Dear all,
The Immoralism Reading Group will run through Michaelmas and Lent terms
and is open to all students and staff. We will meet to discuss work on
the limits to the appropriate application of moral concepts and values,
and the problems we run into when we exceed those limits. Our reading
list is tbd and open to suggestions, but is likely to include selections
from work by Susan Wolf, Richard Wollheim, Iris Murdoch, Bernard
Williams, and Daniel Jacobson.
We will meet fortnightly during term time from week 2, Wednesdays
1030am, in the (philosophy) Faculty Board Room.
Our first session is Wednesday 23 October, 1030am, Faculty Board Room.
We will discuss chapters 3 ('Morality and Partiality') and 8 ('Meaning
and Morality') from Susan Wolf's Variety of Values. Online access is
available via the University Library (https://bit.ly/2M91yWA).
If you're interested in joining the group please subscribe to our
mailing list: https://lists.cam.ac.uk/mailman/listinfo/soc-immoralism
We hope to see you there.
Best wishes,
Matt Bennett
Nakul Krishna
