In the Karl Jaspers House
Sunday, 18 January 2015, morning:
At the Karl Jaspers House, there will be a discussion on our topic in relation to Karl Jaspers. We will be discussing his text‘Die Schuldfrage’ (The Question ofGuilt), published in 1946. The discussion will be led in a seminar-style format by Prof. Dr Martin Vialon, Director of the Erich Auerbach Archive at the Institute of Philosophy.
Due to the very limited space available, it is unlikely that all visitors attending the main conference will be able to take part in this closing event. We therefore ask anyone interested to register at
