Zoom Conference on November 19th 2022 - Call for Papers

The British Personalist Forum are delighted to announce a zoom conference on the 19th November 2022. Topics can include anything related to Personalism.  We especially welcome any 'work in progress' by post-graduates. Authors are invited to submit papers to our secretary by email secretary.britishpersonlist@gmail.com by Saturday October 15th for them to be assessed and programmed by November 5th. A full program and papers will then be sent to all those attending to give time to read the papers and prepare for the discussion on Nov. 19th. Further details, including how to reserve a place at the conference, will be posted here.

The Latest Appraisal Issue, Vol. 12, No.s 3 and 4, Spring and Autumn, 2021 is now available to read

The latest issue of Appraisal is now available on the website. There are two full papers from our Zoom conference in June 2021, by Giorgio Baruchello and Ársæll Már Arnarsson on humour, with two responses to it, and Henrieta Serban’s article on Emile Cioran, who cheerfully wrote books, first in Romanian and then in award-winning French, on despair. Then comes Richard Allen's Discussion item on the idea that the ‘problem’ of modern philosophy is that philosophers think that philosophy has ‘problems’, followed by a book review, also by Richard Allen, of David Walsh's important book, ‘The Priority of the Person’, It should be a good read! Any comments or feedback would be most welcome. View the current issue by navigating to Appraisal using the menu at the top of this page or click here.
