What's wrong with death? Sophia Club live philosophy with Natasha Mitchell and guests
Description
When you're alive, the idea of dying feels weird, remote, alien. Yet it's the one experience we will all have. Can philosophy help us make sense of that weirdness? What can talking about death and dying teach us about living? Natasha Mitchell is joined by a philosopher, funeral director, and a First Nations' songman for an uplifting, insightful conversation on death.
This event is part of the Sophia Club live philosophy event series, presented by Aeon Media, publishers of Aeon and Psyche.
