A. Todd Franklin, associate professor of philosophy, presented a paper at this year's meeting of the Alain Locke Society held Nov. 7-8 at George Washington University. The paper, titled "Unlikely Allies: Nietzsche, Locke and the Counter-Hegemonic Force of Critical Consciousness," focused on the ways in which both philosophers function as Cultural Physicians.
In keeping with the conference theme of "Locke in Conversation," Franklin's paper detailed the way in which Nietzsche and Locke articulate theories of value that are philosophically conversant and psychologically transformative.
