Netzwerktreffen GRK 2686 & globale° – Festival für grenzüberschreitende Literatur
Lecture as part of the Colloquium Contradiction Studies
coherence in thought
“The imperative of non-contradiction generally produces a coherence in thought that is often at odds with social complexities.”
Yan Suarsana
every day
“Living in contradictions is what we experience every day. Why do we know so little about it?”
Gisela Febel
ideal of a contradiction-free world
“Science has long been animated by the ideal of a contradiction-free world in which logical orders could merge with society, politics, culture and language. In the GRC Contradiction Studies we are working on ways of describing the multiplicity and complexity, the danger and beauty of our worlds that clearly go beyond concepts of freedom from contradiction.”
Michi Knecht
diversity and plurality
“Join us to create more diversity and plurality in knowledge production.”
Gisela Febel
decolonial scholarship
“Creating decentralizing and decolonizing scholarship on contradiction, contradictory phenomena, and contradicting processes is a challenging task.”
