philosophy and literature

The Open Edition

Until now interdisciplinary research concerning philosophy and literature has focused mainly on aesthetics, philosophy of language and literary studies. The point is that these different research areas have rarely met, preferring to work separately the ones from the others on the same subject. The aim of this special issue is to bring finally together top researchers in all these fields trying to confront their results and their methods and, as far as philosophy is concerned, to take into consideration both the analytic and the continental tradition.
