Description

Probably the most famous living philosopher, Slavoj Zizek explores the concept of 'event', in the second in this new series of easily digestible philosophy What is really happening when something happens? Here, Slavoj Zizek, one of the world's greatest living philosophers, takes us on a trip which stops at different definitions of Event, and addresses fundamental questions such as- are all things connected? How much are we agents of our own fates? And in a world that's constantly changing, is anything new really happening? Drawing on references from Plato to arthouse cinema, the Big Bang to Buddhism, Event is a journey into philosophy at its most exciting.
