Sponsored Monograph
The Publications
Committee of the
Society has both a publishing arrangement with The Catholic University
of America Press and funding available to subsidize the publication of
significant scholarly works in medieval or Renaissance philosophy. The
Committee especially seeks mature and distinctly philosophical treatments
of texts, figures, periods, or problems.
Although
we wish to encourage young scholars, we will not consider unrevised doctoral
dissertations. Since we are looking for philosophical monographs, we will
not at the present time consider text editions or translations of Latin
texts.
