SUMMARY:Changing the Nature of Art and Science - Intersections with Maria Sibylla Merian
DESCRIPTION:Maria Sibylla Merian (1647-1717) is one of the more intriguing figures of scientific\, artistic and commercial culture of the early modern period. Born in Frankfurt\, and later based in Nuremberg\, Wieuwerd and Amsterdam\, her scientific interest in entomology eventually led her to Surinam\, where\, as in Europe\, she studied the metamorphoses of insects in their natural habitat. She translated her minute observations into powerful artistic representations that still attract the attention of many scholars\, such as biologists\, art historians and science historians. Modern artists and novelists also find inspiration in her work and life. In commemoration of her death three hundred years ago the Maria Sibylla Merian Society in cooperation with the Artis Academy\, the University of Amsterdam and the Artis Library will organize an international conference in the Royal Tropical Institute and the Artis Zoo in Amsterdam on 7\, 8 and 9 June 2017. The aim of the conference is to bring together new research and projects relating to Maria Sibylla Merian. With her life and work as a focal point\, this conference will also discuss topics that relate to Merian from a broader perspective.

SUMMARY:Applications & Implications - Ethics and Metaphysics in Edith Stein's Philosophy
DESCRIPTION:The Fourth Bi-Annual International Conference: Applications & Implications – Ethics and Metaphysics in Edith Stein’s Philosophy will be presented by the International Association for the Study of the Philosophy of Edith Stein\, in collaboration with the University of Portland (USA)\, and the McNerney-Hanson Endowed Chair in Ethics. \nSpeakers: Sarah Borden Sharkey (Wheaton College)\, Michael F. Andrews (University of Portland)\, Christof Betschart (University of Fribourg\, Switzerland) and Suzanne M. Batzdorff \nEdith Stein (1891–1942) never wrote a formal work of ethics\, yet her philosophical corpus\, especially her metaphysics\, contains a plethora of ethical resources and ideas that can be mined to address various questions\, themes or positions in contemporary ethics and metaphysics\, including the relationship between the good and being\, evil\, limits\, judgement\, responsibility\, personal identity\, collective versus individual action and responsibility\, moral guilt\, and intention. Given the richness of Stein’s ideas\, can her ethical insights be brought to bear on contemporary issues and ethical dilemmas? How would Stein respond to various ethical problems raised by dominant ethical schools\, including utilitarianism\, deontology\, virtue ethics\, pragmatism\,and existentialism? Are there possible practical applications of Stein’s metaphysicsand ethics to contemporary society? The International Association for the Study of the Philosophy of Edith Stein (IASPES) in collaboration with the University of Portlandand and the McNerney-Hanson Chair in Ethics invites abstracts (250 words maximum) dealing with the aforementioned theme. We also invite abstracts on any aspect of Stein’s philosophy.
