \;upon \;any other form of culture. Given this over-arching framework funded by the University Grants Council of Hong Kong\, special consideration will be given to papers that critically engage with the concept of the autonomy of myth as it appears in Cassirer&rsquo\;s \;Philosophy of Symbolic Forms \;or Schelling&rsquo\;s \;tautegorical \;conception of myth that he develops in his 1842 lectures\, most recently appearing in English as the \;Historical-Critical Introduction to the Philosophy of Mythology.
