What good is aesthetics in a time of ecological crisis? Toward a Premodern Posthumanism: Anarchic Ontologies of Earthly Life in Early Modern France (Northwestern UP, 2025) shows that philosophical aesthetics contains unheeded potentialities for challenging the ontological subjection of nature to the human subject. Drawing on deconstructive, ecological, and biopolitical thought, Chad Córdova uncovers in aesthetics something irreducible to humanist metaphysics: an account of how beings emerge and are interrelated, responsive, and even response-able without reason or why.This anarchic and atelic ontology, recovered from Kant, becomes the guiding thread for a new, premodern trajectory of posthumanism. Charting a path from Aristotle to Heidegger to today's plant-thinking, with new readings of Montaigne, Pascal, Diderot, Rousseau, and others along the way, this capacious study reveals the untimely relevance of pre-1800 practices of writing, science, and art. Enacting a multitemporal mode of reading, Córdova offers a defense and illustration of the importance of returning to early modern texts as a way to rethink nature, art, ethics, and politics in a time when these concepts are in flux and more contentious than ever. Author Chad Córdova is Assistant Professor in the Department of Romance Studies at Cornell University where he is also affiliated faculty in the Department of Environment and Sustainability. In addition to this new book, he is the author of many articles on figures and concepts that appear in this book, such as Montaigne, Kant, and Heidegger—most recently in Essais: Revue interdisciplinaire d'humanités and The Comparitist. Host Gina Stamm is Associate Professor of French at The University of Alabama. Their research is concentrated on the environmental humanities and speculative literatures of the 20th and 21st centuries, from surrealism to contemporary science fiction and feminist utopias, in Metropolitan France and the francophone Caribbean.

“Our longings are much more powerful than our logic, and our desires are stronger than our reason.” (Graham Tomlin on the thought of Blaise Pascal)The Rt. Rev. Dr. Graham Tomlin (St. Mellitus College, the Centre for Cultural Witness) joins Evan Rosa for a sweeping exploration of Blaise Pascal—the 17th-century mathematician, scientist, philosopher, and theologian whose insights into human nature remain strikingly relevant. Tomlin traces Pascal's life of brilliance and illness, his tension between scientific acclaim and radical devotion, and his deep engagement with Descartes, Montaigne, and Augustine. The conversation moves through Pascal's analysis of self-deception, his critique of rationalism and skepticism, the transformative Night of Fire, his compassion for the poor, and the wager's misunderstood meaning. Tomlin presents Pascal as a thinker who speaks directly to our distracted age, revealing a humanity marked by greatness, misery, and a desperate longing only grace can satisfy.Episode Highlights“Our longings are much more powerful than our logic, and our desires are stronger than our reason.”“The greatness and the refuse of the universe—that's what we are. We're the greatest thing and also the worst thing.”“If everybody knew what everybody else said about them, there would not be four friends left in the world.”“Only grace can begin to turn that self-oriented nature around and implant in us a desire for God.”“The reason you cannot believe is not because of your reason; it's because of your passions.”Show NotesGraham Tomlin introduces the Night of Fire and Pascal's meditation on “the greatness of the human soul”Evan Rosa frames Pascal as a figure of mystery, mechanics, faith, and modern technological influence.Tomlin contrasts Pascal with Descartes and Montaigne—rationalism vs. skepticism—locating Pascal between their poles.Pascal's awareness of distraction, competition, and “all men naturally hate each other” surfaces early as a key anthropological insight.Evan notes Nietzsche's striking admiration: “his blood runs through my veins.”Tomlin elaborates on Pascal's lifelong tension between scientific achievement and spiritual devotion.The story of the servant discovering the hidden Night of Fire parchment in Pascal's coat lining is recounted.Tomlin reads the core text: “Joy, joy, joy, tears of joy… Let me never be separated from him.”Pascal's distinction: “God of Abraham, God of Isaac, God of Jacob, not of the philosophers.”Discussion of Jansenism, Augustinian anthropology, and the gravity of human fallenness.Tomlin sets the philosophical context: Pascal as a counter to both rationalist optimism and skeptical relativism.Pascal's core tension—grandeur and misery—is presented as the interpretive key to human nature.Quote emerges: “the greatness and the refuse of the universe—that's what we are.”Tomlin describes Pascal's political skepticism and the idea that politics offers only “rules for a madhouse.”Pascal's diagnosis of self-deception: “If everybody knew what everybody else said about them, there would not be four friends left in the world.”Evan raises questions about social hope; Tomlin answers with Pascal's belief that only grace can break self-love.They explore Pascal's critique of distraction and the famous line: “the sole cause of man's unhappiness is that he does not know how to stay quietly in his room.”Tomlin ties this to contemporary digital distraction—“weapons of mass distraction”.The conversation turns to the wager, reframed not as coercion but exposure: unbelief is driven by passions more than reasons.Closing reflections highlight the apologetic project of the Pensées, Pascal's brilliance, and his ongoing relevance.Helpful Links and ReferencesSpecial thanks to the Center for Christian Witness and Seen and Unseen https://www.seenandunseen.com/Blaise Pascal: The Man Who Made the Modern World, by Graham Tomlin https://www.hachette.co.uk/titles/graham-tomlin/blaise-pascal/9781399807661/Pensées, by Blaise Pascal https://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/18269Provincial Letters, by Blaise Pascal https://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/2407Why Being Yourself Is a Bad Idea, by Graham Tomlinhttps://www.amazon.com/Why-Being-Yourself-Bad-Idea/dp/0281087097Montaigne's Essays https://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/3600Descartes' Meditations on First Philosophy https://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/23306Augustine's Confessions https://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/3296About Graham TomlinGraham Tomlin is a British theologian, writer, and church leader.

