Irad Kimhi: Thinking and Being
@ The Seminary Co-op Bookstores
5751 S Woodlawn Ave, Chicago, IL 60637
Opening Wednesday, March 13th, from 6PM - 7PM
“Irad Kimhi’s “Thinking and Being” is a profound philosophical inquiry into mind and world. The text is difficult. I had to work hard at every sentence to make sure I was following the argument. But the more I did this the more I realized that this book challenges fundamental assumptions of logic and metaphysics that have dominated analytic philosophy throughout the twentieth century and into the present. By going back to the ancient Greeks, Kimhi reanimates a sense of what we might mean by first philosophy. I believe this book marks a turning point.”––Jonathan Lear, University of Chicago
Irad Kimhi discusses “Thinking and Being”. He will be joined in conversation by James Conant. A Q&A and signing will follow the discussion.
