Ancient Philosophy Society

The 11th annual meeting of the Ancient Philosophy Society at Sundance, Utah was a great success.  Thanks to the generous hosting institution, Utah Valley University, and to Michael Shaw and the UVU Honors program, the Ancient Philosophy Society gathered together for a full and philosophically rich five days in Utah’s Wasatch mountain range.

The APS Facebook page as a number of links to blog posts, images and other resources related to the conference, but I thought I would gather a few resources here as well.  I invite others who have written about or posted artifacts surrounding our 11th annual conference to link to those resources here in the comments section.

• William Koch has been posting his notes about the #APS11 event on William Koch’s Philosophy Blog.
  • Ancient Philosophy Society 2011 Meeting, Part I
  • Ancient Philosophy Society 2001 Meeting, Part II
• Allen Hill has posted a large number of pictures of the conference on his Facebook page.
• I have posted a series of recordings of the panel on my book, Aristotle on the Nature of Truth:
  • Christopher Long’s Introduction to the book panel
  • Will McNeill’s response
  • Drew Hyland’s response
  • John Lysaker’s response
  • Christopher Long’s response and Question and Answers

I have also embedded a slideshow with some of the pictures posted to Flickr of the event:

For everyone waiting for the official 2011 APS program and information about the conference registration, we are finalizing the details of both this week. We had to wait for the Sundance Film Festival to end before we could finalize the cost of registration and the lodging information.
