I UFRN International Philosophy Seminar

With the theme: “Man and space”, the 1st International Philosophy Seminar at UFRN takes place on the 28th, 29th and 30th of November, starting at 3pm, in Auditorium “D” at CCHLA.
The event proposes a discussion about the concepts involved in the relationship between man and his different ways of inhabiting and building a world, from the point of view of the history of metaphysics and its resonances in contemporary thought, problematizing the way of human beings in relation to the way in which their world is constituted, man's relationship with nature and with himself, as well as current possibilities and their perspectives for transformation arising from other areas of knowledge in dialogue with the philosophical tradition.
