Episode 9 explores the antinomies of autonomy and self-emancipation in the thought of C.L.R. James. Dr. William Clare Roberts joins us to discuss James’ legacy and how it fits into his book project on the history of “history from below.” Please be advised that a side-effect of this episode may be republicanism.

Why make a political arts programme? In this episode of Suite (212) Extra, hosts Juliet Jacques and Tom Overton discuss today's arts broadcasting and left-wing podcast scenes, and the place of Suite (212) and Resonance 104.4fm within it; how British modernist writers worked with TV and radio; how mainstream media leftists fought to establish a tradition of radical but popular cultural criticism; and plans for future shows, including a call for Gunnersaurus to come on Suite (212).

In the July 2018 edition of Suite (212), Tom Overton talks to Mike Dibb (http://www.mikedibb.co.uk) about a documentary filmmaking career that has spanned more than fifty years. As well as directed John Berger's legendary BBC TV series 'Ways of Seeing' (1972), Dibb has adapted books by Raymond Williams and C.L.R. James, made documentaries about art, music and sport, and is currently making a film about artist Donny Johnson, who has spent almost his entire adult life in the U.S. prison system.

En 1972, un crítico de arte y ensayista relativamente conocido y bastante respetado en el medio inglés, realizó un programa pionero en lo que se refiere a divulgación cultural. El expintor John Berger, armado con el marxismo, el feminismo y las ideas de Walter Benjamin (entre otras), hizo una relectura radical de la historia de la pintura moderna (1400-1900) no con el afán de entregar conocimiento sino herramientas críticas, aplicables también al propio programa. Así de grande y generoso era John Berger.

To mark John Berger’s 90th birthday, the London Review Bookshop and Verso Books organised a discussion of his work with Mike Dibb, Yasmin Gunaratnam and Tom Overton, hosted by Gareth Evans.Read John Berger in the LRB: https://lrb.me/bergerpodSign up to the LRB newsletter: https://lrb.me/acast See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
