Studium Generale lunch lecture - Descartes, think about it! Dr. Johnny Søraker

Everybody knows Descartes’s famous I think therefore I am, but what does this actually mean and how did he arrive at this one-liner? Why is he regarded as one of the most revolutionary philosophers? Johnny Søraker will argue that it is a shame that this phrase has become a cliché, because it not only holds the key to understanding modern philosophy, it also gave rise to challenging problems in science.

Dr. Johnny Søraker is assistant professor at the department of philosophy (UT).

Location: Gallery - Design Lab.
