Most scholars are both haunted, even undone, by the task of writing papers for peers and traveling to strange campuses to deliver them. Yet we keep it up--we inflict it on our peers, we inflict it on ourselves. Why? To answer that question, Recall This Book assembled three (if you count John) scholars of Victorian literature asked to speak at the Spring 2025 Northeastern Victorian Studies Association conference. Their discussion began with the idea that agreeing to give papers is an act of “externalized self-promising” and ranged across the reasons that floating ideas before our peers is terrifying, exhilarating and ultimately necessary. Kristin Mahoney 's books include Literature and the Politics of Post-Victorian Decadence (Cambridge UP, 2015) and Queer Kinship After Wilde: Transnational Decadence and the Family. Nasser Mufti 's first scholarly book was Civilizing War and he is currently working on a monograph about what Britain's nineteenth century looks like from the perspective of such anti-colonial thinkers as C.L.R. James and Eric Williams. (RTB listeners don't need to hear about John or his Arendt obsession. Mentioned in the episode Theosophical Society in Chennai Annie Besant Jiddu Krishnamurthi in his early life was a not-quite-orphan child guru for Besant. Eric Williams, British Historians and the West Indies on hte grid theorizations of race by folks like Acton C L R James Adorno's Minima Moralia provides Naser with an important reminder o the importance of “hating tradition properly.” H G Wells, The Time Machine and its modernist aftermath eg in the opening pages of Proust's Remembrance of Things Past and in Ford Madox Ford's The Inheritors and The Good Soldier, which is in its own peculiar way a time-travel novel.

Continuing my series, Batman vs. Anarchism, I'm joined on this episode by my esteemed colleague David Hill to discuss Christopher Nolan's Batman Begins. David and I discuss David Graeber's theory that all of Nolan's Batman villains are anarchists - and what it means that Batman is a heroic terrorist.You can check out Graeber's original essay, Super Position, or hear my introduction to this series, Batman vs. Anarchism. And David Hill appeared earlier on this podcast to discuss Theodor Adorno's Minima Moralia.

This week I'm joined by friend and colleague David Hill, composer of the Everyday Anarchism theme music! Our topic is Minima Moralia, a disconcerting book of aphorisms written by Theodor Adorno in the wake of the Holocaust. David and I discuss Adorno's legendary hatred of awesome things like jazz and anarchism, his role as an enemy of left-wing student activists in the 1960s, and the everyday nature of his critiques of capitalism.

'Theory' - a magical glow has emanated from this word since the sixties. Theory was more than just a succession of ideas: it was an article of faith, a claim to truth, a lifestyle. It spread among its adherents in cheap paperbacks and triggered heated debates in seminar rooms and cafés. The Frankfurt School, Structuralism, Post-Structuralism, Adorno, Derrida, Foucault: these and others were the exotic schools and thinkers whose ideas were being devoured by young minds. But where did the fascination for dangerous thoughts come from? In The Summer of Theory: History of a Rebellion, 1960-1990 (Polity Press, 2021), Philipp Felsch follows the hopes and dreams of a generation that entered the jungle of difficult texts. His setting is West Germany in the decades from the 1960s to the 1990s: in a world frozen in the Cold War, movement only came from big ideas. It was the time of apocalyptic master thinkers, upsetting reading experiences and glamorous incomprehensibility. As the German publisher Suhrkamp published Adorno's Minima Moralia and other High Theory works of the Frankfurt School, a small publisher in West Berlin, Merve Verlag, provided readers with a steady stream of the subversive new theory coming out of France. By following the adventures of the publishers who provided the books and the reading communities that consumed and debated them, Philipp Felsch tells the remarkable story of an intellectual revolt when the German Left fell in love with Theory. Kirk Meighoo is Public Relations Officer for the United National Congress, the Official Opposition in Trinidad and Tobago. His career has spanned media, academia, and politics for three decades.

In Episode 56 wenden wir uns wieder einer großen Frage zu: Gibt es ein gutes Leben im Falschen? Mit Wolfgang M. Schmitt diskutieren wir, wie wir mit der Unterscheidung von gut/böse umgehen, wenn es um Unternehmen geht, welche moralischen Ansprüche wir an die Wirtschaft stellen und ob das überhaupt gerechtfertigt ist.Wir sprechen über die gefühlte Ohnmacht und Überforderung der Einzelnen angesichts der Komplexität von Lieferketten und Co. und darüber, wie ein öffentliches Einfordern von „gutem Geschäft“ noch keinen politischen Prozess ersetzt, sondern CEOs mehr Vermögen zugesteht, als sie vielleicht haben (können).Die Episode in einem Satz: Wolfgang fordert, das Politische müsse in den Vordergrund, Mary-Jane muniert die Dehnbarkeit des Gesetzes und dessen Wirksamkeit für bestimmte Fragen und Human fragt danach, wie Ideologien die Fragestellungen an sich formen.Shownotes:Theodor W. Adorno, Minima Moralia, BuchMilton Friedman, The Social Responbibility of Business Is to Increase Its Profits, ArtikelThomas Beschorner et al., Raus aus Russland.