Un celebre aforisma di Virginia Woolf dice che non si può pensare bene se non si è mangiato bene. Per quanto ovvia, la citazione spalanca le porte a una grande verità: anche gli intellettuali più raffinati sono schiavi dei loro stomaci. E se non è lo stomaco, è il mal di denti (Kafka); se non è il mal di denti, è la tachicardia (Bertolucci); se non è la tachicardia, sono le coliche renali (Montaigne). E poi, naturalmente, c'è il grande tema del desiderio sessuale che condiziona la vita degli autori e dei loro personaggi, per cui si potrebbero citare mille penne di Casanova antichi e contemporanei, da Boccaccio a Nabokov, da Flaubert a Pasolini. Insomma, nella letteratura e nella vita, il corpo ci ossessiona, ci fa preoccupare, ci fa ridere… Questa puntata di “Alice”, allora, è dedicata proprio a esplorare alcune delle maniere con cui il nostro corpo si prende il suo spazio sulla pagina. Per lo scrittore Domenico Starnone, che ha pubblicato di recente il romanzo Destinazione errata (Einaudi), il corpo è tutto. «Non c'è nessun bivio», scrive, «si obbedisce al corpo». In un contesto in cui le relazioni sono sempre più fragili, il corpo ci aiuta a capire di cosa abbiamo davvero bisogno. Il corpo si fa anche portavoce della poesia della luganese Noemi Nagy, all'interno della raccolta Sottopelle, edita a settembre da Samuele Editore. Con le sue crepe, le sue imperfezioni e i suoi malfunzionamenti, il corpo diventa l'oggetto di una poesia che esplora il margine e l'autentico. Il corpo, infine, si fa rappresentazione pittorica attraverso lo sguardo del poeta polacco Zbigniew Herbert nel suo saggio Natura morta con briglia (Adelphi) – questo il consiglio di lettura del mese del critico Roberto Galaverni.undefinedundefinedundefined
Returning to the series on schooling vs. learning - this is the fifth episode of the series that started in episode 024. Having explored the seven hidden lessons of school, and delving into some detail regarding the first two: obedience and apathy, today I explore the third lesson: the lesson of apathy, or indifference, look at how these three lessons combined stifle creativity and growth, not only of individual pupils but of society as a whole, and discuss a possible path back from learnt apathy to regained curiosity.Source reading:Montaigne by Virginia WoolfAutobiographical notes by Albert EinsteinDumbing us down by John Taylor GattoIn the realm of hungry ghosts by Gabor MáteIf you would like to contact me directly, please write me an email to thecuriouscaseoffreedom@gmail.comIf you're a fan of this show, you're welcome to become a supporting listener by going to my website and clicking the donate button.

