Dear Colleagues, We would like to invite you to the next in a series of events held at the Hungarian Academy of Sciences, and hosted by Central European University, the Collegium Budapest Institute for Advanced Study, and Andrassy University. On Monday, December 1, at 6pm all interested scholars from the Budapest academic community are welcome to attend an informal reception including wine and light refreshments. A simple combination of intellectual dialogue and conviviality constitute the agenda. Tim Crane, a philosopher from University College London who is spending the year at Collegium Budapest, will offer informal opening remarks on "Hungary's place in the intellectual landscape: an outsider's view." Come and claim your glass of wine, and prepare for a lively discussion about the future of academic Budapest in the European context.
