Description:

 

The Blended Intensive Programme „Practical knowledge in Philosophy: Affectivity, Skills and Knowing How“(2) intends to highlight a kind of philosophy which, beyond its theoretical impulses, was born out of a need to react to immediate problems; before reflecting on complex structures of reality, it chooses rather to describe the concrete relationships with things and everyday life activities. It involves therefore practical knowledge – a type of knowledge that it is able to account for its own foundation and relate to a theoretical discourse. But in its core, practical knowledge remains a “mystery” of the body situated in the world. The irreducibility of practical knowledge puts the embodied agent in connection with the world and sheds light on its dimensions and coordinates.
