Call for Latter-day Saint Philosophy Incubator Workshop

We invite submission of abstracts for a hybrid workshop on any aspect of philosophy that engages with the Latter-day Saint faith. Each accepted speaker will give a 15-minute presentation of their work in progress, followed by a 25-30 minute question-and-answer session. The goal of this workshop is to help develop early-stage ideas into publishable form. We expect that submitted abstracts are for projects in this early stage of development, and hope the workshop can serve the authors in their aim to bring their ideas to fruition.

Submissions are open to all, but those by early career researchers and those developing ideas in underexplored areas of Latter-day Saint philosophy are especially welcome. Submissions may be sent to ldsphilosophyproject@gmail.com. They should be no longer than 500 words, prepared for blind review, and accompanied by a title page including author information. Abstracts should be submitted by July 14th, 2021, 11:59 PM Eastern Time. Accepted speakers will be notified by August 1st, 2021.

The conference will be held on Sept 17-18, 2021 at Brigham Young University.  We will accommodate speakers whose abstracts have been selected but cannot attend in person by enabling zoom presentations. Those with questions may contact us at ldsphilosophyproject@gmail.com.
