In this episode of the Shakespeare and Company Podcast, Adam Biles speaks with poet, translator and critic Ian Patterson about Books: A Manifesto, his passionate defence of reading in all its forms. What begins with the construction of a personal library in a converted coach house opens into a wide-ranging meditation on memory, loss, vulnerability and the profound role books play in shaping a life. Patterson discusses the anguish of parting with thousands of volumes, the intimacy of marked-up, well-lived-in books, and the politics of reading slowly in a culture addicted to speed. The conversation moves through genre snobbery, guilty pleasures, poetry's complex rewards, the porous borders of contemporary literature, and Patterson's experience translating the final volume of Proust—an immersion so deep it altered his own prose. It's a warm, generous exploration of why books matter, how they remake us, and why defending them feels more urgent than ever.Buy Books: A Manifesto: https://www.shakespeareandcompany.com/books/books-a-manifesto*Ian Patterson is a widely published poet and translator, and a former academic. The translator of Finding Time Again, the final volume of the Penguin Proust, he is also the author of Guernica and Total War and Nemo's Almanac. He won the Forward Prize for Best Poem in 2017, with an elegy for his late wife, Jenny Diski. He worked in Further Education between 1970 and 1984, had a second-hand bookselling business for ten years after that, and from 1995 until 2018 was an academic, teaching English Literature at the University of Cambridge.

This week, for Christmas, a heart-warming festive treat full of joy, goodwill and Peter Sellers at his cuddliest. ONLY JOKING.Actually, it's Carol for Another Christmas, Rod Serling's bleak, angry, Cold War reworking of A Christmas Carol . Conceived as the opening salvo in a run of UN-friendly TV specials, the film is a full-throated warning against isolationism, nuclear brinkmanship and the idea that minding your own business ever ends well. Xerox paid for it, ABC aired it ad-free on 28 December 1964, viewers and critics were divided about it, and it then disappeared for nearly 50 years.Directed by Joseph L. Mankiewicz (Cleopatra) in his only television outing, the film stars Sterling Hayden as Daniel Grudge, a wealthy American industrialist who hates foreign aid, diplomacy and the United Nations in equal measure. On Christmas Eve he clashes with his liberal nephew Fred (Ben Gazzara) and is hauled through a series of visions featuring war dead, nuclear devastation and, most memorably, Peter Sellers as “Imperial Me” – a cowboy-Santa demagogue preaching radical individualism. It was Sellers' first screen appearance after his near-fatal heart attack earlier that year.Also featuring Eva Marie Saint, Robert Shaw, Steve Lawrence, Pat Hingle, Britt Ekland and music by Henry Mancini, the film is verbose, didactic and relentlessly grim – and all the more fascinating for it.Joining Tyler is Tilt Araiza (The Sitcom Club / Jaffa Cakes for Proust), drawing parallels with Planet of the Apes, The Prisoner and unpacking Serling and the social and political climate just one year after after the assassination of JFK... looking at how things came together to produce this Christmas curio.
