Details
A seminar which will tackle the theme of “work” as recently featured in Beshara Magazine. As Richard Gault explored in his recent review of James Suzman’s book: “Work: A deep history, from the stone age to the age of robots”, our relationship to work shapes much of our world and warrants conscious and critical exploration. He asks:
‘How has it come to this, that we only recognise work as something we get paid for; that we do not emphasise its vital role in serving our soul, and that so much of what we do is of dubious real value? … One answer is simply that we have never been encouraged to ask these questions…’
On December 3rd at 3pm, Richard will be leading an open discussion on the topic. This is the first in a series of events drawing on material published in the magazine and will be a chance to exchange and expand ideas on pertinent issues of our time. The seminar is free of charge but you will need to register, and numbers will be limited.