This is a teaser preview of one of our Radical Reads episodes, made exclusively for our supporters on patreon. You can listen to the full 67-minute episode without ads and support our work at https://www.patreon.com/posts/e113-radical-of-143322722In this episode, we discuss Beverly Silver's pioneering work, Forces of Labour: Workers' Movements and Globalisation Since 1870, a book which was hugely influential on many of us at Working Class History. The book is epic in its breadth (looking at labour unrest around the world and across a long period of time), but also firmly committed to viewing class struggle from the bottom up.But most important about the book is how deeply materialist and methodical it is in how it outlines the concrete conditions that gave space for working-class struggle, and how those struggles forced capital to think of new strategies in order to deal with it. Moreover, in doing so, her book also helps us to think and to strategise about working-class organising today.Listen to the full episode here:E113: Radical Reads – Forces of LabourMore informationBuy Forces of Labour from an independent bookshop (or read it online here)Check out our collection of books about labour movement history in our online shopSee the webpage for this episode at https://workingclasshistory.com/podcast/e113-radical-reads-forces-of-labour/AcknowledgementsThanks to our patreon supporters for making this podcast possible.

This episode weaves together the wisdom of Michel de Montaigne and Seneca—two thinkers separated by centuries yet united in their answer to life's oldest question: how should we live?For Montaigne, the key was freedom from the fear of death. For Seneca, freedom from the waste of life. One teaches acceptance, the other intention.Together, they remind us that peace comes not from prolonging our days, but from inhabiting them fully—to stop dreading the end and start honoring the present as life's most sacred gift.
durée : 00:22:25 - Les Nuits de France Culture - par : Philippe Garbit, Christine Goémé, Albane Penaranda - 1ère diffusion : 21/11/1959 France III Nationale Par Serge Jouhet - Avec Verdun-Louis Saulnier (universitaire, spécialiste de romanistique, de François Rabelais et de Clément Marot) et Robert Aulotte (professeur de Lettres, romaniste français, spécialiste de Michel de Montaigne et de Plutarque) - réalisation : Virginie Mourthé
Mit dieser Folge widmet sich „Der Pudel und der Kern“ einem der einflussreichsten Denker der Neuzeit: Michel de Montaigne. Der französische Philosoph gilt als Begründer des Essays, jener persönlichen Denkform, in der er mit unvergleichlicher Offenheit über das Leben, den Menschen und sich selbst nachdachte. Montaignes Texte sind keine abstrakte Theorie, sondern gelebte Philosophie: neugierig, zweifelnd, unvollendet und gerade deshalb so modern. Albert und Jan sprechen darüber, wie Montaignes Gedanken uns heute Orientierung bieten können. Was lernen wir aus seinem berühmten „Was weiß ich?“ über den Umgang mit Unsicherheit? Wie helfen uns seine Reflexionen über Freundschaft, Zufall, Gewohnheit und den eigenen Charakter im Alltag? Und was bedeutet Montaignes Haltung für ein gelingendes Leben jenseits von Dogmen und Selbstoptimierungsdruck?

