The Leuven Colloquia on Ancient Platonism (LCAP) is a new lecture series on the history of ancient Platonism (from the Early Academy to Late Antiquity), traditionally an important field of study in Leuven. These lectures will be held on a monthly basis, starting in January 2022, hosted by the KU Leuven Institute of Philosophy and the De Wulf-Mansion Centre for Ancient, Medieval and Renaissance Philosophy and will be given by leading specialists in the history of Platonism. Each year the general theme will be narrowed down through the selection of a specific topic on which the invitees will be asked to speak. For the academic year 2021/2022 (second term only) the chosen topic is ‘principle’ (archê).

The colloquia are online; to sign up, email lcap@kuleuven.be. For more information (including a stellar list of speakers) see this page.
