Consider human ecological loneliness and our longing for reconnection with all creation. What healing is available in an era defined by environmental loss and exploitation? Can we strengthen the fragile connection between modern society and the space we inhabit?“Loneliness is the symptom that desires its cure.”In this episode Macie Bridge welcomes writer, translator, and poet Laura Marris to reflect on her essay collection The Age of Loneliness, a meditation on solitude, grief, and the ecology of attention. Marris considers what it means to live through an era defined by environmental loss and human disconnection, yet still filled with wonder. She shares stories of tardigrades that endure extreme conditions, how airports reveal our attitudes toward birds, and the personal loss of her father that awakened her to “noticing absence.” Together, they explore how ecological loneliness might transform into longing for reconnection—not only among humans, but with the creatures and landscapes that share our world. Marris suggests that paying attention, naming, and noticing are acts of restoration. “Loneliness,” she writes, “is the symptom that desires its cure.”Episode Highlights“Loneliness is the symptom that desires its cure.”“There are ways, even very simple ones, that individuals can do to make the landscape around them more hospitable.”“I don't believe that humans are hardwired to exploit. There have been many societies with long traditions of mutual benefit and coexistence.”“It's really hard to notice an absence sometimes. There's something curative about noticing absences that have been around but not acknowledged.”“Ecological concerns are not a luxury. It's actually really important to hold the line on them.”Helpful Links and ResourcesThe Age of Loneliness by Laura Marris — https://www.graywolfpress.org/books/age-lonelinessUnderland by Robert Macfarlane — https://wwnorton.com/books/9780393242140E.O. Wilson on “Beware the Age of Loneliness” — https://www.economist.com/news/2013/11/18/beware-the-age-of-lonelinessAbout Laura MarrisLaura Marris is a writer and translator whose work spans poetry, essays, and literary translation. She is the author of The Age of Loneliness and has translated Albert Camus's The Plague for Vintage Classics. She teaches creative writing and translation at the University at Buffalo.Show NotesThe Ecology of Loneliness and LongingLaura Marris discusses The Age of Loneliness—“Eremocene”—a term coined by E.O. Wilson to describe a speculative future of environmental isolation.Fascination with poetic form and environmental prose emerging during the pandemic.Ecological loneliness arises from biodiversity loss, but also offers the chance to reimagine more hospitable human landscapes.Extreme Tolerance and the Human ConditionMarris describes tardigrades as metaphors for endurance without thriving—organisms that survive extremes by pausing metabolism.“How extremely tolerant are humans, and what are our ways of trying to be more tolerant to extreme conditions?”Air conditioning becomes an emblem of “extreme tolerance,” mirroring human adaptation to a destabilized environment.Birds, Airports, and the Language of BlameMarris explores how modern air travel enforces ecological loneliness by eradicating other species from its space.She reveals hidden networks of wildlife managers and the Smithsonian's Feather Identification Lab.Reflects on the “Miracle on the Hudson,” where language wrongly cast geese as antagonists—“as if the birds wanted to hit the plane.”Loneliness, Solitude, and Longing“Loneliness is solitude attached to longing that feels painful.”Marris distinguishes solitude's generativity from loneliness's ache, suggesting longing can be a moral compass toward reconnection.Personal stories of her father's bird lists intertwine grief and ecological noticing.Ground Truthing and Community ScienceMarris introduces “ground truthing”—people verifying ecological data firsthand.She celebrates local volunteers counting birds, horseshoe crabs, and plants as acts of hope.“Community care applies to human and more-than-human communities alike.”Toxic Landscapes and Ecological AftermathMarris recounts Buffalo's industrial scars and ongoing restoration along the Niagara River.“Toxins don't stop at the edge of the landfill—they keep going.”She reflects on beauty, resilience, and the return of eagles to post-industrial lands.Attention and Wonder as Advocacy“A lot of advocacy stems from paying local attention.”Small, attentive acts—like watching sparrows dust bathe—are forms of resistance against despair.Cure, Absence, and Continuing the ConversationMarris resists the idea of a final “cure” for loneliness.“Cure could be something ongoing, a process, a change in your life.”Her annual bird counts become a continuing dialogue with her late father.Wisdom for the Lonely“Take the time to notice what it is you're lonely for.”She calls for transforming loneliness into longing for a more hospitable, interdependent world.Production NotesThis podcast featured Laura MarrisInterview by Macie BridgeEdited and Produced by Evan RosaProduction Assistance by Alexa Rollow, Emily Brookfield, and Hope ChunA Production of the Yale Center for Faith & Culture at Yale Divinity School https://faith.yale.edu/aboutSupport For the Life of the World podcast by giving to the Yale Center for Faith & Culture: https://faith.yale.edu/give