Merry Christmas! In between looking at houses to rent and packing up the Granger house in Oklahoma City, Nick and John put together this yuletide conversation about perhaps the most neglected of Rowling's influences, Dodie Smith's I Capture the Castle. John was a reluctant reader, but, while listening to the audio book, reading the Gutenberg.com file on his computer, and digging the codex out of his packed boxes of books, the author of Harry Potter's Bookshelf was totally won over to Nick's enthusiasm for Castle.In fact, John now argues that, even if Rowling didn't read it until she was writing Goblet of Fire as some have claimed, I Capture the Castle may be the best single book to understand what it is that Rowling-Galbraith attempts to do in her fiction. Just as Dodie Smith has her characters explain overtly and the story itself delivers covertly, When Rowling writes a story, like Smith it is inevitably one that is a marriage of Bronte and Austen, wonderfully accessible and engaging, but with important touches in the ‘Enigmatist' style of Joyce and Nabokov, full of puzzles and twists in the fashion of God's creative work (from the Estecean logos within every man [John 1:9] continuous with the Logos) rather than a portrait of creation per se. Can you say ‘non liturgical Sacred Art'?And if you accept, per Nick's cogent argument, that Rowling read Castle many times as a young wannabe writer? Then this book becomes a touchstone of both Lake and Shed readings of Rowling's work — and Smith one of the the most important influences on The Presence.Merry Christmas, again, to all our faithful readers and listeners! Thank you for your prayers and notes of support and encouragement to John and for making 2025 a benchmark year at Hogwarts Professor. And just you wait for the exciting surprises we have in hand for 2026!Hogwarts Professor is a reader-supported publication. To receive new posts and support my work, consider becoming a free or paid subscriber.The Twelve Questions and ‘Links Down Below' Referred to in Nick and John's I Capture the Castle Conversation:Question 1. So, Nick, we spoke during our Aurora Leigh recording about your long term project to read all the books that Rowling has admitted to have read (link down below!), first question why? and secondly how is that going?Rowling's Admitted Literary InfluencesWhat I want is a single internet page reference, frankly, of ‘Rowling's Admitted Literary Influences' or ‘Confessed Favorites' or just ‘Books I have Read and Liked' for my thesis writing so I needn't do an information dump that will add fifty-plus citations to my Works Cited pages and do nothing for the argument I'm making.Here, then, is my best attempt at a collection, one in alphabetical order by last name of author cited, with a link to at least one source or interview in which Rowling is quoted as liking that writer. It is not meant as anything like a comprehensive gathering of Rowling's comments about any author; the Austen entry alone would be longer than the whole list should be if I went that route. Each author gets one, maybe two notes just to justify their entry on the list.‘A Rowling Reading of Aurora Leigh' Nick Jeffery Talking about ‘A Rowling Reading of Aurora Leigh' Question 2. ... which has led me to three works that she has read from the point of view of writers starting out, and growing in their craft. Which leads us to this series of three chats covering Aurora Leigh by Elizabeth Barrett Browning, I Capture the Castle by Dodie Smith and the Little Women series by Louisa May Alcott. I read Castle during the summer. Amid all the disruptions at Granger Towers, have you managed to read it yet? How did you find it?Capturing Dodie Smith's I Capture the Castle: Elizabeth Baird-Hardy (October 2011)Certain elements of the story will certainly resonate with those of us who have been to Hogwarts a fair few times: a castle with an odd combination of ancient and modern elements, but no electricity; eccentric family members who are all loved despite their individual oddities (including Topaz's resemblance to Fleur Delacour); travel by train; a character named Rose who may have been one of the reasons Rowling chose the name for Ron and Hermione's daughter; descriptions of food that make even somewhat questionable British cuisine sound tasty; and inanimate