Tuesday 21 November 2023, 5:30pm - 7pm
Leonard Wolfson Auditorium, Wolfson College

Join us for the final OCLW Evening Lecture of Michaelmas Term with speaker Clare Carlisle.

Drawing on her experience as a biographer of Kierkegaard and George Eliot, Clare's lecture will examine some philosophical questions arising from life-writing: what is the truth, meaning and value of a human life?  How does the work of writing a life help us to confront these questions? 

Clare Carlisle is Professor of Philosophy at King's College London.  She is the author of seven books, including two biographies: Philosopher of the Heart: The Restless Life of Søren Kierkegaard (Penguin/FSG, 2019) and The Marriage Question: George Eliot's Double Life (Penguin/FSG, 2023).

This event will take place in the Leonard Wolfson Auditorium (LWA) (accessibility information).
