Details

What is it like to do philosophy in the dark? To grasp around, with our senses limited or entirely useless in describing the horrors around us? Maybe it isn’t much of a question – in fact, we might posit philosophy has already been doing exactly this for some time… Yet, there is something to be said with the efforts by some scholars in recent years to return and wrestle with the canon of horror and philosophy to engage in some critical evaluation of existing ideas about philosophical inquiry, the human subject and world.

All are welcome!
