CALL FOR PAPERS: THE PHILOSOPHY OF MUSIC


THE JOURNAL OF AESTHETICS AND ART CRITICISM



THE JOURNAL OF AESTHETICS AND ART CRITICISM announces a call for
papers for a special issue of the Journal on "The Philosophy of
Music."

The topic is construed very broadly to include not only questions
about the ontology of music and representation, expression and
other varieties of meaning in music, but also philosophical
reflections on the standard delineations of music disciplines and
approaches to music (musical aesthetics, music history,
musicology, ethnomusicology, music analysis, etc.), and on the
social and political aspects of musical production and
appreciation (performing, listening, analyzing, criticizing,
etc.). Papers on facets of musical practice which have received
less philosophical attention (conducting, improvisation,
engineering, etc.) are welcome, as are papers on the
philosophical understanding of other aspects of music. Papers
may be retrospective or interpretive of current developments.

Send manuscripts and inquiries to the Editor of the special
issue:

Philip Alperson
Department of Philosophy
University of Louisville
Louisville, Kentucky 40292 U.S.A.

Inquiries may also be sent by electronic mail to:

PAALPE01@ULKYVM.BITNET.

Articles will be refereed anonymously.

The deadline for submissions is 1 September 1992.
