Metaphysics Resurrected
Month long focus on metaphysics with philosopher Dylan Shaul
This August at The Portal we host philosopher Dylan Shaul for a series of reflections under the theme of “Metaphysics Resurrected”. Throughout this month you are invited to four events designed to introduce you to the history of metaphysics, including: the core of the metaphysical tradition, from Plato to Leibniz, the Kantian turn opening us to a post-metaphysical universe, the possible return of metaphysics in contemporary philosophy, as well as reflections on the relation of pure reason and mystical knowing. The entire schedule can be found below:
- Metaphysics Resurrected - Monday August 4th @ 830pm CEST
- Post-Kantian Speculative Theology - Monday August 11th @ 830pm CEST
- Theopolitics & the Mystery of the Kingdom - Monday August 18th @ 830pm CEST
- Mystical Reason, Rational Mysticism - Monday August 25th @ 830pm CEST
