Welcome
Since 1987 the Apeiron Society of Calgary has been promoting its stated objective—the practice of philosophy—by hosting fortnightly meetings in the Fall (September to December) and Winter (January to April) at which speakers put forth ideas for discussion. We will be returning to in-person talks at the Scandinavian Centre at 7:00 pm in October 2024. Please check our Program page. Anyone interested in becoming a member of Apeiron, or just learning more about the Society, is invited to write to the Board of Directors at [email protected] |
Next EventThe Apeiron Society is excited to announce our first two sessions of 2025! Mark Migotti of the University of Calgary and Stan Hall of our Apeiron Society will jointly deliver successive talks on Pre-Socratic Theories of Nature. Our sessions will be devoted to exploration and discussion of pre-Socratic theories of nature, with special attention to their continuing relevance to present speculation in science and metaphysics. On January 28, Stan Hall will introduce our key themes, while Mark Migotti will introduce us to the thinkers in the so-called Milesian school (Thales, Anaximander, and Anaximenes). On February 11, we will discuss the thought of Heraclitus, Parmenides, and Democritus. Please contact [email protected] to request more information.
