Call for Papers
"Visions of Peace: The West and Asia"
Multidisciplinary Symposium
University of Otago
Dunedin (New Zealand)
10-12 December 2009
__________________________________________________
"Visions of Peace: The West and Asia" is a
multi-disciplinary symposium which explores various
traditional conceptions of peace in the Asian and the
Western historical worlds. Current literature, prompted by
September 11, focuses on the laws and ethics of just wars;
the ideas and ideals of peace as they were conceptualized by
past Asian and Western thinkers appear to have escaped
scholarly attention. The symposium is intended to fill this
lacuna, thereby shedding light on the hitherto overlooked or
underappreciated visions of peace in the global historical
landscape.
The event will be organized according to the following
cultural units and traditions: Islamic, Jewish, Indian,
Chinese, Japanese, and European. The symposium will approach
the diversity of the global traditions of the idea of peace
at the interface of religion, philosophy and political
thought from the viewpoint of intellectual history.
The main, but by no means exclusive, focus will be on the
"pre-modern" period (i.e. before c.1800). General
theoretical and historical questions to be addressed might
include: What did "peace" mean in a given tradition? Was it
primarily political? Was peace the end or a means for
something else? Is it achievable in this world? What are the
conditions of peace? What are the contexts in which peace
was valued? What is the relationship between war and peace?
How did each tradition understand the legitimacy of
violence?
Plenary speakers include:
John Kelsay (Florida State University), Torkel Brekke
(University of Oslo), Yu Kam-por (Hong Kong Polytechnic
University), Shin Chiba (International Christian University,
Tokyo), and Fred Dallmayr (University of Notre Dame, USA).
Proposals for papers should be submitted to Dr Takashi
SHOGIMEN (Department of History, University of Otago) at
<takashi.shogimen@otago.ac.nz> by 15 April 2009.
Papers on the idea of peace in any of the aforementioned
cultural units or on cross-cultural comparison are welcome.
The proposal should include the title of the paper, a
150-word abstract which specifies the cultural unit and
chronological period that the paper discusses, and the
contact details including the presenter's name, home
institution and email address. Submission of proposal does
not guarantee its acceptance. You will receive an email by
early May announcing whether or not your proposal has been
accepted. The delivery of the paper should not exceed 20
minutes, which will be followed by 10-minute discussion, and
the English language must be used. Due to the
cross-disciplinary nature of the event, accessibility of the
paper without compromising its scholarly quality is
essential.
A refereed volume of selected symposium papers will be
edited and published by a leading international publisher.

MUSIC AND MORALITY
Institute of Philosophy & Institute of Musical Research
16-17 June, 2009
Supported by the British Society of Aesthetics
FINAL CALL FOR PAPERS
Confirmed keynote speakers include: George Benjamin, John Deathridge,
Deirdre Gribbin, Jerrold Levinson, Susan McClary, Roger Scruton
Convenor: Guy Dammann, Institute of Musical Research
Music has commonly been considered the most elusive of artforms and yet
throughout history there have been frequent assertions of its strong links
with our moral sensibilities. While this situation may suggest shifting
views and expectations of art and music, it may also point to some deeper
questions about the nature of music and morality.
In the context of increased academic and practical interest in the
question of music's moral value and potential, we are seeking
contributions from academic and practical musicians, philosophers,
psychologists and historians of ideas, offering critical reflections on
questions or cases that touch on the theme of music and morality.
Interested contributors should send, in a first instance, a 300 word
abstract for a proposed paper of not more than 20 minutes reading time to
Valerie James, Institute of Musical Research, music@sas.ac.uk by the
deadline of 31 January 2009. Notice of acceptances of submissions will be
announced within one month of this deadline.
General questions of interest include but are not limited to the following:
Can music yield moral knowledge or understanding?
Must good music have a moral value?
Is there such a thing as immoral music?
Is the idea of morality in music compatible with aesthetic formalism?

ИНТЕРНЕТ
diesell
ru_historyДля тех, кто вдруг еще не в курсе.
Как вы все знаете, в рамках проекта Google Books в американских библиотеках постоянно оцифровывается немалое количество изданий на русском языке. Во избежание проблем с авторскими правами издания ХХ века под оцифровку не попадают.
Помимо того что поиск таких оцифрованных книг в Google Books затруднен из-за разнобоев в описаниях (то транслитом, то по-русски, и т.д.), скачать найденные полные тексты с российских ip-адресов невозможно.
В связи с этим хотел бы предложить вашему вниманию результат подвижнического труда нескольких неизвестных мне людей, которые коллективными усилиями выявили, скачали, перевыложили на rapidshare и сделали каталог более чем 3500 российских дореволюционных изданий по истории общим объемом более 65 Гбайт.

Каталог постоянно пополняется, при этом в нем представлены не только монографии, но и большое количество периодики.
