What we’re about
Grounded Ideas is a monthly book club focused on practical philosophy. It grew out of Amsterdam’s thriving community of philosophy enthusiasts.
We prepare for each meeting by reading a philosophical text beforehand, sticking to original works. To make it doable, we usually read 30–40 pages as preparation. This is plentiful for a two-hour discussion.
The group's repertoire so far consists of texts in political philosophy and philosophical novels.
We are happy to welcome anyone, regardless of background and experience. If our format works for you, please join! Your curiosity is all we need :)