In this week's film show, Manon Kerjean and Dheepthika Laurent look at Nadia Melliti's performance as an Arab woman struggling with her sexual identity in "La Petite Dernière", a film for which she won best actress at the Cannes Film Festival. We also look at François Ozon's daring, bold adaptation of Albert Camus' masterpiece "L'Étranger" and discuss the technical prowess of "L'Homme qui rétrécit", a film starring Oscar-winning actor Jean Dujardin. Finally, we check out Isabelle Huppert's new film, "La femme la plus riche du monde", a biopic loosely inspired by L'Oréal heiress Liliane Bettencourt.

Never trust anyone who tries to be ethically pure. This is the message of Albert Camus's short novel La Chute (The Fall), in which a retired French lawyer tells a stranger in a bar in Amsterdam about a series of incidents that led to a profound personal crisis. The self-described ‘judge-penitent' had once thought himself to be morally irreproachable, but an encounter with a woman on a bridge and a mysterious laugh left him tormented by a sense of hypocrisy. In this episode, Jonathan and James follow Camus's slippery hero as he tries and fails to undergo a moral revolution, and look at the ways in which the novel's lightness of style allows for twisted inversions of conventional morality. They also consider the similarities between Camus's novels and those of Simone de Beauvoir, and his fractious relationship with Jean-Paul Sartre.

Die Pause dient dazu, Bedeutung zu unterstreichen, Gedanken Raum zu geben oder das Publikum emotional mitzunehmen. Sie trägt keine Uhr, sie zählt Momente. Während andere noch sprechen, hat sie längst gewirkt. Worte sind Waffen, doch die mächtigste Munition ist das Nichts dazwischen. Hier die fünf wichtigsten Pausenarten in der Rhetorik:

Nommé ministre de la Justice en 1981, suite à l'arrivée de la gauche au pouvoir, Robert Badinter a su conjuguer ses convictions politiques à son approche humaniste. Écoutez ses plaidoyers contre la peine de mort, pour la captation audiovisuelle des procès historiques et pour la dépénalisation de l'homosexualité : les combats d'un avocat exemplaire.    Robert Badinter est entré dans l'Histoire le 9 octobre 1981 pour avoir obtenu l'abolition de la peine capitale, promesse de campagne de François Mitterrand. Pour le Garde des Sceaux, c'est l'aboutissement d'une longue lutte portée par de grandes figures intellectuelles telles que Victor Hugo, Alphonse de la Martine, Flora Tristan ou encore Albert Camus. Rappelons également l'engagement sans faille de Robert Badinter pour la dépénalisation de l'homosexualité en France et dans le monde. Robert Badinter a défendu la loi Forni, rapportée par la députée Gisèle Halimi. Le texte promulgué le 4 août 1982 abrogeait définitivement le «délit d'homosexualité». Sans oublier la loi autorisant les captations filmées des procès historiques promulguées le 11 juillet 1985. Un texte novateur permettant la constitution de sources audiovisuelles, pour les historiens et le travail de mémoire. Je tiens à remercier chaleureusement toutes celles et ceux qui ont largement contribué à la réalisation de ce documentaire inédit. Toute l'équipe des rendez-vous de l'Histoire de Blois et plus particulièrement Caroline Gomes, responsable des archives et des podcasts Badinter.   À écouter :  Justice et histoire, Robert Badinter Robert Badinter, alors sénateur, avocat et ancien ministre de la Justice, traite des rapports complexes qu'entretiennent magistrats et historiens, en revenant sur le procès de Robert Faurisson ou bien sur les lois mémorielles. Conférence de clôture de l'édition 2010 des Rendez-vous de l'Histoire sur le thème «Faire Justice».  La dépénalisation de l'homosexualité En 2010, lors des Rendez-vous de l'histoire sur «La Justice», Robert Badinter, Louis-Georges Tin et Philippe Castetbon, sous la modération de Florence Tamagne, ont échangé au sujet de la dépénalisation de l'homosexualité. Ensemble, ils dressent un état des lieux du sujet en France, près de 30 ans après la suppression du «délit d'homosexualité» et 3 ans avant l'adoption du mariage pour tous, ainsi que l'ouverture de l'adoption aux couples homosexuels. Ils en appellent également à une mobilisation internationale pour obtenir la dépénalisation universelle de l'homosexualité. Remerciements également à notre partenaire le magazine Historia, dont le numéro d'Octobre consacre un article au maître Badinter, Historia que vous retrouverez également aux rendez-vous de l'Histoire de Blois à partir du 9 octobre 2025, jour de l'entrée au Panthéon de Robert Badinter ! Robert Badinter est mort à l'âge de 95 ans, dans la nuit du 8 au 9 février. En 2001, il revenait pour Historia sur son combat pour la peine de mort dans un long entretien.   «Robert Badinter au Panthéon», un évènement national à suivre sur les antennes de RFI le jeudi 9 octobre à partir de 17h10 TU.

