Call for Papers "The Invention of Writing and the Rise of Civilization" and "Needham Revisited" Horizons: Seoul Journal of Humanities Vol. 1, No. 1 and 2, 2009 __________________________________________________ The Institute of Humanities at Seoul National University is launching a peer-reviewed international journal of humanities: "HORIZONS: Seoul Journal of Humanities". HORIZONS is a forum for interdisciplinary, intercultural studies of humanities. Our primary goal is to generate intellectual dialogues between the traditional boundaries of knowledge and culture; we also seek to redefine, transform, and conflate such boundaries. All serious papers on literature, history, and philosophy, as well as on arts, social sciences, and natural science, are welcome to us as long as they contribute to discursive diversity of humanities. In the dynamic space of discourses we envision, the past and the present cross at a vantage point and the East and the West converge and diverge to create an ever-widening circle of understanding and knowledge. Currently we are soliciting submissions for the first two issues. The special topic for each issue will be: "The Invention of Writing and the Rise of Civilization" (vol. 1, no. 1; June 2009) and "Needham Revisited" (vol. 1, no. 2; December 2009) We welcome papers on other topics as well. For questions on topics and deadlines, please email us at: <[email protected]> The manuscript (two hardcopies and an electronic copy) should be sent to the address indicated below.
