Varieties of Ineffability Registration & Programme

Varieties of Ineffability in Ancient Philosophy

Online conference, 18th-21st September 2023

Call for Registration & Programme

This online conference will examine notions of philosophical ineffability in ancient Chinese, Graeco-Roman and Indian texts, dating up to the 9th century CE. By philosophical ineffability we mean the idea that the object of one’s philosophical inquiry, or some aspects of that inquiry itself, are wholly or to some extent beyond the reach of articulation through words.