En La Mesa de Filósofos el tema fue Albert Camus, un autor que nació en 1913, pero que se mantiene muy actual. De hecho, en la pandemia, una de sus obras más conocidas, “La peste”, fue best seller mundial. Camus nos habla de lo absurdo y es muy interesante analizar sus planteos sobre la vida, la violencia, la esperanza, entre otros.

Gefühlt muss heute alles Sinn machen: Yoga für die Selfcare, Reisen für die Horizonterweiterung, sogar Schlaf wird zum Biohacking. Aber manchmal nervt genau dieser permanente Sinn-Overload. In dieser Folge frage ich mich, ob wir nicht mehr Unsinn brauchen. Vom TikTok-Trend “German Brainrot” über dadaistische Lautgedichte bis hin zu Albert Camus: Kann das Sinnlose nicht manchmal das Sinnvollste sein?

Simone Weil écrit "Les besoins de l'âme" en 1943, dans le cadre de ce que pourrait être, après la guerre, une nouvelle Déclaration des Droits de l'homme. Albert Camus, qui publiera ce texte après la mort de Simone Weil, déclara que son livre était l'un des plus élevés et des plus beaux qu'on ait écrits sur notre civilisation. Et il ajoutera que Simone Weil fut le seul grand esprit de son temps.➔ Regardez la version vidéo de cet épisode : https://youtu.be/A_oRA5DHCyw➔ Rejoignez-moi sur Patreon : https://www.patreon.com/ParoledephilosopheMembre du Label Tout Savoir.

Nous sommes le 10 mai 1953, à Saint-Etienne, à 60 km, au sud-ouest de Lyon. Dans une allocution qu'il prononce à la bourse du travail, le futur prix Nobel de littérature, auteur de « La Peste » ou de « L'Etranger, Albert Camus déclare : « Si quelqu'un vous retire votre pain, il supprime en même temps votre liberté. Mais si quelqu'un vous ravit votre liberté, soyez tranquille, votre pain est menacé, car il ne dépend plus de vous et de votre lutte, mais du bon plaisir d'un maître. La misère croît à mesure que la liberté recule dans le monde et inversement. » Gage de stabilité politique au cours des siècles, la pain, lorsqu'il vient à manquer, devient le combustible des révolutions. Un peu moins de deux siècles plus tôt, en 1770, dans ses « Dialogues sur le commerce des blés », l'abbé Galiani, économiste italien, écrit : « Le blé peut être regardé comme une production du sol, et sous cette vue, il appartient au commerce et à la législation économique. Ensuite, il peut et doit être, en même temps, regardé comme la matière de première nécessité et le premier soin de l'ordre civil des sociétés, et sous ce point de vue, il appartient à la politique et à la raison d'Etat ». Invités : Coline Arnaud et Denis Saillard, chercheuse et chercheur au Centre d'histoire culturelle des sociétés contemporaines, à l'université de Versailles. « Pain et liberté – Une histoire politique du pain, du Moyen Âge au XXIe siècle » paru aux éd.

