This is not an official PR Workshop event, but it’s in the family: Our coordinator, Anil Mundra, will present some of his own work on how one Indian philosopher addressed epistemological problems of religious diversity at our sister workshop, Theory and Practice in South Asia. That’s this Thursday, October 30, at 4:30pm in Foster 103 at the southeast corner of our University of Chicago campus. See flyer below.