objects that have their own personalities (the old dress frame, which Rose and Cassandra call Miss Blossom, is voiced by Cassandra and sounds much like the talking mirror in Harry's room at the Leaky Caldron).But far more than some similar pieces, I Capture the Castle lends something less tangible to Rowling's writing. The novel has a tone that, like the Hogwarts adventures, seamlessly winds together the comic and the crushing in a way that is reflective of life, particularly life as we see it when we are younger. Cassandra's voice is, indeed, engaging, and readers will no doubt see how the narrative voice of Harry's story has some of the same features.A J. K. Rowling Reading of I Capture the Castle: Nick Jeffery (December 2025)Parallels abound for Potter fans. The Mortmain's eccentric household mirrors the Weasleys' chaotic warmth: loved despite quirks, from Topaz's nude communing with nature (evoking a less veiled Fleur Delacour) to Mortmain's intellectual withdrawal. Food descriptions—meagre yet tantalising—prefigure Hogwarts feasts, turning humble meals into sensory delights. Inanimate objects gain voice: the family dress-frame “Miss Blossom” offers advice, akin to the chatty mirrors or portraits in Rowling's world. Even names resonate—Rose Mortmain perhaps inspiring Ron and Hermione's daughter—and train journeys punctuate the plot.The Blocked Writer: James Mortmain, a father who spent his fame early and now reads detective novels in an irritable stupor, mirrors the “faded glory” or “lost genius” archetypes seen in Rowling's secondary characters, such as Xenophilius Lovegood and Jasper Chiswell.The Bohemian Stepmother: Topaz, who strides through the countryside in only wellington boots, shares the whimsical, slightly unhinged energy of a character like Luna Lovegood or Fleur Delacour.Material Yearning: The desperate desire of Cassandra's sister, Rose, to marry into wealth reflects the very real, non-magical pressures of class and poverty that Rowling weaves into Harry Potter, Casual Vacancy, Strike and The Ickabog.Leda Strike parallels: Leda Fox-Cotton the bohemian London photographer, adopts Stephen, the working-class orphan, and saves him from both unrequited love and the responsibility that comes with the Mortmain family.Question 3. [story of finishing the book last night by candle light in my electricity free castle] So, in short Nick, I thought it astonishing! I didn't read your piece until I'd finished reading Capture, of course, but I see there is some dispute about when Rowling first read it and its consequent influence on her as a writer. Can you bring us up to speed on the subject and where you land on this controversy?* She First Read It on her Prisoner of Azkaban Tour of United States?tom saysOctober 21, 2011 at 4:00 amIf I recall correctly, Rowling did not encounter this book until 1999 (between PoA & Goblet) when, on a book tour, a fan gave her a copy. This is pertinent to any speculation about how ‘Castle' might have influenced the Potter series.* Rowling Website: “Books I Read and Re-Read as a Child”Question 4. Which, when you consider the other books on that virtual bookshelf -- works by Colette, Austen, Shakespeare, Goudge, Nesbit, and Sewell's Black Beauty, something of a ‘Rowling's Favorite Books and Authors as a Young Reader' collection, I think we have to assume she is saying, “I read this book as a child or adolescent and loved it.” Taking that as our jumping off place, John, and having read my piece, do you wish you had read it before writing Harry Potter's Bookshelf?Harry Potter's Bookshelf: The Great Books behind the Hogwarts Adventures John Granger 2009Literary Allusion in Harry Potter Beatrice Groves 2017Question 5. So, yes, I certainly do think it belongs -- with Aurora Leigh and Little Women -- on the ‘Rowling Reader Essential Reading List.' The part I thought most interesting in your piece was, of course, the Shed elements I missed. Rowling famously said that she loved Jo Marsh in Little Women because, in addition to the shared name and the character being a wannabe writer, she was plain, a characteristic with which the young, plain Jane Rowling easily identified. What correspondences do you think Little Jo would have found between her life and Cassandra Mortmain's?