Che cos’è la filosofia? E che cosa non è?

Traduzione in italiano…

Our very first table :) Everyone carries some idea of what philosophy is: something old and Greek, something in heavy books, something that happens at 2 a.m. in a kitchen. For our first session, we turn the question on ourselves: What is philosophy? And what is not? Bring two small things with you: one example of something you think IS philosophy, and one you think is NOT. A song, a habit, a conversation, a job, a joke, anything. We'll start there. Some threads we might follow: • How would you put it, in your own words? • Where does philosophy show up in your own life, if at all? • Where is the line? Is a late-night argument in a bar philosophy? A proverb your grandmother used to say? A scientific theory? A self-help book? • And what could "street philosophy" be: philosophy at an ordinary table, in ordinary words? Yes, no, both, neither: all four are welcome answers. How it works • 18:00 arrive, get a drink, say hi (I’ll give a small intro) • 18:10 the question opens • 20:00 we close • Up to 5 seats. If your plans change, please cancel your RSVP so someone on the waitlist can come. • Free. You only pay for your own drinks. • In English. No reading, no prior knowledge, no famous names needed. The spirit of the table We listen more than we talk: about 70% listening, 30% talking. We disagree with ideas, never with people. We come to think with others, not to win or to convince, so this is not a place for conspiracy theories or campaigning. Phones on silent, please. It's just two hours :) Where: Peter Pane, Schäferkampsallee 1 This first table also opens our records. A short write-up of what we found will go on our website, and nothing personal is published without your consent: https://sudhara-jayalath.github.io/toic/ See you at the table, Sudhara
