Philomobile

Philomobile is a project designed for those who would like to explore and study philosophy in situ. We set two goals for such a philosophical endeavor: to recreate the conditions of the past on site within the context of our own times and to explore the other aspects of the epoch and the spirit of the times, in which philosophers lived. Some of these aspects are art, literature, architecture, science and religion. Philomobile projects are designed both for those who are interested in the adventure of studying philosophy on the road. All Philomobile projects have a class component led by a professor and a sightseeing component led by a tour guide, both of which are integrated. While studying the works of philosophers, we often forget the context in and through which they were created. This context has to do with the places where they lived, the historical conditions of their times, and the people of these times, and it is important to study them as much as it is to study their biographies from books. Please join us in these adventures.
