Ivan
Illich at Penn State:
Continuing the Conversation
Symposium
zu Ehren von Ivan Illich,
Pennsylvania State Universität
(USA), 12-14 November,
2004
This
symposium honors the
presence of Ivan Illich
(1926-2002) at Pennsylvania
State University. Illich
was an extravagant thinker
whose searing criticisms
of modern certainties
were rooted in the soil
of friendship. Illich
was a restless scholar
whose pursuit of the
historical origins of
the modern condition
led him to continually
question, revise and
deepen many of his previous
ideas and formulations.
For
over a decade (1986-1998),
Illich thus prodded
and provoked his auditors
at Penn State to grapple
with his incessant,
wide-ranging, and disciplined
studies aimed at shaking
up the modern mind-set.
The focus of this symposium
two years after Ivan
Illich's death is to
explore his ideas and
arguments. In trying
to think after Illich
we hope to pursue some
of the many conversations
he began by emulating
his extravagance and
self-criticism.
