Dear all (cc: M Steenhagen), Herewith notice of an informal reading group entering its third year, dedicated to reading works outside, or at an angle to, the analytic mainstream.
'Schmilosophy' this term will be devoted to works by, or that inspired or were inspired by, Richard Wollheim (1923–2003), a philosopher of unusual breath and depth who wrote about socialism, the visual arts and Freudian psychoanalysis. In our first week, we'll be reading Wollheim's short but rich essay 'Minimal Art', which introduced the term 'minimalism' to art criticism. A full programme with scanned copies of all the readings is available here (there may be small changes to the reading list later in term): https://nakulkrishna.com/schmilosophy/ The primary audience is undergraduates interested in broadening their philosophical horizons, but everyone is welcome. RSVPs not necessary, but I'd appreciate an e-mail if you're coming so I can make sure we have space and catering. Please write to me if you'd like to be added to our e-mail list (if you were on it last year, you don't need to write again). *Time*: 1100 to 1300, Saturdays of term (the official meeting lasts from 1130 to 1230, but there'll be room for informal conversation on both sides; the first meeting is on *Saturday the 6th of October*) *Venue*: Garden Room, Robinson College There will be a machine supplying hot drinks; contributions of £0.50 are requested to help pay for the catering. With best wishes, Nakul Krishna and Maarten Steenhagen Organisers _____________________________________________________ To unsubscribe from the CamPhilEvents mailing list, or change your membership options, please visit the list information page: http://bit.ly/CamPhilEvents List archive: http://bit.ly/CamPhilEventsArchive Please note that CamPhilEvents doesn't accept email attachments.
