DESCRIPTION:<p>Contact:<strong>&nbsp\;amy206@lehigh.edu</strong></p>\n<p><strong><br></strong>The Lehigh University Philosophy Department invites submissions for our first annual philosophy conference.&nbsp\;&nbsp\;Submissions should address one of two dimensions of the conference theme: either aspects of the often under-read or overlooked final chapters\, sections\, or moments of philosophical texts\, or philosophy's relation to the idea of its own "final chapter" or of that of some other domain.</p>\n<p>Topics for submissions focusing on the theme&rsquo\;s first dimension&mdash\;texts-- include\, but are not limited to:&nbsp\;&nbsp\;How do the text's concluding thoughts stand in relation to the remainder of the work? How do they inform or deform the coherence of the philosophical project at hand?&nbsp\;&nbsp\;How does one properly end a philosophical work? Is it important to attend to the last chapter? Papers may treat specific texts or specific oeuvres: e.g.\, the<em>Critique of Pure Reason</em>&nbsp\;or Kant's oeuvre\,&nbsp\;<em>Tractatus</em>&nbsp\;7 or Wittgenstein's oeuvre\,&nbsp\;<em>Leviathan</em>&nbsp\;or Hobbes&rsquo\;s oeuvre.&nbsp\;&nbsp\;Submissions are welcome on any period of philosophy or employing any method of following philosophical inspiration.&nbsp\;&nbsp\;<br></p>\n<p><br></p>\n<p>Papers focusing on the second theme dimension might address such questions as these: Does or should philosophy see itself as aiming for a concluding chapter or as eventually reaching an end?&nbsp\;&nbsp\;Is our enterprise necessarily interminable? If not a conclusion\, what other ends\, if any\, does or should philosophy seek? How does or might philosophy distinctively address the end(s) or endings in other disciplines or domains of life?</p>\n\n<p><strong>Submission deadline:</strong><strong><br>May 1\, 2013<br><br></strong>notification by June 15\, 2013<br><br></p>\n<p>Electronic submission of detailed abstracts (750-1000 words) should be in MSWord or pdf format.&nbsp\;&nbsp\;Reading time for presented papers is 30 minutes.</p>\n\n<p>Send abstracts as attachments to<strong>&nbsp\;amy206@lehigh.edu</a>&nbsp\;</strong>with &ldquo\;conference submission&rdquo\; as the subject.<strong></strong>Please include in body of e-mail your name\, paper title\, institutional affiliation\, and contact information.</p>
