Event overview
A film about the most influential person you’ve never heard of - ‘Paul Goodman Changed My Life’ - is to be screened at Goldsmiths on Wednesday, 23 November 2011, 10am-12pm. in room RHB-143.
This will be of interest to PSYCHOLOGISTS, SOCIOLOGISTS, EDUCATIONALISTS, and POLITICAL SCIENTISTS: Paul Good¬man wrote Growing Up Absurd, a prescient work about dis¬affected youth that is of obvious relevance to contemporary England; he co-authored Gestalt Therapy and also co-authored Communitas about urban planning and related matters.
The film will also be of interest to ENGLISH students and staff (he was a novelist and poet) and to MEDIA AND COMMUNICATIONS and DRAMA – the film’s DIRECTOR, Joanathan Lee, will be present to answer questions after the film and also for lunch afterwards in the refectory!
