Thinking Together Through Writing
Thomas Wild and Jana Schmidt with Jana Bacevic
How do texts become intermediary objects of thought? In this event, Thomas Wild, Jana Schmidt, and Jana Bacevic will reflect on thinking together through engaging with writing. What happens in reading together, both in collectives such as reading groups but also in more ad-hoc situations? How do we resolve disagreements around interpretation? What can this teach us about the nature of thinking? The focus of this conversation will be on Hannah Arendt’s acceptance speech for the Lessing Prize (published in “Men in Dark Times”, 1968) to highlight the relational nature of thought and its evolution through both reading and writing.
