January News for PEL Citizens and Not School

January 2, 2016 by Nathan Hanks Leave a Comment

Hey, folks! Nathan Hanks here, with what's happening in the Partially Examined Life's Citizens' Forum and Not School this January. Members are starting new group proposals and you can join in the discussion this new year. You may be interested in one of these discussions:

  • Introduction to Analytic Philosophy
  • Hegel's Science of Logic
  • Homo Sacer by Giorgio Agamben (Ch. 4–8)
  • Contingency, Hegemony, and Universality by Laclau, Zizek, Butler (Ch. 5)
  • French Theory by Francois Cusset
  • Consciousness Explained by Daniel Dennett

If any of these sound interesting, jump into The Forum, say hello, and join other PEL members for the read. Once there are enough people on board for the proposal, you'll have your own Not School Group. Most groups are between 2–4 people and calls are usually set up over Skype or Hangouts for a conversation, or you can just chat in your Not School Group's forum about whatever is of interest.

Also, members can post Forum Topics. If you want an ongoing low-commitment approach to discussion, then a quick topic in the Citizen's Forum is the way to go. "Can a trash compactor want something?'

If you want to become a PEL member, just sign up. It's quick and easy plus you get a lot of perks: there's Bonus Audio on a private Citizens' Feed, full ad-free episodes (past and present), access to the excellent member community and Not School, PLUS you'll be supporting the good people who make this podcast.

I'd like to hear from you if you ideas, questions, or suggestions for Not School; feel free to email me:
Nathan@partiallyexaminedlife.com. Thanks for your time, philosophiles.
Happy Reading!

Nathan

About The Partially Examined Life

The Partially Examined Life is a philosophy podcast by some guys who were at one point set on doing philosophy for a living but then thought better of it. Each episode, we pick a text and chat about it with some balance between insight and flippancy. You don’t have to know any philosophy, or even to have read the text we’re talking about to (mostly) follow and (hopefully) enjoy the discussion

Become a PEL Citizen!

As a PEL Citizen, you’ll have access to a private social community of philosophers, thinkers, and other partial examiners where you can join or initiate discussion groups dedicated to particular readings, participate in lively forums, arrange online meet-ups for impromptu seminars, and more. PEL Citizens also have free access to podcast transcripts, guided readings, episode guides, PEL music, and other citizen-exclusive material. Click here to join.
