Long Sunday’s ‘Critique of Violence’ Symposium

Long Sunday’s contributors have been nice enough to compile the links of the various posts that constitute their symposium on Benjamin’s ‘Critique of Violence’. In so doing, they have made this post much easier by reducing the numerous links envisaged to a single one; here is the round-up.

The posts that constitute the symposium make for interesting reading and are worth the time; my copies of them (and Benjamin’s piece that was their inspiration) are well decorated with marginalia at present (which may, or may not, be organised into some coherent thoughts at some point in the near future).

Perhaps it is more events of this kind that will secure the place of the philoblogosphere as a forum for philosophical discussion.

Personally, am prepared to support any symposia that take shape. Discussion is, generally, a good thing. The three of us – Rowan, Sam, and I – had a brief chat about possible topics for our own discussion, but really couldn’t thing of a specific topic (we really didn’t put too much effort into it …).

Thanks for stopping by.
