2024 Pharos Philosophy Days
Vrijeme i Tok u Filozofiji, Kulturi, i Znanosti
Stari Grad na Hvaru otvara svoja vrata (poziv) za drugi Farski filozofski simpozij, koji će se održati od 30.04. do 03.05. kako bi istražio temu 2024. „Vrijeme i tok“. Potpuni trodnevni program događanja uključuje koncert Oskara Longyke, umjetničke izložbe Neli Ružić i Viktora Popovića, recital Igorab Pare i Zorana Kelave, filmske premijere, otkrivanje i degustaciju starogrčke kuhinje, predstavljanja knjiga, dječje radionice i dvodnevne rasprave s međunarodnim filozofima i akademicima. Sa zadovoljstvom ugošćujemo autora i novinara Krešimira Mišaka, poznatog po talk showu Na rubu znanosti. UNESCO-ov grad Stari Grad, najstariji grad u Hrvatskoj, idealan je za filozofsko istraživanje ‘Vremena i toka’. Njegove srednjovjekovne kamene ulice, koje vijugaju starogrčkim krajolikom,
naseljene su kontinuirano od 384. pr. Stari Grad je neksus vremena, njegova živopisna sadašnjost prožeta je poviješću prošlih života i civilizacija, a istovremeno ostaje otvorena za nova iskustva budućnosti. Događanja će se održati u Palači Biankini – Muzeju Starog Grada, Dvorcu Tvrdalj Petra Hektorovića, Dominikanskom samostanu sv. Petra, Arheološkom lokalitetu Pharos i Gradskoj njižnici i čitaonici Stari Grad. Svi ste dobrodošli!
Stari Grad will open its doors for the second annual Philosophy Days - Pharos Symposium, from April 30th to May 3rd, to explore the 2024 theme of ‘Time and Flux’. The full, three-day programme of events includes a concert of Oskar Longyka, art exhibitions of Neli Ružić and Viktor Popović, film premiers, a recital by Igor Paro and Zoran Kelava, a discovery and tasting of ancient Greek cookery, book presentations, children’s workshops and two-day discourses with international philosophers and academics. We are delighted to host a presentation by author and journalist Krešimir Mišak, well-known for his talk show Na rubu znanosti, ‘On the edge of science’. The UNESCO city of Stari Grad, the oldest city in Croatia, is well-suited for a philosophical exploration of ‘Time and Flux’. Its medieval stone streets, which wind across an ancient Greek landscape, have been inhabited continuously since 384 BC. Stari Grad is a nexus of Time, its vibrant present-time is thick with the history of past lives and civilisations whilst remaining open to new experiences of the future. The events will be held in the Biankini Palace - Museum of Stari Grad, Petar Hektorović’s Tvrdalj Castle, the Dominican Monastery of St Peter, The Pharos Archaeological Remete Garden and the Stari Grad Library - Čitaonica.
The theme for the 2024 edition:
“TIME AND FLUX" IN SCIENCE, PHILOSOPHY AND CULTURE
HEU FUGIUNT FLUXU NON REDEUNTE DIES
"Alas! The days flow by like waves, never to return"
Stari Grad Philosophy Days invites philosophers to share their views on “Time and Flux” from scientific, metaphysical and/or existential perspectives in a brief abstract (~100 words). Deadline for sending abstracts is 29 February 2024.
The Philosophy Symposium in Stari Grad on the island of Hvar is conceived as an open gathering place, where philosophers, philosophy students and fellow travelers in the tradition of the Greek Socratic symposium share their ideas. The single guiding principle of the symposium is to freely reflect and critically engage with differing ideas.
Scholars and students across various fields are welcome to participate in the
2024 symposium, delving into discussions on Time and Flux. This four-day event is designed as an inclusive dialogue, spanning from the history of philosophy to the realms of theoretical physics, aiming to explore potential solutions to the pressing challenges faced by humanity and society today.
Thinking and articulating time and its passage today, after fundamental discoveries in physics (and especially after Einstein and his theory of relativity), is possible from several standpoints. Theoretical reflections on time are as indispensable in the latest research of theoretical physicists as the interpretations of "metaphysical time" by philosophers over the course of history. What is more, for humanity, certainly the most important aspect of time and temporality is "existential time" as a specific and essential form of human existence. Transience and irreversibility, the finality of "human time," is not only a philosophical question but also the most personal question in need of an answer.
“Time and Flux in Science, Philosophy and Culture,” will reflect philosophically on Time and Flux from various angles: the scientific, the metaphysical and "existential time" (as a specific and essential form within human existence), and include ideas about Time and Flux from other disciplines such as biology, geology, chemistry.
Today's UNESCO-protected Stari Grad and the Ager are founded by the Greeks from the Aegean island Páros as its colony of Pharos in 384 BC. Stari Grad, the oldest Croatian town with continued inhabitation since its founding in 384 BC, has ancient Greek roots and is Aristotle's peer. Time and Flux and the Biankini Palace, now museum and host of the 2nd Pharos Philosophy Symposium, are organically intertwined with Stari Grad. Petar Hektorović's compassion for the irreversibility of time is written in stone in his Renaissance Tvrdalj Castle: Heu fugiunt fluxu non redeunte dies, ‘Alas! The days flow by like waves, never to return’.
