The Fight Club: An Interpretation
Thu Nov 21, 19:00 - Thu Nov 21, 20:30
Roxy All Day (RAD)
ABOUT
The Fight Club is a movie that questions the narrator’s—and reader’s—view of reality, and the idea of madness in an epoch under the system of liberal democratic capitalism.
In this talk, we will explore three key interwoven elements of the movie in order to make sense of the self and modern society.
Please arrive 10-15 minutes early to purchase tea or coffee.
Our usual location (99 Loop Street) is currently being refurbished. It will be ready to host seminars and courses in January 2020.
Thank you,
Humanitas Lifelong Learning