Essentiel – Le rendez-vous culture de RCJ – présenté par Sandrine Sebbane. Elle reçoit Denis Olivennes pour son « Dictionnaire amoureux des juifs de France » aux éditions Plon. À propos du livre : « Dictionnaire amoureux des juifs de France » paru aux éditions Plon Un dictionnaire amoureux à rebours des idées reçues La France n'est pas antisémite. Elle est même une incroyable exception historique et mondiale dans le rapport des Nations avec les Juifs. Dans ce " Dictionnaire amoureux ", à l'encontre des idées complaisamment entretenues, Denis Olivennes révèle tout ce que la France a apporté aux Juifs de France et tout ce que ces Juifs ont apporté à notre histoire nationale. L'auteur montre comment les Juifs, présents sur le sol de France depuis deux mille ans, ont entretenu avec la Nation, et la Nation avec eux, des liens inouïs d'amitié réciproque. Mais il fait aussi le constat que ni les non-Juifs ni les Juifs ne se souviennent désormais de cet héritage fertile. Sont ici évoqués, à travers une panoplie de notices originales et souvent inattendues, les événements forts de l'Histoire (l'Affaire Dreyfus, la collaboration du régime de Vichy...) et les grandes figures qui furent juives, d'origine juives ou demi-juives : Nostradamus, Montaigne, Bergson, Proust, André Citroën... Et de grands personnages chrétiens qui les protégèrent : d'Abélard à Charles de Gaulle en passant par Bernard de Clairvaux ou Pascal, dans un pays qui a aussi admiré sans réserve Sarah Bernhardt, Barbara ou Gérard Oury, et confié le pouvoir à des hommes d'État comme Léon Blum, Georges Mandel ou Pierre Mendès France. À travers des artistes ou des penseurs comme André Maurois, Emmanuel Berl ou Raymond Aron par exemple, on voit comment s'est constitué le berceau de ce que les historiens ont nommé le franco-judaïsme.

Send us a textNew York Times bestselling author Ryan Holiday returns to From the Green Notebook for his third conversation with Joe—this time diving into the themes of his latest and final book in the Stoic Virtues series, Wisdom Takes Work. In this wide-ranging conversation, Ryan and Joe discuss the importance of curiosity, humility, and deep reflection in a world where shortcuts and surface-level thinking often dominate. They explore how writing, reading, and journaling serve as tools for developing wisdom—and how, for both leaders and creators, clarity of thought begins with clarity on paper.Listeners will gain insights into Ryan's approach to writing books, the power of writing as intellectual accountability, and what he's learned from studying figures like Montaigne, Lincoln, and even Elon Musk. Along the way, Ryan opens up about his own evolution as a writer, the dangers of intellectual arrogance, and why the pursuit of wisdom is a lifelong endeavor.In this episode, Joe and Ryan explore:Why wisdom isn't something you have but something you earn through continuous effortHow writing forces clarity, accountability, and humility in thinkingThe danger of “bad bricks” in our belief systems—and how to guard against misinformationWhy note-taking and reflection are a form of “time travel” that benefit your future selfHow curiosity and skepticism help protect us from manipulation in an AI-driven worldThe difference between intelligence and wisdom—and why power without self-awareness can be destructiveWhy Ben Franklin remains a model of intellectual and social intelligenceWhether you're leading a team, writing your next book, or simply trying to think more clearly, this episode offers a masterclass in slowing down, asking better questions, and doing the hard work of becoming wiser.A Special Thanks to Our Sponsors!Veteran-founded Adyton.

La solitude fait peur. Subie, mal habitée, elle devient isolement et peut nous rendre profondément malheureux. Mais elle est aussi liberté intérieure, et selon Dominique Fernandez, écrivain et académicien, une hygiène personnelle indispensable.

