“The New Asceticism: Impure Pleasures, Fear and Resentment in Europe” Burning Issues – 4 September 2019
Join us for a complimentary dinner and a presentation by Dr. Gesine Palmer.
DELICIOUS DINNER • FREE DRINKS • GUEST SPEAKER
Tobacco, alcohol but also travel, growth or having children: with today’s cultural climate increasingly seeming to make space for a trend that views renunciation as a socially allowed gratification and self-enjoyment as somewhat impure, Forest EU is inviting you to hear from the Berlin-based theologian Dr. Gesine Palmer about the new ascetic Zeitgeist and the need to defend a more balanced approach between enjoyment and the pursuit of a world that can be enjoyed.
- Timing: Wednesday 4 September 2019, from 19:00
- Location: Be Burger restaurant, Rue du Luxembourg 43, 1000 Brussels, Belgium
The presentation will be preceded by a complimentary burger and a beer and followed by a debate among attendees on the issue.
