SIP is the Society for Italian Philosophy.

SIP was founded in 2016 and held its inaugural conference in 2017. Since then, it has been meeting regularly every year except for 2020 when the annual conference had to be rescheduled as a virtual meeting due to the covid-19 pandemic.

SIP’s aim is to provide a forum for the discussion of themes, authors, and movements having to do with italian philosophy as it is practiced both in italy and abroad.

SIP’s scope is wide in nature as it aims to support and foster conversations from a wide array of philosophical perspectives (including historical, metaphysical, methodological, phenomenological, hermeneutic, marxist, existentialist, structuralist, postmodernist, feminist, queer and gender theory, etc.) spanning across various centuries (from late medieval and early humanism to contemporary theory) and including figures and themes from a variety of philosophical areas (such as ontology, metaphysics, ethics, political theory, aesthetics, literary theory, history of philosophy, philosophy of rights,  philosophy of religion, philosophy of science, women’s and gender theory, philosophy of language, etc.).

SIP also welcomes interdisciplinary and crosscultural work of a philosophical nature addressing italian thinking.

SIP’s preferred language of conversation is english, but italian is of course acceptable (english translations will have to be provided).
