Podcasts about Antigone

Per la prima volta nella storia italiana anche le carceri minorili sono sovraffollate. È l'allarme lanciato dall'associazione Antigone, che nell'ultimo rapporto sulle condizioni di detenzione evidenzia un sovraffollamento in 9 istituti minorili su 17. Fotografia confermata dai dati del ministero della Giustizia, che a maggio 2025 mostra un incremento a quota 600 dei giovani detenuti nelle carceri italiane. Un sovraffollamento che, unito all'uso frequente di psicofarmaci, alla carenza di percorsi rieducativi efficaci e a una serie di altri fattori, ha portato negli ultimi mesi a proteste e rivolte. Ma chi sono e come vivono i minorenni e giovani adulti presenti nelle nostre carceri? Da qui parte il viaggio di Radio24 negli istituti penali minorili italiani. In questa puntata ne parliamo con Susanna Marietti, coordinatrice nazionale Antigone, con il sottosegretario alla giustizia, Andrea Ostellari e con don Claudio Burgio, fondatore della comunità Kayros e cappellano dell'istituto penale per i minorenni di Milano, Cesare Beccaria.

durée : 00:58:55 - Toute une vie - Alors qu'il approche l'âge exceptionnel de 90 ans et compose l'une de ses toute dernières œuvres, Sophocle fait revivre le lieu de son enfance : Colone. Le vieil Œdipe aveugle et réprouvé, escorté par sa fille Antigone, vient y chercher asile, s'attirer la grâce des dieux et y mourir en paix.

Today on Ascend: The Great Books Podcast, Dcn. Garlick and Mr. Eli Stone discuss the second and final part of Oedipus at Colonus—wherein Sophocles brings the horrific tale of Oedipus to a beautiful, redemptive end.Deacon and Eli discuss the dramatic zenith of Oedipus' life, the theme of redemptive suffering, the binding power of love, and all the various ways this play comments on the relationships in Antigone and Oedipus Rex.Go visit thegreatbookspodcast.com for our reading schedule!Check out this awesome guide to Oedipus at Colonus! Here is the opening of Deacon's guide to Oedipus at Colonus:Oedipus at Colonus is a beautiful tale. It brings a tremendous amount of meaning to the Oedipus Cycle. Sophocles offers us perennial truths on fate, the agency of man, and the cosmic whole. I greatly enjoyed, as a first time reader, the narrative of Oedipus at Colonus—especially the ending. It is a tremendous zenith to the Oedipus Cycle and one that parallels the Book of Job in its ability to address the question of suffering.Oedipus at Colonus remains an important text within the Western canon of great books, as it is a beautiful antecedent to how later thinkers, like St. Augustine, will come to understand the world as subject to Divine Providence. Sophocles offers several preliminary considerations on whether the fate that rules the world does so according to justice; and whether man must adopt a certain docility in consideration of such a fate. The balance, however, of man's agency and fate's dominion is a perennial question.I am in debt to Mr. Eli Stone who not only guided me through this work but highly recommended the podcast cover the Oedipus Cycle. I very much appreciate his insights and all the wisdom he has brought to our conversations.Amongst all the horrific suffering, Oedipus at Colonus is able to bring a theme of redemption to the story of Oedipus. Like Antigone, he serves as a sign of the gods—a sign of cosmic fate, docility to divine order, and the meaning of suffering. May we come to understand Sophocles' lessons and how they invite us to a more ordered existence.Episode HighlightsRedemptive Death: Dcn. Garlick shares, “I fell in love with this play when Oedipus sees the thunder head rolling in… his ecstatic joy that death comes." Theseus' Nobility: Theseus' interruption of sacrifice to save Oedipus' daughters highlights Athenian justice: “Sojourners… are the special patronage of Zeus." Polyneices' Tragedy: Oedipus' curse on Polyneices sets up Antigone: “Please bury me… we're setting the foundation… for the first play."Love's Role: Antigone's mediation and Oedipus' farewell underscore love's binding power: “She is love and love binds," as Deacon note.Guest Spotlight: Eli StoneEli Stone returns, bringing his expertise from his time at the Chancery, his discernment with the Western Dominicans, and his current role at the University of Tulsa Honors College. His passion shines through: “These are my favorite Greek plays… I've really enjoyed them." Eli's insights on providence, love, and historical allegory enrich the discussion.Next Episode TeaserNext week, we dive into Euripides' Bacchae, a stark contrast to...

Through themes like guest friendship (xenia), the evolving justice of the Eumenides, and the binding power of Antigone's love—Sophocles crafts a narrative that resonates with an Athenian audience grappling with their own post-Peloponnesian War identity, while offering timeless reflections on providence and resilience: “Man is not his own agent… inside a cosmic order." Reading this part immerses you in the tension and anticipation of Oedipus' redemptive arc, preparing you for the transcendent conclusion in Part 2.Check out our written guide for more!Next Episode TeaserJoin us next week for Oedipus at Colonus Part 2, where we'll witness Oedipus' dramatic confrontations with Creon and Polyneices, and the transcendent moment of his death that ties the Theban cycle together.We'll explore how his suffering becomes a blessing for Athens, the role of love as a binding agent, and the historical allegory for an Athenian audience.

