Young Scholars Workshop 2012

April 5th-6th, 2012

The 3rd Annual Young Scholars Workshop consisted of the public PAL event, “Philosophy, Literature and Film: Two Lectures by James Conant and Cora Diamond.” The following day there was a closed all-day workshop from 9am to 6pm, limited to 20 invited participants (from Duke and other universities, and including James Conant and Cora Diamond). Participants discussed texts by James Conant, Cora Diamond, Thomas Pfau (German, Duke) and Toril Moi (Literature, Duke). Participation in the workshop was by invitation only. Unfortunately budget constrictions made it impossible for PAL to invite a larger audience to the workshop.
