SUMMARY:Early Modern Women Writers' Colloquium
DESCRIPTION:​Organising Committee for Othello’s Island: Dr. Stella Achilleos (University of Cyprus\, Cyprus); Prof. James Fitzmaurice (Northern Arizona University);  Prof. Lisa Hopkins (Sheffield Hallam University\, UK); Dr Sarah James (University of Kent\, UK); Dr Michael Paraskos (Imperial College London\, UK) \nNow in its second year as a strand within the annual academic conference “Othello’s Island”\, the Early Modern Women Writers’ Colloquium has demonstrated the interest in developing a regular annual event dedicated to exploring the lives of women writers in the Renaissance and early modern periods. \nFor our second year in 2018\, we are following the successful format established in our first year\, by teaming up with the organisers of Othello’s Island\, a well-established conference on medieval\, renaissance and early modern studies\, held annually in Cyprus. Again we will be organising a semi-autonomous conference strand (“the Colloquium”) within the Othello’s Island conference\, focusing on the lives and work of women during the Renaissance and early modern periods. \nAs a whole\, Othello’s Island attracts around 100 delegates\, whose topics include archaeology\, art history\, history\, and literary studies\, to name but a few. The Early Modern Women Writers’ Colloquium runs alongside this at the Centre for Visual Arts and Research in Nicosia\, Cyprus\, allowing for interesting cross referencing to the work of speakers in the Othello’s Island Conference\, and shared resources and events. \nFor 2018 the convenors of the Early Modern Women Writers’ Colloquium will be Dr Stella Achilleos of the University of Cyprus\, and Professor James Fitzmaurice of Northern Arizona University. \nThe aim for 2018 is for the Early Modern Women Writers’ Colloquium to be open-minded\, allowing a diverse range of approaches and topics related to Renaissance and early modern women to be discussed. This might include the lives of women during the periods\, the work of specific women writers or other women artists\, or the role and activity of women in wider society and culture. In the case of women writers and artists\, this might also include consideration of their contemporary and posthumous reputations. \nThe Early Modern Women Writers’ Colloquium is fully intergrated into the wider Othello’s Island conference. This means delegates can mix-and-match attendance at talks in the strand with talks on other topics at the conference. \n​Those taking part are also welcome to join in with the social events for the wider conference\, including group meals and trips to some stunning medieval and renaissance sites. \n  \nCall for Papers \nIf you are interested in giving a talk at the conference on the early modern women strand please submit a proposal for a paper as early as possible. Standard papers are 20 minutes long\, followed by 5 or 10 minutes for questions. \nIf your paper does not fit in this area you should submit it instead to the main Othello’s Island conference (click here for the Othello’s Island Conference website). \n​ Proposals for papers for the early modern women strand should comprise a cover sheet showing:​ \n1. Your title (eg. Mr\, Ms\, Dr\, Prof. etc.) and full name \n2. Your institutional affiliation (if any) \n3. Your postal address\, e’mail address and telephone number \n4. The title of your proposed paper​ ​ \nAll papers must be delivered in English. Attendance of speakers is mandatory – we do not allow Skype or proxy presentations. \nThe deadline for submissions of proposals is 22 December 2017. \nEarly submission is strongly advised. We aim to have a decision on the acceptance of papers within four weeks of submission. \nIf you have any questions please contact Professor James Fitzmaurice at  j.fitzmaurice@sheffield.ac.uk

SUMMARY:Women in Philosophy: Past\, Present and Future