Giuseppe Conte"Poesia, al cuore dell'uomo"Seminare Idee Festivalhttps://www.seminareideefestival.it/evento_festival/poesia-al-cuore-delluomo/Seminare Idee Festival, Pratodomenica 8 Giugno 2025, ore 10:00Chiostro San Domenicoincontro con Giuseppe Conte"Poesia, al cuore dell'uomo"I primi esempi di coraggio in cui ci imbattiamo da lettori sono nel mito e nella poesia dei Greci. Pensiamo ad Achille, il giovane eroe che osa contrastare il Signore di Uomini Agamennone e accettare il proprio destino, o, caso ancora più emblematico, a un'eroina come Antigone, la figlia di Edipo che in nome della giustizia morale e dell'amore fraterno e in contrasto con la timorosa sorella Ismene, sfida Creonte, re di Tebe. Nei tempi medioevali e moderni c'è un coraggio che si manifesta di fronte al mare. Esempio principale è quello dell'Ulisse dantesco che sfida l'ignoto e l'infinito. Poi quello di Colombo, dei doppiatori di Capo Horn, degli ammutinati come Fletcher Christian, di Lord Byron con le sue celebri traversate a nuoto. Nel quotidiano esiste un coraggio nel fare il proprio dovere sino in fondo e il proprio lavoro con passione. Esiste anche un leggero coraggio nell'affrontare con humour (non sarcasmo e irrisione) i casi che ci toccano giorno dopo giorno. In una società dominata dalla tecnocrazia capitalista, esiste un coraggio nella pratica della poesia, che, umiliata e accantonata, continua a tener vivo tutto ciò che è umano, tutti i movimenti dell'anima, e continua a sognare una rivoluzione che riguardi nuove forme del vivere e nuovi assetti della società. Esiste infine il coraggio dell'esilio e del migrante, e il coraggio della speranza, come si legge in Un altro giorno verrà, del poeta palestinese Mahmud Darwish.Giuseppe Conte"Ferite e rifioriture"Lo Specchio / Mondadorihttps://www.ibs.it/ferite-rifioriture-libro-giuseppe-conte/e/9788804801283?inventoryId=796241997&queryId=71f0e56f9fea5c7008c2543a2bb5111cQuando nel 2006 apparve questa compatta e insieme articolata raccolta, la non esibita originalità del suo percorso interno valse a Giuseppe Conte la vittoria del premio Viareggio. Diverse le ragioni, a cominciare dall'ariosa, insolita e vitale apertura al canto che subito vi si impone, insieme ai diversi rivoli del pensiero che ne percorre le pagine e i capitoli, realizzando una testimonianza poetica dell'essere nel mondo nella sottile vibrazione delle emozioni che l'accompagnano. Con la fluida eleganza aperta della sua pronuncia, in quella che definisce come l'«assurda gioia di essere vivo», Conte porta sulla scena della pagina l'amore e il dolore, che sempre nell'umano vivere si insinua. "Ferite", dunque, che inevitabilmente ci colpiscono, ma anche felici riprese, e quindi autentiche "rifioriture". Il poeta ascolta la memoria, quella personale, ma anche quella storica, sempre attiva nello scorrere del tempo che inesorabilmente ci muta. La sua parola dialoga con l'esempio dei grandi autori prediletti, da Hölderlin a Baudelaire, da Ungaretti e Milosz a Kavafis e Ginsberg. Ma Conte procede muovendosi ben fedele all'amato territorio ligure, e al contempo visitando e facendosi coinvolgere da altri mondi, dall'Aquitania all'isola Maurizio, luoghi sempre in grado di offrire alla sua sensibilità nuove tracce di apertura. Dedica poi versi alla divinità ctonia, a Persefone, nel segno del mito, tema ben radicato nel cuore della sua vicenda umana e di scrittore. Il suo pensiero è sempre libero e limpido, pur nelle ombre che il vissuto ci riserva e che tanto spesso ci colgono inattese. Ed eccolo allora in un quotidiano confronto con la materia, «la madre nostra comune», nella desolazione della precarietà e dunque nella consapevolezza che «tutto scompare». Ma la mobilità del suo pensiero gli consente non di meno di cogliere l'azione dello «Spirito che ci genera / come uomini e ci dà il canto», facendo di "Ferite e rifioriture" un testo di molteplice e inesausta vitalità.Giuseppe Conte (Imperia, 1945), poeta e narratore, ha pubblicato raccolte di poesia, saggi e romanzi, sui temi della natura dell'eros e del mito. Autore di resoconti di viaggi, cultore appassionato del mito, ha tradotto poesie di Blake, Whitman, D. H. Lawrence e Shelley. Tra le raccolte di poesia: L'Oceano e il Ragazzo (BUR, 1983 e TEA, 2002); Le stagioni (BUR, 1988, Premio Montale); Ferite e rifioriture (Mondadori, 2006, Premio Viareggio); Poesie 1983-2015 (Oscar Mondadori, 2015); Non finirò di scrivere sul mare (Mondadori, 2019). Tra i suoi romanzi: Il terzo ufficiale (Longanesi, 2002, Premio Hemingway); La casa delle onde (Longanesi, 2005, Selezione Premio Strega); L'adultera (Longanesi, 2008, Premio Manzoni); Il male veniva dal mare (Longanesi, 2013); Sesso e apocalisse a Istanbul (Giunti, 2018); I senza cuore (Giunti, 2019); Dante in Love (Giunti, 2021) e Il mito greco e la manutenzione dell'anima (Giunti, 2021).

