Organizers: Heather Jones
Description:
Recent philosophical interest in friendship and community has
highlighted the important though ambiguous role played by
relationships in Western thought. More particularly, among such
diverse thinkers as Cavell, Blanchot and Derrida, the rethinking of
friendship has enabled a reassessment of the writing, theory, and
self-understanding that characterise modernity.
In the light of such concern, this two-day conference aims to consider the case of Coleridge and his political journal The Friend (1809-10, 3rd ed. 1818).
