SLAVOJ ŽIŽEK: FÜR EUROPA (SLAVOJ ŽIŽEK: FOR EUROPE)

why is it worth fighting for European heritage

The controversial Slovenian philosopher Slavoj Žižek, whose adaptation of «Antigone» can be seen at the Residenztheater, will address this question in his lecture on December 6 at the Residenztheater. Based on the beginning of the Communist Manifesto «A spectre is haunting Europe», he asks: Couldn't we also characterize today's public perception of «Europe» in the same way? A spectre is haunting the world - the spectre of Eurocentrism.


The lecture will be held in English without translation.
