Phenomenology. The Phenomenology Reading Group will devote its final meetings this semester to Walter Benjamin’s Messianic-materialist thought on the nature of history. The meetings will be Wednesdays at 5–6.30 pm by zoom on 22 May and 5 June (the latter to be confirmed). We will begin by discussing Benjamin’s “Theses on the Philosophy of History”. Please get in touch with the convenor Alex Samely if you wish to join. Further information.