DESCRIPTION:True it is\, Spinning with the Fingers is more proper to our Sexe\, then studying or writing Poetry\, which is the Spinning with the braine: but I having no skill in the Art of the first (and if I had\, I had no hopes of gaining so much as to make me a Garment to keep me from the cold) made me delight in the latter – Margaret Cavendish \nThough academic philosophy is still a male-dominated discipline\, and the canon of philosophy is largely male\, the future of philosophy promises to be less so. After years of scholarly neglect\, the contribution of a large number of women philosophers across the ages is now being recognised – from medieval mystics to Enlightenment philosophers of science to founding mothers of analytic philosophy and phenomenology. At the same time\, broad consensus is afoot that certain disciplinary norms\, once-entrenched\, no longer serve our discipline and have contributed to the attrition of female talent from philosophy. \nThis SWIP-Ireland conference\, in collaboration with In Parenthesis\, invites papers on the broad topic of Women in Philosophy: Past\, Present and Future. The occasion of the workshop is the centenary of a paper published in Mind by the Irish philosopher and prominent librarian\, Agnes Cuming. The conference welcomes contributions relevant to the general theme of the role of women in philosophy. Papers from all approaches and traditions in philosophy including submissions on neglected historical figures\, reports of archival visits\, as well as reflection on methodological practice and on visions for philosophy in the future are encouraged. Papers from graduate students and philosophers working outside academia are also welcome. Presentations and panels related to any aspect of the ​work of the keynote speakers are also welcome. \n  \nKeynote speakers:             \nEileen Brennan (Dublin City University) \nNancy Cartwright (Durham University) \nSiobhan Chapman (University of Liverpool) \nKristin Gjesdal (Temple University) \nSally Haslanger (MIT) \nSigridur Thorgeirsdottir (University of Iceland) \n  \nCall for Abstracts (Deadline: March 1\, 2018) \nRegistration (Deadline: May 14\, 2018\, 9:00am IST)

SUMMARY:Horizons of Sexual Difference
DESCRIPTION:The Department of Philosophy\, with the support of the Faculty of Humanities at Brock University\, will host the 9th meeting of The Luce Irigaray Circle in a three-day interdisciplinary conference devoted to scholarship and creative work on\, or inspired by\, the thought of Luce Irigaray at the Marilyn I. Walker School of Fine and Performing Arts at the Brock downtown campus. \nLuce Irigaray’s thinking has far-reaching influence across a number of disciplines and practices including Philosophy\, the Natural Sciences\, Women’s Health\, Literature and Literary Criticism\, Women’s and Gender Studies\, Religious Studies\, Indigenous Studies\, Political Theory\, Classics\, Linguistics\, Architecture\, Performance Studies\, Music\, Sound Studies\, Feminist Legal theory\, Art and Aesthetic practices\, etc. The Circle seeks to generate new possibilities for thinking sexual difference by honouring and supporting interdisciplinarity and the multiple research trajectories\, methods and projects inspired by Irigaray’s thought. \nThis year’s conference draws its theme from the figure of the horizon mobilized in Irigaray’s work that encompasses social\, political\, ethical\, and cultural processes in relation to sexual difference; a figure that indicates new possibilities for meaning – meanings that are located\, historical and specific to the horizon of their appearance. In particular\, we seek to reconsider Irigaray’s call to bring into view the appearance of sexual difference as a question for our time\, as well as problematize the centrality of this claim. Does sexual difference open up other horizons of difference or occlude them? How can we conceive horizons of sexual difference? \nThe 9th meeting of the Luce Irigaray Circle will initiate conversations between this broader context of the figure of the horizon and sexual difference\, and invites papers\, panels\, presentations\, and performances that contribute to our understanding of the contemporary world by critically re-assessing and furthering the figure of the horizon and the concept of sexual difference. Please note all creative work and scholarship on or inspired by Irigaray’s thought will be considered. However\, the circle especially welcomes submissions that address the following topics for inclusion in a number of thematically organized panels: \n·       Decolonizing Sexual Difference \n·       Performativity and Sexual Difference \n·       Trans and Sexual Difference \n·       the Global South and Sexual Difference \n·       Sexual Difference across borders\, including Sexual Difference and War\, \nSexual Difference and  Migration \n·       Deploying the horizon against itself \nCall for Papers (deadline: March 1\, 2018) \n

SUMMARY:Intensive Seminar on Teaching New Narratives in Early Modern Philosophy