Aristotle said Oedipus the King was the best tragedy. Today, Dcn. Harrison Garlick is joined by Mr. Eli Stone and our friend Josiah to discuss Oedipus the King (Oedipus Rex) by Sophocles - the second play in the Oedipus cycle or Theban plays.Check out thegreatbookspodcast.com for our reading schedule and more!Check out our Patreon for our written guides!Here is a letter Dcn. Garlick wrote to our supporters about Oedipus the King:Oedipus the King is, according to Aristotle, the best of the Greek tragedies. Through Oedipus' own investigation, he comes to understand the horrific truth of his identity—and this leads the reader into marvelous reflection on fate, freedom, self-knowledge, and the cosmic order.Oedipus the King is a play I had to come to appreciate. Unlike Antigone, it is not one I loved at first. In fact, my lackluster appreciation for the play is why I scheduled only one episode discussing it. Over time, however, I matured in my own understanding and see it as an antecedent to the philosophical principle of know thyself. I would suggest one could glean much from comparing Oedipus the King and First Alcibiades by Plato.The drama does have layers for the attentive reader. It presents clearly a question on the interplay of freedom and fate, which is reminiscent of our discussions on the Iliad. Moreover, there is much to consider on the theme of suffering, and how that theme is presented in the Odyssey, the Oresteia, and Oedipus the King. Note that these two concepts are tethered—as the journey to self-knowledge is often an arduous one of suffering and great difficulty. Lastly, the work shines further light onto the mystery that is Antigone.Oedipus the King is without question a tragedy—and one without much hope. The reader must hold for the marvelous redemptive arc of Oedipus at Colonus, which runs parallel to the story of Job yet with its own unique and fascinating character.May Oedipus serve as an icon for what it means to suffer into self-knowledge and the role of such suffering in the pursuit of wisdom and virtue.Check our thegreatbookspodcast.com for more!

Does Antigone hold strong until the end? Is Antigone the hero? Today, Dcn. Garlick is joined again by David Niles and Dr. Frank Grabowski to discuss the second part of Sophocles' Antigone. Check out thegreatbookspodcast.com for our reading schedule!Check out our Patreon page! We appreciate all our supporters.From our guide:15. How does Haemon's interaction with Creon highlight his character and challenge Creon's perspective?Haemon, Creon's son and Antigone's betrothed, enters around line 700 and is described by David as “one of my favorite characters” for his wisdom and patience, contrasting with Creon's “chaotic” and “irrational” behavior. Haemon employs “masterful rhetoric,” as Dcn. Garlick contends, that balances filial piety with a Socratic challenge to Creon's stubbornness, urging him to reconsider his decree to execute Antigone. He suggests the polis mourns for Antigone, saying, “It's for me to catch the murmurs in the dark, the way the city mourns for this young girl” (ln. 775), undermining Creon's belief that the polis supports him. Dr. Grabowski notes Haemon's “epistemological challenge,” raising “human fallibility” and the “voice of the people” to suggest Creon may have erred. However, Creon's ironic responses, like “Are you coming now raving against your father or do you love me no matter what I do?” (ln. 707), reveal his fixation on his own political authority and the familial piety Haemon owes him. Sophocles makes Creon an incredibly ironic character, who will often advise to others exactly what he himself should be doing.16. How does Creon's character evolve in the latter half of the drama?Creon (arguably) begins the play prioritizing the polis' common good, but in the second half, there is a “shift” toward tyranny as his view becomes myopically focused on his own authority. Initially, he justifies leaving Polyneices unburied as justice for being a traitor, but by line 748, he declares, “The man the city places in authority, his orders must be obeyed, large and small, right and wrong,” signaling a move from considerations of justice to his own authority. The standard by which he makes his decision seems to shift. His question, “Am I to rule this land for others or myself?” (ln. 823), elicits Haemon's rebuke, “It's no city at all owned by one man alone” (ln. 824). Creon's claim, “Show me the man who rules his household well. I'll show you someone fit to rule the state” (ln. 739), is deeply ironic, as he fails to rule his household, foreshadowing his spiral into tragedy. His fixation on anarchy as “a greater crime in all the earth” (ln. 752) over blasphemy further reveals his “blindness” to the divine, cementing his “de-evolution” into tyranny, as Dcn. Garlick notes. Under Creon, the cosmos whole that was first interpreted through the political now seems to simply be reducible to Creon's will. He becomes the tyrant.Check out our guide for more!

Dalle loro parole si scopre perché stanno scappando, perché hanno mutato i loro nomi in Antigone, Ecuba, Edipo e Dioniso e quale segreto celano le loro maschere. La riunione clandestina inizia con l'ascolto di una registrazione che i quattro hanno portato con sé. È l'ultima lezione del loro insegnante di Greco e di Latino, in cui il professor Federico si scaglia contro la monarchia imprenditoriale, il mercato schiavistico del lavoro, la deformante statalizzazione della cultura e la futura formazione scolastica sul web, senza maestri; auspica un'era dionisiaca e inneggia alla clandestinità di vita e di studio. Il preside irrompe in classe pistola in pugno e lo dichiara in arresto. Un testo da leggersi per sé o da dirsi ovunque (in treno, al tavolo di un bar, sulle panchine di un parco…), scritto in una lingua tesa a creare nuove oralità e aperta a contaminazioni musicali; una riflessione sul diritto allo studio, la violenza e la libertà, alla luce di un inedito mito contemporaneo.Marco Gobetti.