Robert Miner discusses his article "Human Joy and the Subversion of Work/Play Distinctions: A Note on Adorno's Minima Moralia 2.84," from Telos 191 (Summer 2020).

Heute geht es um Adornos berühmtes Zitat. Was bedeutet es? Und verwenden wir es richtig? Wird es womöglich aus dem Kontext gerissen? Denn es stammt aus dem Aphorismus "Asyl für Obdachlose" aus der Minima Moralia. Geht es also nur ums Wohnen? Außerdem ist es nur ein Teil eines Satzes, der insgesamt viel ambivalenter ist und zudem die Antithese zu einer These ist. Erfahrt selbst, was es damit auf sich hat und warum ich heute mal nicht über Hegel lästere.

Cosa ci serve oggi per porre le basi dell'Italia di domani? Mentre in Italia e in Europa si discute dei fondi del Next Generation EU, l'associazione Minima & Moralia, che riunisce imprenditori, accademici, manager e imprenditori pubblici, ha steso un piano per suggerire come quei soldi andrebbero spesi. Ne parliamo con Ignazio Rocco di Torrepadula founder e CEO di Credimi, piattaforma di digital invoice financing per il finanziamento delle Piccole e Medie Imprese italiane ed europee.

In this Episode, Luke Burton and I discuss his residency in Cambridge at Girton College and the realities of true isolation. We talk about his circling of painting in work that involves a cartoon-like shorthand that withstands a lot of manipulation such as stretching,warping and flattening. We revisit his recent show at Picnic Gallery in Peckham, which was constantly opening and closing and showed stacks of sports equipment in graphic totems to the closing down high street and seem now in memory to preempt the closure of so many shops and the cancellation of all sport. We discuss Pandemic poetry, miniatures, problems of display and drawing and the ornamental, ending with thoughts on the decorative and snooker (Ronnie O'Sullivan.) Image: Gene.

Wir machen uns viele Gedanken darüber, wie wir kommunizieren. Wie kommt das? Darüber sprechen wir mal wieder zu zweit, und machen uns Gedanken über das allgegenwärtige Erfordernis der Kommunikation. Vorstellen kann man sich das nicht mehr, aber: das war nicht immer so. Dafür gehen wir zunächst dem Urvater aller kommunikativen Gespenster nach: dem Kommunismus. Wir entdecken Parallelen zur Diskussion, welche Rolle die Massenmedien für den Erfolg der AfD haben. Kommunikation schafft Realität. Das Problem ist aber nicht mehr auf Redaktionen beschränkt. Wer soziale Medien nutzt, muss auswählen. Doch sind wir dieses Zwanges, die richtigen kommunikativen Entscheidungen, zu fällen, nicht müde geworden? Auf diese negative Weise entdecken wir die Zwänge der Massengesellschaft, wie sie Michael Makropoulos in seiner Theorie der Massenkultur beschrieben hat. Es ist der "strukturelle Effekt des anonymen Zwangs zur kommunikativen Anschlussfähigkeit", der uns beschäftigt. Man soll nicht nicht kommunizieren können. Doch ist das so einfach? Wir lesen Auszüge aus der Minima Moralia von Theodor W. Adorno, der schon ein gutes Gespür dafür hatte, was es bedeutet, wenn das soziale Leben auf diskursive Verständigung reduziert wird. Auf die "liberale Fiktion", dass sich alle Gedanken kommunizieren lassen müssten und sollten. Doch ist das wirklich so schlimm? Gibt es überhaupt positive Alternativen zur Kommunikation – jenseits von Gewalt?