* Nick Jeffery's Kanreki discussion of Rowling's House on Edge of Estate with Two Children, Bad Dad ‘Golden Thread' (Lethal White)Question 6. Have I missed any, John?* Rockefeller Chapel, University of ChicagoQuestion 7. Forgive me for thinking, Nick, that Cassandra's time in church taking in the silence there with all her senses may be the biggest take-away for the young Rowling; if the Church of England left their chapel doors open in the 70s as churches I grew up in did in the US, it's hard to imagine Jo the Reader not running next door to see what she felt there after reading that passage. (Chapter 13, conversation with vicar, pp 234-238). The correspondence with Beatrice Groves' favorite scene in the Strike novels was fairly plain, no? What other scenes and characters do you see in Rowling's work that echo those in Castle?* Chapter 13, I Capture the Castle: Cassandra's Conversation with the Vicar and time in the Chapel vis a vis Strike in the Chapel after Charlotte's Death* Beatrice Groves on Running Grave's Chapel Scene: ‘Strike's Church Going'Question 8. I'm guessing, John, you found some I have overlooked?Question 9. The Mortmain, Colly, and Cotton cryptonyms as well as Topaz and Cassandra, the embedded text complete with intratextuual references (Simon on psycho-analysis), the angelic servant-orphan living under the stairs (or Dobby's lair!) an orphan with a secret power he cannot see in himself, the great Transformation spell the children cast on their father, an experiment in psychomachia a la the Shrieking Shack or Chamber of Secrets, the hand-kiss we see at story's end from Smith, love delayed but expressed (Silkworm finish?), the haunting sense of the supernatural everywhere especially in the invocation that Rose makes to the gargoyle and Cassandra's Midsummer Night's Eve ritual with Simon, the parallels abound. Ghosts!* Please note that John gave “cotton” a different idiomatic meaning than it has; the correct meaning is at least as interesting given the Cotton family's remarkable fondness for all of the Mortmains!* Kanreki ‘Embedded Text' Golden Thread discussion 1: Crimes of Grindelwald* Kanreki ‘Embedded Text' Golden Thread discussion 2: Golden Thread Survey, Part II* Rose makes an elevated Faustian prayer to a Gargoyle Devil: Chapter IV, pp 43-46* Cassandra and Simon celebrate Midsummer Night's Eve: Chapter XII, pp 199-224Let's talk about the intersection of Lake and Shed, though, the shared space of Rowling's bibliography, works that shaped her core beliefs and act as springs in her Lake of inspiration and which give her many, even most of the tools of intentional artistry she deploys in the Shed. What did you make of the Bronte-Austen challenge that Rose makes explicitly in the story to her sister, the writer and avid reader?“How I wish I lived in a Jane Austen novel.” [said Rose]I said I'd rather be in a Charlotte Bronte.“Which would be nicest—Jane with a touch of Charlotte, or Charlotte with a touch of Jane?”This is the kind of discussion I like very much but I wanted to get on with my journal, so I just said: “Fifty percent each way would be perfect,” and started to write determinedly.Question 10. So, I'm deferring to both Elizabeth Barrett Browning and J. K Rowling. Elizabeth Barrett Browning valued intense emotion, social commentary, and a grand scope in literature, which led her to favour the passionate depth of the Brontës over the more restrained, ironical style of Jane Austen. Rowling about her two dogs: “Emma? She's a bundle of love and joy. Her sister, Bronte, is a bundle of opinions, stubbornness and hard boundaries.”Set in the 30s, written in the early 40s, but it seems astonishingly modern. Because her father is a writer, a literary novelist of the modern school, do you think there are other more contemporary novelists Dodie Smith was engaging than Austen and Bronte?Question 11. Mortmain is definitely Joyce, then, though Proust gets the call-out, and perhaps the most important possible take-away Rowling the attentive young reader would have made would have been Smith's embedded admiration for Joyce the “Enigmatist” she puts in Simon's mouth at story's end (Chapter XVI, pp 336-337) and her implicit criticism of literary novels and correction of that failing. Rowling's re-invention of the Schoolboy novel with its hidden alchemical, chiastic, soul-in-crisis-allegories and embedded Christian symbolism can all be seen as her brilliant interpretation of Simon's explanation of art to Cassandra and her dedication to writing a book like I Capture the Castle.