À propos de ce contenu audio
We talk with Wayne Turner, self-described disciples of Hannah Arendt. Arendt is a giant in political and moral philosophy in the 20th Century. Someone whose identity as a refugee stayed with her. She continued working and writing as a kind of refugee within academia her whole life. She eschewed hierarchical roles and titles, preferring to stay closer to her origins of having to begin again. Wayne gives us an overview of Arednt’s sense of natality - as humans we are the ones who are given a beginning. We are born into the world. And we have the freedom to begin again, with creative projects, with worlds that overlap and intersect. And we inhabit worlds through plurality - the voices and perspectives of others that enrich us all. Arendt’s sense of purpose differs from that of world alienation, ways in which we degrade creation, the natural world, and each other through technical ways of knowing that kill, rather than sustain life. Join us as we think through some of Arendt’s understanding of being human in a time in which asking reflective questions is eschewed in the political realm. Wayne lives in Saskatoon and is a former union organizer and community academic.
