Death and Trauma
December 20th 2012, 6.15pm
The Swedenborg Hall, 20 Bloomsbury Way, London, WC1A 2TH
Speakers: Adam Broomberg & Oliver Chanarin, Dr Jennifer Pollard and Professor Robert Eaglestone
‘Death and Trauma’ is the second in the series of events ‘Death and the Contemporary’, hosted by Georgina Colby and Anthony Luvera. The twenty-first century has witnessed a proliferation of work in the area of trauma, and it is widely acknowledged that our contemporary culture is a post-traumatic culture. How has trauma impacted the philosophical issues surrounding death? A panel discussion with four speakers from across the disciplines of literature, the visual arts, and philosophy will provide an exciting forum in which to explore the issues surrounding death and trauma in contemporary culture.
Tickets: £5 full price; £3 reductions
