| Results and Impact | For this year's Conway Memorial Lecture, Philip Schofield, Director of the Bentham Project at UCL, will be discussing the recently uncovered, almost prophetic writings of philosopher and reformer Jeremy Bentham (1748-1832) concerning sexuality and morality. To speak of a secular prophet appears nowadays to be a contradiction in terms. A prophet is usually understood to be a person who, inspired by supernatural agency, speaks on behalf of that agent and predicts the future. But Bentham himself pointed out that the original Greek meaning of the term referred in its extensive sense simply to a person who 'speaks out', and in a more limited extent to a person who 'foretells'. |