DESCRIPTION:In this intensive weeklong seminar\, we will work through a range of primary source materials by non-canonical authors\, both women and men\, to be included in a new teaching anthology (edited by Shapiro and Lascano) with an eye to interpreting texts\, identifying philosophical themes within those texts\, and devising creative ways to incorporate those texts into courses that can serve a range of purposes within the philosophical curriculum. \nA familiarity with the standard early modern canon will be presupposed. \nThe intensive seminar responds to at least two issues facing the teaching of early modern philosophy. First\, the familiar canon of seven philosophers (Descartes\, Leibniz\, Spinoza\, Locke\, Berkeley\, Hume\, Kant) has become a bit ossified. While the integration of the history of science has helped to revitalize and introduce some new figures into early modern philosophy\, it has not helped us address a second issue: the need to do a better job of incorporating women philosophers into the history of philosophy\, and in particular into the history of early modern philosophy. To address these issues\, and especially the second one\, it helps to attend to an array of lesser known\, yet still quite influential\, philosophers of the period\, both men and women. \nOver the past several years\, interest in European women philosophers of the early modern period has intensified rapidly. Yet while there is a lot of interest\, there are also many challenges.  For one\, it is often challenging to delve into texts with which one is unfamiliar without a body of philosophical secondary literature to serve as a guide. Equally\, women of the period often write in an array of genres\, further complicating the interpretive work. Furthermore\, even if one has found one’s way with these texts\, women philosophers often take familiar themes in unfamiliar directions\, and it can be a challenge to rethink the standard early modern philosophy course so as to include women thinkers as philosophers in their own right.  Looking in detail not only at women thinkers but also at a range of non-canonical men is helpful because the themes that often engaged women thinkers were of interest not only to other (male) non-canonical philosophers as well\, but also to the more familiar canonical figures. In addition\, it is worth noting that most of the philosophers of the period wrote in a variety of genres\, not just the women. \nDirectors: Lisa Shapiro\, Professor of Philosophy\, Simon Fraser University and Marcy Lascano\, Professor of Philosophy\, California State University at Long Beach. Marguerite Deslauriers\, Professor of Philosophy\, McGill University\, will provide additional instructional support. \nTheme: Early Modern European Philosophy: Addressing the Challenges of Revitalizing the Early Modern Canon and Incorporating Women Thinkers into the Narrative \n  \nApplication Deadline:  February 1\, 2018 \nApplications should include the following and be sent to new_narratives@sfu.ca \n\nCurrent CV\nContact information for two references\nLetter of application (preferably 2-3 pages\, and no longer than 4 pages) explaining your own background and research interests\, your interest in the seminar\, and your prior teaching experience and approaches to teaching early modern philosophy\n\nNotification Date:  March 1\, 2018.  We expect to be able to accept up to 16 applicants for this intensive seminar. \nAccept or Decline Offer by: March 8\, 2018 \nEligibility Criteria:  We invite applications from philosophers at various stages of their career from advanced ABD PhD candidates to mid-career faculty. We expect that the majority of selected participants will have prior experience teaching a course in early modern philosophy. Thus\, while not required\, such experience is desirable. \nStipend: Individuals selected to participate in this intensive seminar will receive shared housing (a private room in a townhouse\, with linens provided and a shared modestly equipped kitchen) at Simon Fraser University from 24-30 June\, as well as reimbursement for other expenses up to approximately CAD 1700\, consistent with SFU policy (to include economy class airfare\, transportation to/from airports and a per diem at the official rate). \nSupport for this intensive seminar is provided by the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada through a Partnership Development Grant\, as well as the Simon Fraser University Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences\, and the SFU Philosophy Department. \nContact Haley Brennan at new_narratives@sfu.ca with any questions.

