Therefore, we encourage philosophical discourse in the fields of ethics, politics, metaphysics, pragmatism, etc., on such women as Hannah Arendt, Simone de Beauvoir, Princess Elizabeth of Bohemia, and Julia Kristeva. Papers are to be approximately 10-15 pg., double-spaced, with end-notes sequentially numbered and gathered at the end of the paper. Authors should refer to The Chicago Manual of Style for parenthetical citations, etc. Submissions should include two copies of the manuscript to be reviewed and a 3.5 IBM/PC formatted diskette with a copy of the manuscript in Word or Wordperfect 6.0 (or an older version).
