Public Talks of the Centre for Cultural Inquiry

Winter semester 23/24

The weekly ZKF Public Talks are our major forum for exchanging ideas about ongoing research and exciting topics. We seek to maintain a good balance between academic originality and general relevance. After the lectures and discussions, there is an opportunity for social gathering and informal conversation. Citizens, staff and students are very welcome!

Some of the Talks have been recorded by KIM Lecture Recordings.

Generally on Wednesdays, 5:30:00-7:00 p.m., Bischofsvilla + Zoom (unless otherwise indicated)
