Presented by : Jean-Marie Durand. With : Gayatri Chakravorty Spivak, Robert Maggiori and Pierre Mercklé.

Amidst the trials and transformations of our contemporary world, strengthening the humanities seems all the more urgent and necessary; yet they are currently at risk. Countless thinkers are rallying to remind us of how important it is to have works and ideas circulate, and to find new ways to pass down knowledge. In this context, the emergence of technology within the humanities has deeply changed the way we perceive teaching and is hopefully paving the way for more widespread access to this irreplaceable sum of knowledge.

The event is full; reservations have now closed. You can still show up on the day of the event and take advantage of any last-minute withdrawals.
