SOCRATIC STUDIES
A CONFERENCE IN MEMORY OF GREGORY VLASTOS
A conference on the theme 'Socratic Studies', in honour of
Gregory Vlastos, will be held at the University of California,
Berkeley on 1-3 May, 1992. During the weekend there will also be
a memorial service, further details of which will be available
later.
The conference is organized around some of the themes in
Gregory Vlastos's book, SOCRATES; IRONIST AND MORAL PHILOSOPHER,
and his other recent work. While it will focus centrally on
Socrates and Plato, some of the papers will also discuss broader
issues in moral and social philosophy.
A provisional list of speakers and topics:
(1) SOCRATIC METHOD. Mary Whitlock Blundell, 'Self-Censorship in
Plato's Republic'. Terence Irwin, 'Say what you believe'.
(2) VIRTUE AND HAPPINESS. Gerasimos Santas, 'Socratic goods and
Socratic happiness'. Julia Annas, 'Virtue as the use of other
goods'.
(3) POLITICAL THEORY. Richard Kraut, 'Vlastos on justice and
equality'. Robert Meister, 'Is moderation a virtue?'. Bernard
Williams, to be announced (on justice). Jonathan Lear, 'The
politics of narcissism'
(4) METAPHYSICS. Alan Code, 'Vlastos on "A Metaphysical
Paradox"'. Gail Fine, 'From forms to Forms?'
(5) LOVE AND SEXUALITY. Martha Nussbaum, 'Beatrice's "Dante":
loving the individual?' David Halperin, 'The queer politics of
Michel Foucault'.
Participants will also include David Furley, Stuart
Hampshire, Richard Wollheim, Julius Moravcsik, Aryeh Kosman,
Terry Penner, Jerome Neu, Alexander Mourelatos, Paul Woodruff,
Sandra Peterson, Amelie Rorty, Ronald de Sousa.
The conference is being supported by generous financial
contributions from the Department of Philosophy, Princeton
University, and the Department of Philosophy, University of
California, Berkeley.
