Seminar Description:
The main goal of the seminar will be to provide participants with the opportunity to learn and engage with philosophy of religion as it has been developed in recent years in English-speaking countries. The school will last three weeks and will be taught by a rotating faculty team, as described below.
Of the twenty participants from Russia, Ukraine, or Belarus, we will try to include both faculty and graduate students - aiming for a rough goal of fourteen faculty members and six graduate students. In addition to the twenty participants from Russia, Ukraine, or Belarus, we will also invite five participants who are philosophy professors in the United States. A secondary goal of the seminar is to promote engagement and dialogue between scholars in Russia, Ukraine, and Belarus and scholars in the United States.
The language of the seminar will be English.
Our speakers will be philosophers working in the area of philosophy of religion. On a given day, the speaker will lecture and lead discussion for approximately three hours. Faculty participants from Russia, Ukraine, and Belarus will be invited to choose one of the topics being covered, and give a short presentation on that topic - reacting to the speaker’s views and presenting their own views and thoughts on the subject. The last session of the day will be reserved for these short presentations and the ensuing discussion. Accordingly, our typical daily schedule will be roughly as follows:
In order to promote research in philosophy of religion and philosophical theology, we will ask our participants to conduct a research project related to the philosophy of religion or philosophical theology. Preferably, participants will pick their topic before the seminar, but they may also pick it during the seminar if they wish. The project will normally take the form of a publishable article, preferably one written in the language of the participant’s region or academic community.
Our participants from Russia, Ukraine, and Belarus will be invited to present their papers at a follow-up conference in Moscow in 2012, to be conducted in the Russian language. Professors Ken Kemp and Richard Swinburne (who both speak some Russian) will attend this conference as representatives of the Society of Christian Philosophers.
Such research projects take time and energy, so we will offer grants of $2500 (US dollars) to participants who develop research projects and present them at this conference. We will also provide an additional grant of $500 (US) to those who have their article published in a peer-reviewed journal.
Application Deadline: October 15th, 2010
Application is open to professional academics in philosophy and theology in Russia, Ukraine, and Belarus. This includes faculty, researchers, and graduate students in philosophy and theology programs, at state institutions, religious institutions, and private institutions in Russia, Ukraine, or Belarus.
