    Minerva is a
  refereed electronic journal of philosophy. It is published annually and is
  available on an open-access basis on the Internet. The journal publishes
  articles relating to philosophy construed in a broad but scholarly sense,
  without preference for any particular school or intellectual tradition. Each
  volume will appear in the month of November. As an electronic journal, Minerva provides swift publication and distribution,
  while reaction to published articles can be garnered with equal speed. It is
  intended that the journal will foster debate by publishing considered replies
  to certain articles and providing a forum for scholarly discourse.  
   
    Articles
  should be submitted (in Word or RTF format) by e-mail to Dr. Stephen Thornton, or by
  surface post on diskette only, to:

  Mary Immaculate College (University of Limerick), 
  South Circular Road,

  Ireland.

  relation to any submission which is not accepted for publication in the
