Philosophy lecture at Williams TOMORROW NIGHT... I'll be there - will you? Where else will you ever get the chance to hear philosophy described as "a cerebral form of shock therapy"?
Plato's Poetic Redemption of Socrates' Tragic Neglect of Poetry
4:15 p.m., Hopkin B1964
Lecture by Joseph Lawrence, Professor of Philosophy, College of Holy Cross. At home in the hills of Kentucky, Lawrence is emphatically an outsider (and a highly critical one) to the world of middle-class suburbia. Accustomed to philosophize with a hammer, his teaching has been likened to a cerebral form of shock therapy. Most of his publications have been on the philosopher Schelling, though he has made frequent forays into ancient philosophy and the wisdom traditions of the East. Sponsored by the Philosophy Department.
