Forklaringen skal bl.a. søges i hans dybtgående eksistensanalyser og profetiske fornemmelse for menneskets situation i en moderne, foranderlig verden. Men hvem var han mon egentlig, denne uudgrundelige magister, der i dag har opnået global navnkundighed, men selv aldrig nåede længere sydpå end til Berlin? Og hvordan kan man komme ind i hans forfatterskab - og nogenlunde helskindet ud igen? Foredraget forsøger sig med nogle svar og former sig derved som en biografisk introduktion til Kierkegaards forfatterskab og tankeverden. Efter foredraget står det enhver frit for at spørge om alt lige fra det absolutte paradoks til farven på Kierkegaards foretrukne paraply. Kort om kunsteren: Foredraget vil blive holdt af Joakim Garff (f. 1960), som i år 2000 skrev en biografi om Kierkegaard, - SAK - der er blevet en slags klassiker. Han er i det daglige lektor på Søren Kierkegaard Forskningscenteret.
Kort om temaet Kierkegaard: Mange mener, at den danske filosof, forfatter og debattør er mere aktuel end nogensinde. Men hvad er kernen i hans tænkning og omfattende forfatterskab? Det stiller vi skarpt på gennem denne række af foredrag, gennem comedy, og ved at give dig muligheden for selv at stifte bekendtskab med Kierkegaards tekster. Entré: 30 kr. i døren. 25 kr. i forsalg

Valby Bibliotek, Annexstræde 2, Valby (amberwitch)… (more) An evening with 2012 Man Booker shortlisted author, Alison Moore at Walton library A writer’s dream has come true for Alison Moore. Her debut novel, The Lighthouse, has been shortlisted for the Man Booker Prize 2012. Published by Salt Publishing, an independent publisher based in Norfolk, the novel is described as “thrilling”, “spare” and “unsettling” by various literary reviewers. It is the tale of an ordinary, inconspicuous man which shows how terrible things can happen in the most unexpected ways. It examines grief, loss, rejection and abandonment and the central question of the hurt involved in leaving and being left. The ending is “ambiguous”, “thrilling” and “brutal”.
Alison’s short stories have been published in various anthologies including Best British Short Stories 2011. She has been shortlisted for the Bridport Prize and the Scott Prize and won first prize in the novella category of the The New Writer Prose and Poetry Prizes.
She will be discussing her first novel, the impact of the Man Booker Prize shortlisting on her life and her writing and will be answering questions from the audience.
