ORGANIZER;CN="Tomás N. Castro";CN=Filipa Afonso;CN=Maria Leonor Xavier: METHOD:PUBLISH END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20240319T010455Z DTSTART;TZID=Europe/London:20240331T230000 DTEND;TZID=Europe/London:20240331T230000 SUMMARY:Special Issue of the Journal Philosophies: "Ancient and Medieval Theories of Soul" UID:20240319T010457Z-iCalPlugin-Grails@philevents-web-6f97df9687-7c6q9 TZID:Europe/London DESCRIPTION:Soul as an object of philosophical enquiry has always formed a point of convergence between metaphysics and ethics\, and hence anthropology\, as well as natural philosophy\, especially qua biology. Philosophers have been pondering about soul&rsquo\;s status\, structure and interrelations from the very beginnings of philosophy\, and still do today\, despite the more recent development of psychology as an autonomous scientific discipline with various subdivisions. The journal \;Philosophies\, sensitive not only to core issues calling for philosophical reflection\, but also to the various historical and cultural settings in which philosophical concepts and theological ideas were put forth\, aims to devote a Special Issue to what pertains to theories of soul that were formulated in Antiquity and the Long Middle Ages. The time delineation makes sense\, since the Middle Ages\, in its triple expression in Western Europe (Latin-speaking)\, Byzantium (Greek-speaking) and the Islamic World\, can be seen as the inheritor of the ancient philosophical wisdom\, which dealt specifically with soul (of both human and non-human beings).
\nHence\, we are pleased to invite you to submit articles on the topic as has been broadly defined above. Papers can be comparative (in both the diachronic and the synchronic axes) or not\; in the case of comparative articles\, philosophy and science in the Renaissance would be another point of reference in itself (as an inheritor of ancient and medieval wisdom)\, as well as its so-called \;scientiae occultae. Topics may include (but are not limited to) the following: divisions and faculties of soul\; soul and personal identity\; soul&rsquo\;s relation to body\; the role and mechanics of cognition\; the role and mechanics of sense-perception\; imagination\, dreams and prophecy\; soul as an image of the divine\; the state of intellect\; soul&rsquo\;s desires and will.
\nWe look forward to receiving your contributions.

Dear Colleagues\,
\nThis Special Issue explores how Thomas Aquinas and the Thomists from different ages related their thought to the natural and cognitive sciences\, both from a systematic and an historical perspective. What can contemporary theology\, philosophy\, and science and religion\, as well as the history of these disciplines\, gain from an engagement with the thought of Thomas Aquinas and his appropriation and integration of\, and perspectives on\, the natural and cognitive sciences? Additionally\, how did Thomists in later centuries live up to this challenge? What is the status quo of Aquinas scholarship and Thomistic contributions on science and theology\, or more recently science-engaged theology\, today? Contributions to historical and systematic scholarship are welcome. The subject matter of the submitted work may pertain to a broad spectrum of disciplines\, including history\, philosophy\, theology\, religious studies\, science-engaged theology\, and science and religion.

Topic: The internal senses play a central part in the medieval theories of cognition. They account for bringing together the information from the external senses\, storing or reshaping it\, apprehending whether what is sensed is dangerous or pleasant\, cognizing and recognizing it as an individual\, and again storing the information involved in all these acts. Given this part they play\, the internal senses have been the subject matter of considerable debates during the Middle Ages\, and consequently have not been neglected by the historians of philosophy.
\nHowever\, the internal senses can account for much more than the mentioned acts. Belonging to the sensitive soul\, the internal senses are mostly common to humans and animals. Their number or functioning\, independent of or dependent on the intellect\, settles or breaks the commonality with animals. From a different angle\, the internal senses are meant to bridge the gap between the external senses and the intellect. In doing so\, they provide the intellect with content for thought. They are responsible for the interaction between the body and the intellect\, the causal influence the body can have on the intellect and the unity of the human soul. Thus\, they also contribute to bodily awareness\, the sense of the self\, and the individuation of thoughts.
\nSuch issues have been tackled by scholars in the past years. It is what makes the internal senses a hot topic. Our intention nevertheless is to increase the temperature. We want to make the internal senses an even hotter topic. There are still medieval texts that have not been taken into consideration in the past years&rsquo\; outputs or that deserve a closer examination\; there are issues that have not been taken into consideration or that deserve a closer examination. We thus invite papers on subjects that include but are not limited to:
\n \;
\nSubmission guidelines: The abstracts\, each around 500 words\, specifying the thesis of the paper and its main arguments\, should be sent to \;sergiu_sava@yahoo.com \;with the subject heading &lsquo\;Internal Senses&rsquo\;. In advance\, they also should be prepared for blind review\, so please include your name and affiliation only in the body of the email.

\nKey dates: (1) submission deadline: 20th of February 2024\; (2) notification of acceptance: by the 29th of February 2024.

The fact of many kinds of evil and calamities has always been a problem for theists\, and they have tried to check whether there is a conflict between the reality of evil and their knowledge of God\, according to the attributes they know about God. Among the atheists\, this issue has been considered as evidence for the confirmation of atheism. Many thinkers in the contemporary era have dealt with this issue and have tried to answer this question and face this issue with the support of their intellectual foundations. The philosophy of religion\, on the one hand\, is responsible for investigating the philosophical validity of these questions. On the other hand\, it is committed to evaluating the answers to this question and various encounters with it. The twelfth annual conference on the contemporary philosophy of religion tries to show what unexpected confrontations can arise by looking at the problem of evil from new angles. What is the relationship between the different Western encounters on this issue and Islamic attitudes?
\nTopics include\, but are not restricted to the following:

Conversely\, atheists have often viewed this issue as supporting evidence for their stance. In modern times\, numerous thinkers have grappled with this dilemma\, seeking to provide answers grounded in their intellectual frameworks. The field of philosophy of religion is tasked with both exploring the philosophical implications of these questions and assessing the responses they elicit. The twelfth annual conference on the contemporary philosophy of religion (CPR2024) aims to shed light on new perspectives by exploring the problem of evil from novel angles\, highlighting unexpected encounters. It also seeks to examine the relationship between Western approaches to this issue and Islamic perspectives.
