Spinoza Chair Department of Philosophy
Since 1995, the Philosophy Department of the University of Amsterdam has annually appointed a foreign philosopher to the Spinoza chair. As part of the appointment, the Spinoza professor gives a number of lectures intended for a broad audience that wants to stay informed about contemporary developments in philosophy.
Spinoza Chair 2021: Robert Brandom
Prof. Robert Brandom holds the Spinoza Chair at the Department of Philosophy in the Faculty of Humanities during the second term of the academic year 2020-2021. Prof. Brandom - Distinguished Professor of Philosophy and Fellow of the Center for Philosophy of Science at the University of Pittsburgh - will be delivering the Spinoza Lectures under the title of Fetishism, Anti-Authoritarianism, and the Second Enlightenment: Rorty and Hegel on Representation and Reality.
Both lectures will take place online via Zoom. You can register now; you will receive the link to the Zoom meeting a couple of days in advance.
