Kierkegaard and Asia Conference, Dec 2005
Kierkegaard Society of Japan, Kyoto, Japan
Supplied note: "'Kierkegaard & Asia' conference, the 1st International Conference of the Kierkegaard Society of Japan [est. May 2002 - ed.], will be held 2-5 December 2005 at Ormond College, University of Melbourne, [Australia - ed.]
The objective of the conference is to commemorate the 150th anniversary of Soren Aabye Kierkegaard's death through celebrating his work in philosophy and theology. As this will be the very first Kierkegaard conference held in the Pacific Rim, we are especially interested in how Kierkegaard has been received and interpreted in Asia.
We are seeking papers in two categories: 1. Kierkegaard: All original research on Soren Kierkegaard's philosophical and religious contributions will be acceptable. 2. Asian Studies: Original research dealing with any Asian philosophy or religion with respect to Kierkegaard's work will be acceptable.
The conference webpage, including a call for papers, can be found [at the URL below]
We would very much appreciate your participation! I realize that many of you are already aware of the conference - if you would like to join the mailing list, please contact me! - bd."
