Konrad Paul Liessmann, Professor for Philosophy at the University of Vienna, is known for a series of outstanding publications that always reach beyond the boundaries of his own subject – recently, together with the author Michael Köhlmeier, he published “mythological-philosophical temptations” (2016) and “mythological-philosophical condemnations” (2019). In his latest book, he follows Nietzsche on the trail of “midnight temptations” (2021).

His FiF Lecture took ideas from his book Education as a provocation (2017) asking how to deal with thinking. In this context, there was also an opportunity to reflect on issues brought up in the Corona pandemic.
