About Us
Our Mission Statement
Dianoia fosters opportunities for undergraduate students in philosophy and other humanities-related disciplines to participate with academic scholarship and institutions. The journal is committed to facilitating undergraduate engagement in philosophical theory and publishing.
What does ‘dianoia’ mean?
The ancient Greek word 'διάνοια' translates as ‘thought’ but connotes a discursive direction or search for a higher form of knowledge. We thus hope to direct philosophical discourse toward an intellectually rigorous level of thinking.
What sort of papers is Dianoia looking to publish?
We're looking for thoughtful, original and creative papers on any philosophical idea or topic. There is no length requirement, all citations must be in Chicago format and multiple submissions are allowed; however, please notify us if your work is selected for publication elsewhere.