Hallo Alle! Es ist mal wieder an der Zeit über der 'Mensch in der Revolte' zu sprechen. Gerade in Zeiten in denen Ideologien wieder an Attraktivität gewinnen, ist es wichtig diesen etwas entgegenzuhalten. Camus hat In dem früheren Essay 'Der Mythos des Sisyphos' über das Absurde nachgedacht. 
Der Mensch hat ein Bedürfnis nach Sinn, die Welt aber gibt ihm keinen. Daraus entsteht ein Widerspruch, was Camus das Absurde nennt. Im Essay 'Der Mensch in der Revolte' bleibt der Mensch nun nicht mehr beim absurden Bewusstsein stehen, er revoltiert. Und in dieser Revolte bejaht er Werte. Der revoltierende Mensch sagt also nicht mehr nur, dass alles sinnlos ist, sondern er sagt, dass diese Sinnlosigkeit unerträglich ist, und deshalb fordert er Würde, Maß, Freiheit, eine gerechtere Welt und Solidarität.

Le monde du rock progressif s'est montré très créatif ces derniers temps et j'ai encore pas mal de bons albums parus cet été à partager avec vous ! Ainsi dans ce numéro j'ai enfin la joie de vous présenter le tout nouvel album d'EDENYA ! Tant attendu depuis que j'ai découvert ( trop récemment ! ) ce groupe de la région parisienne fondé par le multi-instrumentiste et auteur-compositeur Marco.  "The Secret Destination You Are Looking For" est une invitation au voyage, pour amateurs de musiques folk, rock prog et ambient. Bien entouré de musicien.nes de talent, Marco, ses guitares et ses claviers vous embarquent avec la voix d'Ingrid Denis (Oscil), le violon de Juliette Caradec, la basse de Jean Paul Cartigny et le tout soutenu par la frappe infaillible de Sylvie SJ. Vous l'aurez compris, je suis fan de cet album, je ne peux que vous le recommander sincèrement !  Autre galette toute chaude, celle de nos amis anglais FEARFUL SYMMETRY, intitulée "I've Started, So I'll Finish...", sorti ce 5 septembre. Amateurs d'un rock prog teinté de jazz et voix féminine de type "Renaissance", on se croirait au cœur de la grande époque de l'école de Canterbury, avec une production moderne et fort réussie, un album qui commence à se sentir chez lui sur ma platine ! L'un des doyens de la musique électronique, mais avec une éternelle jeunesse et toujours autant d'enthousiasme dans ses projets, notre JEAN-MICHEL JARRE national publie un excellent live à Bratislava suite à sa prestation du 12 mai 2024 dans la capitale slovaque à l'occasion du 7ème festival STARMUS. Dédié à l'astronomie et à l'exploration spatiale, l'un des co-fondateurs de ce festival est le Docteur BRIAN MAY, astrophysicien. Et non, Il ne s'agit pas d'un homonyme du guitariste de Queen mais juste...de lui-même ! On devrait d'ailleurs aussi inventer un doctorat en claviers et guitares à l'écoute de ces deux éminences en live dans le titre extrait de ce live !   Dernière nouveauté de ce programme, le nouvel album de HOOPY FROOD, la formation anglaise également colorée musique électronique mais avec du groove et même des ambiances flodyennes nous offre un "seulement" 4ème album en plus de 20 ans de carrière, ça peaufine outre-manche !  Autres formations contemporaines de cette émission, IQ avec un extrait de l'album "The WAKE" paru en 1985. Mais si vous vous étiez endormis sur cette époque, sachez que la formation de Southampton a quand même publié cette année "Dominion", que vous devriez y jeter une oreille et prendre vos billets pour profiter de leur présence à Paris à l'occasion du PROG ROCK FEST qui se déroulera au CASINO DE PARIS ces 26 et 27 septembre avec aussi, excusez du peu, Karnakata, RPWL et The Watch !  Il y a quelques mois, nos amis lillois d'AMARTIA ont publié "Not A Detail", un documentaire complet sur les 25 ans d'histoire du groupe, en voici le lien : NOT A DETAIL.  