Dans un monde où, depuis son origine, l'individu s'est construit par ses liens à autrui, le solitaire n'est-il pas une anomalie de la nature ? Comme l'être naît et meurt seul, sa vie se passe habituellement à essayer de ne plus l'être. Et pourtant, ainsi que le disait Pascal, le malheur des hommes vient d'une seule chose : de ne pas pouvoir rester seul, en repos dans une chambre. De Sénèque à Tolstoï, de Rousseau à Stendhal, cet essai de Dominique Fernandez explore les multiples visages de la solitude à travers les oeuvres et les vies de philosophes, d'artistes et d'écrivains. Solitudes philosophique, sacrée, bourgeoise ou tragique : chacune révèle une manière d'être au monde. Ce texte met plus particulièrement en avant des exemples de solitaires chez trois grands artistes : l'homme qui contemple, à l'écart du groupe, chez Tiepolo, les figures bourgeoises et hiératiques chez Seurat ou encore l'avion cabossé et incapable de voler, figurant la mélancolie tragique chez Anselm Kiefer. Au terme de cet essai stimulant, la question est posée : la solitude est-elle un devoir moral ou une irresponsabilité ? Dans la lignée de Montaigne, Dominique Fernandez offre ce précieux précepte à son lecteur : sois un monde à toi-même.Hébergé par Ausha.

Welcome to the Via Stoica Podcast, the podcast on Stoicism.In this Stoic Quotes episode, Benny reflects on the words of Michel de Montaigne, the 16th-century French philosopher who pioneered the personal essay. In his famous essay To Philosophize Is to Learn How to Die, Montaigne reminds us that the purpose of philosophy is not abstract speculation, but preparation for the ultimate change: death.Drawing from Cicero and Plato, Montaigne writes that true philosophers are always practicing how to die, because in facing death, we learn how to live. Benny explores how this idea connects with Stoic thought: Marcus Aurelius' meditations on constant change, Epictetus' reminder that death can find us at any moment, and the Stoic practice of using mortality as a guide to live with clarity and purpose.In this episode, you'll hear how contemplating death reduces fear, why practicing small farewells prepares us for life's biggest transition, and how journaling about mortality can help us live more gratefully in the present. Montaigne and the Stoics alike show us that learning to die well is inseparable from learning to live well.Perfect for anyone reflecting on death in philosophy, exploring Montaigne's essays, or seeking Stoic practices to cultivate peace and presence in daily life.You can also check out this post to learn more about how Marcus Aurelius reflected on death:

