I've written a short piece on Aby Warburg's use of everyday photography to document the presence of ancient "Pathosformeln" (emotionally charged representations of the body) in his own time. Out both in IT and EN in a wonderful exhibition catalogue: https://t.co/Y4TppoVtEb

My faculty is hiring, among other positions, a position in European Political History since 1900 -- apply and circulate widely!

@RobertTalisse I generally agree with you, but I am a little ambivalent about it. As someone who's really good at time management, sometimes I do feel I am only good at it to cope with unrealistic expectations that are threatening to kill my intellectual creativity. See what I mean?

🟥 Today, academics in the Netherlands are striking to put pressure on the government to remove the devastating cuts to higher education that are still under discussion. Send solidarity! 🟥

🔴 Un barchino di ferro sta affondando ORA nel Mediterraneo centrale, circa 20 persone sono in acqua. Il nostro aereo Seabird è sulla scena. Abbiamo allertato tutti coloro che si trovano nelle vicinanze e le autorità competenti. Devono essere soccorsi e salvati subito!

@RobertTalisse Great opportunity for philosophy teachers there

[Tullio Viola @tullioviola]

These two guys have made my teaching so much better. Deeply grateful.

@colvieux Affitti vergognosi, senz'altro. Ma anche stipendi vergognosi.

[Tullio Viola @tullioviola]

@ohara_j Congratulazioni, João!! Bellissima notizia

[Tullio Viola @tullioviola]

Is academic twitter dead? Only things I still see on this site are spam and mostly low-quality politics posts.

[Tullio Viola @tullioviola]

@chrisschuringa @FasosMaastricht I'll report back :)

[Tullio Viola @tullioviola]

Starting an intro to philosophy course next Monday @FasosMaastricht and I found this short text "On the Very Idea of Western Philosophy" by @chrisschuringa quite useful as a discussion prompt for students

A huge loss. A great scholar and a sweet human being. RIP

It is with great sadness that we report the death of our dear friend and colleague Robert Stern on 21 August 2024.
Bob was well known and respected around the world for both his outstanding scholarship and his kindness. He will be greatly missed.

@TuomasPernu @JMKuukkanen @UniOulu @Nature True. But one could start by valuing less the quantity of output and focus more on quality

[Jouni-Matti Kuukkanen @JMKuukkanen]

This is the challenge #1 in universities: "Researchers and other knowledge workers need to slow down and spend more time thinking, to focus on maintaining and improving quality in their work."

@UniOulu soon chooses a new rector. This will be my question to candidates.
