A New World View: Vienna’s Contribution to European Culture 1890-1935
The Bath Royal Literary & Scientific Institution (BRLSI) is holding a three day, online, Vienna Symposium from Friday 19 - Sunday 21 March and we thought you might be interested in circulating the details to the members of the British Wittgenstein Society? We held a similar event in 2019 which was a huge success.
We have nine online talks with outstanding speakers who will throw light on a turbulent and exciting period in European culture that had an influence we still feel today.
Stefan Zweig’s connection to Bath; music in secessionist Vienna; Freud and the genesis of psychoanalysis; the ground-breaking work of Wittgenstein; the influence of the Vienna Circle; modernist women writers on Vienna; the art of Oskar Kokoschka and how a new direction for architecture took root in the city all feature in our richly varied programme.
Please take a look at our website for the full programme and the booking link (via Eventbrite). Tickets cost £40 for the whole event (ie nine talks), with a 50% discount for students.
