Europe’s continuing unity, through thick and thin, has been a unity of ideas and of the arts.  But intellectuals and artists have been marginalised as influential actors in national societies dominated by material values. Could they take on a civilising mission within a new kind of European integration?

Chair:

Baroness (Onora) O’Neill  (Principal, Newnham College, Cambridge; philosopher)

Speakers:

Baroness (Susan) Greenfield (Professor of Physiology, Oxford University; Director of the Royal Institution)


George Steiner  (Churchill College, Cambridge; formerly Professor of  English and Comparative Literature, University of Geneva)
