SUMMARY:Kairos: Radical Romanticism
DESCRIPTION:The library is sponsoring a series of discussions with Denis 
 Sweet\, a former teacher at Bates College\, investigating our current 
 moment by making use of contemporary and classic writings in literature\, 
 social criticism\, biology\, and philosophy.  This session of meetings will 
 take place on Tuesday mornings at 10AM in the library's Howard Room from 
 February 3 to April 28.  \n\nKairos – a time of impending danger and 
 instability balanced on a knife’s edge that can tip into disaster or into 
 a new resolution. Kairos is a time that demands clarity of mind - our time. 
 To gird ourselves\, we study foundational classic and contemporary writings 
 in philosophy\, literature\, social criticism\, and ecology.\n\nRadical 
 Romanticism\nRadical Romantic writers and artists in Germany from around 
 1790-1820 expanded the sense of what it means to be human.  They introduced 
 the unconscious and the uncanny\, and discovered profound meaning in 
 nature. We will discuss writings by Novalis\, Wackenroder\, Friedrich 
 Schlegel\, Tieck\, Kleist and E.T.A. Hoffmann\, and paintings by Caspar 
 David Friedrich\, with the films Pan's Labyrinth and Andrei Rublev. \n\nTo 
 facilitate discussion\, the number of participants is limited to twelve. 
 Registration can be done through the library's online calendar. For more 
 information\, please email Assistant Director Kayleigh Thomas at 
 kayleigh.thomas@bhpl.net or call 374-5515. \n
