My word but the BBC used to make some really good programmes. Here on the BBC iPlayer you can get Bryan Magee's 1987 'The Great Philosophers' series, where you can (as I currently am doing) watch Sydney Morgenbesser talking about Peirce, James and Dewey. www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/epis...

The Great Philosophers - Series 1: 13. The American Pragmatists

Bryan Magee and Sidney Morgenbesser discuss the work of the American pragmatists CS Peirce, John Dewey and William James.

U. Göttingen has launched Bildersturm, a major research project addressing the underrepresentation of women in philosophy. It aims to overturn traditional images of the discipline by highlighting women philosophers and establishing new role models for the future: www.uni-goettingen.de/de/670560.html

One of the first philosophers to write about #climate change, Mary Midgley, was born on this date in 1919. For our episode earlier this year, we sent our Roving Philosophical Reporter to explore Midgley’s ideas about #animals and the Gaia hypothesis: youtu.be/yraIY5Uhb98 #PhilSky #WiseWomen
