RSam Podcast – Details, episodes & analysis

Dr Emily Qureshi-Hurst is a Junior Research Fellow at Pembroke College and a College Lecturer in Philosophy at Oriel College in Oxford. Dr Qureshi-Hurst completed a doctorate in philosophy at the University of Oxford in Science and Religion (2021). Her thesis examined the theoretical support for a B-theory of time provided by special and general relativity, and re-interpreted Paul Tillich's doctrine of salvation in light of this metaphysical temporal model. In 2022, Cambridge University Press published her first book exploring these themes: 'God, Salvation, and the Problem of Spacetime'. Her second book on this topic, 'Salvation in the Block Universe: Time, Tillich, and Transformation', will be published in the second half of 2024. In this episode, we discuss the relationship between modern physics and religion, theories of time and the theology of Paul Tillich.

Dr. Leon S. Brenner is a psychoanalyst & psychoanalytical theorist. His work focuses on the integration of philosophical and linguistic frameworks in the psychoanalytic theory of subjectivity and the understanding of the relationship between culture and psychopathology. He is the co-founder of Unconscious Berlin, and his latest book on the psychoanalysis of autism is called 'The Autistic Subject: On the Threshold of Language,' where he presents a novel account of autistic subjectivity from a Lacanian psychoanalytic perspective. In this episode, we discuss Žižek, Badiou, clinical and subjective structures, drive vs desire, autistic vs psychotic foreclosure, language's relationship to the body and what psychoanalysis tells us about love.
