The FME seminar in modern philosophy is an international meeting of scholars interested in various aspects of early modern thought. The aim of the seminar is to create an interesting environment for discussing papers and ideas. It includes workshops in the morning and presentations of papers in the afternoon, trying to maintain a balance between a high academic level and the informal spirit of an academia.

The seminar is opened to all subjects in early modern philosophy. We welcome applications from graduate students. Please send an abstract of 2 pages and a curriculum vitae to the organizers at dana.jalobeanu@bbc.co.uk and valexandrescu@gmail.com until May 31.
