Naomi Mitchison Lecture: The Menace of Hope at the Back of Life
By Scottish PEN, Irish PEN and Wales PEN Cymru
Multiple dates
Overview
Weaving worlds of love, rage and foolish marvels - how might we live well through the apocalypse?
Today, many are wondering what might be done, where now for protest, philosophy and the work of the pen?
Taking inspiration from 3 modern thinkers: Keith Hammond, Peter Matheson, and Kathy Galloway, Professor Alison Phipps will reflect on how their thinking connects us to the concerns of Naomi Mitchison today: weaving worlds of love, rage and foolish marvels that work with the voices at the 'back of the blood and the brain' from below and behind, and at the back of life.
Is all lost? How might we live well through the apocolypse?
