Podcast appearances and mentions of Ariel Dorfman

The United States has gone, in less than six months, from being seen by many as a defender of democracy and human rights, to being the latest – and most powerful - administration to embrace authoritarianism.  Amid a head-spinning flood of presidential orders and harsh policies - towards women, immigrants, the poor, the disabled and the sick, it's hard to know where to focus. In this episode, veteran Turkish journalist and human rights activist Murat Celikkan tells host Akwe Amosu what he has been paying attention to, and reflects on how Turkey's human rights  movement has been trying to strengthen its own work.And in the Coda, why a dose of Baroque music might ease your mind. Contact us at pod@strengthandsolidarity.org We are now publishing our newsletter on Substack, if youwould like to subscribe: ⁠https://substack.com/@strengthsolidarity⁠Quick LinksInterviewBio: Murat Celikkan: https://hakikatadalethafiza.org/en/teamLitHub: Murat Celikkan: Another Turkish Journalist in Prison for ‘Unspecified Reasons' https://lithub.com/murat-celikkan-another-turkish-journalist-in-prison-for-unspecified-reasons/StrengthandSolidarity.org: Murat Celikkan reads Ariel Dorfman: https://strengthandsolidarity.org/podcast/rebuilding-a-movements-culture-after-crisis/Hafiza Merkezi: https://hakikatadalethafiza.org/en/en/why-hafiza-merkeziChatham House: The future of the Trukish opposition after Imamoglu's arrest https://www.chathamhouse.org/2025/05/future-turkish-opposition-after-imamoglus-arrestHRW: Turkey Events of o2024 https://www.hrw.org/world-report/2025/country-chapters/turkiyeWikipedia: Gezi Park protests https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gezi_Park_protestsWikipedia: Saturday mothers https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saturday_MothersCodaFrancoise Girard: https://www.fmus.org/aboutFeminism Makes Us Smarter (FMUS): https://www.fmus.org/Wikipedia: Baroque Music https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baroque_musicFMUS podcast: https://www.fmus.org/fmus-podcastMusic credits:Juditha triumphans, RV 644: Air "Veni, veni me sequere fida" by Antonio Vivaldi, performed by Lea Desandre, Jupiter Ensemble, Thomas DunfordJuditha triumphans, RV 644: “Air Armatae face et anguibus” by Antonio Vivaldi, performed by Jupiter EnsembleAriodante, HWV 33, Act 2: Aria.

Ariel Dorfman is a Chilean-American author, born in Argentina. He is a prominent human rights activist who worked as press and cultural advisor to Salvador Allende in the final months before the 1973 military coup, and later spent many years in exile. He is the Walter Hines Page Emeritus Professor of Literature at Duke University and the author of many books including his latest, Allegro: A Novel. The post Ariel Dorfman on the Role of Beauty During Times of Chaos appeared first on KPFA.

On this episode, we're joined by author and international human rights barrister Philippe Sands to talk about his latest book, 38 Londres Street, a gripping exploration of justice, memory, and impunity through the intertwining stories of Chilean dictator Augusto Pinochet and Nazi fugitive Walter Rauff who spent decades in Chile avoiding extradition.We consider the groundbreaking legal concept of universal jurisdiction through the lens of Pinochet's dramatic 1998 arrest in London—a defining moment that transformed international justice—and what it means for the complex geopolitics of today. Drawing inspiration from literary figures like Roberto Bolaño, Bruce Chatwin, and Ariel Dorfman, Sands blends detective-style nonfiction with profound moral complexity, tracing the ominous echoes among Nazi Germany, fascism, and the Cold War. He also tells us about the book's sensational reception in Chile, where the effects of his reporting have reignited long-suppressed debates about accountability and national memory. In typical fashion, we also cover everything from Pinochet's visit to Hatchards a few days before his arrest—where he reportedly bought every book he could find on Napoleon—to his compulsive viewing of Star Wars films while awaiting trial.

