[Commlist] CFA: In Celebration of Peter Lamarque

*CALL FOR ABSTRACTS (and Save the Date)*

*In Celebration of Peter Lamarque*

*A British Society of Aesthetics - University of York Conference*

*5-6 July 2023*

On 5-6 July 2023 we will celebrate with Professor Peter Lamarque the 
occasion of his retirement from the University of York and will continue 
with him the philosophical conversation he has sustained over several 
decades.  Peter’s work has shaped debates on a wide range of questions, 
including artistic ontology, the nature of fiction, artistic value, 
interpretation, criticism, poetry and thought, and architectural 
conservation. He has published a stream of influential papers, 
monographs, and edited volumes. /Truth, Fiction and Literature/, 
co-authored with Stein Haugom Olsen, is the most substantial work in 
philosophy of literature of the past several decades. He was awarded the 
2018 "Premio Internazionale d'Estetica" from the Italian Society of 
Aesthetics, and his book /Work and Object: Explorations in the 
Metaphysics of Art/ (2011) won the Outstanding Monograph Prize from the 
American Society for Aesthetics. He edited the /British Journal of 
Aesthetics/ between 1995 and 2008.

We invite submission of abstracts from early-career researchers, for 
20-minute talks that draw on and respond to any aspect of Peter’s work; 
we understand he welcomes highly critical contributions! We especially 
encourage scholars in groups under-represented in philosophy to submit 
abstracts. Please send abstracts (of around 800 words), including 
information on your ECR status, to Conference Assistant Britt Harrison 
((britt.harrison /at/ york.ac.uk) <mailto:(britt.harrison /at/ york.ac.uk)>), by 31^st 
  January 2023. Decisions on submitted papers will be made by 
mid-March. One night’s accommodation will be provided to each accepted 
speaker, and all will be strongly encouraged to apply for BSA travel 
funds. Some childcare funding is available. Further information about 
the conference may be obtained from Britt.

Invited speakers are Emily Caddick Bourne, Filippo Contesi, David 
Davies, Julian Dodd, Eileen John, Derek Matravers, Elisabeth 
Schellekens, and Iris Vidmar Jovanović.

The conference will be held at King's Manor, a beautiful Grade 1 listed 
building in the heart of York.

Conference Organisers: Gregory Currie and Eileen John. Please contact 
Britt Harrison for any further information.