* Reference to James Joyce by Simon Cotton, Chapter IX, p 139:* The Simon and Cassandra conversation about her father's novels, call it ‘The Writer as Enigmatist imitating God in His Work:' Chapter XVI, pp 331-334* On Imagination as Transpersonal Faculty and Non-Liturgical Sacred ArtSacred art differs from modern and postmodern conceptions of art most specifically, though, in what it is representing. Sacred art is not representing the natural world as the senses perceive it or abstractions of what the individual and subjective mind “sees,” but is an imitation of the Divine art of creation. The artist “therefore imitates nature not in its external forms but in its manner of operation as asserted so categorically by St. Thomas Aquinas [who] insists that the artist must not imitate nature but must be accomplished in ‘imitating nature in her manner of operation'” (Nasr 2007, 206, cf. “Art is the imitation of Nature in her manner of operation: Art is the principle of manufacture” (Summa Theologia Q. 117, a. I). Schuon described naturalist art which imitates God's creation in nature by faithful depiction of it, consequently, as “clearly luciferian.” “Man must imitate the creative act, not the thing created,” Aquinas' “manner of operation” rather than God's operation manifested in created things in order to produce ‘creations'which are not would-be duplications of those of God, but rather a reflection of them according to a real analogy, revealing the transcendental aspect of things; and this revelation is the only sufficient reason of art, apart from any practical uses such and such objects may serve. There is here a metaphysical inversion of relation [the inverse analogy connecting the principial and manifested orders in consequence of which the highest realities are manifested in their remotest reflections[1]]: for God, His creature is a reflection or an ‘exteriorized' aspect of Himself; for the artist, on the contrary, the work is a reflection of an inner reality of which he himself is only an outward aspect; God creates His own image, while man, so to speak, fashions his own essence, at least symbolically. On the principial plane, the inner manifests the outer, but on the manifested plane, the outer fashions the inner (Schuon 1953, 81, 96).The traditional artist, then, in imitation of God's “exteriorizing” His interior Logos in the manifested space-time plane, that is, nature, instead of depicting imitations of nature in his craft, submits to creating within the revealed forms of his craft, which forms qua intellections correspond to his inner essence or logos.[2] The work produced in imitation of God's “manner of operation” then resembles the symbolic or iconographic quality of everything existent in being a transparency whose allegorical and anagogical content within its traditional forms is relatively easy to access and a consequent support and edifying shock-reminder to man on his spiritual journey. The spiritual function of art is that “it exteriorizes truths and beauties in view of our interiorization… or simply, so that the human soul might, through given phenomena, make contact with the heavenly archetypes, and thereby with its own archetype” (Schuon 1995a, 45-46).Rowling in her novels, crafted with tools all taken from the chest of a traditional Sacred Artist, is writing non-liturgical Sacred Art. Films and all the story experiences derived of adaptations of imaginative literature to screened images, are by necessity Profane Art, which is to say per the meaning of “profane,” outside the temple or not edifying spiritually. Film making is the depiction of how human beings encounter the time-space world through the senses, not an imitation of how God creates and a depiction of the spiritual aspect of the world, a liminal point of entry to its spiritual dimension. Whence my describing it as a “neo-iconoclasm.”I want to close this off with our sharing our favorite scene or conversation in Castle with the hope that our Serious Reader audience will read Capture and share their favorites. You go first, Nick.* Cassandra and Rose Mortmain, country hicks in the Big City of London: Chapter VI, pp 76-77Question 12.

