The Concept of World-Alienation in Twentieth Century German Thought – presented by Stéphane Symons 6:00 pm
The Concept of World-Alienation in Twentieth Century German Thought – presented by Stéphane Symons @ Wolff Conference Room/D1103
Apr 4 @ 6:00 pm – 8:00 pm
In the final part of The Human Condition (1958) Hannah Arendt turns to the danger of ‘world- alienation’. Based on a variety of discoveries and evolutions that are constitutive of modernity (globalization, Protestantism, the invention of the telescope), modern man has adopted an Archimedean, external position vis-à-vis the world.

Comparative Philosophy and Practical Applied Ethics. Laura Specker Sullivan (Fordham) @ Faculty Hoose
Apr 12 @ 5:30 pm – 7:30 pm
Comparative philosophy is gaining traction in professional academic philosophy, with specialist journals, organizations, books, and public campaigns. These inroads have been made in canonical areas of philosophy, including epistemology, metaphysics, logic, and value theory.