Heute geht's um Adornos lügende blühende Bäume in der Minima Moralia, Glück, Schuld und Entscheidungen. Entscheiden sie was oder sind sie schon entschieden? Bildet man sie aus oder sich bloß ein? Es treten auf: Thomas Alva Edison, Nicola Tesla, Lucifer, Marx, Hegel, Theon Greyjoy und Georg Christoph Lichtenberg. Folge abspielen

Heute geht's um den Aphorismus 36 aus der Minima Moralia von Adorno, dann aber doch lieber um die Singularität des Holocaust, Überbau oder Archetypen und die Wut der Schimpansen. Es treten auf: Papa-Tot-Witze, Georg Schramm, Jordan Peterson, Adolf Eichmann und Unser Charlie. Folge abspielen

1. Juli 2017, die 182. Folge. Kurze Notizen zum Podlog, zur Geschichte der Sieger, der Falle des Konsequentialismus der Dialektik, der Gattung der Meisterwerke, und vor allem dem Abseitigen, Undurchsichtigen, Skurrilen... Dazu der Aphorismus Nr. 98 aus "Minima Moralia" mit dem Titel "Vermächtnis". Und der Frage, wie man sich diesem im Denken (heute) stellt.

25. Juni 2017, die 176. Folge. Ein paar kurze Notizen zum Podlog, der Aphorismus "Ausschweifung" aus der Minima Moralia, ein paar Überlegungen zum beschädigten Leben des akademischen Prekariats, und den Chancen von Widersprüchen als Möglichkeiten der Reflexion.

21. Juni 2017, die 172. Folge. Heute, weil es spät wurde und viele Stunden Podcast schon hinter mir lagen, nur ein paar Gedanken zu einem Aphorismus Adornos aus dem Anhang der "Minima Moralia", dessen Veröffentlichung dem Herausgeber der gesammelten Schriften zu verdanken ist. Überlegungen zu empirischer Sozialwissenschaft, der Frage nach der Unterscheidung von Soziologie und Sozialforschung, "Operationalisierungen" von "Hypothesen" um damit "Belege" der "Wirklichkeit" abzutrotzen, und andere Geldmittelakquisetricks einer sich selbst aufgegebenen Geistes- und Sozialwissenschaftlichkeit.

22. Februar 2017, die 53. Folge. Heute bin ich über einen Tweet von Stefan gestolpert der da lautete: "wenn wissenschaft zeichenkette #lüge irritationslos einsetzt, lebt sie im zeitalter von adorno oder im mittelalter. #NoRadioShow" Sein Verweis auf Adorno bezog sich auf den Aphorismus 65. aus Minima Moralia; der Tweet ist hochspannend, zumindest als Hinweis auf ein Problem (der Massenmedien, der Wissenschaft) - auch wenn er falsch ist. Irritationslos wird Lüge nur heute verwendet; in den Massenmedien, und selbst in der Wissenschaft. Mit fatalen Implikationen und Konsequenzen. Hier wird deutlich, dass es neuer Mittel der Ideologiekritik bedarf - nur welche, ist noch offen.

5. Februar 2017, die 36. Folge. Heute geht es über den Aphorismus Nr. 65 "Kohldampf" aus Minima Moralia, genauer um die Frage nach Sprache und Dialekt, Herrschaft und Freiheit, Rede und Schrift, und der Aufhebung der Schrift, "der Konsequenz der strengsten sprachlichen Objektivität" im Sprechen, um so und nur so die menschliche Sprache von der Lüge zu befreien, schon menschlich zu sein...

2. Februar 2017, die 33. Folge. Ich denke kurz darüber nach, warum ich zu einem Diskussionsthema in dieser Form des Selbstgesprächs nichts sagen zu können glaube, und dagegen entschlossen habe, noch einen Aphorismus aus Minima Moralia zu lesen. Er hat mich bei meiner ersten Lektüre heute Vormittag an einen Kommentar von Günther (die Beobachtung der Reflexion des Selbstgesprächs als "naiv") erinnert. Da ich nicht wusste, wie ich daran weiter denke, wollte ich ihn unkommentiert einsprechen. Das gelang mir aber nur halb, erinnerte er mich doch zugleich an die liegende 8 des workflow aus #dfdu bd.2. Es folgte also eine kurze Notiz zum Thema: wie man eine zweidimensionale, liegende 8 (dialektisch) aufheben kann.

1. Februar 2017, die 32. Folge. Weil ich schon früh an diesem Tag das Interesse verloren hatte, war ich auf der Suche nach einem Text, den ich mir heute vorlesen konnte. Und einem glücklichen Zufall ist es geschuldet, dass mir dabei der Aphorismus 43 aus Minima Moralia in die Hand fiel. An diesem Text habe ich versucht zu denken, was mir an der Fake News Debatte so problematisch, aber auch, was mir so wesentlich scheint. Aber wie etwas dazu sagen, ohne etwas zu dieser Debatte beizutragen? Was also tun?
