After a lengthy break that has seen the dawning of the dragon year and some promising signs of spring, it is past due to begin meeting again.
We start the season dazed, disoriented, fresh, with the question “Are we sane?” as asked by the German Jewish psychoanalyst, sociologist and philosopher Erich Fromm (March 23, 1900 – March 18, 1980) who had been highly involved in what is known as The Frankfurt School.
We will be reading the first 2 chapters (in English and 中文,最后!!) from the book “The Sane Society” /《健全社会》(1955).
We hope it provides a constructive opening.
The meeting is planned for Sunday, March 18th at 6pm at HomeShop.
Please get in touch if you wish to receive a pdf copy of the text.
