Lecture Series: Philosophy by Hand: The Agency of Manuscripts in Shaping Human Thought (Hybrid)

April 10, 2025

The Centre for the Study of Manuscript Cultures at the University of Hamburg organizes the lecture series Philosophy by Hand, that reflects on the interaction between philosophical ideas and their expression in material form. The premise is that philosophical manuscripts are not mere contains of text, but rather places where philosophy happens. This perspective leads to new questions, new methods, and new forms of cooperation among disciplines. Each lecture will convey in a friendly and engaging manner the causal role manuscripts play in philosophical activity in different languages, eras, and cultural spheres.

Registration required.