Les différents membres ( actuels mais aussi passés) s'expriment sincèrement sur la vie de ce groupe passionnant, avec des retours sur chaque album, des extraits de concerts...Bref, vous passerez un bon moment et peut-être que comme moi vous aurez envie de vous replonger dans sa discographie, ou de la découvrir ! Je ne vous le cache pas c'est l'une de mes formations  françaises favorites, retrouver dans ce numéro avec un extrait de "The Beast Within" paru en 2017. Et puis pas d'AMAROK sans un retour au sources dans les 70's avec ici les turinois d' ARTI & MESTIERI et leur classieuse fusion rock jazz à l'italienne fort bien représentée dès leur 1er album "Tilt", nous étions en 1974. Un album hommage à la Femme, c'est le concept du justement intitulé "Eve" par THE ALAN PARSONS PROJECT en 1979. Sur ce LP on retrouve notamment la voix de Clare Torry, LA voix de "Great Gig In The Sky" de Pink Floyd, sans doute rencontrée par Alan Parsons, l'ingé-son de l'iconique "Dark Side Of The Moon" mais aussi sur le titre diffusé ici la moins connue et regrettée Lesley Duncan vocaliste sur ce même album des Floyd mais aussi chanteuse et autrice-compositrice dont le titre "Love Song"a fait les beaux succès d'Elton John, repris également par un certain David Bowie. Dans "Eve", elle à la charge de clôturer magistralement l'album, émotion garantie !      On connait Roger Dean pour ses illustrations de pochettes d'albums, particulièrement dans le monde du rock progressif, notamment avec YES. Il fût également le créateur du logo de Virgin Records de Richard Branson et on lui doit aussi parmi ses chefs-d'œuvre l'artwork d"Octopus" de GENTLE GIANT. Et quand le contenu est pareillement exceptionnel, alors nous avons un album culte, retour en 1972 avec nos géants sympathiques et un extrait inspiré par un certain Albert Camus... En 1976, PROCOL HARUM s'installe dans des studios américains pour enregistrer "Something Magic". Mais cela ne sauvera pas l'album qui sort en mars 1977, le groupe arrive en bout de course et se sépare à l'issue de la tournée de promotion de l'album. Le phœnix renaîtra dans les années 90 avant de disparaitre définitivement avec alors son seul membre fondateur Garry Booker qui nous quittait en 2022. Reste une bien belle discographie !  Thierry Joigny   Page Facebook de l'émission : AMAROK44

Why Hope Won't Make You Happy (And What Will) - Albert Camus (Absurdism). In this podcast we will be talking about why hope will not make you happy from the philosophy of Albert Camus. This video also talks about  how to live without hope and still find joy in the here and now.  Albert Camus is one of the most representative figures of the philosophy of “absurd” or “absurdism".  So here's how to live without hope and still find joy in the here and now  -  01. Accept Life's Lack of Ultimate Meaning 02. Finding Meaning Through Actions, Not Answers 03. Live fully, unapologetically 04. Embrace Struggle 05. Love life as it is I hope you listening to these 5 ways to live without hope and still find joy in the here and now from the philosophy of Albert Camus, and find these insights helpful in your life.    Albert Camus is one of the greatest French writers and thinkers. He was a philosopher, an author and a journalist. He won the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1957 and his most famous works are The Stranger, The Plague, The Myth of Sisyphus, The Fall, and The Rebel. Camus is one of the most representative figures of the philosophy of the “absurd” or “absurdism,” which is a philosophical movement having as its central hypothesis that human beings exist in a purposeless, chaotic universe. Camus considered that absolute freedom must be balanced with absolute justice - too much freedom leads to the situation when the strong suppresses the weak but too much justice kills freedom, and we need to live and let live. As a promoter of the philosophy of the “absurd”, Camus believed that life has no meaning, that the universe simply exists and that it is indifferent to people's lives. We are like Sisyphus from Greek mythology, forever carrying that heavy rock to the top of the hill, although we know the rock will always fall down and our life's work is meaningless. Our condition might be tragic, but Camus considered that this exact condition hides a blessing in disguise: life does not have a meaning, but we are free to attribute it any meaning we want. His philosophy has inspired a lot of  people in dealing with the absurdity of life and even today, his philosophy is extremely relevant.

