CALL FOR PAPERS For the third issue of `Footprint` we are calling for papers that take account of current discussions in philosophy and architecture on phenomenology with respect to space, place, location. Papers which deal with the late work on `topology` in Heidegger, and the issue of perception and `inner spatiality` in the work of Merleau-Ponty are of immediate interest. We hope also to have papers which deal with Brentano`s work on space. A further topic of special interest is the critique, provided by Heidegger and Merleau-Ponty, of Descartes, and of functionalism in general. The re-reading of Aristotle by Heidegger with regard to public space, and the development of this in the work of Arendt is also of interest. Papers are welcome on the work of architects who have deployed insights from the philosophical area of research for their work. Examinations of the research of Casey, Malpas, Dreyfus and others including Ihde would be a welcome addition to the issue, either in the form of short notices or reviews. Articles will be peer reviewed, and the issue is expected to be available at the beginning of October. All papers and correspondence should be sent to the editors, Patrick Healy, Brendan O`Byrne, e-mail <[email protected]> or <[email protected]> and marked issue no. 3. Papers should be 6,000 - 8,000 words. Please see `Guidelines for Authors`, at http://www.footprintjournal.org/paper_submission Deadline for papers: 15 June 2008