SUMMARY:Master Class: Hannah Arendt Today. The Evil of Banality
DESCRIPTION:In this 2 day Master Class\, Prof. Elizabeth Minnich will discuss the philosophy of Hannah Arendt\, with special emphasis on Eichmann in Jerusalem: A Report on The Banality of Evil. This serves as the background for Minnich’s latest book\, The Evil of Banality: On The Life and Death Importance of Thinking (2017). This work presents elaborates the concept of “extensive evils” through the examples of as slavery\, human trafficking\, economic exploitation\, for-profit penitentiaries\, etc. Minnich considers explanations of the ‘how’ and ‘why’ of extensive evils by social psychologists and historians such as Stanley Milgram and Philip Zimbardo\, whose work on obedience to authority and peer pressure she challenges. \nDates and times: \nJuly 27\, 2018 – 10:00-13:00 and 14:00-17:00 \nJuly 28\, 2018 – 10:00-13:00 \nLocation: \nTechnologiepark 21 \n  \nElizabeth Minnich is Professor of Philosophy at Queens University of Charlotte (Charlotte\, North Carolina) and Distinguished Fellow at the Association of American Colleges & Universities. She received her PhD from the New School for Social Research in 1977. Her dissertation\, “Philosophy\, Democracy and Communication: A Study of John Dewey As Political Philosopher\,” was supervised by Hannah Arendt and Richard Bernstein. She was Hannah Arendt’s teaching assistant in 1969-70\, at the time when Arendt was defending her report on the trial of Adolf Eichmann (“The Engineer of the Nazi Final Solution”). This is where Arendt announced her controversial observation concerning the “the banality of evil.” In the years since then\, Minnich has continued reflecting on\, researching\, and writing about evil\, which culminates in her reversal of Arendt’s concept: the evil of banality. \nParticipants are encouraged to send questions to Prof. Minnich via email. \n  \nRelated Events: Libori Summer School 2018

SUMMARY:Du Châtelet between Leibniz and Kant: The Eberhard-Kant Controversy
DESCRIPTION:Lecturers: Hartmut Hecht\, Ruth Hagengruber\, Andrea Reichenberger and Dieter Suisky \nLocation: L1.202 \, Paderborn University \nAfter the study of space and time in “Du Châtelet Between Leibniz and Newton” we are now moving on to explore “Du Châtelet Between Leibniz and Kant.” \nThis course will focus on Du Châtelet and the Eberhard-Kant Controversy\, including the problems of space and time in Leibniz\, Kant and Du Châtelet. In the famous Kant-Eberhard controversy\, we learn that Eberhard traces Kant’s roots back to Leibnizian philosophy and its commentators\, including Du Châtelet\, who he identifies as a key interpreter of Leibniz. This judgement has many interesting implications. \nEberhard tries to prove that Kant’s ideas were not as “original” as he had claimed. If Kant’s ideas can be tied back to Leibniz-Wolffian philosophy\, is this also true for Du Châtelet? If this is an invalid claim for an adequate understanding of Kant\, is it consequently also inadequate for Du Châtelet? In what sense is Du Châtelet an intermediary between Leibniz and Kant? Can Kant’s claim that his philosophy differs from Leibniz concerning his interpretation of phenomena\, the knowledge of their origin and essence\, be detected in Du Châtelet’s philosophy as well? How close is Du Châtelet to the philosophy of Leibniz or the ideas of Wolff\, and how near is Kant to the ideas of Du Châtelet? \nTo approach this large field of investigation\, we will focus on the following topics: \n\nThe concept of space and time in Leibniz (which was held to be an “idealized” and “logical” concept by Kant).\nThe concept of space and time in Kant’s Critique of Pure Reason (A edition\, 1781)\nThe chapter on Space and Time in Du Châtelet’s Foundations of Physics.\nSelected passages from Eberhard on Du Châtelet\, Wolff and others.\n\nStudent Presentation Schedule \n\n\n\nMonday \n(Full)\nLaura Herrera Castillo – Leibniz’s “A New System of the Nature and the Communication of Substances” and “The Monadology” \nAreins Pelayo – Leibniz\, “Tentamen Anagogicum” \nKristyna Sara Zittova – “The Controversy between Leibniz and Clarke”\n\n\nTuesday\nElizabeth Goodnick – Ruth Hagengruber\, “Emilie du Châtelet Between Leibniz and Newton: The Transformation of Metaphysics” \nBabette Chabout-Combaz – Andrea Reichenberger\, “Die Rolle der Familie Keyserlingk und des Gottsched-Kreises für Kants Du Châtelet-Rezeption”\n\n\nWednesday\nTatiana Levina – Space and Time in Kant’s Critique of Pure Reason \nLisa Benossi – The Lambert-Kant Correspondence\n\n\nThursday\nWiebke Deimling – Henry Allison\, “The Kant-Eberhard Controversy” \nSuellen Dutra Pereira – Ursula Winter\, “Metaphysik der Natur und würkende Kräfte”\n\n\n\n  \nAll interested parties are welcome to apply!

