What does cutting-edge research in philosophy look like? What are pressing and enduring questions it uncovers, and ways of addressing them? This event offers a taste. From enduring questions about the nature of morality and human experience, to urgent questions about how to overcome oppression, research conducted in Concordia’s Department of Philosophy reflects this diversity.
The Kristeva Circle supports research on, or influenced by, philosopher, psychoanalyst and novelist Julia Kristeva. The Circle holds regular gatherings to establish and advance Kristeva scholarship nationally and internationally. During these gatherings, scholars from a variety of fields and disciplines exchange ideas and collaborate on projects related to the work of Julia Kristeva.
