Zachary Ugolnik has for years been charting a new path that refuses the tired and inanimate narrative about the separateness of science and spirituality, reason and religion. In his life we find rich possibility when those old illusory dichotomies are discarded, and from that possibility perhaps new wisdom for creating a society full of care and flourishing, one that embraces our inherent needfulness and borrows from theology, ecology, and the social sciences. Origins Podcast WebsiteFlourishing Commons NewsletterShow Notes:locate shared spaces of curiosity across disciplines (11:50)Émile Durkheim and collective effervescence (13:45)Center for Advanced Study in the Behavioral Sciences (CASBS) at Stanford University (14:10 and 16:20)through lines between religion and social science (13:45)Victor and Edith Turner  communitas (15:00)Simone Weil decreation (18:30)re-membering (22:00)Zach's book: The Collective Self (18:30)Theater of War (24:00)Byzantine iconography and perspective (26:00)Picasso "Le Taureau" (26:20)The Social Science of Caregiving (27:30)Flourishing Knowledge Commons (27:45)Margaret Levi communities of fate (27:50)"Mobilizing in the Interest of Others" by Levi and Ugolnik (30:00)Buddhism and interdependence (31:50)Collective action problems (34:40)flourishing systems (37:30)Ilya Prigogine and dissipative structures (39:30)Danielle Allen (42:15)philanthropy (44:30)Strother School of Radical Attention (52:30)Andrei Rublev (52:50)Daniel Kahneman (53:50)Syriac term Iḥidāyā (55:00)Lightning Round (57:30):Book: The Way of the Pilgrimand The Narrow Road to the Deep North and Other Travel Sketches by Matsuo BashōPassion: travelHeart sing: swimming with my kidsScrewed up: eulogy Find Zach online:https://zacharyugolnik.com/Logo artwork by Cristina GonzalezMusic by swelo on all streaming platforms or @swelomusic on social media

Für Fans von Kriegsdramen bietet The Narrow Road to the Deep North eine fesselnde fünfteilige Geschichte rund um einen australischen Militärarzt. Die Serie überzeugt mit starken Schauspielleistungen und interessanten Schauplätzen!

Jan und Eric sprechen in ihrer Hitzefolge 71 "Och eine noch! Der Fernseh-Podcast" bei 34 Grad über "Smoke". Der gefeierte US-Autor Dennis Lehane hat einen Podcast über Brandstifter adaptiert. Dann die in vielerlei Hinsicht beeindruckende Booker Prize-Roman-Verfilmung "The Narrow Road To The Deep North" mit Jacob Elordi bei Sky/Wow. Es folgt eine Serie, die den globalen Zuschauerpreis gewonnen hat: Die koreanischen „Squid Games“ gehen mit Staffel 3 zu Ende. Mit finalen Erkenntnissen? Vom 2. bis 27. Juli findet die Fußball-EM der Frauen in der Schweiz statt. Wir haben uns dazu einen Film herausgepickt: "Mädchen können kein Fußball spielen" über die Geschichte des deutschen Frauen-Fußballs vom renommierten Dokumentarfilmer Torsten Körner in der ARD-Mediathek. Am Ende noch mal wie zu Beginn - Amerika!: "Poker Face" startet bei Sky/Wow in Staffel zwei. Wir reden darüber, warum diese völlig übertriebene Krimiserie nicht nur die Wiedergeburt von Inspektor Columbo ist, sondern auch wie kaum ein anderes Fiction-Werk die derzeitigen Zustände in den USA perfekt beschreibt. In unseren Quickies am Ende geht es heute um die erstaunliche Action-Buddy-Comedy "Heads of States" mit Idris Elba und John Cena bei Amazon und eine ARTE-Doku über prominente rechte Gewalttäter. Bitte entschuldigt: Wir hatten diesmal leichte Tonprobleme aufgrund eines Ventilator-Windgeräusches, das sich - bei der Aufnahme still und leise - in unsere Aufnahme geschlichen hat. Unser Learning: Nie mehr Ventilator neben Mikro, auch bei 34 Grad nicht!

Zwei Serien, deren bisherige Staffeln stets Kandidaten für die Top Ten des Jahres waren, kehren in dieser Woche zurück. Bei Disney+ geht "The Bear" (5:11) in die vierte - und wie wir mittlerweile zu unserer Überraschung erfahren haben - nicht letzte Staffel. Nachdem die dritte ein kleiner Qualitätsabfall war, diskutieren Roland, Holger, Rüdiger und Michael ob die Serie wieder auf Sterne-Niveau zurückgekehrt ist, wie sich die Staffel von den vorherigen Gängen unterscheidet und was wir uns vom Dessert der fünften Staffel erhoffen. Erst in der zweiten Staffel läuft "Poker Face" (35:20) bei Wow, die uns mit "Columbo"-Flair begeistert hat. Nun ist der humane Lügendetektor Natasha Lyonne zurück und löst gleich zwölf weitere Fälle. Wir beantworten ganz ehrlich ob die neuen Folgen das Niveau halten können und ob es eine gute Entscheidung war, mit den ersten drei Episoden der zweiten Staffel den roten Faden zu durchschneiden. Ebenfalls bei Wow läuft die australische Miniserie "The Narrow Road to the Deep North" (1:00:55) mit Jacob Elordi, die im Ausland hymnische Kritiken erhalten hat. Michael, Holger und Rüdiger diskutieren, ob sie diese zurecht hat oder ob es doch Probleme mit der Literaturverfilmung gibt.