I'm reading and talking about Ted Gioia's "Immersive Humanities Course," 52 weeks of World Classics.Ted listed SIX Greek dramas for this week: Bacchae (Euripides), Lysistrata (Aristophanes), Agamemnon (Aeschylus), and the three Theban plays from Sophocles, Oedipus the King, Oedipus in Colonus and Antigone. We discuss how to read drama in general. I tried to read a little bit of background on each play before I dove in. One thing that's easy to forget with Greek drama is that the audience didn't have any spoilers; they knew all of these stories really well. They were there to see HOW it came together. That meant that some of the plot gets treated with shorthand in some ways. I tried to figure out the major players, and how they might have interacted with characters I had met elsewhere. It's astonishing how all of these characters are connected by one or two degrees of separation. Bill and I joke that it feels exactly like when we moved to Charleston a couple of years ago. I swear that every person we meet knows someone else we know through one or two people. It's the strangest thing, and Greek drama is exactly like that.I also flag my books like crazy: one flag for the cast of characters; one for the endnotes; one for a map, even if it's in a different book. As a matter of fact, my Fagles translation of the Odyssey came in handy this week. Not only are there some great maps, there is also a glossary of all the proper names in the Odyssey. Many, many of the characters I came across this week also put in an appearance in the Odyssey.Finally, I kept a brief “plot summary” of each play as I read. Only Bacchae was divided into scenes, but for each play I tried to keep a brief synopsis of the action as I read. This kept me from mixing up characters too much, and also it helped me to get an idea of how the various stories fit together. In addition, I read out loud occasionally, especially if I found myself alone in the house. It's easy to lose the thread of some of these long passages, especially where the chorus has an extended explication of action taking place off stage. Reading out loud helped me capture the rhythm of the language and also the drama of it in a way that reading silently could never do.I started with Euripedes' Bacchae, translated by Paul Woodruff. To be honest, half the reason I bought this edition was that it had Elvis on the cover as Dionysus! Not long after the founding of Thebes, Dionysus appears to bring his cult to the city. Dionysus is a son of Zeus but also the grandson of the founder of Thebes, Cadmus. Dionysus' cousin Pentheus is now king, and he refuses to acknowledge the god-status of Dionysus. Let's just say Pentheus regretted that decision. This play was shockingly brutal to me, even though all the violence always takes place off-stage in a Greek drama. There are ideas of redemption, and lack of it, woven throughout the play. Bacchae left me curious about anything related to the practice of the cult of Dionysus. Apparently the rites were so secret that nothing, not one thing, survives to help us understand what they did.Next I read Aristophanes' Lysistrata. This is a comedy, truly a farce, whose entire plot revolves around the women of Greece coming together to deny all their men sex so they will quit fighting with each other. It is hilarious, and I'd love to see this one performed live. I love a good marriage quote:“No man can live a happy life unless his wife allows it.”—AristophanesHappily, I bought an edition of Lysistrata that also had three other plays translated by Aaron Poochigian. Clouds, in particular, is a send-up of Socrates and that one is...

Antigone is the "dark sign from the gods." Today, Dcn. Harrison Garlick is joined by Mr. David Niles of the Catholic Man Show and Dr. Frank Grabowski to discuss the Greek tragedy "Antigone" by Sophocles.Check out thegreatbookspodcast.com for our reading schedule!Check out our Patreon for our guide on Antigone!From the guide:This guide, like the podcast conversation, explores Antigone as a profound meditation on piety, justice, and the cosmic order. This guide addresses critical aspects of arguably Sophocles' greatest work, such as: the moral conflict over burying the dead, the contrasting perspectives of Antigone, Ismene, and Creon, and the play's potential as an early articulation of natural law—all while highlighting Sophocles' role as a teacher shaping Greek thought.The guide also moves from Greek notion of piety and justice to comparative Christian ethics. The goal is to help the reader love Antigone and see the cosmic order it reveals through one of the greatest female characters in Western literature.What has occurred just prior to the start of Antigone?Just before the events of Sophocles' Antigone, the city of Thebes has been ravaged by a civil war between Antigone's two brothers, Eteocles and Polyneices, who are sons of the late Oedipus, the former king. After Oedipus' tragic downfall and death, the brothers were meant to share the throne, but a dispute led to conflict. Eteocles held power in Thebes, while Polyneices, exiled, rallied an army to attack the city and reclaim his right to rule. The brothers met on the battlefield and killed each other in combat, leaving Thebes without a clear ruler. Their uncle, Creon, assumes the throne and declares Eteocles a patriot, granting him a proper burial, while branding Polyneices a traitor, forbidding his burial under penalty of death. This decree sets the stage for the moral and familial conflict at the heart of Antigone, as Antigone and her sister Ismene grapple with the consequences of their brothers' deaths and Creon's edict.What is the central moral conflict introduced at the beginning of Antigone?The central moral conflict revolves around the duty to bury the dead, specifically Antigone's desire to bury her brother, Polyneices, who has been declared a traitor by their uncle, King Creon. Creon decrees that Polyneices' body must remain unburied, to be “torn apart by the dogs, by the birds,” as punishment for his betrayal of Thebes. Antigone, however, sees the burial as a moral obligation, rooted in familial piety and divine law. The burial of the brother, however, is a catalyst to deeper moral concerns, as how to resolve this moral conflict invites the reader to contemplate how the family, polis, and divine all align with one another within the cosmos. It is a question of law, piety, and justice.Check out more on our Patreon!

durée : 00:03:10 - Le Regard culturel - par : Lucile Commeaux - Jean Bellorini signe la mise en scène d'un spectacle d'après Sophocle avec neuf jeunes femmes qui ont fui le régime des talibans — une interprétation qui ne sacrifie pas la justesse théâtrale aux conditions exceptionnelles dans lesquelles elle nous arrive.

