READING PHILOSOPHIES OF NATURE AND BEAUTY: close reading as method in the history of philosophy

24th Nov 2026 Workshop organised by Campbell Rider

10:00-17:00

University of Sydney, Quadrangle N494.

As historians of philosophy, we are directly acquainted with the method of 'close reading', but are rarely challenged to articulate what, exactly, this methodology entails, and how it can be better practiced.

This one-day event brings together senior scholars with early career researchers within the history of philosophy to discuss the role of close reading in our own work and its implications for our discipline.

ECRs and graduate students working on the following topics are encouraged to submit abstracts or register to participate:

philosophies of nature, environmental aesthetics and ethics

philosophy of art, beauty and aesthetics

underrepresented and non-canonical figures in the history of philosophy
