The North American Sartre Society (NASS) invites abstract submissions by the end of January 2019 for this year’s conference, to be held in conjunction with the second Diverse Lineages of Existentialism meeting in Washington D.C. in early June.
“The 25th meeting of the North American Sartre Society (NASS) will be held as part of the 2019 Diverse Lineages of Existentialism II (DLE II) meeting, taking place in Washington, D.C. June 3- 5, 2019 at George Washington University.
We invite panels and papers that “diversify our understanding of what existentialism has been and can be,” and encourage submissions related to the theme of “Diversity and Existentialism.” We encourage participants to reflect on motifs such as: the intertextual connections between Sartre and other existentialists such as Beauvoir, Fanon, and/or Merleau-Ponty; the diversity of existential philosophers today, whether racial, gender, ethnic, cultural, religious or other; and the diversity of approaches under the umbrella of existentialism, including philosophical, literary, sociological, historical, and creative perspectives. Presentations in all areas of Sartre Studies are encouraged.
Deadline: We invite abstracts of 300-500 words. Proposals for papers (reading time 20 minutes) or panels may be submitted in English, French or Spanish. Submission deadline is January 31st, 2019. To submit an abstract, click here“
