The Tulane German Philosophy Workshop is a forum for the discussion of contemporary work that engages with the German philosophical tradition (broadly understood).
Talks are held on select Fridays from 4:00-6:00 pm. We provide updates about the location of each event in email reminders sent out a few days before it takes place. Talks are not read-ahead and generally consist of a 45-minute presentation followed by a discussion.
