Just days after I blogged about the meaning of life, the Philosophy updates bulletin reports that philosophers Scott Campbell and Paul Bruno are:
"creating an edited volume on the philosophy of life and are seeking original, unpublished articles, of approximately 5,000-7,500 words, addressing the following question: What new approaches are being made to the study of life-philosophy?"
Echoing my post, the bulletin observes;
"Too often, life-philosophy is taken to be a mode of self-help or motivation and not a genuine philosophical movement. Although it is not recognized as such, serious and provocative work is being done on life-philosophy in phenomenology, existentialism, ancient philosophy (spiritual exercises), the philosophy of biology, deconstruction, American philosophy, and elsewhere."
It sounds great, and I'll look forward to its publication.
