Salon

Would you like to hear Matti Juntunen lecture once more? Matti Juntunen, a philosopher who died in the autumn of 1979 at just 36 years of age, was a phenomenologist and Marxist. On the Jyväskylä campus, he made an impact with his carefully prepared lectures and presentations, which he often delivered freely, frequently without notes, and which attracted audiences across disciplinary boundaries. We are starting November's philosophical salon at Writers' House by listening to Matti Juntunen's half-hour long introduction from the 1970s. It is a sound recording from his era and of the speaker before an audience, on the subject of "the role of consciousness in Marx's Capital". The evening's reminiscent discussion will be led by Esa Sironen and Petri Kuhmonen. The event, organized by Central Finland Writers, has free admission. Welcome to listen and comment!
