| Arob@se (ISSN : 1278-379X) is an interdisciplinary electronic
journal published in French and English as the review journal of Groupe de Recherche en
Littératures & Sciences Humaines (GReLSH). Readership has recently measured 9,000
readers per month. Special Issue: Ipseity and Alterity will be published electronically in the Fall of 2000. A follow-up hard-copy volume will be published by an international publisher the following year. All papers will be in English. Ipseity and Alterity will address issues involving the analysis and representation of the self and the other in literature, philosophy, psychology, and the human sciences. Is it ever possible to understand the individual person without reference to other persons? Are ipseity and alterity necessarily co-defined? To what extent does personal identity depend on differences between persons? Is interpretation of the other person ever complete? How is the other constituted within imperfect communicative practices? To what degree do certain psychopathologies involve failures of intersubjectivity? To what extent does theory of mind depend upon language and narrative? We seek papers written from various perspectives and in various disciplines. Cognitive approaches, critical theory, developmental studies, feminist theory, literary analysis, phenomenology, philosophy of mind, psychology, semiotics, etc. Shaun
Gallagher is Professor of Philosophy and Cognitive Sciences at Canisius College, Buffalo,
New York. |
