Create News 40 – Philosophical Dialogue and Socially Engaged Art
Create News Periodical
Dr Robert Grant is a philosopher, educator and author who has in recent years contributed to What Does He Need?, a long-term collaborative project exploring how men and boys are shaped by and influence the world they live in. He is a founder member of Philosophy Ireland. He wrote, directed, and presented a documentary for RTE television about teaching philosophy in schools and recently published his first book, a children’s novel aimed at bringing philosophy to young people. We asked Rob to expand on the use of philosophical listening and dialogue as it applies to collaborative, socially engaged arts, in this, our fortieth issue of Create News.
