Lauren Kassell / Richard Pettigrew / Nisha Ramayya
For Halloween this year, we delved into the mystic… Philosophy often presents itself as founded on logic and rationality, but even the most rigorous of us must concede that the world can be a strange place. So how does philosophy contend with the mysterious and the inexplicable? Can it really be logic all the way down, or might rationality stand on something a little spookier?