Ciarán Hinds' acting pursuits have taken him far from his roots in Northern Ireland. A quality actor - he lends himself to both villainy and simmering heroics. His long career has included intimate Shakespearean theatre productions right through to major franchises like Harry Potter, Game of Thrones, Lord of the Rings and the Disney animated film Frozen. His latest project ‘The Narrow Road to the Deep North' is an intimate character study on human spirit – the Prime Video series based on the novel by Richard Flanagan. He told Jack Tame when he was first introduced to the project, he'd heard of the book but never read it. “They sent me a couple of scripts and I was immediately hooked by the quality of the writing and the story itself,” Hinds said. “So I went out and got myself the book.” “Deeply moved, I was, by the savagery, the cruelty, the brutality, the love, the deep passion, the haunting... it's a huge and hugely emotional read for anybody,” he told Tame. “And from then, I said I'm very interested in this project, and so we went on from there.” LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

For our listeners, the watch content begins after 30 minutes.Mike is at his childhood home in Parkland, Florida, this week while Balazs is in Germany.

Now, we're wrapping up with our thoughts.HandgelenkskontrolleWe kick off our show with errant banter about travel to the USA, current trends, and a bit about old-school Rimowa. Then, it's time to talk TV and the latest shows, including The Last of Us and The Narrow Road to the Deep North.

It's a carefree piece that works well and takes a beating.Wrapping up Watches and Wonders 2025Wrapping up Watches and Wonders isn't the easiest task because it leads to many tangential conversations.

Author Richard Flanagan recently completed a remarkable literary double: already a Booker Prize winner for his novel “The Narrow Road to the Deep North” he just won this year's prestigious Baillie Gifford Prize for Non-Fiction for his latest book “Question 7.”It's an audacious memoir, lyrical examination of the interconnections of history and family. He considers how a famed author's illicit kiss with a woman who was not his wife may have led to the creation of the atomic bomb, and then in turn resulted in Flanagan's own birth. The Baillie Gifford Prizes chief judge described the book as “an intricately woven exploration of the chains of consequence that frame a life.”Speaking recently from his home in Hobart, Tasmania, Flanagan told MPR News senior editor Euan Kerr the book arose from the disconnection of the COVID-19 pandemic.Use the audio player above to listen to the full conversation.    

Lesley Downer's fascination with Japan's most famous poet took her from Tokyo's drab industrial concrete into what was then a seldom-visited part of Honshu. It was a place of sake-drenched poetry sessions in thatched-roof highland villages, and holy mountains where modern ascetics continued to roam between their past and future lives in search of atonement. Her book about this journey, On The Narrow Road to the Deep North, was reissued by Eland in 2024. We spoke about Matsuo Basho's haiku, mountain ascetics and Japan's undiscovered north.

Amy Chavez speaks with Lesley Downer, an expert on Japanese culture and history who writes both fiction and non-fiction. Her novels transport readers to the intriguing world of 19th-century Japan, while her non-fiction takes us along  the Narrow Road to the Deep North with poet Matsuo Basho; behind the scenes of the Japanese geisha community; and into the intrigues of the richest family in Japan. In this episode, she discusses her just-released The Shortest History of Japan: From Mythical Origins to Pop Culture Powerhouse, which provides a concise yet detailed account of Japanese history.Lesley highlights the significance of historical figures like Himiko, the shaman queen who unified Yamatai, and Empresses Suiko and Koken, who ruled Japan in their own right. She also touches on the feminist movement in Japan, particularly the contributions of Hiratsuka Raicho and Akiko Yosano. Lastly, she shares insights into her writing career, including her transition from nonfiction to fiction and her research on geisha.Lesley mentions Yosano Akiko's poem "Until Death Do Us Part" ("Shini tanoma") which she wrote before her brother went off to war:Until Death Do Us Partby Yosano AkikoThough my body dies,My soul will remain with you.Until the end of time,Let us pledge to be together,Until death do us part.(translation: ChatGPT 4o)Lesley's three favorite books on Japan:1. Japan Journal, 1855-1861 (1964) by Henry Heusken, which covers the author's experiences during his time as the secretary and interpreter for Townsend Harris, the first U.S. Consul General to Japan.2. As We Saw Them: The First Japanese Embassy to the United States (1979) by Masao Miyoshi, about the first Japanese diplomats who visited the United States in 1860.3. Taiko: An Epic Novel of War and Glory in Feudal Japan  (1992) by Yoshikawa Eiij, a historical novel that tells the story of Toyotomi Hideyoshi, one of Japan's greatest warlords and unifiers during the Sengoku period.

