Central APA, Joint Session of the Karl Jaspers Society of North America and the Gabriel Marcel Society

The content of the joint session is broadly construed, but with an eye toward contributions that draw from, or are indebted to, the work of Karl Jaspers and Gabriel Marcel. Differences and similarities of these two philosophers are discussed in view of existentialism and politics. Contributions that integrate current political realities are especially encouraged.

Presentations are held to a maximum of 20 minutes presentation time, with emphasis on dialogue, since the event will be videotaped and an edited version of the recording will be posted online. All participants are encouraged to submit their final, edited papers for consideration to be published either in Marcel Studies or in Existenz. All contributors are welcome regardless of membership. A registration fee of $25.00 applies for all who are not an active member in either the Gabriel Marcel Society or the Karl Jaspers Society of North America.

Please send your working title and a brief abstract (200 words) to the program chair, Jill Hernandez, at [email protected] by September 15, 2017.
