Welcome to the Philosophical Society's Web Site


The Philosophical Society exists to advise and encourage anyone who has an interest in philosophy, and to help students who attend classes in philosophy organised by OUDCE ( Oxford University Department for Continuing Education).

The Philosophical Society is based at Rewley House, Oxford. The current President is Marianne Talbot who has been Director of Studies in Philosophy at OUDCE since 2001. The Society has a membership of well over 200. The running of the Society is in the hands of a committee (elected annually by members at a General Meeting) which determines policy and advises the President. The society was founded in 1973 by Dr Tony Chadwick, Staff Tutor in Philosophy at the Oxford University Department for External Studies, the predecessor of OUDCE.
