TALK & TEA: THE LAZY PHILOSOPHER’S GUIDE TO SOLITUDE

Sunday August 27, 2023 at 14:00 to 16:00

Another in a series of lectures by our Philosophy Tutor Darren for anyone who would like to enrich their lives by hearing a philosophical perspective on various topics.
What is the difference between loneliness and solitude?  Have you ever felt lonely in a crowd? Making reference to Existentialist philosophiser Paul Tillich; being in a body means being alone, and Michelle de Montaigne; ‘happiness depends on ourselves’ and that we ought to be content with being ‘really and truly alone’, we will explore the benefits of solitude.
