The RIT Department of Philosophy invites papers that address any topic or thinker related to Plotinus and Neoplatonism in general. Of particular interest are papers addressing the influence of Neoplatonism on modern and contemporary thought as well as Neoplatonism’s influence on earlier thinkers or topics, the “practical” philosophy of Neoplatonism, and comparisons and contrasts with other traditions (such as Buddhism, Christianity, Islam, and Judaism).
Submission Deadline: August 1, 2016
Papers should be 3,500-4,000 words in length and prepared for anonymous review. Please submit full papers electronically as Word documents to: brian.schroeder@rit.edu or silvia.benso@rit.edu.
Accepted papers will be considered for publication in a volume to be published by RIT Press.