SUMMARY:Self and Subjectivity in Edith Stein and Hedwig Conrad-Martius
DESCRIPTION:Lecturers: Ronny Miron\, Antonio Calcagno\, Rodney Parker \nLocation: L2.202\, Paderborn University \nDiscussions of the self and subjectivity are a commonplace in phenomenological writings. The elaboration of the I as the focal point of experience is central to phenomenological research. \nIn the Fourth Cartesian Meditation\, Husserl argues that the phenomenology of “self-constitution coincides with phenomenology as whole.” In this course\, we will reflect on the self and subjectivity through the writings of Edith Stein and Hedwig Conrad-Martius\, and critically assess their views on these themes. We will begin by discussing Husserl’s arguments for the unity of consciousness\, his distinction between the empirical and transcendental I\, and his threefold description of the ego as: (1) the identical pole of subjective processes\, (2) the substrate of habitualities\, and (3) monad. We will also consider the self as a bodily and spiritual being capable of constituting spiritual (social\, cultural\, historical) objects. \nIn the writings of Edith Stein\, the notion of the self emerges through the working together of the lived body\, psyche\, and spirit. However\, the self becomes more acutely aware of itself as a self in the experiences of emotion and value. In such experiences\, the depth of the I\, its motivations\, desires\, personality\, and the will come to the forefront of consciousness\, revealing the notion of the spiritual person. The manifestation of the spiritual aspect of human beings evinces the value of the self. Indeed\, the person\, understood as the highest form of subjectivity\, emerges most fully when the bodily\, psychic\, and spiritual dimensions of the human being work together. Furthermore\, the self and subjectivity\, understood as an objectivity\, show themselves in and through empathy\, the lived experience of community\, and gender. \nHedwig Conrad-Martius was critical of Husserl’s privileging of the self\, which she believed came at the expense of his philosophy’s ability to properly deal with the more fundament philosophical question: What is Being? In this course\, we will discuss Conrad-Martius’ response to Husserl’s turn toward the subject and the transcendental idealism that follows. In her work\, she stresses that a phenomenology of real Being and the phenomenology of the I are not mutually exclusive. We will therefore explore the essential role of the being of the I in her philosophy of Being\, but from a realist rather than an idealist perspective. For Conrad-Martius\, the philosophical understanding of the I is conditioned by having a philosophical view of Being. However\, the I also bears an ontological exclusivity that distinguishes it from the rest of the beings in the world. We will also consider the tension of subjectivity; of being a creature that is both equal to other beings in the world and at the same time ontologically distinct from them. \n  \nAll interested parties are welcome to apply!

SUMMARY:American Women Philosophers
DESCRIPTION:Lecturers: Mary Ellen Waithe and Dorothy Rogers \nLocation: L2.201\, Paderborn University \nThis course explores the ideas of two women in the early idealist philosophical movement in the United States: Marietta Kies (1853-1899) and Lucia Ames Mead (1856-1936). Kies developed a theory of altruism in public/political life and was a member of the Christian Socialist movement. Ames Mead developed a theory of pacifism and was a member of the peace movement. Kies remained in the academic world throughout her career. Ames Mead chose to become an activist\, working for the formation of the League of nations in the early twentieth century. Both women anticipated later feminist theories of care\, peace\, and action\, which will be discussed in this course. \n  \nAll interested parties are welcome to apply!

SUMMARY:Women in Communism
DESCRIPTION:Lecturers: Luka Borsic\, Ivana Skuhala Karasman \nLocation: L3.204\, Paderborn University \nSocialist Feminism professes that a complete emancipation of women is achieved through the abolition of economic and cultural sources of women’s oppression. This\, according to some\, represents the synthesis of the arguments of Marxist feminism about capitalism as a source of oppression of women and the arguments of radical feminism on the role of gender and patriarchy. Marxist Feminism starts from the assumption that the abolition of capitalism as a socio-economic system is the only way women can relieve oppression. According to Marxist feminism\, gender inequality is the product of the capitalist mode of production. \nThe result of such theoretical considerations for women was that the levels of employment and education increased in most communist states. In the 1950s\, ‘60s\, and ‘70s it was generally believed that communism was fairer and more advanced for women’s equality than capitalism. However\, in the 1980s\, alongside the political and economic collapse of communist states\, a question mark was put over alleged success of addressing the “woman question” in communism. \nWas the collapse of communism also a sign of the victory of the “second wave” feminism against socialist feminism? Or\, was socialist feminism a collateral victim of historically politico-economic change of paradigm? \nIn this course we are going to explore position of women in communism. We will consider this topic from three different perspectives: \n\nthe position of women in communism as a socio-philosophical theory;\nthe position of women in concrete communist states;\nthe position of women in post-communist milieu.\n\nAll interested parties are welcome to apply!
