As it is, I just wish to focus on the essays and appreciate them for what they are. — Jack Cummins
I think those essays will produce some of the best discussions we've had for a long time, — Jamal
They cover a wide range of philosophical areas so you could just pretend lots of high quality OPs suddenly appeared at the same time. The idea that they might overwhelm the front page only applies if they're on the same topic (or if they're not philosophy, like the fiction competitions). — Jamal
A separate discussion thread will be posted 'Meet the Authors'. A list of authors will be provided for the 'guessing game'.
After the authors are revealed on June 16th the authors can:
1. Respond to the comments and feedback.
2. Join in the general discussion, compare and contrast other essays. Note: authors, as readers, can comment on specific essays before this
From the Guidance:
10) Members please carefully read the essays before offering thoughtful feedback. A more open-ended conversation will take place in the 'Meet the Authors' thread that will be created on June 15th.
— Moliere
I'm reserving my comments for after June, but will still follow through with my promise to give every submission a proper response. — Moliere
I don't even know if I'll finish in the month — Moliere
If any participants want to keep their essays off the internet, I can once again restrict them to members-only, which is the default for the Symposium. — Jamal
Get involved in philosophical discussions about knowledge, truth, language, consciousness, science, politics, religion, logic and mathematics, art, history, and lots more. No ads, no clutter, and very little agreement — just fascinating conversations.