Le metteur en scène Jean Bellorini revisite le thème d'Antigone avec l'Afghan Girls Théater. Une adaptation de la pièce de Sophocle en langue dari, l'une des deux langues officielles d'Afghanistan.  Lorsque les Talibans prennent le pouvoir en Afghanistan en août 2021, la performeuse Kubra Khademi lance un appel pour aider les artistes qui cherchent à fuir le pays. L'Afghan Girls Theater Group, compagnie de neuf jeunes comédiennes, sont parmi les dernières personnes à fuir le pays en 2021. Elles sont alors accueillies par Joris Lacoste (directeur du Théâtre Nouvelle Génération) et Jean Bellorini, qui les font alors travailler sur une adaptation de la pièce de Sophocle, Antigone. C'était un véritable acte de résistance pour ces femmes de faire du théâtre en AfghanistanLa figure d'Antigone est un symbole de résistance. Dans la mythologie grecque, Antigone est la fille née de l'union incestueuse d'Œdipe et de sa mère, Jocaste. Elle est aussi la sœur d'Etéocle et de Polynice qui se sont entre-tués lors de la guerre des Sept chefs. Le Roi Créon, également oncle d'Antigone, refuse une sépulture à Polynice qu'il juge responsable de cette guerre fratricide, il se veut intraitable et menace de mort quiconque transgresserait cette loi. Antigone va pourtant braver cette interdiction et sera condamnée à mort par son oncle. Un véritable message de résistance pour leurs consœurs restées à Kaboul...  Invité : Jean Bellorini, directeur du TNP (Théâtre national Populaire de Villeurbanne).  Le TNP est une institution centenaire de la scène de théâtre française fondé par Firmin Gémier en 1920. C'était, à l'origine, un théâtre ambulant qui avait à cœur de rendre le théâtre populaire. Depuis 2002, Jean Bellorini adapte des textes de grands auteurs tels que Victor Hugo, Alexandre Pouchkine, Rabelais, Proust. En 2023, il met en scène  Les Messagères, une adaptation de la pièce Antigone de Sophocle.À voir au théâtre des Bouffes du Nord du 4 au 13 avril 2025.  Programmation musicale : L'artiste Gabi Hartmann, Salinda la fille aux yeux de sel.

Watch the Q&A session here: https://youtu.be/gQdabAQT3JwSophocles' Antigone refers to “unwritten laws,” as does Thucydides' Pericles. From the late fifth century BCE, the idea that laws are more effective when learned by memory and observation than when put into writing, forms a distinctive current in political reflections. Plutarch would even claim that the Spartan lawgiver Lycurgus had prohibited the writing down of his laws. This lecture will present Greek authors' reflections on the interplay between writing and orality remain relevant to debates about ethical formation today. This lecture was recorded by Melissa Lane on 20th February 2025 at Barnard's Inn Hall, London.Melissa Lane is Gresham Professor of Rhetoric.Melissa is also the Class of 1943 Professor of Politics, Princeton University and is also Associated Faculty in the Department of Classics and Department of Philosophy.

İnsan hikayeler anlatır. Kimi zaman zaferleri, kimi zaman kayıpları... Ama en çok da çatışmaları. Peki, neden binlerce yıl önce yazılmış trajediler hâlâ bizi derinden sarsıyor? 111 Hz'in bu bölümünde kadim metinlerin derinliklerine iniyor, Antigone'nin hikâyesiyle trajedinin zamanlar ötesi gücünü keşfediyoruz. Belki de her iyilik çabası, içinde bir trajedi ihtimalini de taşır. Trajediler, iyi olma mücadelesinin etrafında şekillenir; ancak bu mücadelenin, en karanlık ihtimalleri bile barındırdığını hatırlatır.Sunan: Barış ÖzcanHazırlayan: Uğur YıldırımSes Tasarım ve Kurgu: Metin BozkurtYapımcı: Podbee Media------- Podbee Sunar -------Bu podcast, Hiwell hakkında reklam içerir.Hiwell'de 1600'den fazla uzman arasından ücretsiz ön görüşmelerle size en uygun uzmanı seçebilir, kendinizi tanıma yolculuğunuza kolay ve güvenilir bir şekilde başlayabilirsiniz.

