30th October 2019 – Arundhati Roy
The Ministry of Utmost Happiness (2017)
The Tragedy of Kashmir and the Partition of India.
Set in New Delhi and the troubled region of Kashmir, The Ministry of Utmost Happiness by award-winning novelist, social critic and political activist Arundhati Roy gives imaginative voice to lives affected by the traumatic events that have formed modern India. Our philosophy tea will look at these events and how they are portrayed in the novel, and the consequences they have for the identity of contemporary India, the world’s largest democracy.
Producer: Paul Kessel
The Philosophy Tea talks were held regularly at the Regina Theatre in Uppsala from 2014 to 2021. During these well attended events – where tea, scones and jam were served – Professor Peter Wallensteen and Guest Lecturer Daniel Ogden, both of Uppsala University, discussed thinkers who have contributed to our understanding of peace and justice. In all, 40 sessions were held, of which 31 are recorded. The session were also supported by Uppsala University as part of its outreach activities.
