The Ancient Philosophy Society for the Study of Ancient Greek and Roman Thought was established to provide a forum for scholarship on ancient Greek and Roman texts and their diverse receptions. Honoring the richness of the American and European philosophical traditions, the Ancient Philosophy Society supports phenomenological, postmodern, Anglo-American, Straussian, Tübingen School, hermeneutic, comparative, psychoanalytic, queer, decolonial, feminist, philosophy of race, and other interpretations of ancient Greek and Roman philosophical and literary works.

Papers on any topic in ancient Greek and Roman philosophy are invited. We are especially interested in papers that focus on noncanonical figures and texts in ancient philosophy, including writings by Pythagorean women, Hellenistic schools, Pre-Socratic fragments, and late antique Neoplatonism. We also welcome papers comparing Hellenistic Judaism and Early Christian texts to ancient pagan thinkers.

The APS values diversity and particularly invites submissions from members of groups underrepresented in philosophy, including women, people of color, LGBTQI individuals, and people with disabilities. The APS will award a Diversity Prize and an Emerging Scholar Prize to papers written by members of groups underrepresented in philosophy and by PhD candidates and recent graduates.

The APS welcomes submissions of complete papers of no more than 3000 words.
