1920-talets författare sörjde inte bara alla döda, utan främst att mänskligheten gått förlorad. Anna Thulin funderar över hur det påverkade romankonsten. Lyssna på alla avsnitt i Sveriges Radio Play. ESSÄ: Detta är en text där skribenten reflekterar över ett ämne eller ett verk. Åsikter som uttrycks är skribentens egna. Först publicerad 2020-10-01. Texten är inläst av Sofia Strandberg.Hur mäter man förlusten av ett krig? I kroppar: tio miljoner döda, dubbelt så många sårade och skadade. I platser: ödelagda städer, brända landskap och skyttegravar som djupa, blödande sår. Men platser och kroppar rymmer inte allt. Kanske är det tomheten vi istället bör mäta: det outtalade, minnena som trycks undan och förtvinar, den ekande tystnaden efter de ofödda som aldrig blir till.Ja, första världskriget var ett oöverskådligt trauma för stora delar av världen, och så klart för Europa. Vi kan försöka föra räkenskap över synliga och osynliga förluster, men all sorg kommer ändå inte att rymmas. Ur askan reste sig dock något nytt, inte minst inom den europeiska romankonsten. På 1920-talet skrevs några av århundradets främsta böcker – romaner som Thomas Manns ”Bergtagen”, André Gides ”Falskmyntarna”, Virginia Woolfs ”Mrs Dalloway” och Herman Hesses ”Stäppvargen”. Skildringar av väldigt olika slag, men som har gemensamt att de försökte bearbeta krigets trauma och skildra författarens idéer om samhället och människan. Och trots att de är skrivna i 1900-talets början, har dåtidens romaner mer gemensamt med senare författare än vad man först kan tro.Thomas Mann har kallat människan för ”livets sorgebarn”. I så fall är 1920-talets romaner krigets sorgebarn, skriver journalisten och författaren Åke Lundqvist i sin bok med samma namn. Där skildrar han tiden före och under och efter första världskriget, och djupläser sju romaner från efterkrigstiden – romaner som alla söker ett ljus i mörkret. För hur kunde européerna, som stolt tänkt att de burit på humanitetens och förnuftets fana, falla ut i en sådan katastrof? Det måste vara idéerna det var fel på! Inte främst de politiska idéerna, tänkte författarna, utan de mänskliga grundvalarna.Ja, vad innebär det egentligen att vara människa? Känslan på 1920-talet var att allting stod i sönderfall. Nationer, ekonomi och gamla religiösa och vetenskapliga sanningar. Ingenting gick att lita på. Det gav en längtan tillbaka, efter något ursprungligt och meningsfullt. Man sökte sig till andra länder, till vetenskapen, till svunna civilisationer och inåt sig själv. Mann, Gide, Woolf och Hesse deltog inte i några strider och skrev inte uttryckligen om kriget. Men känslan av förlust var ett arv från kriget. Den vilade som en skugga över de överlevande.På samma sätt fortsätter skuggor att vila över oss. Det ger avtryck i litteraturen.Några böcker om första världskriget kom visserligen tidigt, under själva krigsåren, men det var först med Erich Maria Remarques roman ”På västfronten intet nytt”, från 1929, som genombrottet kom för krigslitteraturen. På samma sätt dröjde det innan andra världskrigets vittneslitteratur om Förintelsen nådde fram till läsarnas medvetande. Kanske tog det tid för publiken att mogna. Kanske för författarna att våga skriva, trygga från hot om våld och plötsliga försvinnanden.1920-talets europeiska författare upplevde inte samma hot, men riskerade att utsättas för censur för att de bröt mot konventioner. De sörjde inte i första hand de miljontals liv som gått till spillo under första världskriget – utan att mänskligheten som helhet gått förlorad. Åke Lundqvist uttrycker det fint i sin bok: ”Samhälleliga andliga värden har dödligt skadats i kriget. Men det ljus som brinner i människan är intakt. Dess