Organizes its International Symposioum 15 - 17 April 2012
Titled
"The Problematic of the Body in the Arab/Islamic Discourse"
Theme:
Research on the body has been ignored for long time in Arabic literature, for neither the Arabic philosophical or historical research has given such a topic, with its importance, any attention. For this reason we try to present the importance of the body and its status between the Cultural and the Sacred in the Arab/Islamic thought.

"Art in Islamic Thought"
Topic:
Art is still a virgin topic in Islamic thought, its scientific, philosophical and critical horizons are not discovered on a wide scale yet, despite of its intimate relation to Islamic knowledge and its deep seated relation to it. Hence, it did not take a favorable position in the wider space of the Islamic knowledge system, as an integral part of the elements of Islamic thought, as well as an immanent formation of the Arab/Islamic heritage. (details in Arabic).
6. Philosophy Department Faraht Setif University - Algeria
Organizes 25-26 April 2012
International Symposioum
Philosophy and the Event "the Challenges of Reality and Prospects of the Future"
Topic:
It has become clear that contemporary human reality witnesses new crises that are unusual in the history of human culture. the central symptom of such crises is the increasing complication of the relations between contemporary human cultures and the resurgence of the self-centric cultures and inability of inter-cultural communication. Within such a context, the crisis of the Arabic philosophical project had obliged its philosophical thought to confront such a problematic and present answers to interact positively with such reality. Therefore, such philosophical thought is obliged to participate positively in contemporary human civilization making use of its capabilities that are based on its historical, human and intellectual heritage. (details in Arabic).
7. Institute for Philosophy of Religion, Munich School of Philosophy München Germany
Monday, August 6 2012 - Thursday, August 9 2012
Subject:
Discussions of mind, body, soul, and spirit have played a central role in the history of philosophy, and in the theologies of various religious traditions. God is the ultimate mind. In general, we wish to focus on two central problems in the philosophy of mind – the problem of consciousness and the problem of mental causation. Paper presenters are expected to apply insights from philosophy of mind to philosophical theology and philosophy of religion.