Författarna Hanna Rajs och Klara Wiksten är båda aktuella med böcker om att förlora sin mor. De kommer till P1 Kultur för att prata om hur man kan tänka och skriva om sorgen efter en mamma. Lyssna på alla avsnitt i Sveriges Radio Play. REPORTAGE: VAD VET VI EGENTLIGEN OM HÄLLRISTNINGAR? Ett kulturarvsmåste för många under sommarens bilturer är att stanna för att titta på hällristningarna som omger oss. De senaste 20 åren har forskningen och tolkningen av dessa kanske äldsta kvarvarande spår av konstnärliga samtal tagit stora kliv. Men länge var bilderna något att projicera alla möjliga idéer och fantasier kring. Nu kommer boken ”Hällristningarnas värld” av arkeologiprofessorn Johan Ling – med en ambition om att ge en samlad bild av vad vi vet – och trott oss veta – om de gåtfulla bilderna på klipporna. Reporter Jenny Teleman stämde träff med honom ute bland tecknen. KRITIKSAMTAL: ”DEATH AND THE MAIDEN” PÅ MALMÖ OPERA Den chilenske dramatikern Ariel Dorfman skrev den ursprungligen som teaterpjäs, och Roman Polanski gjorde 1994 en uppmärksammad film av den. 2008 hade Jonas Forsells opera med libretto av Dorfman själv urpremiär. Och nu spelas ”Death and the Maiden” i en helt ny uppsättning på samma scen. Hur står den sig? Vår kritiker Kristina Lindquist har sett operan om hämnd och försoning i efterdyningarna av en militärdiktatur som kanske är Chiles. ESSÄ: ATT MISSLYCKAS MED THOMAS BERNHARD ÄR EN GLÄDJE Att misslyckas är temat för veckans OBS-essäer, och i den här delen handlar det om en författare som ofta gestaltade just misslyckanden: österrikaren Thomas Bernhard. Men hans polemiska och pessimistiska prosa bär på en underbar musikalitet som man är dömd att misslyckas med att överföra till svenska, menar översättaren Jan Erik Bornlid.Programledare: Eskil Krogh LarssonProducent: Felicia Frithiof

"A Morte e a Donzela", de Ariel Dorfman, chega o dia 21 de maio ao Espaço Parlapatães, em SP. Escrita em 1990, “A Morte e a Donzela” ambienta-se no Chile, durante o período de transição para a democracia, logo após o fim da ditadura de Pinochet. O texto conta a história de Paulina Salas, uma ex-ativista que foi sequestrada e torturada durante o regime militar, e de Gerardo, advogado proeminente e militante dos Direitos Humanos. Eles são um casal que, alguns anos após o fim da ditadura, ainda convive com os fantasmas da tortura, das perdas e do medo. Por uma sucessão de acasos, Paulina se depara com Roberto Miranda, o homem que ela acredita ser o mais cruel de seus torturadores, dormindo em sua sala de estar. A partir deste ponto as ações e reações violentas de Paulina e Gerardo levantam questionamentos profundos sobre a elasticidade dos limites éticos em situações extremas. Hoje converso com Victor Barreto (@ovictorbarreto), ator, bailarino e produtor. Ama teatro, livros e pão na chapa com Nutella. Victor interpreta Gerardo em "A Morte e a Donzela". Ele estudou Teatro no Teatro Escola Célia Helena, cursa Interpretação na Academia Internacional do Cinema (AIC) e integra a Laia Do Teatro. Participou de diversas peças teatrais, campanhas publicitárias, videoclipes e espetáculos de dança clássica e contemporânea. Podemos destacar “Sobre Meus Sapatos”, o qual co-coreografou e foi contemplado no Edital Cultural do SESI-SP, “Mistura E Manda”, sob direção de Ciro Barcelos, e as temporadas paulista e carioca do musical Off-Broadway “Naked Boys Singing Brasil”.