förmåga att påverka världens gång må vara oviss. Dock finns den där, som en motkraft. Detta är kärnan i den andliga tro som tjugotalets europeiska idéromaner förmedlar.”Det andliga inuti oss själva. Människan istället för gud. Ja, vi lever fortfarande – eller på nytt – i ett famlande efter andliga värden. Den nya världen har visats sig vara mer globaliserad och sammanknuten än någonsin tidigare, och samtidigt mer fragmenterad och upplöst för individen. Inte underligt att man kan känna sig som Clarissa i Virginia Woolfs ”Mrs Dalloway”, där hon går genom staden, totalt uppslukad och förundrad över alla intryck som möter henne – för att i nästa sekund falla ned i modlöst mörker. Livslusten och meningslösheten lever tätt sida vid sida. För att hitta en plats i samtiden dyker man in i sig själv och lägger ihop skärvor av minnen så att man förstår något om världen.Att dyka ned i sig själv och pussla ihop minnen för att förstå sin samtid…. Visst låter det som en annan litterär genre? Jag tänker såklart på autofiktionen, och undrar om inte vågen av självframställningar har en del gemensamt med förra sekelskiftets litteratur. 1920-talets författare upplevde att de förlorat den gamla sanningen om världen, ja, hela den gamla världen dog i första världskriget. Själva försöker vi navigera mellan falska nyheter, företagens storytelling och sociala mediers polerade yta. Vad är autentiskt när sanningen blivit fiktion? Och vad ska egentligen en roman vara, när allt vi omgärdas av är berättelser?Det är svårt att peka ut vad som är nytt, särskilt som man är mitt uppe i ett skeende, säger den norska litteraturprofessorn Toril Moi i en föreläsning om Karl Ove Knausgård på Lunds Universitet 2019. Men hon pekar på förlusten av sanningen som en avgörande drivkraft för autofiktionens pionjärer, från Annie Ernaux till Knausgård: ”Liksom alla stora konstnärliga rörelser tar också den här upp något oroande i vår kultur, nämligen den ökande produktionen av fiktioner, som nu hotar att drunkna oss i det falska, det oäkta och det overkliga.” Genom att skala av lagren av fiktion vill författarna blottlägga sanningen. Inte den torrt objektiva sanningen, utan den mänskliga och meningsskapande. Inte helt olikt vad 1920-talets författare strävade efter.Det sägs att krigets första offer är sanningen. Men exakt hur mäter man förlusten av ett krig? Den går inte att mäta, är det enkla svaret. Varken i kroppar eller platser eller tomhet. Många av oss som själva förskonats hör ekot av släktingar som överlevde eller som inte gjorde det. Soldater som återvände; eller inte gjorde det. Återigen sover många av oss med någon som vaknar upp i ett skrik mitt i natten när minnena tränger sig på. Att dö är inte svårt, nej, att leva är det svåra. Kanske, i bästa fall, kan litteraturen visa oss en väg.Text: Anna Thulin, journalistTal: Sofia StrandbergLäsning och lyssningÅke Lundqvist: ”Krigets sorgebarn: Om 1920-talets europeiska idéromaner”, Carlssons bokförlag, 2018.”Knausgård: In Search of a New Form” av Toril Moi, föreläsning på Lunds universitet 2019.
Its Seeking Sunday! Happy Mothers day to all of you divas. Ben here, today Jacques, Hesse, and I guess what the new pope's vibe is (we recorded 10 minutes after the news was announced) spill some upstate tea about Martha Stewart and a 100 year old succulent, call Sniffies, and read some celebrity blind items.
Welcome Seekers! Ben here, today Hesse, Jacques, and I celebrate Teachers Appreciation Week by talking about all the teachers we beefed with (we even read one's obituary), discuss Trumps new tariffs on movies (?) and play a new game wherein we guess which celebrities have trans kids, and what kind of trans those kids are.