Piše Ifigenija Simonović, bereta Lidija Hartman in Igor Velše. Na bronasto zlatem ovitku knjige esejev Dušana Šarotarja je črno-bela fotografija sedmih veslačev v dolgem čolnu. V levem kotu zgoraj je opazno še eno veslo, veslo osmega veslača. Okrnjena celota. Mar ni tako tudi v življenju? Vedno je še nekaj zadaj, prikrito, neznano. Kakor zgodba, nikoli do kraja povedana. Kakor spomin, nikoli popolnoma razjasnjen. Usklajeno veslanje ekipe kot prispodoba sožitja. In najbolj me zanima veslač, ki ga ni na sliki. Mar ni tako s spomini? Nikoli ni vse do zadnje podrobnosti izpovedano ali izgotovljeno. Sizif in Proust – simbola trenutka in večnosti, vztrajnosti in predanosti. Še preden knjigo odprem, mi fotografija ponuja prvi premor, počivališče pred branjem. Fotografija. Veslači veslajo vzvratno. Nekako na slepo. Zaupati morajo krmarju. Jaz, bralka, moram zaupati pisatelju. Odprem knjigo. Predam se jasno zapisanim mislim, izbornemu jeziku, prepletu presunljivih spominov in fotografij. Spomin na nekaj, na kar smo mislili že večkrat, se vsakič drugače izostri in razkrije. Tudi fotografija je odvisna od osvetljave. Jutranja svetloba, večerna svetloba. Pomemben je izbrani kot. Pri pisanju je pomemben naklon do obravnavane teme, razjasniti je treba iztočišče in bralca pripeljati do poante. Kaj se bo iz predaje določenemu spominu izcimilo? Spoznanje, strah, obžalovanje, obtožba? Ali pa samo informacija? Pisatelj je kot veslač, ki zaupa notranjemu glasu in črpa iz svoje zakladnice znanja in vedenja. Nikoli ne počiva. Tudi ko ne piše, je zamišljen. Obuja spomine. In zapisuje jih v prepričanju, da bojo vredni spominjanja, tudi ko njega več ne bo. Tako pisanje dobiva težo in smisel: "Pomislim, v hoji, pešačenju se skriva nekaj globljega, kar začutim, šele ko se odpravim na daljši sprehod ali pohod, ali po drugi strani, kadar sem sredi pisanja knjige, bodisi romana ali pesniške zbirke. Pišem predvsem v ritmu tistih, ki hodijo peš, torej v dolgih in vase zavitih stavkih. Hoja je način spominjanja." Spominjanje kot proces pisanja ali kot osmišljanje bivanja je osrednja tema Šarotarjevih esejev v zbirki Počivališča na poti. Pisanje je hoja s pogledom nazaj, ki ga prekinja globlji razmislek na razglednih točkah. Na spominskem sprehodu se pridružijo avtorjevi prekmurski literarni predniki in sopotniki Miško Kranjec, Feri Lainšček, Vlado Kreslin, Vlado Žabot in tudi arhitekt Feri Novak, ki je zasnoval Mursko Soboto kot evropsko mesto. Spomeniki in nagrobniki, parki, gradovi, vile, podrte hiše, porušena sinagoga. Močno spominsko ozadje so tudi člani prekmurske judovske skupnosti in Šarotarjeve družine, ki so bili žrtve pregonov Judov v 2. svetovni vojni – in tudi po njej, kakor priča rušenje sinagoge. Judom se je pisatelj posvetil že v romanih Biljard v Dobrayu in Zvezdna karta. Med pisanjem kot obredom spominjanja se oglašajo sorodniki, ki so pisatelja oblikovali v zgodnjem otroštvu. Spominja se tudi prijateljev, ki jih je srečeval na literarnih poteh: Hrvaška, Avstrija, Nemčija, Gruzija, Bosna in Hercegovina, Rusija, Grčija, Italija. Vendar ne gre za literarni žurnalizem ali prezgodaj napisano avtobiografijo. Tudi ne za bahaško samopromocijo. Dogodki si ne sledijo po logiki časa ali prostora, temveč po izbruhih in vrzelih spomina, ki kot neusahljiv bršljan ovija sprotnost: "Kar se dogaja okrog nas, je spomin, vprašanje je samo, kdo se še spominja. Živimo v času hiperprodukcije spominov, računalniki, internet, mobilni telefoni, megalomanski muzeji, digitalne fotografije, vojne, podnebne spremembe, migracije, vzpon skrajne desnice, izhlapevanje levice; zdi se, da je narcisistična kultura spominčkov, selfijev, imidžev, novih identitet preplavila svet s spomini, ki so popolnoma minljivi, trenutni milni mehurčki v vsakdanjosti, ki so že v naslednji sekundi pozabljeni, vendar, pisateljeva naloga je spominjanje. Spominjanje, obnavljanje