In this episode, Stewart Alsop speaks with Edouard Machery, Distinguished Professor at the University of Pittsburgh and Director of the Center for Philosophy of Science, about the deep cultural roots of question-asking and curiosity. From ancient Sumerian tablets to the philosophical legacies of Socrates and Descartes, the conversation spans how different civilizations have valued inquiry, the cross-cultural psychology of AI, and what makes humans unique in our drive to ask “why.” For more, explore Edouard's work at www.edouardmachery.com.Check out this GPT we trained on the conversationTimestamps00:00 – 05:00 Origins of question-asking, Sumerian writing, norms in early civilizations, authority and written text05:00 – 10:00 Values in AI across cultures, RLHF, tech culture in the Bay Area vs. broader American values10:00 – 15:00 Cross-cultural AI study: Taiwan vs. USA, privacy and collectivism, urban vs. rural mindset divergence15:00 – 20:00 History of curiosity in the West, from vice to virtue post-15th century, link to awe and skepticism20:00 – 25:00 Magic, alchemy, and experimentation in early science, merging maker and scholarly traditions25:00 – 30:00 Rise of public dissections, philosophy as meta-curiosity, Socratic questioning as foundational30:00 – 35:00 Socrates, Plato, Aristotle—transmission of philosophical curiosity, human uniqueness in questioning35:00 – 40:00 Language, assertion, imagination, play in animals vs. humans, symbolic worlds40:00 – 45:00 Early moderns: Montaigne, Descartes, rejection of Aristotle, rise of foundational science45:00 – 50:00 Confucianism and curiosity, tradition and authority, contrast with India and Buddhist thought50:00 – 55:00 Epistemic virtues project, training curiosity, philosophical education across cultures, spiritual curiosityKey InsightsCuriosity hasn't always been a virtue. In Western history, especially through Christian thought until the 15th century, curiosity was viewed as a vice—something dangerous and prideful—until global exploration and scientific inquiry reframed it as essential to human understanding.Question-asking is culturally embedded. Different societies place varying emphasis on questioning. While Confucian cultures promote curiosity within hierarchical structures, Christian traditions historically linked it with sin—except when directed toward divine matters.Urbanization affects curiosity more than nationality. Machery found that whether someone lives in a city or countryside often shapes their mindset more than their cultural background. Cosmopolitan environments expose individuals to diverse values, prompting greater openness and inquiry.AI ethics reveals cultural alignment. In studying attitudes toward AI in the U.S. and Taiwan, expected contrasts in privacy and collectivism were smaller than anticipated. The urban, global culture in both countries seems to produce surprisingly similar ethical concerns.The scientific method emerged from curiosity. The fusion of the maker tradition (doing) and the scholarly tradition (knowing) in the 13th–14th centuries helped birth experimentation, public dissection, and eventually modern science—all grounded in a spirit of curiosity.Philosophy begins with meta-curiosity. From Socratic questioning to Plato's dialogues and Aristotle's treatises, philosophy has always been about asking questions about questions—making “meta-curiosity” the core of the discipline.Only humans ask why. Machery notes that while animals can make requests, they don't seem to ask questions. Humans alone communicate assertions and engage in symbolic, imaginative, question-driven thought, setting us apart cognitively and culturally.
Aperol spritzes, ‘Euro summers', and aesthetic beach pics. In episode 135 of Overthink, Ellie and David discuss all things travel. They discuss the differences how travel changes our relationship to the place where we're from, the difference between travel and tourism, and the place of travel in the history of philosophy. They go from Plato's views that young people shouldn't travel to Jean-Jacques Rousseau's belief that travel is essential for turning boys into men. They also explore the question, why do humans love to travel so much? In the bonus, your hosts debate over their relationships to phones and taking photos while travelling and dive deeper into what it's like to experience culture shock.

Tania de Montaigne is a writer and journalist who lives in Montmartre, the Montmartre of today. La butte is her neighbourhood. In this episode, she tells us about her favourite time of day: the morning, when she sits down to write. It's often between eight thirty and nine o'clock in the morning. In the notes accompanying the transcript, there are some cutlural notes, and we'll be looking at three expressions used by Tania de Montaigne and other examples of their use in natural French. So if you want to cultivate your French, in Montmartre or elsewhere, the slow way, I invite you to subscribe to the transcript at www.cultivateyourfrench.com

The book (co-written with Rosa Liu and Ashley Smith) does an excellent job of looking at the actions of the Chinese state from the perspective of workers and marginalised groups to produce a picture of a capitalist nation that is not simply 'the same' as other nations, but not all that different either.The full episode is out longest Radical Read yet, and covers a range of topics from the conditions and struggles of China's working class both inside the workplace and out, to women's and LGBT+ rights. We also talk about China's relationship to its "internal peripheries" of Tibet and Xinjiang, as well as its international relationships in Africa, Israel and, of course, with the US.

