AudioSophia 2 - "Autonomy and Aesthetic Engagement"

A portrait of Joyce to go with the theme of Nguyen's work.

This is an unabridged audio rendition of a work of academic philosophy. It is accessible in content, but be forewarned: it's long and was not written for a public audience. It's not the normal style of Reductio, so we've set it apart as part of a series called "AudioSophia".

I hope you enjoy it!
