The New Mandarinate School offers public education in the humanities and social sciences. Lecture V in our 10-part lecture series is entitled Existentialism – value, meaning & relevance. The lecture explores the history and development of existentialism within modernity, why and in what ways this tradition remains valuable to us and how it is relevant to understanding and responding to the problems we confront as a world today.

This event is open to all interested adults. Lecture booklets will be available for sale on the night and food and refreshments will be provided. Only 25 seats available! Tickets available on the Humanitix website.