„Der Fremde“ von Albert Camus gilt als schwer verfilmbar. Regisseur François Ozon hat es trotzdem gewagt und sein Werk auf dem Filmfest Venedig vorgestellt. Seine Lesart des Romans ist teils radikal, aber respektvoll und folgerichtig. Wellinski, Patrick www.deutschlandfunkkultur.de, Lesart

El programa comienza con la escritora, poeta y periodista peruana Gabriela Wiener, que llega acompañada de Maielis González para hablar de Sudakasa. Este espacio se configura como una residencia artística destinada a mujeres migrantes, un lugar donde desarrollar proyectos que muchas veces no encuentran cabida en los grandes circuitos ni en las instituciones culturales. De esta experiencia surge el libro 'Siembra: Relatos de vidas Migra', publicado por Sudakasa Ediciones, que recoge historias nacidas a partir de esa convivencia y creación compartida.En la sección literaria, la actualidad pasa por Arturo Pérez-Reverte, que ha presentado 'Misión en París', la octava entrega de la saga de 'El capitán Alatriste', iniciada en 1996 y convertida en una de las series de novela histórica más populares en lengua española.El cine centra otra parte del programa con la Mostra de Venecia. Allí François Ozon estrena 'El extranjero', adaptación cinematográfica de la novela de Albert Camus, que compite por el León de Oro. Fuera de competición, Sofia Coppola debuta en el género documental con 'Marc by Sofia', una cinta sobre el diseñador Marc Jacobs, mientras Gus Van Sant presenta el thriller 'Dead Man's Wire'. La cobertura corre a cargo de Jordi Barcia.El repaso a festivales continúa con el de Santander, que celebra su edición del 12 al 18 de septiembre. En su presentación se anuncia la concesión de los Faros de Honor 2025 al actor Luis Tosa' y a la productora María Zamora.Estrenamos además la primera colaboración de Xaviera Torres, que cada dos semanas propondrá cuestiones surgidas de su experiencia como bióloga y que se relacionan con la cultura, la historia, la naturaleza o la vida cotidiana.El cierre lo ocupa la música con la historia de José Padilla. Este compositor español convirtió un coro de pescadores de zarzuela en la canción 'Valencia', que trascendió fronteras y llegó a sonar en cabarets de París, en orquestas de jazz de Nueva York e incluso en producciones de Hollywood. La explicación la aporta el musicólogo Enrique Mejías García, conocedor de estos repertorios que unen raíces mediterráneas y ecos cosmopolitas.Escuchar audio

The story so far: The boys are trapped in an underground movie store run by an anthropomorphic moleman. After a year of insane adventures, they start questioning where they might truly be...Magic mole scrolls and random scrawlings litter the place down here, so we dig through in the hopes of figuring out what Moleman might be hiding. But then the existential dread hits us...and what if we're actually in the afterlife? Like Lost? No...probably more like Jacob's Ladder (1990)! So we pop it in the VCR and ruminate on our lives by discussing our chiropractor experiences, Greg's history with My Girl, our favorite Albert Camus books, and An Occurrence At Owl Creek Bridge! Get comfy, pop some headphones in, and come get sad with us! If you dig us, why not check out our other podcast Greg's Cryptid Corner?

