The Journal for the Philosophy of Language, Mind and the Arts open access | peer reviewed
Aims & Scope
The Journal for the Philosophy of Language, Mind and the Arts is an online, biannual, periodical journal, published by Edizioni Ca’ Foscari Digital Publishing.The Journal is the expression of an active research group based at the Department of Philosophy and Cultural Heritage of Ca’ Foscari University, in Venice (Italy). The same group of scholars previously founded a research centre called CLAVeS, which currently gathers the scientific activities (seminars, conferences, meetings, etc.) that its members hold in Venice. The research topics this Journal investigates stand between Philosophy of Language, Philosophy of Mind, Aesthetics, and Philosophy of Art. Hence, the Journal is intended to offer a chance to develop a thorough and interdisciplinary research (in terms of both interrelations and exchanges within the international scientific community. Furthermore, the Journal is set to provide the opportunity to discuss several theoretical issues, which lie at the core of contemporary philosophical and scientific debate. No particular school or theoretical orientation as well as attitude is excluded a priori. Indeed, contributors are asked to hold an open perspective without any dogmatism, as well as due rigour of argumentation and thematic choices, in order to abide by the richness and variety of theoretical approaches and visions. The Journal is recognised as a scientific journal for areas 10 (Ancient, philological-literary and historical-artistic sciences) and 11 (Historical, philosophical, pedagogical and psychological sciences) by the National Agency for the Evaluation of the University System and Research.

CALL FOR PAPERS (JOLMA 8 | 1-2 | 2027)
After Wittgenstein: Philosophy and the Arts in Dialogue
Special double issue of JoLMA – Journal for the Philosophy of Language, Mind and the Arts
Editors: Francesco Ragazzi, Elena Valeri
JoLMA – Journal for the Philosophy of Language, Mind and the Arts invites submissions for a special double issue that aims to critically map the ways in which Ludwig Wittgenstein’s philosophy has influenced aesthetics and the arts from the twentieth to the twenty-first century. Contributions addressing the relationship between art and philosophy from a theoretical perspective are also welcome.
Wittgenstein’s reflections on aesthetics and the arts have often proved elusive and complex, not only because of their fragmentary and elliptical character, but also because of the difficulty of situating them within the established traditions of aesthetic thought. Nevertheless, it is widely acknowledged that aesthetic concerns, together with a sustained engagement with art (especially music and poetry) occupy a significant place in Wittgenstein’s philosophy. These concerns can be traced from the Tractatus Logico-Philosophicus – where Wittgenstein famously states that “ethics and aesthetics are one” (6.421) – and the writings surrounding its composition, through his philosophical work after 1929, to the remarks he devoted to colour in the final years of his life. Moreover, it has often been noted – sometimes approvingly, at other times critically – that, in reflecting on the aims and methods of his philosophical work, as well as on his philosophical style, Wittgenstein consistently aligns his own practice more with that of the artist than with that of the scientist, or with that of the philosopher who takes science as a model for philosophy, thereby drawing philosophy closer to art and aesthetics.
What is clear and remarkable is the incalculable influence that Wittgenstein’s thought has exerted on aesthetic theory and artistic practices (Carroll 2012). Wittgensteinian notions such as family resemblance (Weitz 1956; Mandelbaum 1965), language-game (Cavell 1969; Hunter 1980), forms of life (Wollheim 1968; Margolis 1999; Cooper 2010), aspect-seeing (McFee 1999), training (Hertzberg 1992; Peters, Stickney 2018), and rule-following (Appelqvist 2013; Sedivy 2014; Wenzel 2016), among others, have been employed in addressing a wide range of questions concerning pictorial representation (Wollheim 1998; Kemp, Mras 2016), aesthetic attitude (Kaidisch 2025), aesthetic judgement (Cavell 1969; Borutti 2013), the definition of art (Danto 1964; Dreon 2019), the ontology of artworks (Goodman 1968; Korsmeyer 1978), and their value (Tilghman 1986).
It is equally remarkable, and amply documented, that many artists have engaged with Wittgenstein’s philosophy across a wide variety of artistic fields: Eduardo Paolozzi (Mantoan, Perissinotto 2019; Valeri 2026), Joseph Kosuth (Vankeerberghen 1989; Bertozzi Castelli 2012), and Bruce Nauman (Ammann 1986) in the visual arts, Yvonne Rainer in dance (Formis 2023), Cornelius Cardew (Pujadas 2018; Cline 2020), Steve Reich (Cowan 1986), and Elisabeth Lutyens (Parsons 1999) in music, Derek Jarman in cinema (Bowell 2001; Burns 2011), Thomas Bernhard (Di Massa 2026), Ingeborg Bachmann (Munz 2024), and Kenneth Goldsmith in literature (Perloff 2015; Goldsmith 2023), to mention only some of the best-known cases.
