*BLACKHEATH PHILOSOPHY FORUM* blackheathphilosophy.org <http://www.blackheathphilosophy.org>
** 4pm Saturday June 4 ** *"Love and Meaning”* ** *Our speaker, Sam Shaoall*, *Lecturer in Philosophy at the University of Sydney, will discuss: “*Perennial philosophical questions about love remain unresolved. Is love an emotion, a mode of willing, or a special kind of cognition? Is love under our control, and can we be evaluated for it? Is love rational, or merely an expression of arbitrary passions? Is love a moral virtue, or a more mixed blessing? I begin to sort through these difficult questions by offering an account of love that rejects the common idea that love for persons is distinct from love for other kinds of objects, and that distinguishes love from other psychological phenomena via its connection to the perception of meaning.” ** ** *Come and join us for a stimulating talk and lively discussion *at the Hall at the Blackheath Neighbourhood Centre, cnr Gardiner Crescent & the Great Western Highway, 4pm-6pm, followed by informal discussion at the pub.Admission $10 includes a big afternoon tea before question time. Hall is heated.All welcome!** For more program details please go to blackheathphilosophy.org <http://www.blackheathphilosophy.org>
