The aim of the conference is to revisit both Aristotle’s work in different areas of philosophy and science (200 treatises, of which 31 have survived) as well as its subsequent reception. We welcome papers discussing Aristotelian contributions to logic, metaphysics, ethics, politics, arts, poetics or science.
The conference will be structured in the following thematic panels:
- Metaphysics and Theology
- Logic and Philosophy of Science
- Ethics and Political Philosophy
- Aesthetics, Rhetoric, Poetics
- Aristotle and his reception
- Aristotle and Phenomenology
- Aristotle in Romanian Philosophy
