Gemma ArgC<ello posted in American Society for Aesthetics Gemma ArgC<ello7:16pm Mar 173rd Dubrovnik Conference on the Philosophy of Art, April 2014 The Inter-University Centre in Dubrovnik, Croatia hosts a large number of conferences in a wide variety of disciplines each year, bringing together scholars from Europe, North America, and further afield. In April 2014, we shall be holding the third Dubrovnik Conference on the Philosophy of Art. The dates for the 2014 meetings are 21st to 25th April, and the conference directors are David Davies (McGill), Jason Gaiger (Ruskin College, Oxford), Bozidar Kante (Maribor), and Matthew Kieran (Leeds), We welcome proposals for presentations ranging across the full range of issues in the philosophy of art and aesthetics. On the middle day of the conference (23rd April), there will be special presentations on a selected theme with invited participants. The conference runs along similar lines to the Dubrovnik Philosophy of Science Conference held earlier in April each year. This means that we shall not be asking those wishing to attend for copies of their papers in advance, but we do ask for a title and a brief abstract by March 20th. Webll notify all those who provide abstracts as to whether their proposals have been accepted within a couple of days of that deadline at the latest, and earlier where possible. Webll then circulate a draft of the programme to participants prior to the opening session, making adjustments if necessary to accommodate the schedules of those arriving late or departing early. There will be six hour-long sessions each day, with a lengthy lunch break (3 hours) to allow participants to continue their discussions at a restaurant or other place of hostelry in the Old Town, or to explore the city. Presentations in regular sessions should be no longer than 40 minutes. Graduate students and those wishing to present shorter papers can give 20 minute presentations, with two such events taking up a single one-hour slot in the programme. We are unfortunately not able to pay any expenses for participants, but hope this will not prove too much of a discouragement. Participants should be able to obtain very reasonable accommodation at hotels frequented by other participants at IUC conferences b details can be provided to those interested. There will also be a small conference fee in order to cover our obligations to the IUC for the use of the conference centre. If you are interested in participating in the conference, please send a title and a brief abstract to David Davies atB [email protected] by March 20th 2014 at the latest. For further information, or if you are interested in attending, but not presenting at, the conference, please also contact David Davies at the same e-adress View Post on FacebookB B7B Edit Email SettingsB B7 Reply to this email to add a comment._______________________________________________ news mailing list [email protected] http://lists.aesthetics-online.org/listinfo.cgi/news-aesthetics-online.org
