The lecture will propose a proof by snow. Not by real snow, but by the appearance of snowing in art. Six works of art will be considered (by Pieter Bruegel the Elder, Miroslav Holub, Adalbert Stifter, Sasha Petrovic, James Joyce and Wallace Stevens). Some works of art may deliver to the given regime of reality an effect similar to a sudden short-circuit somewhere at its periphery that induces a widespread blackout and causes the entire system to crash irreversibly. The lecture will propose a proof by snow. Some works of art open us to experience the hidden and forgotten discrepancy between unquestionable and unanswerable, between solely accessible and perpetually inaccessible, between the absolute authority of the only reality known to us and its irreducible irrevocable alterity. The lecture will propose a proof by snow. </video> <video> Interview with an EGS student Description: This autumn in Valletta, Malta, our dean of the division of philosophy, art & critical thought, Christopher Fynsk, had a privilege of sitting down with our student, Katherine Bachner, for an insightful interview Valletta, Malta, October 2023 </video> <video> Isabelle Alfandary - Seduction Description: http://www.egs.edu Public Lecture May 30, 2024 Isabelle Alfandary - Seduction </video> <video> Nicholas Royle - David Bowie, Enid Blyton and the sun machine (book discussion) Description: Nicholas Royle - David Bowie, Enid Blyton and the sun machine (book discussion) December 7, 2023 Participants: Nicholas Royle, Christopher Fynsk, Elissa Marder, Michael Naas, Lars Iyer, and Nemanja Mitrović </video> <video> Catherine Malabou - Woke, Wokism, Reawakening: Différence Description: http://www.egs.edu Catherine Malabou, Professor at The European Graduate School / EGS.
