Essay Het individu als houvast in godloze tijden
Minder ‘ikkigheid’? We hebben net méér ik nodig
In zijn nieuwe boek neemt Dirk De Wachter de rol van pastoor op zich. Hij lacht er een beetje mee, maar vindt het
nodig in deze tijden van eenzaamheid en burn-out. Nick Cave geeft op
zijn website raad aan fans die de weg kwijt zijn. Is dat nu echt wat
wij, bevrijde individuen, nodig hebben? Iemand die ons zegt hoe het
leven te leiden?

2019 Topic: The Significance of Paradoxes
Philosophers of logic and language and metaphysicians of substance,
space and time have long been interested in paradoxes but so to a lesser
degree have philosophers of mind and moral
philosophers, eg in relation to self-deception, weakness of will and
moral dilemmas. Essays are invited on the philosophical use of paradox.
Authors may consider the implications of seeming or
real paradoxes in specific areas of philosophy, where the paradoxes
in question may be strictly logical or more informal, or they may
examine the general significance of paradox for accounts of
thought and of reality.
