The Critical Inquiry research group is hosting a small-scale reading workshop dedicated to Evald Ilyenkov’s "Cosmology of the Spirit,” a self-described "philosophical-poetic phantasmagoria" written in the 1950s. Organised by research intern Carlos Drexhage, the workshop will examine Ilyenkov’s highly speculative investigation into the place of human thought and the idea of communism in the natural-historical evolution of the cosmos.