Despite this extensive body of work, much remains to be said and explored about the relationship between Wittgenstein’s philosophy, its aesthetic dimensions, and art. For this reason, JoLMA is launching a call for papers for the publication of a double issue aimed at mapping the influence Wittgenstein’s thought has had both on aesthetic theory and on contemporary artistic practices. In this context, however, philosophical reflection and artistic practice are not understood as separate domains, but rather as interconnected fields engaged in an ongoing dialogue.
One fundamental set of questions we would like to address is the following: How have artists engaged with Wittgenstein and his thought, and how have they contributed to its interpretation through their works or writings? Conversely, how has post-Wittgensteinian aesthetic theory transformed our understanding of art or of individual artistic disciplines? And, finally, what kind of orientation can Wittgenstein’s philosophy still offer to twenty-first-century aesthetics?
These questions naturally draw our attention to the canon of analytic philosophy and to artistic movements such as Minimalism and Conceptual Art. We nevertheless wonder whether such a relatively circumscribed perspective is the only possible one. For this reason, we also encourage submissions that explore encounters between Wittgenstein’s thought and non-Western philosophies, as well as contributions devoted to non-canonical authors, artists, and intellectual traditions, or to subjects and perspectives that have traditionally been regarded as marginal. We particularly welcome feminist approaches and contributions addressing the work of women philosophers, aestheticians, writers, and artists.
In light of all these premises, JoLMA invites articles addressing the following topics:
a) the relationship between art and philosophy: theoretical approaches;
b) underexplored aspects of Wittgenstein’s thought concerning art and aesthetics or the philosophy of art;
c) Wittgenstein’s philosophy, or individual Wittgensteinian concepts and notions, in contemporary aesthetics and the philosophy of art;
d) the influence of Wittgenstein on art and aesthetics;
e) contemporary art and aesthetics in the light of Wittgenstein;
f) artists (across all artistic disciplines) who have engaged with Wittgenstein’s philosophy;
g) artworks and artifacts that refer to, draw on, or are inspired by Wittgenstein.
Each of the two issues will contain a maximum of eight articles, including invited contributions.
All submissions will be received through a single call for papers closing on April 30th, 2027.
The editors reserve the right to determine how the accepted essays will be distributed between the two issues.
Submission deadline: April 30th, 2027
Notification of acceptance: May 31st, 2027
Articles must be written in English and should not exceed 6,500 words (40,000 characters approx.). The instructions for authors can be consulted in the journal’s website: ‘Editorial Guidelines’.
Please submit your articles via the ‘Submit’ section of the journal’s website.
Submissions must be suitable for blind review. Each submission should include a brief abstract of no more than 650 words and five keywords for indexing purposes.
A notification of intent to submit, including both a title and a brief summary of the content, would be greatly appreciated, as it will assist the editors in coordinating and planning the double issue.
For any question, please contact the editors: Francesco Ragazzi (francesco.ragazzi@unive.it) and Elena Valeri (elena.valeri@unive.it).
This call for papers is issued within the framework of the WITT-ART – Wittgenstein in Modern and Contemporary Art project (SOE2024_0000148, CUP: H73C24001980001), hosted by Ca’ Foscari University of Venice and funded by the European Union – NextGenerationEU – PNRR – Mission 4, Component 2, Investment 1.2.

Ethical Code of The Journal for the Philosophy of Language, Mind and the Arts
The Journal for the Philosophy of Language, Mind and the Arts is a peer-reviewed scientific journal whose policy is inspired by the COPE (Committee on Publication Ethics) Ethical Code. See the Best Practice Guidelines for Journal Editors.
Publisher’s responsibilities
The Publisher must provide the Journal with adequate resources and the guidance of experts, in order to carry out its role in the most professional way, aiming at the highest quality standard.
The Publisher must have a written agreement that defines the relationship with the owner of the Journal and/or the Editor-in-Chief. The agreement must comply with the Code of Behavior for Publishers of Scientific Journals, as established by COPE.
The relationship among the Editor-in-Chief, the Advisory Board and the Publisher is based on the principle of publishing independence.
Editors’ responsibilities
The Editor-in-Chief and the Advisory Board of The Journal for the Philosophy of Language, Mind and the Arts alone are responsible for the decision to publish the articles submitted.
Submitted articles, after having been checked for plagiarism by means of the anti-plagiarism software Compilatio that is used by the University and is made available to us, will be sent to at least two reviewers. Final acceptance presumes the implementation of possible amendments, as required by the reviewers and under the supervision of The Journal for the Philosophy of Language, Mind and the Arts Editor-in-Chief.
