徵稿公告(已截止)

古代哲學會(Ancient Philosophy Society, 2001 年創立於美國)，與國際柏拉圖學會(International Plato Society) 的亞澳非地區，初次嘗試友誼的合作，將於2024 年6 月13-14 日聯合舉行學術研討會。現正徵稿中！

為了讓亞太學者與西方學者能跨越距離、時間、旅費等障礙，會議採線上方式進行。篩選摘要時將盡可能有至少一半的發表人來自亞太。

象徵本次友誼合作的意涵，我們選定討論友誼的柏拉圖對話錄 Lysis 為主題，這是一篇很短、但含有豐富希臘文化、政治與社會議題的有趣作品，不僅展現蘇格拉底超強的質問與論證能力，對於熟悉柏拉圖Republic、Symposium、Phaedrus 的讀者更會發現不少具有柏拉圖哲學意義的發言，幾位男孩角色之間耐人尋味的關係也增添了這篇對話錄的趣味。

摘要徵稿至2024年1月底。

詳見下面的徵稿公告：

We are pleased to solicit abstracts for a conference jointly sponsored by the Ancient Philosophy Society and the International Plato Society, to be held remotely from June 13-14, 2024. The purpose of this meeting is to foster dialogue between scholars in Asia-Oceania and their colleagues across the globe (Europe, Africa, and The Americas), so submissions from diverse cultural and geographical regions are strongly encouraged.

In keeping with the aim of the conference, which is to cultivate intellectual and scholarly friendships across cultures, we invite submissions on Plato’s Lysis. All submissions must be received by January 31, 2024.

Authors from Asia and Oceania:

Please submit abstracts to: ipsapsjoint.asiaoceania@gmail.com

Please submit questions to: ipsapsjoint.asiaoceania@gmail.com

The name, institution, and references pertaining to the identity of the author must be omitted from the abstract, notes, bibliography, and document properties to facilitate anonymous review.

Submission Guidelines:

Abstracts must be written in English. Only one submission per author will be considered. Submission implies that the abstract and resulting paper are entirely the author’s own unpublished work and that, where appropriate, the contributions of others are acknowledged. Abstracts must not exceed 300 words; and full-length papers for those who are accepted should be between 1,500-3,000 words (max. 20 mins reading time), exclusive of footnotes and bibliography. Longer abstracts and complete papers will not be forwarded to the Program Committee. In keeping with the goal of the APS to support a variety of interpretive methods, authors are encouraged to include in their abstracts a brief reflection on their approach to reading and thinking about Plato.

The Ancient Philosophy Society was established (2001, Villanova University) to provide a forum for diverse scholarship on ancient Greek and Roman texts. Honoring the richness of the American and European philosophical traditions, the APS supports phenomenological, postmodern, Anglo-American, Straussian, Tübingen School, hermeneutic, psychoanalytic, queer, and feminist interpretations of Ancient Greek and Roman philosophical and literary works.
