🚩This September we will launch our football edition, PVA 14🚩
We’ve included Zizou by @simoncritchley4, an excerpt from What We Think about When We Think About Football.
Stay on the ball! PVA 14 is now available to preorder 👉 https://t.co/2mosneTgPU
In Zizou, Critchley outlines the poetics of the football experience through the film Zidane: A 21st Century Portrait (2006) by artists Douglas Gordon and Philippe Parreno. ⚽️
We are heartbroken to announce the death of Richard J. Bernstein, Vera List Professor of Philosophy, on July 4, 2022.
Prof. Bernstein taught philosophy for 70 years. We are forever grateful that he spent 33 of those years with us at @TheNewSchool.
More on his life & work soon.

📖 An excellent timely heartfelt essay by Simon Critchley .@nytimes today
“It is perhaps time to open our arms.”
Read it.

Beautiful from @simoncritchley4 :
"It is not the cool, skeptical, rational doubt of the philosopher in his study. It is visceral, existential doubt that leaves us feeling derelict and abandoned. This can be a doubt of others and the benevolence of their intentions, ... "
"To philosophize is to learn how to die." @simoncritchley4 & I explore what it means to accept mortality, and the role philosophy, religion, & rituals (spiritual & secular) play in helping us do so. It's not about the afterlife (science can't answer that). https://t.co/bT5Dp4ifXJ
What is a good death? How do you prepare? I talk with philosopher @simoncritchley4, hospital & cancer center chaplains, and @ThresholdChoir member Leigh Davis to understand our relationship with death & how to ease that final transition. https://t.co/bT5Dp4ifXJ @HarvardDivinity
