Philosophy, Literature and Education: A seminar series funded by the Philosophy of Education Society of Great Britain

Philosophy, Literature and Education: A seminar series funded by the Philosophy of Education Society of Great Britain.

Wednesday 17th February, Scarman House, University of Warwick (13.00-17.00).

Introductions by Professor David Bakhurst (Queens) and Professor Christine Sypnowich (Queens).

This invitation only seminar seeks to explore the educational potential of philosophy and literature from interdisciplinary perspectives. Themes to be examined include 'Learning from Philosophy and Literature' and 'Lessons from Dystopia'. The seminar builds upon questions that emerged in the first seminar (held at the University of Oxford, December 2015) and anticipates themes to be examined in the final seminar, which will be held at the British Academy in March 2016.

Coordinated by Dr Liam Gearon (Oxford) and Dr Emma Williams (Warwick).
