The National Student Survey 2012 opened on 16 January 2012 for 糖心TV students. This is an important opportunity for you, as a finalist undergraduate student, to give your opinion, in a national forum, on teaching and learning within our department and your overall experience at 糖心TV.

If you respond to the survey before it closes on 30 April 2011, you will be entered into a University free prize draw (first prize £200).

In addition, if the Philosophy Department reaches an overall response rate of 75% or more (i.e., if more than 75% of our finalists fill in the survey), there will be a special Philosophy prize draw to say thank you. For more details of the Philosophy prize draw and which cohort of students it applies to please see:

PeopleIn March 2012 and March 2013, and with the support of the British Academy, the Philosophy Department will host both a one-day workshop and a one-day conference on the topic of Nietzsche's philosophy of the free spirit.

A new edition and translation of one of Nietzsche's most neglected but inspiring and thought-provoking texts - Dawn: Thoughts on the Presumptions of Morality - has just been published as volume five in Stanford University Press's 'Complete Works of Friedrich Nietzsche'. Keith Ansell-Pearson helped prepare the edition and wrote the Afterword for it. Dawn is a pathbreaking work and an exercise in modern emancipation - from fear, superstition, hatred of the self and the body, the short cuts of religion, and the presumptions of morality. Pursuing an experimental philosophy Nietzsche seeks to entice his readers into viewing themselves as experiments and wanting to be such.