Bonnie Honig embodies the public intellectual like few others. With her funny and fine-edged essays analyzing Trump's shock politics, the significance of Stranger Things' popularity, and feminist resources for defending democracy. At the same time, she is one of the world's foremost democratic theorists, combining sources as diverse as Nietzsche, Arendt, Rousseau, Lars von Trier, 12 Angry Men, Antigone and gothic romance novels in her writings on democracy.One of the major themes of her work is how contestation, rather than consensus, should be central in a democracy. She is a founding thinker of the agonistic democratic movement, driving its inspiration from the ancient Greek culture's emphasis on the agon, for struggle. In recent work she explores how ‘public things', like education, national parks and healthcare, are a precondition for democracy – but are often under pressure from privatization and neoliberalism.Tonight, Honig enters into conversation with Arnon Grunberg. They will talk about public things, emergency and shock politics, her feminist interpretations of Hannah Arendt and democracy in disrepair. Bastiaan Rijpkema, who wrote an introduction to the first Dutch translation of one of Honig's works: Publieke dingen, will introduce the evening.In collaboration with Leiden University.Check out the privacy notice on https://art19.com/privacy and the privacy statement of California on https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.Zie het privacybeleid op https://art19.com/privacy en de privacyverklaring van Californië op https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

The band Horsegirl is three best friends from Chicago who began playing together while still in high school. But their 2022 debut album, Versions of Modern Performance, showed a band that already had a distinctive sound that showed that DIY didn't necessarily mean simple. With two of the three musicians now attending NYU, the band has moved here to New York. Taking a break from Antigone and Oedipus, they're here to play some songs from their new album, called Phonetics On And On. Horsegirl plays in-studio. Set list: 1. Where'd You Go 2.

Guendalina Middei"Sopravvivere al lunedì mattina con Lolita"Feltrinelli Editorewww.feltrinellieditore.itSopravvivere, resistere, nuotare negli abissi, tornare a splendere. Dopo il successo di Innamorarsi di Anna Karenina il sabato sera, Guendalina Middei ci racconta, attraverso i grandi classici, una storia di rinascita. Un viaggio tra gli autori, le indimenticabili figure femminili e gli antieroi della letteratura antica e moderna. Ulisse, Lolita, Antigone, Ivàn Karamazov, lady Chatterley, il lupo della steppa non sono semplici personaggi letterari: le loro passioni ci sono familiari, il loro coraggio ci seduce, la loro morte ci commuove. L'Odissea non è solo la storia di un uomo che ritorna a casa, ma è anche la storia di chi si riappropria del proprio tempo e della propria anima. Hermann Hesse ci ricorda che un conto è intuirsi, un altro è trovarsi. E quante volte dubitiamo delle nostre scelte e temiamo di non farcela, come è successo a Dante? Leggere e rileggere i classici con Guendalina Middei è un antidoto alla stupidità, al conformismo, alla superficialità. E un modo per ritrovarsi nelle pagine dei libri, perché è questo che cerchiamo: la scoperta di non essere soli. Chi meglio di maestri senza tempo può capire le inquietudini di un giovane e trasformare il dolore in bellezza? Chi può mostrarci come difenderci dai paladini delle grandi certezze e salvarci dalle insidie del troppo amore? Non importa se vi siete già appassionati alla lettura dei classici o li avete scoperti da poco; qui troverete le chiavi d'accesso a un mondo segreto. In un dialogo a tu per tu con i grandi autori del passato, fatto di domande, illuminazioni e rapimenti, che fa sorridere e commuovere, l'autrice si confessa e ci racconta quei libri che più di tutti hanno portato scompiglio nella sua vita. Perché tutto ciò che ha il potere di turbarci e sorprenderci finisce per salvarci. )Guendalina Middei é un'autrice italiana. Nata a Roma nel 1992, fin da adolescente coltiva la sua grande passione per la letteratura e la cultura classica. Laureata in Lettere e con un master in Giornalismo culturale, ha scritto per diversi giornali e riviste tra cui “Critica Letteraria” e “Culturificio” e “Sintesi Dialettica”.Nel 2019 ha aperto la pagina Facebook Professor X e nel 2022 il profilo Instagram, oggi punti di riferimento per oltre cinquecentomila lettori appassionati o incuriositi dalla letteratura.Tra i suoi titoli, Clodio (Navarra Editore, 2022), Intervista con un matto (Navarra Editore, 2023), Innamorarsi di Anna Karenina il sabato sera.

Two novels explore the way that violence and loss can ripple across a village, town – or even entire countries. First, in Karina Sainz Borgo's No Place to Bury the Dead, a plague that causes amnesia runs rampant across an unnamed Latin American country. One mother's flight brings her to a border-town cemetery that operates on disputed land. In today's episode, Borgo joins NPR's Elissa Nadworny for a conversation that touches on the importance of death rituals, the myth of Antigone, and a real-life cemetery that exists along the border between Venezuela and Colombia. Then, Tana French has described her novels The Searcher and its sequel, The Hunter, as her take on the American Western. The novels follow Cal Hooper, a retired Chicago police officer who moves to rural Ireland. In The Hunter, the life Cal has built in Ardnakelty is complicated by an unexpected arrival. In today's episode, French speaks with Here & Now's Chris Bentley about her interest in writing from an outsider's perspective, the tension between blood and chosen family, and the particular experience of life in a small town.To listen to Book of the Day sponsor-free and support NPR's book coverage, sign up for Book of the Day+ at plus.npr.org/bookofthedayLearn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy

Il presidente tedesco Frank-Walter Steinmeier ha deciso lo scioglimento del Bundestag, il parlamento tedesco, fissando le elezioni anticipate per il 23 febbraio. La decisione, ampiamente prevista, viene dopo la crisi del governo del cancelliere socialdemocratico Olaf Scholz e in un momento di pesante crisi economica per la Germania. Ne parliamo con Tonia Mastrobuoni, giornalista dalla Germania per Repubblica. Il 2024 è stato l’anno in cui si sono uccise più persone nelle carceri italiane da quando vengono raccolti dati di questo genere: finora sono state 88. Preoccupa anche il fronte minorile, il numero dei ragazzi e delle ragazze reclusi negli istituti penali per minorenni è salito del 32%, passando dai 436 di fine agosto 2023 ai 576 del 30 novembre 2024. Ne discutiamo insieme a Alessio Scandurra, coordinatore dell'osservatorio nazionale sulle condizioni di detenzione degli adulti dell'associazione Antigone e Raffaella Calandra, Il Sole 24 Ore.

