The
International Association for Philosophy and Literature
is dedicated to the exchange
of ideas and scholarly research within the humanities. Founded to
provide a context for the interplay of Philosophy, Literary Theory,
and Cultural / Textual Studies, the Association brings together
scholars from the full range of disciplines concerned with philosophical,
historical, critical, and theoretical issues.
With its focus on interdisciplinary topics and concerns,
the IAPL, since its founding in the mid-1970s, has represented
and participated in many of the most vital and exciting developments
at the intersection of philosophy and literature. The association's
annual meetings provide a unique opportunity for dialogue and the
exchange of ideas, the articulation of contemporary themes and topics,
the exploration of various expressive arts, and the production of
new theoretical discourses.
