Title:

UTCP Graduate Conference 2012 "Practicing Japanese Philosophy: Mind and Activity"

Date:
2012年2月18日(土)-19日(日)
Place:
東京大学駒場キャンパス18号館4階コラボレーションルーム1

Keynote Speaker: Graham Parkes (Professor, University College Cork)

This conference will explore the experiential possibility of thinking in Japanese philosophy and other related disciplines. Writing, speaking, singing, meditating and even walking, nourish and enhance our ways of feeling and thinking. Human thinking, however pure and abstract, does not occur without the aid of sensuous activity. Even the dry and prudent analysis of historical text requires the sharp adjustment of perception. The aim of this conference is to find ways to connect theory with practice that opens to skillful, expedite, philosophical activity. If we become aware of such reciprocity of mind and activity, the work of philosophy creates an ongoing changes of perspective consisting of different things and their relations.
