The German Philosophy Reading Group at the IGRS, which started last year, will reconvene in the coming academic year. The seminars are open to Philosophers and Germanists, both students and staff. The reading group offers an opportunity for close reading and discussion of a selection of seminal texts in the history of German thought in their original form and - where relevant - to practice German philosophy reading skills.
The title for this year will be: 'Understanding Being: Hegel's Science of Logic and Philosophical Storytelling from Hebel to Adorno'.
