Parrhesia: a journal of critical philosophy

http://www.parrhesiajournal.org/

editors: Matthew Sharpe, Alex Murray, Jon Roffe

Michel Foucault's last works tell us that parrhesia is the act of
fearlessly speaking the truth.To engage in parrhesia is never, however,
a "neutral" act. Parrhesia simultaneously incorporates aesthetic and
ethical dimensions. The parrhesiast is someone whose fidelity to the
truth becomes the pivot of a process of self-transformation.

Parrhesia is a journal that aims to gather a range of thinkers to
examine the intersections between questions of subjectivity, politics,
ethics, aesthetics and truth, intersections which both theoretically and
practically form the critical points in our culture and in our time. As
Walter Benjamin suggests it is these "perilous critical moments" upon
which the very act of reading, writing and thinking must be based.

Parrhesia is affiliated with the Departments of English and Philosophy
at the University of Melbourne, and with the Melbourne School of
Continental Philosophy. The journal will be published twice a year in
June and November

At this stage the submissions are directly solicited by the editors,
however from September 2007 we will be taking more general submissions .
If you would like to propose a paper, please send a 250 word abstract to
one of the editors.


Regards, the editors
