Salon Sophie Charlotte 2020

Event

Starts on
18.01.20

19:00 — 23:00

Berlin

Event access: Public

In 2020, the Berlin-Brandenburg Academy of Sciences and Humanities will again open its doors, inviting the public to the "Salon Sophie Charlotte" - this year on the theme of "Worldviews". The ten members of Die Junge Akademie who were admitted in the summer of 2019 are taking part in the Salon with their own campaign on the topic.

Worldviews are not only spatially and temporally limited, they are also influenced by social circumstances. Science is not exempt from this: Despite the ideal of objectivity, researchers' thoughts and actions are influenced by certain views of the world - scientific, but also non-scientific. The ten new members of Die Junge Akademie focus on scientific worldviews - and thus also on the worldviews of scientists!

Room 230
Here, a video installation encourages reflection on individual elements of scientific worldviews. In the same room, guests can talk to members of Die Junge Akademie throughout the evening.

Corridor, 3rd floor
With an hologram installation, Die Junge Akademie shows worldviews from different sciences: from medicine to social sciences to art history.

Information on the "Salon Sophie Charlotte" is available on the Berlin-Brandenburg Academy of Sciences and Humanities website.

      Ethnographic research has now found its way into many disciplines – and yet its epistemological premises, political implications and potential for resistance are often given too little consideration. The Summer Academy provides a forum for discussing ethnography as a contested epistemological practice within various disciplinary contexts.

    • Workshop „The Language(s) of Academia“