“All the natural movements of the soul are controlled by laws analogous to those of physical gravity. Grace is the only exception.” … “It is necessary to uproot oneself. To cut down the tree and make of it a cross, and then to carry it every day.” … “I have to imitate God who infinitely loves finite things in that they are finite things.” … “To know that what is most precious is not rooted in existence—that is beautiful. Why? It projects the soul beyond time.”(Simone Weil, Gravity & Grace)“That's how the figure of Christ comes into this idea of the madness of love. It's that kind of mad, self emptying act completely. And it's the  one thing, she says, it's the only thing that means that you  are able to love properly. Because to love properly, and therefore to be just properly, you have to love like Christ does. Which is love to the extent that you, that you empty yourself and, you know, die on a cross.” (Deborah Casewell, from this episode)This is the third installment of a short series on How to Read Simone Weil—as the Mystic, the Activist, and the Existentialist.This week, Evan Rosa invites Deborah Casewell, Associate Professor of Philosophy at the University of Chester, author of Monotheism & Existentialism, and Co-Director of the Simone Weil Research Network in the U.K.—to explore how to read Simone Weil the Existentialist.Together they discuss how her life of extreme self-sacrifice importantly comes before her philosophy; how to understand her central, but often confusing concept of decreation; her approach to beauty as the essential human response for finding meaning in a world of force and necessity; the madness of Jesus Christ as the only way to engage in struggle for justice and how she connects that to the Greek tragedy of Antigone, which is the continuation of the Oedipus story; and, the connection between love, justice, and living a life of madness.About Simone WeilSimone Weil (1909–1943) was a French philosopher, mystic, and political activist. She's the author of Gravity and Grace, The Need for Roots, and Waiting for God—among many other essays, letters, and notes.About Deborah CasewellDeborah Casewell is Associate Professor of Philosophy at the University of Chester, author of Monotheism & Existentialism, and is Co-Director of the Simone Weil Research Network in the U.K.Show NotesSimone Weil's Gravity & Grace (1947) (Available Online)Deborah Casewell's Monotheism & ExistentialismSimone de Beauvoir's anecdote in Memories of a Beautiful Daughter: “Shouldn't we also get people's minds, not just their bodies? Weil: “You've never been hungry have you?”Leon Trotsky yells violently at WeilThe odd idolizing of Weil without paying attention to her writing”You get a kind of, as you say, a kind of odd idolization of her, or a sense in which  you can't then interact so critically   or systematically with her philosophy, because her figure stands in the way so much, and the kind of the respect that people have.”Anti-Semitism despite JewishnessSimone Weil's relationship to food: an unhealthy role model“She'd reject anything that wasn't perfect.”Extreme germophobeExpression of solidarity with the unfortunateHer life comes before her philosophy. Being, you might say, comes before thinking.Weil's life of extreme self-sacrifice as “mad”—alienating, insane, strange to the outside world.“ I think an essential part of, to an essential part of understanding her is to understand that   world is kind of structured and  set up in such a way that it runs without God, without the supernatural, God's kind of abdicated through the act of creation. And as a result, the universe operates through necessity and through force. So left to its own devices, the universe, I think, tends towards crushing people.”Abandonment vs abdicationPeople possess power and ability and action—a tension between activity and passivityWeil's Marxism and theory of labor and workActivity becomes sustained passivityConsent, power, and the social dynamics of force and necessityI think she sees the best human existence is to be in a state of obedience instead. And so what you have to do is relinquish power over people.The complexity of human relationships“She was a very individual person … a singular, individual life.”The Need for Roots“And this is what I do like about Simone Weil—is that she's always happy to let contradictions exist. And so when she describes human nature and the needs of the soul, they're contradictory. They all contradict each other. It's freedom and obedience.”Creating dualismsShe is a dualistSimone Weil on Beauty and Decreation”Decreation is essentially your way to exist in the world ruled by force and necessity without succumbing  to force and necessity, because in a way there's less  of you to succumb to force and necessity.”Platonic idea of MetaxuWeil on the human experience of beauty—” people need beautiful things and they need experiences of beauty in order to exist in the world, fundamentally… if this world is ruled by force and necessity.”The unity of the transcendentals of beauty and truth and goodness—anchored in GodWeil's PlatonismWeil as religious existentialist, as opposed to French atheistic existentialist“ For her, God is the ultimate reality, but also God is love. And so the goal of human existence, I think, is to return to God and consent to God. That's the goal of human life.”“What are you paying attention to?”The madness of ChristThe struggle for justice“Only a few people have this desire for justice, this madness to love.”Existentialism and Humanism: “Sartre says that  man is nothing but what he makes of himself.”Making oneself an example“The real supernatural law, which is mad and unreasonable, and it doesn't try to make accommodations and get on with the world and deal with tricky situations. It's just mad.”Simone Weil on Antigone and the continuation of the Oedipus storySummary of the Greek tragedy, Antigone“And so Antigone says, the justice that I owe is not to the city. It's not so that the city can, you know, continue its life and move on. The justice that I owe is to the supernatural law, to these more important primordial laws that actually govern the  life and death situations and the situation of your soul as well. And that's why she does what she does. She's obedient to the unwritten law rather than the written law.”“The love of God and the justice of God is always going to be mad in the eyes of the world.””The spirit of justice is nothing other than the supreme and perfect flower of the madness of love.”The mad, self-emptying love of Christ“That's how the figure of Christ comes into this idea of the madness of love. It's that kind of mad, self emptying act completely. And it's the  one thing, she says, it's the only thing that means that you  are able to love properly. Because to love properly, and therefore to be just properly, you have to love like Christ does. Which is love to the extent that you, that you empty yourself and, you know, die on a cross.”Does Weil suggest an unhealthy desire to suffer?“ It hurls one into risks one cannot run. If one has given one's heart to anything at all that belongs to this world. Um, and the outcome to which the madness of love led Christ is, after all, no recommendation for it.”“But if the order of the universe is a wise order, there must sometimes be moments when, from the point of view of earthly reason, only the madness of love is reasonable. Such moments can only be those when, as today, mankind has become mad from want of love. Is it certain today that the madness of love may not be capable of providing the unhappy masses, hungry in body and soul, with a food far easier for them to digest than our inspirations to a less lofty source? So then, being what we are, is it certain that we are at our post in the camp of justice?”“ From a loftier view, only the madness of love is reasonable.”“Only the madness of love can be the kind of love that actually helps people in the world. Fundamentally, that people, even though they know it's mad, and they find it mad, and they would sometimes rather not see it, they need that kind of love, and they need people who love in that kind of way. Even if it's not the majority, people still  need that. And so in some way, the way in which  she is, and the way in which she sees Christ being, is indispensable. Even though the path that you have to go down has nothing to recommend, as she says, in the eyes of the reasonable world, nothing to recommend it. It's the only just thing to do. It's the only just and loving thing to do in the end.”Production NotesThis podcast featured Deborah CasewellEdited and Produced by Evan RosaHosted by Evan RosaProduction Assistance by Macie Bridge, Alexa Rollow, Emily Brookfield, and Zoë HalabanA 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