Richard Flanagan's masterful new novel Question 7 is his most personal book yet: a tribute to his parents and to his island home of Tasmania, and a hypnotic melding of dream, history, place and memory. Beginning with Flanagan's father's imprisonment near Hiroshima when the atom bomb was dropped, Question 7 traces a chain reaction of events, from the turbulent romance between literary giants H.G. Wells and Rebecca West, to the intricate world of 1930s and 40s nuclear physics, to a young Flanagan trapped on a perilous Tasmanian river rapid. One of Australia's most revered novelists, Flanagan was awarded the Man Booker Prize for The Narrow Road to the Deep North and the Commonwealth Prize for Gould's Book of Fish. He joins host Astrid Edwards to discuss Question 7's unique blend of history, fiction and autofiction, and its examination of the stories we construct about ourselves and others.

There are many, many ways to see Japan, but I think I've just experienced my favourite: on foot. In late September/early October 2023, I undertook a six-day trip with Walk Japan, on the Self-Guided Basho Wayfarer walk around Sendai. And it was brilliant! In this episode, I give an overview of the content and logistics of this trip, which essentially includes hiking various segments of the route that haiku poet Matsuo Basho took in the 1700s, as he describes in his book "Narrow Road to the Deep North". It had all the elements of a trip that I need to really love it: incredible scenery, interesting sightseeing spots, truly delicious food, some great interactions with locals, and all with one of my best friends. What more could a girl ask for? Most of this episode is a chat I recorded with my travel companion, Catherine Marshall, about our highlights from the trip. We cover our favourite hiking, food, train, and accommodation moments, along with our most unexpected highlights.  Links: Walk Japan main website - https://walkjapan.com/ Self-Guided Basho Wayfarer walk - https://walkjapan.com/tour/self-guided-basho-wayfarer  Cape to Cape Track Episode 276 - https://notaballerina.com/276  Catherine Marshall on Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/zizzyballord  Join our Facebook group for Thoughtful Travellers - https://www.facebook.com/groups/thoughtfultravellers Join our LinkedIn group for Thoughtful Travellers - https://notaballerina.com/linkedin Show notes: https://notaballerina.com/308 Disclaimer stuff: I was hosted for this trip, which means Walk Japan covered my travel costs.

“Trauma is much more than a story about something that happened long ago,” writes Dr. Bessel van der Kolk. “The emotions and physical sensations that were imprinted during the trauma are experienced not as memories but as disruptive physical reactions in the present.”Van der Kolk, a psychiatrist by training, has been a pioneer in trauma research for decades now and leads the Trauma Research Foundation. His 2014 book “The Body Keeps the Score,” quickly became a touchstone on the topic. And although the book was first released over seven years ago, it now sits at No. 1 on the New York Times best-seller list, a testament to the state of our national psyche.The core argument of the book is that traumatic experiences — everything from sexual assault and incest to emotional and physical abuse — become embedded in the older, more primal parts of our brain that don't have access to conscious awareness. And that means two things simultaneously. First, that trauma lodges in the body. We carry a physical imprint of our psychic wounds. The body keeps the score. But — and I found this more revelatory — the mind hides the score. It obscures the memories, or convinces us our victimization was our fault, or covers the event in shame so we don't discuss it.There's a lot in this conversation. We discuss the lived experience of trauma, the relationship between the mind and the body, the differences between our “experiencing” and “autobiographical” selves, why van der Kolk believes human language is both a “miracle” and a “tyranny,” unconventional treatments for trauma from E.M.D.R. and yoga to psychedelics and theater, how societies can manage collective trauma like 9/11 and Covid-19, the shortcomings of America's “post-alcoholic” approach to dealing with psychic suffering, how to navigate the often complex relationships with the traumatized people we know and love, and much more.Mentioned: “The Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACE) Study” by Vince Felitti et al.Study on efficacy of EMDR“REBUS and the Anarchic Brain: Toward a Unified Model of the Brain Action of Psychedelics” by Robin Carhart-Harris et al. Book Recommendations:The Apology by V Love in Goon Park by Deborah BlumThe Narrow Road to the Deep North by Richard Flanagan You can find transcripts (posted midday) and more episodes of "The Ezra Klein Show" at nytimes.com/ezra-klein-podcast, and you can find Ezra on Twitter @ezraklein.Thoughts?
