Enn Soosaar was one of the most influential public intellectuals in Estonia, whose opinions and speeches shaped the mental understanding of the world of many people over several decades. His essays made him known as the “conscience of our time”.

The working language of the conference is Estonian but a simultaneous translation into English will be granted.
