On Mysticism: Simon Critchley in Conversation with Cornel West

On October 15, 2024, Pioneer Works hosted a launch for Simon Critchley’s new book, On Mysticism: The Experience of Ecstasy. The event featured a special dialogue between the author and his longtime friend, Dr. Cornel West—on his new book, medieval Christian figures, the boundaries of faith and reason, and so much more. ​​Simon Critchley is a philosopher and the author of over twenty books, including works of philosophy and books on Greek tragedy, dead philosophers, David Bowie, football, and suicide. His latest title explores the practice and history of mysticism, as well as its ties to occult knowledge, and the works of Flannery O'Connor and T.S. Eliot. This program is part of PW Broadcast's Author Talks, a series highlighting authors and thinkers across disciplines.