Ieri l'associazione Antigone ha presentato l'ultimo report del 2024, aggiornato al 16 dicembre, in cui evidenzia come la popolazione detenuta in carcere stia continunado a crescere. Il reframe purtroppo è più o meno lo stesso: a fronte di una capienza effettiva di 47mila posti, le persone detenute in Italia sono oltre 62mila, con un tasso di sovraffollamento del 132,6%. Intanto a Gaza è arrivato l'inverno, gli sfollati non hanno di che ripararsi e gli aiuti umanitari faticano ad arrivare, mentre il premier slovacco Robert Fico incontra il presidente russo Vladimir Putin. ...

In July, a Cassin's kingbird (Tyrannus vociferans) calls from the edge between grassland and pine in Montana, USA. Three months later, I'm among Cassin's kingbirds again but 2000 miles farther south, in their winter range in Oaxaca, Mexico. Over the past year, my life has traced the path of these migratory Cassin's kingbirds—a journey that, for me, has involved falling in love and spending months far away from the Montana landscape I know and love. This is a story of migration, of the memories that birdsongs carry, and of finding a connection to the earth that spans time and space.  Along this journey, we meet many birds and hear their voices. Among the recordings featured in this podcast are Montana sounds of Cassin's kingbird, common yellowthroat (Geothlypis trichas), grasshopper sparrow (Ammodramus savannarum), Lincoln's sparrow (Melospiza lincolnii), sandhill crane (Antigone canadensis), Savannah sparrow (Passerculus sandwichensis), vesper sparrow (Pooecetes gramineus), and western meadowlark (Sturnella neglecta) recorded by me, Shane Sater. From Oaxaca, I share recordings of a Bewick's wren (Thryomanes bewickii), lark sparrow (Chondestes grammacus), lesser goldfinch (Spinus psaltria), loggerhead shrike (Lanius ludovicianus), western kingbird (Tyrannus verticalis), and white-throated towhee (Melozone albicollis). Many thanks to Manuel Grosselet of Tierra de Aves (https://www.tierradeaves.com/) and Jay McGowan of the Cornell Lab of Ornithology for giving me permission to use their Oaxacan recordings of Cassin's kingbirds. I depend on the support of my listeners to continue doing this work.

Alex Petkas of Cost of Glory discusses leaving academia and how the ivory towers are no longer a place for excellence and high agency people but conformity and mediocrity. He explains why Plutarch is more important than you think and how the ancient Greeks and Romans are the model of manliness and hero culture for the West. He points out ancient elite dynamics and past history which rhymes with the present.

What if Antigone had a happy ending, or if Oedipus was blind before he ever reached the city of Thebes? Liv speaks with Toph Marshall about the lost but not forgotten fragments of Euripides' Oedipus and Antigone. Submit your questions to the quarterly Q&A episodes! CW/TW: far too many Greek myths involve assault. Given it's fiction, and typically involves gods and/or monsters, I'm not as deferential as I would be were I referencing the real thing.
