2019 International Conference: “Kyoto School, Tokyo School, and Beyond” Date: 12–13 October 2019 Venue: East-West Center, University of Hawai‘i at Mānoa Organizer: International Association for Japanese Philosophy (IAJP) Co-organizer: Department of Philosophy, University of Hawai‘i Theme Kyoto School, Tokyo School, and Beyond Languages English and Japanese Important Dates 1 April 2019: Submission deadline of abstracts for organized panels and individual papers 1 May 2019: Notification of acceptance by email 1 June 2019: Release of tentative program Synopsis This fourth annual international conference for IAJP aims at 1) further reinforcing Japanese philosophy as a global academic discipline; 2) exploring the potential of Japanese philosophy in the context of, and beyond, the Kyoto School or the Tokyo School; and 3) developing a solid network for researchers working on Japanese philosophy. Kyoto School and Tokyo School are representative philosophical schools in Japan, associated with Kyoto University and the University of Tokyo, respectively, but Japanese philosophy offers more than doctrines of particular schools. This conference welcomes proposals for critical and insightful presentations that challenge the study of Japanese philosophy through the re-reading and reconfiguring of related philosophical texts and issues, from East/West or even North/South perspectives. This conference specifically encourages young scholars along with seasoned veterans to submit their proposals. Topics may cover any period, figure, or context pertaining to Japanese philosophy and thought. Call for Papers

The Centre for Advanced Research in European Philosophy, King’s University College at Western University, announces a call for papers for an upcoming international conference: Why the Kyoto School Today? Date: March 21-24, 2019 Location: King’s University College at Western University, London, Ontario, Canada Plenary Speakers: • Dr. Bret Davis (Loyola University) • Dr. Rolf Elberfeld (Universität Hildesheim) • Dr. John Krummel (Hobart and William Smith Colleges) • Dr. John Maraldo (University of North Florida) • Dr. Brian Schroeder (Rochester Institute of Technology) • Dr. Mayuko Uehara (Kyoto University) • Dr. Jason Wirth (University Seattle) • Dr. Michiko Yusa (Western Washington University) The so-called Kyoto School of Japanese philosophy arose out of a critical confrontation (Auseinandersetzung) with the European philosophical tradition at the beginning of the 20th century. This encounter took place at a historically critical period: in both Japan and Europe a world was coming to an end and thinkers in both traditions were searching for new modes of thinking. Japanese thinkers for their part turned to a critical rethinking of modern philosophy and with it the modern world. They sought not to Westernize Japan but to imagine a new modern Japan and provide this new world with its intellectual foundations. Their appropriation of modern thought, however, involved a radical transformation and going beyond many of its inherent problems. At the same time, Western philosophy and with it the the modern world entered into a crisis from which it has arguably not yet recovered. As a result, we find ourselves at the beginning of the 21st century in an even more precarious situation than we did at the beginning of the last century. This conference inquires into the importance of the Kyoto School for our world today. To this end, we welcome abstracts for proposed papers that focus on the possible avenues of thought offered by the thinkers who belong to the Japanese tradition of the Kyoto School widely understood. Papers may focus on any thinker or thinkers in this tradition and on any aspect of their work. What is more, given the dialogical character of the Kyoto School itself, papers can continue this dialogical approach. In all cases, however, papers should be mining this tradition of thought and making the case for its contemporary importance. Abstracts of no more that 250 words should be sent to: Stephen Lofts (slofts@uwo.ca) by the new deadline of January 10, 2019. For further information or queries, please contact Stephen Lofts (slofts@uwo.ca) and/or Antonio Calcagno (acalcagn@uwo.ca) We would like to announce that Prof. Jacynthe Tremblay has been awarded the prestigious Canada-Japan Literary Award by the Canada Council for the Arts for her book Je suis un lieu (Press of Montreal University, 2016): https://canadacouncil.ca/funding/prizes/canada-japan-literary-awards?_ga=2.214198487.114411364.1542913194-1614992662.1538269846 The book deals with Nishida Kitarō and Tremblay’s personal encounter with Nishida’s thought. The book should be of interest to Japanese philosophy scholars and students. We would like to congratulate Dr. Tremblay for receiving the award. IAJP (International Association for Japanese Philosophy) panels to be held at the 2019 APA (American Philosophical Association) Eastern Division Meeting Jan 7-10, 2019 at the Sheraton New York Times Square, 811 7th Avenue & 53rd St., NYC, NY 10019, USA:

