Title: What is the Good of Public Philosophy?

ABSTRACT:

There has been a boom in public philosophy recently, with philosophers taking full advantage of the range of new media as well as continuing with the old. This session is titled ‘What is the good of public philosophy?’ There have been many answers to this question, including enrichment, guidance, self-improvement, entertainment, and citizenry. But as I research this literature, I find few if any linking public philosophy to the goods of university access and participation. In this session, then, I pose a more specific set of question: Does public philosophy support the good of widening participation? Does widening participation need public philosophy? If so, what kind of public philosophy does it need? At first glance, public philosophy does not look essential to widening participation in university philosophy. On further investigation, however, there is a role for philosophers to play in raising awareness of the discipline of philosophy, encouraging and increasing philosophical literacy, and shaping the environment and image of philosophy.

For the Spring/Summer terms in 2022 CineMAP will be hosting a documentary film programme under CineMAPxDocs, featuring a range of documentary shorts and feature-length releases, nonfiction moving image works, poetic docs and essay films alongside observational films with an international focus.

These films will continue to be curated to depict observations on race, sex, gender and class, and will additionally look at topics surrounding environmentalism and ecological awareness as radical action.

To kick off the screenings we will start with Agnès Varda's 2000 poetic documentary 'The Gleaners & I':

"A documentary about finding value where others see nothing, this beautiful and eccentric work is the result of Agnès Varda spending a year touring France to find and talk to the people who forage and salvage what is disposed of by others. Ranging from those who salvage to survive, to artists, activists and workers who use scavenged goods, the film ably examines class and culture, and finds time to reflect upon the nature of cinema and mortality, too." (credit: ICA)

The screening will take place from 6pm on Microsoft Teams, and a discussion will follow.
