Thank you for maintaining this resource. It's rare to find such a thoughtful gathering of materials at the intersection of philosophy and literary studies.
Delighted to discover this site. The event listings have pointed me toward several conferences I would have otherwise missed.
The guestbook for this site reflects the quiet but dedicated community that has grown around the intersections of ordinary language philosophy and literary studies. Readers and researchers from various institutions have shared how the bibliographies, reading lists, and discussion of thinkers like Cavell, Wittgenstein, and Austin have supported their work on ethics, moral perfectionism, and the texture of everyday language. These brief entries reveal a shared appreciation for how OLP opens up questions about reading, acknowledgment, and the ordinary dimensions of literary experience. The guestbook stands as a modest record of ongoing conversations that connect scholars across disciplines, reminding us that philosophy and literature meet not only in journals but in the patient, collaborative work of interpretation.
