Culture

About this event

Please join us this Sunday to discuss the philosophy of 'Culture', hosted by Nick. This includes 'Culture' in different societies, as a term in itself, and as we experience in our everyday lives. Sometimes visible only when we experience a different 'culture'. What's your view on culture? We will meet at the Captain Melville at 2pm for a 2:15pm start sharp Please note the new $5 mandatory donation entry fee (cash or transfer on day) to help with MeetUp subscription costs There is no pre-requisite preparation necessary, nor a philosophical background, all that is required is a curious mind. These discussions are both a Socrates Cafe style discussion and lively metaphysical dojo in the spirit of learning and friendly debate. We welcome your reflections on the topic, in addition feel free to question assumptions and be prepared to have your own assumptions questioned This event is also posted to the Philosophy Circle group Possible areas of discussion: • What is 'Culture'? What is it's function? • What are the most important aspects of culture? (eg language, art, stories? ), and is this common across cultures? • What is the biggest cultural misunderstanding you've come across? • Are there better and worse ways to express culture? • How does culture change over time? • Should culture be changed or preserved? If so, how? • Is cultural appropriation wrong? And it's open to any other questions or curiosities about this topic people might have on the day! Hope to see you there!
