New Questions on the Old Master 2011

Posted on 13. Sep, 2011 by RostislavFellner in Conference Notice, Dao De Jing, LAOZI

Our second international symposium "New Questions on the Old Master" will take place in St. John under the Rock (near Prague) in December
28-30, 2011.

The symposium will be dealing with archaeological-historical, philosophical, and religious context of the Laozi text on the one hand, and with the
textual analysis and hermeneutics of chapters 4-9 and the possibilities of its alternative translation on the other.

We welcome submission of abstracts and papers in the four aforementioned areas. The symposium will be held in English and Czech.

Please, send the preliminary registration to kavyl@svatojanskakolej.cz or by mail to Svatý Jan pod Skalou 2, 266 01 p. Beroun.

We are looking forward to see you in the romantic surroundings of St. John under the Rock in December 2011.
