Channel: pmilat
Date: 2014-07-02

Talk at the conference "SOPHISTRY - The Powers of the False" at MaMa, Zagreb [June 27-29,2014]

————————

Our symposium will take up sophistry not only as a matter of historical concern but also contemporary contestation: as one way to think through not only the relation between the true and the false, but also the "ancient" and the "modern," not only the philosophical past but also the future of philosophy.

Ray Brassier is Associate Professor of Philosophy at the American University of Beirut. He is currently working on two books: 'Reasons, Patterns, and Processes: Sellars' Transcendental Naturalism' and 'That Which Is Not', a study of the reality of appearances.
