International Society for Philosophy in Film 1st Annual Meeting: Film Noir

The Society for Philosophy and Film invites extended abstracts for its first annual conference, on the theme Film Noir. In line with ISPiF’s mission, papers ought to focus on developing the thought inherent to films, either individually or collectively, that fall under the category/genre/movement of noir cinema, broadly construed.

Submission Guidelines and Instructions:

Extended abstracts should be 500-750 words, with standard font and margins.

Deadline: The deadline for receipt of abstracts is April 1, 2022. Any submission received after midnight Pacific time on this date will not be considered.

Final papers, no longer than 15 pages, double spaced, must be provided by July 15th in order to be distributed to all participants in advance of the symposium. This is crucial to the format and success of the symposium, where authors will be provided only 10-12 minutes to summarize, emphasize, or develop further the contents of the full essay. This, combined with all participants reading each accepted paper in advance, will allow for a significant amount of time for questions, discussions and a genuine exchange in every case.

All Submissions must be received as either a Word Document or PDF attachment sent to [email protected]
