Two weeks to get your proposals in for our online workshop on Pedagogy and Women in Philosophy in November! Please do take a look at our CFP and get in touch with any queries

Cultures of Philosophy Pedagogy Workshop, November 11th and 12th 2026 The Cultures of Philosophy team at the University of Exeter invites proposals for the online workshop Teaching Early Modern Women’s Writing Between Literature and Philosophy: Pedagogy and Practice. The aim of this workshop is to share case studies and best practice regarding the teaching of early modern women’s philosophical writing in HE, across languages, disciplines and national settings. We intend to bring together teachers and researchers in HE with members of subject organisations to reflect on what’s working and what could be changed to improve the visibility of, and engagement with, early modern women’s philosophical writing, broadly conceived. The workshop will take place online over one afternoon (Wed 11th Nov 2026) and one morning (Thurs 12th Nov 2026); we envisage short (10 minute) interventions to allow for plenty of discussion. We intend to produce a report to be published on our project website, summarising the workshop’s findings, and to use this as a landing page to bring together further resources. Invited speakers: Hannah Dawson (KCL); Sarah Hutton (York); Dino Jakušić (Warwick); Amanda Pipkin (UNC); Francesca Romana Recchia Luciani (University of Bari); Sandra Plastina (Università della Calabria/SWIP Italia); Hannah Straw (Warwick); Rachael Wiseman (British Society for the History of Philosophy). We invite contributors to reflect on their own practice (case studies; engagement activities undertaken etc.). Contributions might respond to the following prompts or questions: • Are there discipline specific conditions for teaching early modern women’s (philosophical) writing? E.g. how does teaching across philosophy, literary, and intellectual history departments compare? What can we learn from each other? • To take one perspective, how can we leverage the unique affordances of Modern Languages departments, as inherently interdisciplinary, to foster an inc…Bild

The @royalhistsoc.org Funded Book Workshops are now open for applications for 2026-27! I honestly cannot recommend these enough: the workshop it facilitated for my second book was among the most positive and affirming days of my career. If you're thinking about it, do it! #skystorians
