Ancient Philosophy Events and COVID-19 (Updated)
As COVID-19 spreads more and more widely, restrictions on public gatherings and on travel, especially international travel, continue to grow. Daily Nous has a post on the way philosophy events such as department talks and visits have been affected. You can also check this crowd sourced Google doc of cancelled academic conferences. If you know of an ancient philosophy event that has been cancelled or postponed, please contact me and I will update the ancient philosophy events calendar appropriately.

New CFPs Calendar

For a full listing of all the lectures, conferences, symposia, etc. you can continue to use the Ancient Philosophy Calendar.
