The North American Society for Philosophical Hermeneutics (NASPH) will hold its 7th Annual Conference, October 5-6, 2012 at the University of California, Riverside.
Theme: Hermeneutics and Application
Invited Speakers: Lorenzo Simpson (Keynote), Georgia Warnke, Kathleen Wright
CALL FOR PAPERS: Submissions for papers are invited on all themes related to philosophical hermeneutics, but we are especially interested in papers that address (and/or enact) the theme of Hermeneutics and Application. In order to promote a spirit of dialogue and meaningful reflection on each paper, presenters will be asked to make their papers available for posting on our web site to be read in advance. Sessions will consist of 25-30 minute presentations of papers, followed by 45 minutes of discussion. Though there will only be time to read 25-30 minute versions of papers in sessions, there is some flexibility regarding the length of submissions: submissions may be between 3,000 and 6,000 words. Complete papers in English, formatted for blind review, must be submitted electronically to nasphermeneutics@gmail.com. Attachments in either *.doc, *.rtf, or *.pdf format are preferable. The deadline for full-paper submissions is June 1, 2012. Notifications of acceptance will be sent by July 1, 2012. For more information about the society and/or to be put on an e-mail list, please visit our blog at http://www.nasph.org/ or contact David Vessey (davevessey@yahoo.com) or Monica Vilhauer (vilhauer@roanoke.edu).
