🌷 - "Salut: perspectives philosophiques, perspectives religieuses"🌞🌸✨
PROGRAMME ︎
📍 Sorbonne, Paris
📅 March 21-22, 2025
What does salvation mean? How has it been understood in philosophy and religion? These questions have shaped centuries of thought—and remain as relevant as ever today. In a time of uncertainty and transformation, this colloquium invites reflection on how different traditions have approached salvation, from antiquity to the present.
What struck me most about the SALUT conference is how salus, salvation, and soteria ✨ opened up access to new insights in completely unexpected places 🔍 and sparked surprising interactions in familiar ones 🏛️ — and we had a wonderful time together, too! 💫📚🍷🍰🌸 Merci les collègues!
⚔️️ - The workshop Divination et Salut à Travers les Siècles, which I am co-organizing with Nathan Fraikin (EPHE), will be taking place soon. This event will explore the fascinating themes of divination and salvation across various historical periods, offering new insights into these timeless practices and beliefs.
☄️ - Excited to host in Paris (EPHE) this captivating talk by George van Kooten on salvation through Philosophy ! 🎙️
