Description was written before the event

Philosophy practitioner, non-fiction author, and lecturer Severi Hämäri presents his new work 12 Philosophers - Great Insights from Ancient Thinkers (Aviador, 2026).

This accessible book places Greek, Roman, Indian, and Chinese philosophy within the culture and history of their times. According to Hämäri, without these thinkers we would not have the modern world, its societies, or its science. Since spring 2025, Hämäri has been lecturing on the history of philosophy at the Helsinki Workers' Institute.

Free admission.