Elena Rui"Vedove di Camus"L'Orma Editorewww.lormaeditore.it«Esistono dubbi sul fatto che abbia amato Casarès, l'Unica? Le ha amate tutte, a suo modo, alcune più di altre, e Maria più di tutte, forse. Amate come un uomo, con la vanità di un uomo, l'egoismo di un uomo.»Il 4 gennaio 1960, la Facel Vega guidata dal celebre editore Michel Gallimard sfreccia lungo una strada della Borgogna e va a schiantarsi contro un platano. Sul sedile del passeggero, Albert Camus, che solo tre anni prima era stato insignito del Premio Nobel per la Letteratura, muore sul colpo. Mentre il mondo intero rimane attonito, orfano di uno dei più grandi intellettuali del Novecento, quattro donne si ritrovano all'improvviso “vedove” dell'uomo che amavano: la moglie Francine Faure, la brillante attrice Catherine Sellers, la giovane pittrice Mette Ivers, di origini danesi, e Maria Casarès, immensa interprete del teatro francese, che Camus stesso – fedele ai paradossi del sentimento – definiva «l'Unica».Con estro e rigore, Elena Rui indaga le vite e le voci di queste quattro figure femminili di fronte all'ineluttabilità della disgrazia. Si imbastisce così «un discorso sull'amore» che rifiuta viete certezze morali per restituire la trama sottile, contraddittoria e irriducibile degli affetti, offrendo a chi legge la libertà – e l'onere – di interrogarsi sui confini e sugli abissi dei rapporti umani.Elena Rui, nata a Padova nel 1980, vive in Francia dal 2005. Ha insegnato italiano ad Albi, Tolosa e Parigi. Ha già pubblicato La famiglia degli altri (Garzanti, 2021) e la raccolta di racconti Affetti non desiderati (Arkadia, 2024).

This lecture discusses key ideas from the 20th century philosopher, novelist, and essayist Albert Camus' four Letters To A German Friend (anthologized in Resistance, Rebellion, and Death: Essays) Specifically it examines the third letter, which elaborates the theme of the meaning of Europe, a matter where fascists and nationalists like the Nazis view matters one way and other Europeans view matters differently. The Nazis view Europe as something to possess and dominate, a system of resources to exploit. Camus advocates viewing Europe much as he views France, as something valuable, to which one can belong, and which has to be held to standards of justice and truth.

This lecture discusses key ideas from the 20th century philosopher, novelist, and essayist Albert Camus' four Letters To A German Friend (anthologized in Resistance, Rebellion, and Death: Essays) Specifically it examines the second letter, which builds upon and expands themes from the first letter, specifically holding one's country to standards. This is connected with a refusal to subordinate or suppress intelligence in favor of a misguided patriotism.

This lecture discusses key ideas from the 20th century philosopher, novelist, and essayist Albert Camus' four Letters To A German Friend (anthologized in Resistance, Rebellion, and Death: Essays) Specifically it examines the first letter, which elaborates the theme of love for one's country. He makes a distinction between two different conceptions of love for one's country, one which subordinates all other values and realities to one's country (as the Nazis do), and one that holds one's country to higher standards (as the French do), which seems to put them at a disadvantage.

How to write about the kaleidoscopic Sixties in the gloom of 2025? According to James Grady, author of the classic Six Days of the Condor and the new mid-century novel American Sky, the key is calibrating nostalgia with unflinching honesty about the past's complexities. "You can't just write about the past and not have a focus also on current times and really the future," Grady explains. The novelist's approach involves fictionalizing personal experiences while ensuring memories of traumatic events like the JFK or MLK assassinations connect with the painful realities of MAGA America. Rather than romanticizing the Sixties, Grady emphasizes the civil rights violence, the generational divide, and the "silent majority's" anxieties alongside the era's optimism. Grady's goal isn't to escape into nostalgia but to help readers understand how past dreams and failures shaped our present moment, making history a lens for understanding America's current challenges.1. Historical Fiction Must Connect Past to Present "You can't just write about the past and not have a focus also on current times and really the future. Otherwise it's like you're looking back at an old photograph of a horse and buggy. It's lovely, but it doesn't really speak to you."2. The Danger of Elite Liberal Condescension "Starting in about 1975 and 1976, I saw a new kind of, quote, liberal or left-winger come into the power circles of Washington, D.C. They were elite-educated, Ivy League, and they did their best to ignore any working class roots that they had. They started to look down on the labor unions."3. Fiction Can Reveal Truth Better Than Facts "So we can change the facts, but the facts are not necessarily necessary to reveal the truths... this is not a memoir where you have to be factual. This is fiction. And yet there's an echo of all of us."4. True Rebellion Requires Positive Vision "I always think of the great French philosopher Albert Camus who said a true rebel says yes to something better instead of just saying no and rejecting and fighting. You've got to have something to fight for."5. Literature Should Focus on Ordinary Americans "I think that a good author has to write about us, and you, almost more than they write about me... I want to know what's going on with someone in, you know, there's a town called Beaver Crossing, Nebraska, or, you know, Sonoma, California... Where real people are leading their lives and we learn from each other."Keen On America is a reader-supported publication.

