ENOJP2024

 

European Network of Japanese Philosophy 8th Annual Conference
"The Past in the Present"

6-8 September 2024
Tallinn University, Tallinn, Estonia

Call for Papers

Applicants are encouraged to send proposals for individual presentations or group proposals (ideally 3 persons together) to collaborate on a panel. Papers related to the conference’s central topic are particularly welcome, but papers on other aspects related to Japanese thought will also be considered. We encourage participants to approach the general topic in a creative way, keeping in mind that giving a presentation on a topic they are interested in is more important than adjusting the topic of the paper to the general theme. The conference is free of charge for all participants.

• Deadline of submission: Feb 24th, 2024
• Notification of Peer Review: April, 2024
• Length of abstract: 250-500 words (日本語: 400–700字)
• Keywords: Please include 5–10 with your abstract
• Languages of the Conference: English and Japanese
• Please send in your abstract submissions to: enojp2024@tlu.ee

The First PhD Workshop of the European Network of Japanese Philosophy

The European Network of Japanese Philosophy (ENOJP) invites PhD students engaged in research in Japanese philosophy to apply for the first PhD workshop, to be held in Tallinn the day(s) before the ENOJP conference. This first edition of the workshop will be a pilot one, but – depending on its outcomes – we are planning to organize it every year in the future. The duration of the workshop is still open at this point (one, or two days), as it will depend on the number of participants.

Any student of any nationality working in any university on a topic related to Japanese philosophy and intellectual history is eligible. Please note that the workshop will be conducted in English. Participating in the workshop, and then presenting a paper during the conference is also accepted.

The aim of the workshop is to create a cross-national network of advanced graduate students and scholars in Japanese philosophy. The workshop will be organized in an informal setting, with ample time for discussion, socializing, and networking. The scholars providing guidance and advice during the workshop will be decided once the application process is over. The workshop is free of charge for all participants.

Tallinn University is located in the heart of Tallinn, situated between the historically rich Kadriorg district and the charming Tallinn Old Town. As such, the university campus is surrounded by picturesque locations that are a wonder to explore! If you're looking for ideas on what to do, we recommend taking a long, relaxing walk in the Kadriorg Park or along the Reidi tee promenade to experience the dazzling Baltic sea.

Tallinn University is located on Narva road and the university campus consists of 6 buildings that are all connected through a series of glass corridors, galleries, and walkways. The university buildings represent a unique academic blend of modern and historic elements, offering a distinctive atmosphere for all those who visit us. Thanks to its convenient location, the university campus is accessible by car, bicycle, electric scooter, public transport, or even on foot. What's more, Tallinn University is the only Estonian university that is accessible via tram, which is the greenest public transportation option. For more information on where to park your car or your bike, please visit the university website here.

Tallinn University campus is fully accessible for people with disabilities and those with challenged mobility. Read more about that under "Venue".

On behalf of the organizing committee, we warmly welcome you to the conference in Tallinn and hope you will create memorable moments!