It's S-S-Seeking Sunday!

In this explosive live episode, Courtenay Turner will unravel the ideological undercurrents of Game~B-a movement positioning itself as a decentralized, pluralistic alternative to modern civilization's “rivalrous systems” while advancing a technocratic vision steeped in Hegelian dialectics and Leftist teleology. Framed as a “post-political” solution to societal collapse, Game~B's fusion of blockchain networks, AI-driven collective intelligence, and utopian rhetoric mirrors the Marxist critique of alienation-yet proposes a technological “Omega Point” eerily aligned with H.G. Wells' World Brain, Teilhard de Chardin's noosphere, and the Dark Enlightenment's war on “The Cathedral”.Key Themes:1: Game~B's Hegelian Roots:• How Game~B's critique of “Game~A” (neoliberal capitalism) recycles Marxist resentment of civilizational “rivalry” while rebranding collectivism as decentralized network states.• Its vision of “emergent coherence” through blockchain and AI mirrors Wells' call for a “permanent World Encyclopedia” and Teilhard's noospheric convergence, fulfilling Leftism's transcendent aspirations without overt coercion.2: The Phoenix Agenda:• Bret Weinstein's call to “Phoenix the Republic” and Jim Rutt's musings on “burning down” civilization's operating system evoke Operation Phoenix's CIA-orchestrated “creative destruction.” Is this a blueprint for controlled collapse?• Parallels to Hesse's Glass Bead Game: Will Game~B's “membranes” of self-organizing networks prioritize spiritual elitism over democratic accountability?3: Technocratic Singularity:• SingularityNET's decentralized AI market and optimal incentives for collective intelligence promise cooperation-but could entrench algorithmic governance.• Teilhard's Omega Point meets Silicon Valley: Is Game~B a secular rapture for the “Cognitariat,” leveraging blockchain to bypass nation-states?4: Leftism in Right-Wing Clothing:• James Lindsay's analysis of Leftist “Manichean telos” finds new expression in Game~B's romanticization of indigenous systems and Aquarian-age rhetoric.• Dark Enlightenment critiques of “The Cathedral” are co-opted to legitimize a post-democratic tech aristocracy. Join Courtenay as she dissects whether Game~B is humanity's salvation-or a Trojan Horse for a digitized Neo-Feudalism. Can decentralized networks transcend ideological capture, or will they amplify the very rivalries they claim to solve? Is the Phoenix a symbol of renewal-or a Tavistock-approved psyop? Tune in for a no-holds-barred exploration of civilization's next OS. __________________________________________________________________ ▶ GET On-Demand Access for Courtenay's Cognitive Liberty Conference Cognitive liberty Conference ----------------------------------------- ▶ Follow & Connect with Courtenay: CourtenayTurner.com Linktree ▶ Support my work & Affiliate links: Buy Me A Coffee GiveSendGo Venmo Cash APP RNC Store Vitamin B-17!

The first episode of this season of Movie Mindset is free for all listeners as always. To listen to the rest of the season, subscribe at www.patreon.com/chapotraphouse When you love movies, you've got to watch them. There's no other way…Movie Mindset Season 3 commences with our first ever single feature on the most referenced movie in Chapo Trap House history: Martin Scorsese's masterpiece Casino. Will and Hesse are joined by Felix to take a kaleidoscopic and dizzying dive into the inferno of American greed that is Las Vegas. Anchored by a triumvirate of all career great performances from Robert De Niro, Sharon Stone and Joe Pesci in FULL PSYCHO MODE, Casino is by equal turns hilarious and stomach turning and stands alone as Scorsese's grandest and most generous examination of evil and the tragic flaws that doom us all. Should you listen even if you haven't seen this movie? Why take a chance? At least that the way we feel about it.

