Topical Seminars | Dostoyevsky's "The Grand Inquisitor" and Socrates's Myth of the Cave
Topical Seminars is a monthly series of seminars based upon essays whose topics include philosophy, the arts and literature, science, politics, economics communications, and much more. Participants are asked to read an essay chosen by the facilitation team and then submit a written response in advance of each session. In the group meeting, we have a lively discussion on the posted piece and on the participants’ responses to it.
Topical Seminars meets the second Wednesday of each month from 3:00 until 5:00 PM. Essays are available for reading at our website a month in advance. Responses are due no later than the day before each meeting and are also posted on the website.
For more information, email the facilitator.
