CFP: Idiosyncracy of Thinking: On Alphonso Lingis’s Philosophical Opera

We shall address Alphonso Lingis’s philosophical opera and approach it in terms of its uniqueness, peculiarity, and irreducible singularity. Lingis’s phenomenological work is genuinely fascinating because, following Deleuze, he urges his readers to discover how to speak in their own distinctive manner, to find a singular and unmistakable voice. The deadline for proposals is January 15, 2026 to both emails: This email address is being protected from spambots.