Presenting Nick Newman's Emulsion, a new podcast from The Film Stage. “WHY on EARTH is there another film podcast?” Is the question you, the reasonable listener, are asking while nevertheless hitting play on this pilot-of-sorts for yet another entry in perhaps the seventh art's most undignified progeny. Stop me if you've heard this one before: here is a show that strives to stand outside its peers. This is not a show informing you that the week's big new release is pretty good, actually or a group of guys talking about '80s movies so bad they're riduclawesome or me digging up the ruddiest MKV file I can find and having a friend from the Internet talk about it with me for 46 minutes––but there will be some of that, because it's better than talking about most other things. Rather, I've envisioned this as a multi-headed object: conversations among filmmakers, film programmers, and cinephiles mixed with monologues, reviews, streaming and repertory highlights––a podcast that takes you from the miked-up, pop-filtered confines of a professional-sounding show to the sturm und drang of chats among friends in a packed bar, which is where some of my most fruitful film discussions have been held and which often yields more valuable observations than, speaking hypothetically, someone stressing over saying just the right thing because they have a microphone in front of them and are emphatically aware that they're on a film podcast. On this debut episode I talk with Carson Lund, the co-writer, director, and editor of Eephus, now in limited release; then Hesse Deni of Movie Mindset joins me to discuss Errol Morris' CHAOS: The Manson Murders, which is now on Netflix. Music courtesy of Alex Walton: "Love Theme From an Unreleased Film" from the album Giving It Up.

America invests millions in training our warfighters to be the most competent in the world. That investment shouldn't end when the uniform comes off. The Jedburgh Podcast, the Jedburgh Media Channel and the Green Beret Foundation are proud to announce our partnership with the University of Health and Performance outside of Bentonville, Arkansas. Matt Hesse is the Founder and CEO of University of Health and Performance. This Veterans Day, Fran Racioppi sat down with Matt to share his vision to build a world-class development program to train our Veterans as certified personal trainers. In addition to the hard skills required to build health and fitness in others, UHP is also teaching the business skills needed to become successful entrepreneurs.Matt explains the process, the details behind each course, why UHP has chosen Arkansas to call home, how he's building an ecosystem to support all aspects of Veteran transition, and how UHP is leading the way in showing private industry just how valuable our Veterans will be for the next generation of America.

Veterans created this country.” “The health and performance of your life or your company need to be in balance.”“You can take the four pieces of the blueprint: how to think intellectually, how to train physically, how to feel emotionally, and how to lead from a values perspective to build a strategy to get after whatever that purpose is.”“A lot of us carry a lot of shit around that we have not let out yet and a big part of this place is helping people do that.”“I believe that great visionary leaders are unencumbered by their own “I can't do its.”“Failure is not possible if you don't quit.”“Anybody can be an entrepreneur. I truly believe that.”“My personal huge goal right now is to give veterans the opportunity to get out and catch up with their peers as fast as possible.”“Most Veterans are highly competent, highly skilled, great leaders, who just want to do awesome purposeful work.” “The DOD's responsibility is to build a lethal fighting force. Period. End of story.” “2025 we are going to launch Veterans Future Festival. It is going to be the largest veterans day event in the country, anywhere."The Jedburgh Podcast and the Jedburgh Media Channel are an official program of The Green Beret Foundation.The opinions presented on the The Jedburgh Podcast and the Jedburgh Media Channel are the opinions of my guests and myself.

Episode 3468: Kate Hesse highlights the critical distinction between self-care and self-work, explaining how each serves unique purposes in maintaining balance. While self-care replenishes energy and promotes relaxation, self-work involves active growth and introspection, often requiring effort and intention. By understanding and balancing these practices, we can better align with our needs, achieve personal growth, and maintain well-being. Read along with the original article(s) here: https://nourishnestbreathe.com/self-care-vs-self-work-and-why-it-matters/ Quotes to ponder: "I define self-work as any activity where you are actively working on yourself. This could be mental, emotional, spiritual, or physical." "Self-care allows you to recharge. It gives you the reserves you need to keep working on both self-work and your day-to-day responsibilities." "Sometimes the only difference between self-work and self-care is your attitude and approach."
