We are pleased to announce that the fifth annual meeting of the
Southwest Seminar in Early Modern Philosophy will be held 27 - 28 February
2010 at the University of New Mexico in Albuquerque, NM. Following the model of
similar seminars around the U.S. and Canada, the Southwest Seminar was formed
to foster interaction among scholars who work on various topics in the
history of early modern philosophy (a period ranging, roughly, from Montaigne
to Kant). |
