Meeting: 24th January
The reading for our next meeting on Tuesday 24th January, 5 pm, is:
Georges Sorel, 'Letter to Daniel Halévy' (from Reflections on Violence)
and
Pierro Gobetti, 'Our Faith' (from On Liberal Revolution)
Photocopies of these texts are now available from my pigeon-hole (marked 'C. Hadjiyiannis') in the secretaries' office, 6th floor, David Hume Tower.
In the meantime, a good introductory essay to Gobetti's brand of liberalism can be found here. And here's Jennings' introduction to Sorel's Reflections on Violence, providing useful information on the context of Sorel's work and on the author's philosophical influences, etc.