Rebecca is a movement director, actress, and all round lover of the arts. She specialises in movement sequences for screen and stage. Rebecca and I both worked together at GSA on our public show Widows by Ariel Dorfman and Tony Kushner, and it was a pleasure to learn from her techniques and rehearsal activities to help myself and my peers immerse ourselves in the play, and find the inner journey of our characters. She is also incredibly passionate about just how important actors are to themselves and to the world with what they can do. We as actors show the world as it is, was, and what it could be. We share a physical and emotional bond to the public by sharing what others maybe scared to share, and make you laugh through moments in plays, films, dances that have happened in our own lives that have made you laugh. It was a sheer pleasure talking to Rebecca, and I hope you enjoy this episode as much as I did.

Yale philosopher Jason Stanley, author of "How Fascism Works," says nations don't have to be fascist to suffer fascist politics; Chilean American author Ariel Dorfman on Salvador Allende's victory 50 years ago; David Graeber, dead at 59, in his own words.

In this episode we discuss the strange magickal kingdom of Disney. All things occult, ritual and philosophical concerning the sacred sigil of Mickey Mouse and the dark magician Walt. Was Disneyland constructed upon a telluric current causing refracting vibrations for some greater purpose? Is there an exotic technology at the heart of The Magickal Kingdom? Are the characters and fables presented by the corporation a Trojan Horse for something far more sinister, or is the conspiracy community just projecting archetypes?  We also discuss Walter Bosley's Latitude 33: Key To The Kingdom, Tracy Twyman's The Secret of Minnie's Mousse, Ariel Dorfman and Armand Mattelart's How To Read Donald Duck, Robert W.

Hur gör tonsättare när de trollar fram den ljuvaste musik ur ord och bild? Hur många nottecken behövs för en opera? Möt tonsättarna Ylva Q Arkvik och Jonas Forssell. I det sjätte programmet i serien Ord och bild blir musik möter vi två tonsättare i vars verk orden har stor betydelse. Inte minst i deras operor: Ylva Q Arkvik och Jonas Forssell. Tonsättaren Ylva Q Arkvik skrev kammaroperan Solitario och stycket Tid läggs som tunt papper över beröringarna till poeten Eva Runefelts dikt Ödsligheten. Eva Runefelt är väldigt fri i sitt eget ord och jag känner att hon har ett centrum. Då blir det inte så svårt att flytta om hennes ord. För det vill jag nästan alltid för att kunna bygga upp en musikalisk form. Författaren Eva Ström skrev libretto till Arkviks opera Du får inte gå. En självmordsbombare tillbringar sin sista kväll hemma i en spänningsfylld lägenhet tillsammans med hustrun, som är lyckligt gravid med fjärde barnet. Kvinnan känner oro men vet inte om mannens grymma plan. Jag låter honom få en kärlekssång till granaten som träffar kroppen. Absurditeten hörs i hans falsettsång i galet läge. En terzett, skriven för kvinnan, mannen och en kvinnoröst ur TV:n, lättar upp stämningen där extrema känsloyttringar kolliderar, berättar Ylva Q Arkvik. Till projektet Vox pacis, en manifestation för fred och försoning, tonsatte hon kantaten A Challenge to Humanity med text av Sigrid Kahle. Trehundra körsångare och musiker från 15 länder representerade de främsta världsreligionerna. Titeln Mässa kunde vi inte använda, eftersom den är förknippad med kristendomen. En Kantat, däremot, kan vara värdslig. Kantanen inleds med ett musikaliskt gräl som stegras till forte fortissimo. Ur detta växer texten fram. Hur är det möjligt att vi har varit på denna jord i tusentals år och inte lärt oss förstå varandra? frågar sig Ylva Q Arkvik.  Ylva Q Arkviks nya pianostycke uruppfördes vid en Chopinafton vid Östersjöfestivalen 2010.   Tonsättaren Jonas Forssell räknade ut att det var 13 000 ord i librettot till egna operan Träskoprinsessan. Men det behövdes 300 000 nottecken. -Att tonsätta kräver inspiration men desto mer transpiration och hårt arbete, säger han. De flesta av Jonas Forssells nio operor har försoning som tema. Riket är ditt handlar om flyktingproblematik, Stadsmusikanterna om att försonas med sin egen dödlighet. Hans opera Death and the Maiden har libretto av Argentinskfödde författaren och dramatikern Ariel Dorfmann, som också skrev talpjäsen från 1990. - Malmöoperans stora kör gjorde det möjligt för mig att gestalta några av de 3 000 personer, vanliga människor, som Pinochetjuntan i Chile tog livet av. Försoning betyder inte att sorgen skall försvinna eller att man blir vän med förövaren, utan att man kan fortsätta att leva i ett tillstånd som inte är förgörande, säger Jonas Forssell. Hans far, författaren Lars Forssell, gav honom rådet att välja texter att tonsätta som hade "hål" I sig. De är inte fullkomliga utan kräver ytterligare en dimension för att gjuta ihop sig med musiken. Jonas Forssells opera Hemligheter, om vetenskapsmannen och magikern Emanuel Swedenborg, hade premiär februari 2011 vid Malmö opera, där Forssell var Composer-in-Residence. - Många operor är som Puccinis Tosca, med endast en kvinna men sju män på scenen. Det där tänker jag göra något åt. Hemligheter får endast en mansgestalt, Swedenborg själv. Alla andra roller i föreställningen, även de manliga, sjungs av kvinnor. Kvinnorösten har ett större omfång och är därför mer flexibel, anser Jonas Forssell.   Spellista:   Påsk 1968 - Ur "Tolv variationer till minne av W.B. Yeats Jonas Forssell, musik.

