Themes	The themes of the 28th Annual Hume Conference are: Hume and Locke, Hume and the Passions, and Hume as Storyteller. Our invited speakers and many of our book panels address one of these themes, as do many submitted papers. In addition, we have planned a symposium on Hume's remark, 'A wise man, therefore, proportions his belief to the evidence' (EHU 10.4).

Conference Location	All conference sessions will be held at Dunsmuir Lodge, a conference centre maintained by the University of Victoria. The Lodge is located about 25 kms (15 miles) north of Victoria on a beautiful 100 acre site (which itself adjoins a 600 acre park) on the eastern slope of Mt. Newton, from which it overlooks the Georgia Strait and its many islands as well as the mountains of the British Columbia mainland. The Lodge itself is an easy to reach and attractive building with appropriate conference facilities. The conference will begin on the afternoon of July 25th and end on the evening of July 28th. For the four nights of the conference we have reserved for participants all the forty-five guest rooms at the Lodge. For those who wish to arrive early or stay later, twenty rooms have been reserved for the nights of July 24th and July 29th; more rooms are available for these nights on a first-come, first-served basis.
