In this episode of WHY: Philosophical Discussions About Everyday Life, host Jack Russell Weinstein speaks with Richard Kearney, a distinguished philosopher and author of Touch: Recovering Our Most Vital Sense.
Z filozofem Adamem Workowskim rozmawiamy o trzeciej drodze między teizmem i ateizmem. Stworzył tę koncepcję wybitnyi filozof Richard Kearney i nazwał ją „anateizm”. Teizm: nie. Według Kearneya, Bóg umarł. Umarł Bóg władca, twórca planu kosmicznego. Ateizm (choć utorował drogę dla nowej opowieści o Bogu) też nie: zwłaszcza ten walczący z transcendencją, mówiący o Bogu jako o pasożycie zatruwającym nasze umysły. Anateizm? Bóg po Bogu? Może to propozycja, której wielu, wiele z nas poszukuje? Sprawdźmy. Zapraszam Państwa! Foto: Rafał Masłow

In this month's ARINS podcast, host Rory Montgomery is joined by Dr Philip McGuinness lecturer in the Department of Computing Science and Mathematics at Dundalk Institute of Technology to discuss the results of the local elections in Northern Ireland held on 18 May. In the elections to eleven councils across Northern Ireland the nationalist bloc gained a majority of the vote in both Belfast and L/Derry for the first time with Sinn Fein winning a larger than expected victory finding itself the largest party in six of the eleven councils with a 39 seat increase to 144 of 462 seats. The DUP retained its 122 council seats, and asserted a mandate to pursue its conditions to return to Stormont. The Alliance Party won 14 seats taking its total to 67 seats promising delivery over drama. The results demonstrate that the local electoral landscape in Northern Ireland is changing. The geographical shorthand of east and west of the river Bann no longer fits. While discussions about demographic changes and a diminishing unionist base go some way to explain the differential turnout between nationalists and unionists, McGuinness can better help us navigate our way through these local election result findings and follow on political puzzles. Philip McGuinness is a lecturer in the Department of Computing Science and Mathematics at Dundalk Institute of Technology. He studied at Athlone RTC, Trinity College Dublin, and Queen's University Belfast. His commentaries on Irish culture and politics have been published in the Times Literary Supplement, Irish Studies Review, Fortnight and the Irish dailies. He co-edited John Toland's Christianity Not Mysterious: Text, Associated Works and Critical Essays with Alan Harrison and Richard Kearney, see https://www.lilliputpress.ie/product/john-tolands-christianity-not-mysterious-text-associated-works-and-critical-essays. He writes regularly about Northern Ireland politics on Sluggerotoole https://www.sluggerotoole.com/author/philip-mcguinness/ This is episode 23 of a podcast series that provides evidence-based research and analysis on the most significant questions of policy and public debate facing the island of Ireland, north and south. Host Rory Montgomery, MRIA, talks to authors of articles on topics such as cross border health co-operation; the need to regulate social media in referendums, education, cultural affairs and constitutional questions and the imperative for good data and the need to carry out impartial research. ARINS: Analysing and Researching Ireland North and South brings together experts to provide evidence-based research and analysis on the most significant questions of policy and public debate facing the island of Ireland, north and south. The project publishes, facilitates and disseminates research on the challenges and opportunities presented to the island in a post-Brexit context, with the intention of contributing to an informed public discourse.

Featuring Richard Kearney with Stanton Wortham (host) and Colleen Griffith (commentator). In our current era of the pandemic and of social distancing, we are confronted with the challenges of prolonged periods without contact. In this episode, Richard Kearney claims that the basic human need for touch has never been so prevalent as it is today. Tune in to consider the reasons why touch is arguably our most important and most neglected human sense.
In this episode, I interview Richard Kearney, professor of philosophy at Boston College, about his most recent book, Touch: Recovering Our Most Vital Sense. out through Columbia University Press. The basic premise of Touch is twofold: on the one hand, we have lost touch with our most basic sense, that of touch, the tactile; on the other hand, we must bring touch back to our lives. Kearney weaves together investigations of the centrality of touch that span the history of philosophy with discussions of its role in modern therapies and reflections on cultural tactility. Making the case for the complementarity of touch and technology, this book is a passionate plea to recover a tangible sense of community and the joys of life with others. Britt Edelen is a Ph.D. student in English at Duke University. He focuses on modernism and the relationship(s) between language, philosophy, and literature.

One of the first things we lost as the Covid pandemic began was the handshake. It foreshadowed what would follow in the months ahead: Social distancing, the loss of human touch and our longing for the physical presence of others. As we began living an increasingly disembodied existence on Zoom meetings and video calls with friends and family, many of us had a similar realization: The tactile sensation cannot be replaced with vision and sound.Historically, much of philosophy downgraded the importance of touch. According to Plato it was vision that brought us closer to the divine, the realm of ideas and reason. Touch, on the other hand, connected us to our lesser, carnal, animal nature. Aristotle, as usual, had a different take from Plato. For him touch was the most important and philosophical of the senses. So what does this philosophical disagreement teach us about the nature of touch? And is the current trend to “live on the internet” the result of a technological accident, or the culmination of a culture that prioritises vision while neglecting our embodied nature? Has the pandemic confirmed the importance of physical presence and touch as part of a good social life? And what can Ancient Greek medicine teach us about the role of touch in healing? Richard Kearney holds the Charles B. Seelig Chair of Philosophy at Boston College.He is extremely prolific, the author of over 24 books on European philosophy and literature (including two novels and a volume of poetry) and has edited or co-edited 21 more.Long before the pandemic, he had already started work on a project around the philosophy of touch, resulting in the publication of his book Touch: Recovering our Most Vital Sense, which has just been published. The book is a testament to how philosophy can capture something important about our cultural moment, even before events themselves make it explicit to the rest of us. Guardian pieces referenced: Lost touch: how a year without hugs affects our mental healthI desperately miss human touch. Science may explain why.

A quick tip from me about turning large text files into portable mp3's. If you missed this link below, here it is again - CBC's Best of Ideas and the three part interview with Richard Kearney. Look for the mp3 files entitled "The God who May Be." Please treat yourself to a wealth of superb insights and refreshing ideas by hearing what he has to say about his religion of the imagination. As you hear it, keep in mind what Mister Tee wrote, and what you may have heard Tracy Hickman say on the recent Round Table Episode. The CBC page is updated every monday, so if you don't see the files there please search their archives. Episode 29 will explore email responses to Mister Tee's letter in IDDFOS #27 - Thus far we have responses from Camera Guy and Charon, but there's still time for YOU to add your thoughts. Episode 30 will return to the Thirty Theses. I'll be examining those on my own until then, hopefully so that I can discuss one or two points about them without starting at zero :) If you give them a read, and want to comment as well, Please do!
