All are invited to join the discussion. 

The purpose of this seminar is to see in what ways various researchers in the faculty are involved in thought about modernity/modernities and to see how we are all approaching modernity from various standpoints to gauge how “European Modernity” can be submitted to a comparative study of its reception(s) here in South Africa.
