Teaching Workshop: Advanced Philosophical Workshop 5

The workshop aims to provide useful tools for cross-cultural comparing of ideas, especially philosophical ideas. The aim is twofold: on the one hand, to come into contact with certain texts and ideas with certain texts and ideas from a non-Western culture; on the other hand, to compare and integrate these ideas with the knowledge already acquired during the three-year course. The workshop makes it possible to acquire skills related to different professional profiles, including, first and foremost, that of cultural mediator.
