This two-day workshop will mark the 300th Birthday of philosopher Immanuel Kant and highlight some of the excellent Kant scholarship being conducted in Canada.
The workshop is a pilot initiative focusing initially on colleagues working in Ontario and Quebec. By bringing these philosophers together, the workshop will make a first step toward establishing a network of Kant scholars in Canada, including emerging scholars and graduate students researching on Kant.

Graduate students currently researching Kant’s philosophy at a Canadian university are invited to submit an abstract prepared for blind review (around 500 words), a CV and a motivation letter (1 page) detailing their research interests and how they would benefit from presenting at the workshop. Submission materials should be sent to Logan Ginther ([email protected]) by October 31, 2024.
The selected graduate speaker will have their travel costs fully covered. Students shortlisted but not selected to present will be offered travel bursaries to attend the workshop in person. In total, four graduate students from outside McMaster University will be funded to attend the workshop.
Papers will be presented in an intimate and friendly setting, followed by a Q&A and discussion open to all participants. The workshop will include a public keynote lecture by Arthur Ripstein (Toronto) at the end of the first day of the workshop.
