FAH/DPHIL International Hybrid Symposium – “Museum Ecologies Reconsidered: Cultural Value in the Web of Life” by Prof. Colin Sterling, University of Amsterdam, Netherlands)
Abstract In the face of rapid environmental breakdown and increased social and political uncertainty, cultural institutions around the world have mobilised to imagine alternative ways of living on and with the planet. This talk will argue that such shifts indicate more than simply a change in policy or practice, and instead point towards a fundamental reorientation of culture in the web of life. By focusing on the historical formation and evolving place of museums in this web, the talk will explore how museums have contributed to the planetary crisis through specific symbolic and material practices, but also how emerging approaches in the field might help to unravel some of the more destructive aspects of this entanglement. What might be gained […]

FAH/DPHIL International Hybrid Symposium – “The virtues of memory; What we remember and how we remember can be soul-destroying or life-enhancing” by Prof. Charles Raliaferro
FAH/DPHIL International Hybrid Symposium – “The virtues of memory; What we remember and how we remember can be soul-destroying or life-enhancing” by Prof. Charles Raliaferro
Abstract Memory, meaning, and values are deeply interrelated. While memory enables us to transcend time through narratives, there is a sense in which we transcend time (the temporally present instant) every waking moment (and in dream states). We cannot live in temporal instants (the present "now" that has no duration); rather we live in durations, events or episodes that we are able to grasp and weave together through memory (re-cognition). Memory, as it shapes narratives and stories of ourselves and others-- plays an indispensable role in our personal identity and understanding of the meaning and values of life. I suggest that we have obligations to remember, especially in terms of moral accountability, and from the standpoint of gratitude toward benefactors (including ancestors and teachers), […]
