The Lyceum Movement: Existentialism for the 21st Century (session 4 of 4)

  • Gravitate Coworking (downtown) 500 Locust Street Des Moines, IA, 50309 United States (map)

Session 2: Gabriel Marcel on Technology and the Mystery of Being Present

One of the most significant religious existentialists, the French philosopher

Gabriel Marcel argues that humanity is now at the mercy of its technology:

we serve what is supposed to serve us. This session will examine why he

believes that we fall into the trap of technology and how we should open

ourselves to a great mystery: the mystery of being present to ourselves, the

people around us, our creativity, and existence itself.

This series will take place over four sessions in April. Tickets are available for individual sessions or for the entire series at a discount.
