James Hillman 2015 Symposium starts Oct. 16

Thomas Moore's friend and mentor, James Hillman will be remembered as The Dallas Institute of Humanities and Culture sponsors the James Hillman 2015 Symposium on Friday 16 October and Saturday 17 October, 2015. This year's Symposium addresses the third volume of Hillman's Collected Works, Senex and Puer.
"Senex and Puer are Latin terms for 'old man' and 'youth' and personify oppositional states such as old versus new, authority versus creativity, and control versus impulse. Speakers will discuss these primary patterns for how we perceive ourselves and others. Join us for a lively conversation of Hillman’s work in a series of talks and roundtable discussions." 
Schedule:
Friday 16 October: 6:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m.
Saturday 17 October: 8:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m.
Breakfast and lunch are included.
Members $75, Non-members $95, Member Teachers $30, Students $10
Register online now.

This annual program aims to explore the rich depths of Hillman's "lifelong study — in his own words, a 'psychology deliberately affiliated with the arts, culture, and the history of ideas, arising as they do from the imagination.'"

Moore is a  Fellow of the Dallas Institute of Humanities and Culture.
