Matjaz Potrc and Wilhelm Vossenkuhl

Matjaz visited his friend Wilhelm Vossenkuhl in Muenchen Germany on July 14th, 2010. They spoke about a plan to work and publish on moral particularism, a situated way of thinking according to Willi, as related to his Muenchen University Ethics research institute in Department of Philosophy. They spoke about some historic memories, such as the Lehrer symposium, Bayreuth visit (where Matjaz produced a collection of his papers), Muenchen philosophy of science and logic legacy, Stuttgart, Willi's lecture in Ljubljana and many more. A pilot lecture in Muenchen by Matjaz and Vojko is envisaged this winter. Matjaz shortly visited Hofbraukeller, but had a Weizenheffebeer only on his safe return home. In an Italian restaurant close to University a Viennese waiter commented on Matjaz memories of his learning Viennese dialect at the age of twelve in a working families environment in a big house in the middle of Vienna with cows on the ground. In fact, horses were kept in old Vienna in sub-terrain catacombes, said the waiter. Willi commented that Matjaz may be of German origin, as his grandgrandfather came from Sudetenland, as told by Matjaz uncle Francek. A quite warm day in Munich.
