Don Emon, Institute for Applied Philosophy program chair, will continue UNC Asheville’s philosophy lecture series with a talk on "A Meaningful Philosophy of Life" at 7:30 p.m. Tuesday, Dec. 4, at UNC Asheville’s Kellogg Center, 11 Broyles Rd., Hendersonville. His talk is based on a quote by Robert Davidson, "The discerning philosopher should furnish us with a more comprehensive and intellectually satisfying interpretation of life than religious faith alone… or than a cold and dispassionate scientific account of existence can provide." An open discussion will follow Emon's talk. The event is open to the public. A donation of $5 will be suggested at the door.

The program is part of a year-long, nine-part series co-sponsored by UNC Asheville’s Philosophy Department and the Institute for Applied Philosophy. The series, “Great Quotes,” is designed to foster discussion of philosophically significant issues surrounding well-known quotations.
