Iain McGilchrist - The Good, The Beautiful and The True

iain mcgilchrist poster

In this two-day event at the Sheldonian Theatre in Oxford, Dr Iain McGilchrist will explore The Good, the Beautiful and the True.

With an increasingly exclusive reliance on the left hemispheric way of being in the world, to the exclusion of the more intelligent and insightful way of being of the right hemisphere, our modern age fails to understand the concepts of the good, the beautiful and the true, and takes them to be ancient ideals that are now irrelevant – or even meaningless.

Across two days of lectures and reflection, a panel discussion, and an audience Q&A, Dr McGilchrist will argue that we dismiss the good, the beautiful and the true at our peril: their intrinsic nature is woven into the very fabric of the cosmos itself.

He has invited guest speakers, physicist and neuroscientist Dr Alex Gómez-Marín, philosopher and specialist in the Ancient Greek world and author of Why Plato Matters Now Professor Angie Hobbs, and director of the Scientific and Medical Network David Lorimer, to share their views.
