Modern Philosophy Workshop

September 8, 2008 in Announcements by cntodd | No comments

lock2.jpgWe are excited to announce that the Early Modern Philosophy Workshop will expand in the 2008-2009 year to become the Modern Philosophy Workshop. With this shift in emphasis we hope to accommodate the broader interests of graduate students at the University of Chicago working on philosophers across the entire Modern period, roughly from Descartes through the post-Kantian idealists. All graduate students and faculty interested in the Modern period are welcome.

Our new faculty advisors are Robert Pippin and Anton Ford.

The workshop will continue to meet on Fridays at 10:30am in Stuart 209 unless otherwise posted.

Also, we are currently filling in our schedule of speakers for the 2008-2009 year. University of Chicago graduate students interested in presenting on Modern Philosophy please contact dsmyth@uchicago.edu.