本期节目我们一起读的是Ariel Dorfman的剧本《死亡与少女》（Death and the Maiden），剧本很薄，通篇人物只有三个，场景也几乎没有改变，人物言谈行动之间却有极大的张力，读完也颇值得回味思考，可能是关于人性关于极权，也可能关乎法律与道德，一千个读者自会有一千个答案。根据该剧本改变的电影中文名叫做《不道德的审判》，私以为这个名字虽然更直白地点出了事件内容，却也带了一点点评判的味道。电影由罗曼·波兰斯基执导，西格妮·韦弗，本·金斯利，斯图尔特·威尔逊主演，算不得闲暇消遣的好选择，却是值得认真品味的好作品。本期配乐是舒伯特同名四重奏作品《Death and the Maiden》

Möte med den chilensk-amerikanske författaren och dramatikern Ariel Dorfman. Kerstin Berggren har träffat mannen bakom den kända pjäsen, filmen och nu också operan "Death and the Maiden" - en tät, psykologisk thriller som handlar om skuld, hämnd och försoning. Ariel Dorfman är en av Latinamerikas mest respekterade författare, med en lång rad pjäser, romaner, dikter och essäer i bagaget och han är översatt till mer än 40 språk. Han var ung i 70-talets Chile och arbetade som rådgivare till den demokratiskt valde presidenten Salvador Allende. När militären med general Pinochet i spetsen tog makten vid kuppen 1973 undgick Ariel Dorfman att dödas av Pinochet's trupper på grund av att han av en tillfällighet bytt pass med en kollega. Därefter följde en mycket farlig period och i programmet avslöjar Ariel Dorfman bland annat vem som räddade honom, vilket varit hemligt ända tills nu.

Melvyn Bragg examines how two writers' work have been shaped by political oppression and explores whether writers have a political role in modern society. The connection between writers and politics has its roots in classical times, but in the 20th century the writer has been called on as the witness with increasing frequency and intensity. And many times the price of articulation has been severe. In the century in which saw the execution of writers such as Ken Saro Wiwa in Nigeria in 1995, and a fatwa imposed on Salman Rushdie, Melvyn Bragg talks to two writers who between them experienced exile, censorship and the manipulation of authoritarian states - Ariel Dorfman from South America and Nadine Gordimer, the Nobel Prize winner from South Africa, to discuss the writing of fiction and political oppression. What, if any, is the writer's political role in our world today?With Nadine Gordimer, Nobel Prize-winning South African novelist; Ariel Dorfman, South American journalist, scholar and author of Death and the Maiden.
