Biennial Conference in Philosophy, Religion and Culture
Theme: THE EXPRESSIBLE AND THE INEXPRESSIBLE
The theme is to be interpreted broadly and from the disciplines of
philosophy, theology, social science, literature and the arts. Topics
that might be investigated include: ways of knowing in science, ethics,
aesthetics and religion; the unconscious and the subconscious; art and
expression; the ineffable in Christianity, Judaism, Islam, Hinduism and
Buddhism; mystery and mediation; the meaning of art; language and the
