The philosopher and essayist Marina Garcés will present this Wednesday, June 6, her book 'Ciudad Princesa' in the hemicycle of the Faculty of Letters at 7:00 p.m.
In his work, Garcés makes a first-person account in which a series of political experiences are told between October 1996 and October 2017, from the eviction of the Princesa cinema in Barcelona to the referendum on October 1.
'Ciudad Princesa' is a city chronicle that gathers a vision of what social movements have been that awoke in post-Olympic Barcelona and other European cities, and that were connected to the protests and movements of the global world until today.
Marina Garcés, Professor of Philosophy at the Uni versity of Zaragoza, is a promoter of the Espai en Blanc collective project of critical and experimental thinking.
One of the central concepts of his thinking is what is common in the way of developing alternatives to face current crises.
Defends philosophy as a way of life, an art that is born on the street and continues without interruption in intimate and invisible spaces.
This activity, which will be presented by Alicia Poza and Antonio J. Ubero, closes the cycle of contemporary thinkers' De / Construyendo`, whose main objective has been to make visible the contributions of women to current thinking from various cultural areas: poetry, essay, novel, history and philosophy.
