Women in Early Modern Philosophy

Lehigh University 5th Annual Philosophy Conference
Bethlehem PA 18015
U S A

Thursday, October 19, 2017 – Friday, October 20, 2017

The Lehigh University Philosophy Department welcomes abstracts concerning any aspect of the philosophical work of — or about — women during the Early Modern Period. We are looking forward to proposals related to any field of philosophy — from metaphysics and epistemology to ethics, aesthetics, political theory, and philosophy of religion. We are interested both in proposals that are primarily historical and in those that emphasize the contemporary relevance of texts from this period.

Keynote Speakers:

Karen Detlefsen
University of Pennsylvania

Marcy Lascano
California State University, Long Beach

Submission Deadline
July 17, 2017

Electronic submissions of abstracts (350 words) should be in Word or pdf format. Reading time for presented papers is 30 minutes; there will be 10 minutes for discussion.
