Book Series

Re-Reading the Canon

Nancy Tuana, General Editor

This series consists of edited collections of essays, some original and some previously published, offering feminist reinterpretations of the writings of major figures in the Western philosophical tradition. Devoted to the work of a single philosopher, each volume contains essays covering the full range of the philosopher’s thought and representing the diversity of approaches now being used by feminist critics. The editor of each volume provides an introduction and prepares an extensive bibliography in addition to selecting previously published essays and commissioning new contributions. All volumes are published simultaneously in clothbound and paperback editions.

SUNY Series in Continental Philosophy

Dennis Schmidt, Editor

The SUNY Press "Series in Continental Philosophy" publishes innovative scholarly work in the tradition of post-Kantian Continental thought.  Defining Continental philosophy not according to any geography, but as the tradition of philosophizing that takes seriously the force of history and language in thought, this series has published works representing a variety of concerns - from art to animal life, from poetry to history, from ancient Greek thought to deconstruction - and it has published works by major figures in this tradition - from Fichte and Schelling to Heidegger, Gadamer, and Derrida.

The Journal of Speculative Philosophy publishes systematic and interpretive essays about basic philosophical questions. Scholars examine the constructive interaction between Continental and American philosophy, as well as novel developments in the ideas and theories of past philosophers that have relevance for contemporary thinkers. The journal also features discussions of art, religion, and literature that are not strictly or narrowly philosophical. Book reviews are included in each issue.

Chiasmi International

Editors

Renaud Barbaras, Universite de Paris-Sorbonne
Mauro Carbone Universita degli Studi di Milano
Leonard Lawlor, The Pennsylvania State University, E-mail:lul19@psu.edu

Founded by Mauro Carbone in 1995, Chiasmi was devoted to the thought of French philosopher Maurice Merleau-Ponty. Three years later, Dr. Carbone contacted Renaud Barbaras in France and Leonard Lawlor in the United States to help transform the Italian journal into the international, tri-lingual publication it is today. Since 1999 Chiasmi International has striven to annually present not only the most recent research being done on Merleau-Ponty, but also the most recent philosophy inspired by his thought. This goal has also led the editors to publish essays on or inspired by philosophers who influenced or responded to Merleau-Ponty.
