CFP: Midsummer Philosophy Workshop

Deadline: 15th April 2013

Conference: 23rd – 25th June 2013

Edinburgh

Description: We invite submissions for the first annual Midsummer Philosophy Workshop. This year the workshop will be hosted by Eidyn at the University of Edinburgh. The aim of the workshop is to discuss new work in analytic philosophy. We welcome submissions by anyone from anywhere, but we particularly encourage early career researchers to submit.  Essays on any topic are welcome but since the workshop will be attended by participants in a range of areas of specialization, papers that are broadly accessible and shorter papers (up to 8000 words, including footnotes) will have a better chance of getting accepted.  We also invite volunteers for comments and to serve as session chairs, and there are a limited number of spaces available for other people interested in attending.

Call for papers: To submit a paper, volunteer to comment or chair, or for information on registering, please email the 2013 Midsummer Philosophy Workshop Program Committee at midsummerphilosophy@gmail.com by April 15, 2013.
