Ask The Philosopher: A Philosophical Chat – Bring your biggest questions!

Details

Why am I here? Am I free? Do I have a soul? What is the difference between "right" and "wrong"? How do I know things about myself and the world around me? What is a question? Does my dog love me? Should we ban billionaires? Is ignorance bliss? .....

Join us on Zoom for a fun, informal philosophical chat with members of The Philosopher's Editorial Team. This month’s guest philosophers are James Andow, Maryam Aghdami, and Michael Bavidge.

Bring your biggest philosophical questions, and we will try our best to offer some engaging responses.

If you are attending, you are invited and encouraged to submit a question in advance to thephilosopher1923@gmail.com with the subject line "Ask The Philosopher".

This will be a fun, informal conversation. No experience of philosophy is required!

The event is free to attend but the Zoom registration page has an optional donation amount by default that you can change to zero (or whatever you wish). Donations go to The Philosopher magazine to cover our costs and expand the scope of our events series.

About The Philosopher (https://www.thephilosopher1923.org/):

The Philosopher is the longest-running public philosophy journal in the UK (founded in 1923). It is published by the The Philosophical Society of England (http://www.philsoceng.uk/), a registered charity founded ten years earlier than the journal in 1913, and still running regular groups, workshops, and conferences around the UK. As of 2018, The Philosopher is edited by Newcastle-based philosopher Anthony Morgan and is published quarterly, both in print and digitally.

The journal aims to represent contemporary philosophy in all its many and constantly evolving forms, both within academia and beyond. Contributors over the years have ranged from John Dewey and G.K. Chesterton to contemporary thinkers like Christine Korsgaard, Olúfẹ́mi Táíwò, Elizabeth Anderson, Martin Hägglund, Cary Wolfe, Avital Ronell, and Adam Kotsko.