The Philosophy of the Kyoto School by Fujita Masakatsu is now available
https://www.springer.com/us/book/9789811089824
https://www.amazon.com/Philosophy-Kyoto-Scho…/…/ref=sr_1_15…
The book consists of excerpts of primary sources by Kyoto School philosophers plus commentary by different commentators.
The main purpose of this book is to offer to philosophers and students abroad who show a great interest in Japanese philosophy and the philosophy of the Kyoto school major texts of the leading philosophers. This interest has surely developed out of a desire to obtain from the thought of these philosophers, who stood within the interstice between East and West, a clue to reassessing the issues of philosophy from the ground up or to drawing new creative possibilities.The present condition seems to be, however, that the material made available to further realize this kind of intellectual dialogue is far too scarce. This book is intended to be of some help in this regard.The book presents selected texts of representative philosophers of the Kyoto school such as Nishida Kitaro, Tanabe Hajime, Miki Kiyoshi, Nishitani Keiji, and others who best illustrate the characteristics of this school, and works that together portray its image as a whole. Those who are interested in Japanese philosophy or specifically the philosophy of the Kyoto School can survey a comprehensive representation from this book.These texts are, of course, quite difficult and cannot be well understood without sufficient preliminary knowledge. Expository essays have therefore been included after each text to provide guidance. In each of these commentaries a scholar of our time with deep understanding of the philosopher in question has provided an account of his life, intellectual journey, and the significance of the text included here.From this book will emerge a new dialogue of ideas that in turn will engender new developments in philosophy, thereby further expanding the network of philosophical thought worldwide.

28-29 July 2017
National Taiwan Normal University, Taipei, Taiwan
Synopsis
This second annual international conference for IAJP aims at 1) further reinforcing Japanese philosophy as a global academic discipline; 2) exploring the potential of Japanese philosophy in its interface with the various philosophical traditions of East Asia, including, but not limited to, Confucianism, Buddhism and Daoism; and 3) developing a solid research network within East Asia for the field of Japanese philosophy in order to facilitate its promotion across the world.
Riding on the wave of the very successful first international meeting of IAJP in 2016, IAJP’s second international conference will continue the promotion and development of Japanese philosophy globally. Although the reception of and confrontation with Western philosophy remains on the agenda of the 2017 conference, the IAJP also seeks to explore the comparatively underdeveloped but indeed important connection between Japanese philosophy and the philosophical traditions of East Asia. The philosophical and cultural diversity that Taiwan embraces will definitely provide conference participants an opportunity for inspiring intellectual exchange involving the people of Taiwan and scholars of Japanese philosophy from East Asia as well as other parts of the world. This conference welcomes proposals for critical and insightful presentations that challenge the study of Japanese philosophy through a re-reading and reconfiguring of related philosophical texts and issues, from the perspectives of Western as well as Eastern philosophical traditions. This conference specifically encourages young scholars to submit their proposals. Topics may cover any period, figure, or context pertaining to Japanese philosophy and thought.

Watsuji Workshop at the Nanzan Institute
I would like to invite you to the Watsuji Workshop scheduled on June 25-26th 2016 at the Nanzan Institute for Religion and Culture in Nagoya Japan. We are hoping to organize an intimate meeting where we can exchange our thoughts on Watsuji and deepen our appreciation of his philosophy. Presentations on any aspect of his works are welcomed. You can choose to present your paper either in English or Japanese (or any other language upon request) or just come join us for philosophical conversations and free coffee.
Please confirm your attendance by February 29th 2016 and if you have any questions or concerns or requests with regard to this event or anything related to Japanese philosophy, please feel free to contact me.
If you are interested in giving a talk on Watsuji and spending some time with other scholars on the works of Watusji, I have no doubt that this would be a great opportunity. We are also anticipating the possibility of compiling the papers presented at the workshop into a book and publishing with the Frontiers of Japanese Philosophy or other comparative and Japanese philosophy series.
So, please send us the title of your presentation and 250 word abstract in English (or 500word in Japanese) along with the notification of your love of Watusji philosophy! If you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact me anytime.
Sincerely,
-Takeshi
