CALL FOR PAPERS
The Film-Philosophy Conference 2017 at Lancaster University invites 
proposals for presentations on any subject related to film and 
philosophy. There is no single overall theme.
As with last year, we are using a “track” system that will provide a 
number of broad headings to which a presenter may wish to attach their 
submission. There is, of course, an Open track if you feel that your 
paper does not fit within any of the other tracks.

The tracks for 2017 are:
• Open Track
• Speculative Realism and Film
• Film and Ethics
• Philosophy of Video Essays / Essay Films
• Feminist Philosophy and Film
• Eco-philosophy and Film
• Temporality and Film
• Film and the other arts
• Cognitive film-philosophy
• Emotion/Affect and Film
• Cavell and film-philosophy
• Race and Film
• Philosophy and film genres

As with last year’s conference, we are *only accepting individual 
proposals for presentations of 20 minutes*. There will be no 
pre-constituted panel proposals. We hope that the track system will 
allow for papers to group organically around common themes and approaches.
We invite 300-word abstract proposals to be submitted by *6 February 2017.*
All abstracts will be considered by at least two members of the 
conference committee and decisions will be announced in March 2017.
