DESCRIPTION:<p>In his recent book <em>The Uses of Idolatry</em> (OUP 2024)\, William T. Cavanaugh argues that worship has not disappeared from our supposedly &laquo\;secular&raquo\; world\, but has merely changed its target. Instead of God\, created things and structures are worshipped. Cavanaugh examines modern forms of idolatry\, such as nationalism and consumer culture\, and shows how people become dominated by their own creations. Drawing on insights from history\, theology\, philosophy\, political science\, sociology and cultural studies\, the book recognizes idolatry as more than merely a &laquo\;religious&raquo\; phenomenon and views the critique of idolatry as a genuinely interdisciplinary project with the aim of revealing how and why we sacrifice ourselves and others to gods of our own design. The fo&chi\;s Summer School 2026 offers an opportunity to discuss these provocative theses and approaches with the author and to explore their consequences for our view of ourselves\, our culture and our academic work.</p>\n<p>The Summer School is designed for advanced undergraduate\, graduate\, and doctoral students in all disciplines\, willing to engage in in-depth study of philosophical\, intellectual-historical\, and theological developments.</p>

DESCRIPTION:<p>The Charles S. Peirce Society is delighted to announce a new essay contest for current undergraduate students or recent undergraduate students who have not yet begun graduate studies.

See below the call for submissions.<br><strong>Prize:&nbsp\;</strong>$300\; recognition by the Peirce Society at its annual meeting\, in its newsletter\, and on its website.<br><strong>Open to:&nbsp\;</strong>Any current undergraduate student and anyone who was an undergraduate student&nbsp\;within the past ten years and who is not a current or former graduate student.<br><strong>Topic</strong>: Any topic relating to the work of Charles S.

Although undergraduates are not expected to have full command of Peirce&rsquo\;s work or the literature on it\, papers that demonstrate substantial familiarity with both are preferred.<br><strong>AI Statement:&nbsp\;</strong>While we do not totally prohibit the use of AI tools\, submissions must be the author&rsquo\;s own work. In the submission email\, authors must disclose any use of AI tools\, specifying whether\, how\, and why AI was used.&nbsp\;<br><strong>Deadline:&nbsp\;</strong>September 30th\, 2026\; the winner to be announced by January 2027.<br><strong>Submission Instructions:&nbsp\;</strong>Prepare the essay for anonymous evaluation and submit it as an attachment to&nbsp\;<a href="mailto:peircesociety@gmail.com">peircesociety@gmail.com</a>&nbsp\;with the subject heading &ldquo\;undergraduate Peirce essay contest&rdquo\;.

SUMMARY:University of Chicago Philosophy Review (Form)

DESCRIPTION:<p>The University of Chicago Philosophy Review is accepting undergraduate shortform paper submissions on form (&le\;1500 words).</p>\n<p>CFP: Philosophy and Form</p>\n<p>The University of Chicago Philosophy Review is looking for reflections on Philosophical forms to be published on its online experimental section Meditations.&nbsp\;</p>\n<p>We are looking for both experimentation and analysis of philosophical form.&nbsp\;</p>\n<p>In experimentation with form we are looking for philosophical inquiries written in a non-traditional format tackling any topic. This means socratic dialogues\, scholastic structure\, aphorisms\, diagrams\, and anything else of the sort is wanted.&nbsp\;</p>\n<p>Analysis on form is also welcome. This would look like more traditional philosophical essays tackling\, analyzing\, or questioning the format in which philosophy is done. Why do we default to the essay? Is there a better form in which to do philosophy? Questions such as this and more are encouraged.</p>\n<p>Analyses and experimentations on form do not have to be related or submitted together. If you find it to the benefit of your argument to do so then you are more than welcome to\, but The Review recommends you focus on one\, lest one spreads their philosophical efforts too thin.</p>\n<p>Pieces should be fewer than 1\,500 words and be formatted in Chicago Style. Creative\, experimental\, and unorthodox writing is encouraged\, so long as a high standard of philosophical rigour is maintained.</p>\n<p>Submissions will be subject to a blind peer review process. The Review will notify authors of its decisions on a rolling basis\, starting September 30th\, 2026. Submissions close on April 4th\, 2027.</p>\n<p>The Philosophy and Form submission form can be found here: https://forms.gle/M5SjhRfyGMFsnBrd9&nbsp\;</p>\n<p>Questions? Contact us via email (ucprboard@gmail.com)</p>\n<p>Past meditations can be found on our website.</p>
