question re. submission guidelines
i have a paper i'm about ready to submit to Philosophy Today, and i just had a quick question about their guidelines for those of you who have worked with them. in the actual journal credit-page submission guidelines, they say just to include 2 manuscript copies in blind review format, but when i looked them up online, they said to include a floppy or CD with that. is that necessary as well (i.e. have y'all done that), or can i just send them the hard copies?
Seth...
...has now completed a full draft of his dissertation. and no, nobody (neither busch nor the other committee members) has seen a single page out of the 260 up to this point. so if anyone would like to pray for the boy, or send him best wishes, or whatever, now might be an appropriate time. although this is a very seth-like thing to do, i didn't really think he would actually do it. but he called me a couple nights ago to say he has, so there you are...
Eastern APA
This morning I got the information for the panel that I am going to be presenting on at The Eastern APA. Here it is:
III-H. Colloquium: History and Metaphysics
Thursday, 12.29.05, 1:30-4:30 p.m., Murray Hill
Suite A (Second Floor)
Chair: Yitzhak Melamed (University of Chicago)
3:30-4:30 p.m.
Speaker: Joseph Berendzen (Loyola University of New Orleans)
“Horkeimer’s Materialist Stance”
Commentator: Max Pensky (Binghamton University-State University of New York)
The other two papers on the panel are on Locke and Kant, so it is sort of an odd panel. My paper basically discusses the metaphysical and anti-metaphysical aspects of Horkheimer's discussion of materialism, and then sides with the latter by interpreting Horkheimer through the lens of Bas van Fraassen's discussion of a "stance".