450 lat temu francuski myśliciel Michel de Montaigne odkrył sekret, który może całkowicie zmienić Twoje życie. W wieku 38 lat porzucił karierę, zamknął się w wieży pełnej książek i zaczął rewolucyjny eksperyment – pisanie o tym, czego NIE wie. To właśnie ta odwaga stała się fundamentem jego geniuszu.
C'est l'histoire d'un philosophe qui, un matin, décide de tout quitter. Sans GPS, sans téléphone : juste son cheval et quelques cartes pour traverser l'Europe, seul, en dormant chez l'habitant.Un voyage initiatique de plusieurs mois, entre deux confinements, pour renouer avec le réel. Le vrai. Celui qu'on ne voit pas à travers les écrans.Ce périple, Gaspard Koenig l'a vécu intensément. Et ce qu'il en a tiré dit beaucoup de ce que notre monde a perdu : le silence, le hasard, l'hospitalité… et peut-être même la liberté.Dans cet épisode, Gaspard nous parle de ce voyage bien sûr, mais aussi de ses rituels d'écriture, de Montaigne, de la crise écologique et des fausses bonnes idées pour y répondre.On parle de philosophie, oui, mais jamais pour fuir la réalité. Au contraire : il interroge le monde avec exigence, esprit libre et un sens du concret trop rare dans le débat public.Il nous pousse à penser par nous-mêmes, à sortir des dogmes, à redonner du sens à des mots qu'on croyait figés, comme celui de libéralisme, qu'il défend avec une élégance toute française.Et si vous avez besoin de reprendre votre souffle dans cette époque saturée, je suis convaincue que cet épisode vous fera un bien fou.Je vous invite à l'écouter jusqu'au bout : à la fin, Gaspard nous livre même quelques confidences plus personnelles…Et si le podcast vous a inspiré, pensez à vous abonner, ça m'aide énormément !Chapitrage : 00:00 – Introduction02:43 – Traverser l'Europe à cheval : un philosophe en quête de réel05:02 – Montaigne, le doute et la liberté : repenser notre rapport au monde08:13 – Le silence, le hasard, l'hospitalité : ce que Gaspard a redécouvert en chemin10:15 – Fuir une société trop bureaucratique 16:46 – Revenu universel, solitude choisie et besoin d'indépendance20:29 – Le vrai sens du mot “libéralisme” selon Gaspard Koenig24:01 – Vérité, contradiction et pensée vivante : sortir des dogmes41:13 – Écologie : penser au-delà des fausses bonnes idées47:54 – Doute, nuance et système : pourquoi l'esprit humain aime les certitudes57:06 – Écrire comme un artisan : la discipline quotidienne d'un philosophe01:02:55 – Le crible du podcast01:22:59 – Les livres recommandés par Gaspard KoenigNotes et références de l'épisode ✨Pour retrouver Gaspard KoenigSur LinkedInSur sa NewsletterSes chroniques sur Les Echos✨Pour retrouver les livres recommandés par Gaspard Koenig Les Rougon-Macquart d'Émile ZolaL'Assommoir d'Émile ZolaLa Curée d'Émile ZolaÀ la recherche du temps perdu de Marcel ProustDe la démocratie en Amérique d'Alexis de TocquevilleQuinze jours dans le désert d'Alexis de TocquevilleLes Essais de MontaigneDe la liberté de John Stuart MillLe Père Goriot de BalzacIllusions perdues de BalzacSplendeurs et misères des courtisanes de BalzacL'homme qui plantait des arbres de Jean GionoUn roi sans divertissement de Jean GionoBullshit jobs de David GraeberThe Dawn of Everything de David Graeber✨Pour retrouver les livres écrit par Gaspard Koenig HumusLa fin de l'individuAgrophilosophie(Lien affilié Fnac)#GaspardKoenig #philosophie #podcastfrancais #paulinedanslesoreilles #voyageinterieur #liberté #écrivainfrançais #libéralisme #penséelibre #montaigne #ecologieetliberté #podcastinspirant #voyageàcheval #introspection #ecrivainvoyageur #espritcritique #entrevuephilosophique #penserparsoimême #réflexionprofonde #audeladesécransVous pouvez consulter notre politique de confidentialité sur https://art19.com/privacy ainsi que la notice de confidentialité de la Californie sur https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

In the full episode, we go into detail about some small local disputes and victories, and how these connected with the dynamics of large, national disputes – in particular, the public sector pensions dispute of 2011. We also talk about the relationship between union officialdom and struggles on the shopfloor.While these experiences are specific to John, we do think many of the dynamics are pretty common, with similarities with many workplaces – especially office-based ones.Our podcast is brought to you by our Patreon supporters.