The Journal for the Philosophy of Language, Mind and the Arts Editor-in-Chief and Advisory Board must evaluate each submitted paper in compliance with the Journalʼs policy, i.e. exclusively on the basis of its scientific content, without discrimination of race, sex, gender, creed, ethnic origin, citizenship, or the scientific, academic and political position of the Authors.
Allegations of misconduct
If The Journal for the Philosophy of Language, Mind and the Arts Editor-in-Chief and Advisory Board notice (or receive notifications of) mistakes or inaccuracies, conflict of interest or plagiarism in a published article, they will immediately warn the Author and the Publisher and will undertake the necessary actions to resolve the issue. They will do their best to correct the published content whenever they are informed that it contains scientific errors or that the authors have committed unethical or illegal acts in connection with their published work. If necessary, they will withdraw the article or publish a recantation.
All complaints are handled in accordance with the guidelines published by the COPE.
Concerns and complaints must be addressed to the following e-mail ecf_support@unive.it. The letter should contain the following information:
- complainant’s personal information;
- title, author(s), publication date, DOI;
- complaint(s);
- declaration that the complainant has no conflict of interest, or declaration of an actual or potential conflict of interest.
Authors’ responsibilities
Stylesheet
Authors must follow the Guidelines for Authors to be downloaded from The Journal for the Philosophy of Language, Mind and the Arts website.
Authors must explicitly state that their work is original in all its parts and that the submitted paper has not been previously published, nor submitted to other journals, until the entire evaluation process is completed. Since no paper gets published without significant revision, earlier dissemination in conference proceedings or working papers does not preclude consideration for publication, but Authors are expected to fully disclose publication/dissemination of the material in other closely related publications, so that the overlap can be evaluated by The Journal for the Philosophy of Language, Mind and the Arts Editor-in-Chief.
Authorship
Authors are strongly encouraged to use their ORCID iD when submitting a manuscript. This will ensure the authors’ visibility and correct citation of their work.
Authorship must be correctly attributed; all those who have given a substantial contribution to the design, organisation and accomplishment of the research the article is based on, must be indicated as Co-Authors. Please ensure that: the order of the author names is correct; the names of all authors are present and correctly spelled, and that affiliations are up-to-date.
The respective roles of each co-author should be described in a footnote. The statement that all authors have approved the final version should be included in the disclosure.
Conflicts of interest and financing
Authors, under their own responsibility, must avoid any conflict of interest affecting the results obtained or the interpretations suggested. The Journal for the Philosophy of Language, Mind and the Arts Editor-in-Chief will give serious and careful consideration to suggestions of cases in which, due to possible conflict of interest, an Author’s work should not be reviewed by a specific scholar. Authors should indicate any financing agency or the project the article stems from.
Quotations
Authors must see to it that all works consulted be properly quoted. If works or words of others are used, they have to be properly paraphrased or duly quoted. Quotations between “double quotes” (or «angled quotation marks» if the text is written in a language other than English) must reproduce the exact wording of the source; under their own responsibility, Authors should carefully refrain from disguising a restyling of the source’s wording, as though it was the original formulation.
Any form of excessive, inappropriate or unnecessary self-citation, as well as any other form of citation manipulation, are strongly discouraged.
Ethical Committee
Whenever required, the research protocols must be authorised in advance by the Ethical Committee of Ca’ Foscari University of Venice.
Emendations
When Authors find a mistake or an inaccuracy in their own article, they must immediately warn The Journal for the Philosophy of Language, Mind and the Arts Editor-in-Chief, providing all the information needed to make the due adjustments.
Reviewers’ responsibilities
Goal
By means of the peer-review procedure, reviewers assist The Journal for the Philosophy of Language, Mind and the Arts Editor-in-Chief and Advisory Board in taking decisions on the articles submitted. They are expected to offer the Authors suggestions as to possible adjustments aimed at improving their contribution submission.
Timing and conflicts of interest
If a reviewer does not feel up to the task of doing a given review, or if she/he is unable to read the work within the agreed schedule, she/he should notify The Journal for the Philosophy of Language, Mind and the Arts Editor-in-Chief. Reviewers must not accept articles for which there is a conflict of interest due to previous contributions or to a competition with a disclosed author (or with an author they believe to have identified).
Confidentiality
The content of the reviewed work must be considered confidential and must not be used without explicit authorisation by the Author, who is to be contacted via the editor-in-chief. Any confidential information obtained during the peer review process should not be used for other purposes.
Collaborative attitude
Reviewers should see themselves not as adversaries but as advocates for the field. Any comment must be done in a collaborative way and from an objective point of view. Reviewers should clearly motivate their comments and keep in mind the Golden Rule of Reviewing: “Review for others as you would have others review for you”.
Plagiarism
Reviewers should report any similarity or overlapping of the work under analysis with other works known to them.
