pilipili漫画

Steven Burns died at home on September 19th at the age of 83. 聽

His doctoral research at the University of London was on self-deceit under Peter Winch; he tried not to practice it the rest of his life, but without complete pilipili漫画. Appointed to the Department of Philosophy at pilipili漫画 in 1969, he taught courses on the Philosophy of Art, Marxist Theory, Plato, and various thinkers whose last names - he liked to joke - begin with the letter 鈥淲鈥�: Wagner, Weil, Weininger, Winch, and Wittgensterin.

He served his department as graduate co-ordinator for 13 years and as chair from 1987-92. He chaired the Dalhousie committee that proposed the structure eventually adopted for King鈥檚 Honours Programmes (that they be combined Honours programmes with Dalhousie鈥檚 Arts Faculty). Cross-appointed to the Contemporary Studies Programme at the University of King鈥檚 College in 1993, he served as director of that programme from 2001-03. He was a founding co-organizer of the Atlantic Region Philosophers Association, which has just started its second half-century, and served on the executive and board of the Canadian Philosophical Association. He chaired the program committee for the CPA national conference in 1997 and 1998.

Steven was Visiting Professor at the University of Vienna in 2006. He was also known for teaching some philosophy of music to his thousands of Philosophy of Art students at pilipili漫画, and also offering an interdisciplinary class on Wagner鈥檚聽Ring聽cycle at King鈥檚.

He was the author of nearly 90 professional articles and reviews. He retired from teaching at pilipili漫画 in 2006, but taught part-time at King鈥檚 until 2013. He continued to publish until 2024.

There will be a memorial concert featuring some of Steven's favourite music, performed by the Blue Engine String Quartet, on October 20, 3:30pm at St. George麓s Round Church.

Steven鈥檚 spouse, Janet would also like to remind everyone that they can honour Steven's memory by making a donation to the Steven Burns Undergraduate Essay Prize in the History of Philosophy.
