Lecture by Nicholas de Warren
Institut für die Wissenschaften vom Menschen (IWM)
Spittelauer Lände 2, 1090 Wien
Donnerstag, 19. Februar, 18:00 Uhr
In this lecture, centered around André Malraux’s evocative statement “I am searching for that crucial region of the soul where absolute evil hangs in balance against fraternity,” I explore different facets of the destruction of fraternity in the First World War. Through a set of poetical, political, and philosophical meditations on the conflict between fraternity and evil, I propose a conjecture on the challenge of Manichaeism for the 20th century, and beyond.
Nicholas de Warren is Professor of Philosophy and coordinator of the Husserl archives at the Center for Phenomenology and Continental Philosophy at the Catholic University in Leuven.