Here is a fantastic episode by one of the world's leading Camus scholars, Dr. Simon Lea. The entire paper will be available in The Journal of Camus Studies. Below is the abstract of the paper:Albert Camus planned his works in cycles. Each were to contain an essay, a novel and plays. The first cycle wasconcerned with the absurd and the second with rebellion. Camus' life was tragically cut short in a motor accident before he could complete the third cycle. Between the second and third cycles, after the furore resulting from his publication of The Rebel, Camus wrote several texts that are not includedin his cyclical works. This paper is concerned with Camus' first cycle on the absurd and the following texts: The Myth of Sisyphus, The Stranger, Caligula and The Misunderstanding. In particular, I am interested in the role played by revelation in the communication of the absurd in these works. In this paper, I use the term 'revelation' in reference tomaking known something relating to the human condition via a process that is difficult or even impossible to understand. My argument is that Camus, drawing upon Nietzschean influences, is seeking in his first cycle to induce revelatoryexperiences in his readers in order to communicate ideas concerning the absurd.Please check out The Albert Camus Society.

Today we talk about Camus' book The Fall and what the main character represents in his larger project. We also talk about someone Camus deeply admired, Franz Kafka, and how to think of the images he created in his work. We talk about the experience of the modern individual in relation to politics. We also talk about what Camus and Kafka disagreed on. Hope you love it. :) Sponsor: Better Help: https://www.BetterHelp.com/PHILTHIS Thank you so much for listening!

Today we talk about the concept of exile from the work of Camus. We focus on a couple stories from his book Exile and The Kingdom. We talk about why Camus insists that true lucidity can only arise from the jarring lived experience he calls “exile,” not from armchair reflection. We talk about Janine's desert epiphany in “The Adulterous Woman.” We talk about school‑teacher Daru in “The Guest,” trapped between France and Algeria, whose double exile shows how history can choose for us. We talk about the everyday escape hatches—nostalgia, comfort contracts, curated news bubbles—that let people dodge exile until reality blindsides them.

Today we talk about Camus' concept of rebellion and how it offers a powerful alternative to abstract ideologies. We talk about solidarity as the foundation for justice without systems. We talk about the death penalty as a symbol of premeditated murder disguised as virtue. We talk about rebellion as something closer to art than politics—an act rooted in experience, defined by limits, and carried out with sincerity.

This motivating discussion was supposed to run earlier, but then the third year anniversary of Russia's full scale invasion of Ukraine was marked by Trump viciously reminding the world he works for Russia by kicking Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelenskyy out of the White House, after he, Vance, and MTG's boyfriend tried to ambush the war hero.    In our recorded first ever Gaslit Nation book club, we discussed Albert Camus' The Stranger (Matthew Ward translation) and Viktor Frankl's Man's Search for Meaning, to see what wisdom they hold for us today, and how these two works “talk to each other.”    For March, we're reading Gene Sharp's revolutionary handbook From Dictatorship to Democracy: A Conceptual Framework for Liberation, which informed revolts in Ukraine, the Arab Spring, Hong Kong, and beyond. Our March 31st salon at 4pm will open with a book club discussion of Dictatorship to Democracy. For April, we're reading (if you haven't already!)
