„Der bestirnte Himmel über mir“ – Omri Boehm, Daniel Kehlmann und Immanuel Kant

In the organizer's words:

German (D. Kehlmann and W. Eilenberger) | English without translation (O. Boehm)

How can a philosopher born in 1724 significantly influence our thinking today? 300 years after his birth in Königsberg, writer Daniel Kehlmann (most recently "Lichtspiel") and philosopher Omri Boehm ("Radical Universalism") meet to talk about Immanuel Kant. In Der bestirnte Himmel über mir, they encounter him as a contemporary who can still provide us with important answers today. In doing so, they focus on key contemporary issues: from reason and enlightenment to racism and colonialism; from space and time to freedom, art, justice and the problem of evil; from science to faith, from the self to God. In this way, they provide an original and light-footed approach to the world of thought of the great philosopher and give orientation in a confusing present. Moderator: Wolfram Eilenberger
