The Gabriel Marcel Institute of Philosophy Sydney
The Institute exists to extend the spirit of Gabriel Marcel’s philosophy into the new century. Marcel’s thought ranges across philosophy, religion, drama and the arts. He wrote 35 plays, was theologically literate, and his philosophical Friday soirees were attended by Paul Ricoeur, Emmanuel Levinas, Jean Wahl, Simone de Beauvoir, Nicolas Berdyaev and Jean-Paul Sartre and others. He was unsystematic (rhizomic we might say today) in his thought and adept at renewing ideas with fidelity to the past and creativity in terms of the future.
Creative fidelity, one of his book titles, is the Institute’s motto.
