CFP: Special Issue of Crítica on Food, Art and Philosophy
Edited by Paloma Atencia-Linares (UNAM) and Aaron Meskin (Leeds)
Topics: aesthetics, cognitive science, philosophy of food, philosophy of mind, philosophy of perception
The philosophy of food is an emerging and distinctive area of philosophical enquiry, and much of the work in this area has been informed by philosophical aesthetics. In recent years, philosophers have found it especially productive to explore connections between aesthetics and the sciences and philosophy of the mind. This special issue ofCrítica aims to bring together these two developments to explore what can be learned about food by approaching it from philosophical perspectives that are richly informed by our best aesthetic theories and our best theories of the mind.
Submissions on anything related to the general topic are welcome, but papers addressing any of the following topics are especially welcome:
* art and food: cognitive connections
* cognitive penetration in food and art
* creativity in art, cooking, and eating
* the role of the imagination in art and eating
* art, food and representation
* multi-sensory experiences of food and art
Although authors may feel free to address ethical issues, we are unlikely to publish a paper which focuses solely on ethical issues relating to food.
Crítica is an international open-access journal of philosophy edited by the Institute of Philosophical Research (National Autonomous University of Mexico). This special issue will include essays by Professor Mohan Matthen (Toronto), Professor Ophelia Deroy (LMU) and Dr Eileen John (Warwick).
