****CALL FOR PAPERS****
HUME AND 18TH-CENTURY AMERICA
Co-directors Dorothy Coleman (College of William and Mary) and Wade
Robison (Rochester Institute of Technology) are pleased to announce a
call for papers for an interdisciplinary conference on the theme of
"Hume and 18th-Century America" to take place at the College of
William and Mary, Williamsburg, Virginia, April 6-8, 1995. Papers on
any aspect of Hume's connection with 18th-Century American thought
are welcome.
Among the several organizations supporting this conference are the
Eighteenth-Century Scottish Studies Society, the Hume Society, the
Commonwealth Center for the Study of American Culture, and the
Institute for Early American History and Culture.
Papers should be no more than forty minutes reading length with self-
references deleted for blind reviewing; the author's name should
appear only on a front cover sheet. Submissions should be accompanied
by a brief abstract. Proposals will also be considered if accompanied
by a vitae, although the program committee will give preferential
consideration to blindly-reviewed, completed papers.
Please send all inquiries and triplicate copies of submissions to:
Professor Dorothy Coleman, Department of Philosophy, College of
William and Mary, Williamsburg, VA 23187, e-mail <dpcole@mail.wm.edu>.
Submissions must be postmarked by November 1, 1994. Early
