Living as a Bird with Vinciane Despret and Garry Marvin

In Living as a Bird, recently published in English at Polity (October 2021), Belgian philosopher Vinciane Despret sheds fresh light on the ways that birds construct their worlds and ornithologists have tried to understand them and enables us to become more aware of the multiple modes of existence that characterise the planet we share with other species. Joined in conversation by Garry Marvin, anthropologist and Professor of Human-Animal Studies, she will discuss the environmental issues underlined in her book.

This talk is part of The Earth Here and Now, a series of rendezvous on climate change with French and British thinkers on the occasion of the COP 26 held in Glasgow in November 2021

In partnership with Polity.