sveta s pomočjo imaginacije, ohranjanje nevidne sledi z začetkom jezika. Literatura ni samo prenašanje pomena, marveč tudi iskanje smisla." Dušan Šarotar je knjigo esejev zasnoval kot pesnik, ki se nenehno sprašuje o svoji naravi, o drobcu vesolja, iz katerega izhaja, o prostoru pod soncem, ki mu je dodeljen ali ki ga je zavzel s svojim delom. Poezija je nenehno potovanje okrog iste osi. Ni odgovorov, je samo iskanje oziroma vztrajno brskanje po spominu. Brskanje po sebi? In iz česa pravzaprav smo? Iz vsega, kar smo doživeli, brali, čutili, naredili; tudi iz vsega, česar nismo storili in morda obžalujemo izgubljene priložnosti. "Pesništvo je že tisočletja oblika človekovega spraševanja o smislu življenja, predvsem pa iskanje lepega in presežnega, tako so bili prav pesniki tisti, ki so se v davnini prvi spraševali o naravi sveta in skrivnostih vesolja. Tako so nastali prvotni miti, zgodbe in pripovedi o nastanku sveta in človekovem mestu v njem." Šarotarjevi eseji so avtobiografski, vendar njegova osebna zgodba ni v središču pozornosti ali cilj spominjanja kot takega. Pomembnejša je preteklost, ki je kot pisatelj ne sme prepustiti pozabi. Spominjanje jemlje kot dolžnost. Vsakega od petih esejev v zbirki Počivališča na poti avtor uvaja s citatom iz novoveške literature. Edgar Allan Poe, Paul Valery, Edvard Kocbek, Bruno Schulz in Zbigniew Herbert stojijo kot duhovni stebri, na katere se naslanja.

Sanatta ilham gerçekten var mı? “Deha” dediğimiz şey doğuştan mı gelir, yoksa masa başında emekle mi oluşur? Spekülatif'in bu bölümünde kültür üretimi, yaratıcılık ve ilham kavramını tarihten örneklerle ele alıyoruz. Emre Dündar, Michelangelo'nun 24 yaşında yaptığı La Pieta'dan Beethoven'ın eskiz defterlerine, Pascal Dussapin'in ilham reddine, Dostoyevski'den Proust'a kadar yaratıcı süreçlerin arkasındaki gerçekleri konuşuyor. Sanat ilhamla mı yapılır? Sanatta romantik mitler neden hâlâ güçlü? Yoksa üretimin ana gücü irade, çalışma ve tasarım mıdır?

"AI should do your laundry and dishes so you can do art and writing." This week, Tim sits down with Matt Bradley (Partnership Manager at WhyFire and editor of The Fire Time Magazine) to discuss the thoughtful use of AI in business—and the critical distinction between tools that enhance our humanity versus those that erode it. In this episode, Tim and Matt discuss: Why kale, cold showers, and AI all triggered the same stubborn response—and what changed Matt's mind about it Where AI can be used within every hearth business to save time and free up capacity for other things. What to understand about training AI to give you the results you need. How AI is turning us into "pancake people" who are wide but shallow—and what one activity actually prevents it Don't miss this conversation that balances practical AI application with philosophical warning about what we risk losing if we outsource our thinking to artificial intelligence. ------ Links from this episode: Is Google Making Us Stupid?

Teatime with Miss LizDecember 16th, 3 PM ESTGuest: Russell G. Little — “Murder for Me, Courtroom Truths & Stories of the Human Heart” Russell G. Little Truth, Fiction & the Stories Born From a Lifetime in the Courtroom. Where law meets literature and real lives spark unforgettable fiction. Miss Liz doesn't serve a beverage; she serves real-life changemakers.On December 16th, she serves Russell G. Little, Houston-based writer, seasoned divorce attorney, and the author of Murder for Me, a gripping fictionalized blend drawn from the unforgettable characters, cases, and human complexities he witnessed in his 40-year legal career. Born in Amarillo, Texas, where the land is flat, the wind never stops, and the federal government builds bombs, Russell grew up surrounded by grit and resilience. After law school, he married a Houston girl and moved to Houston, where he practiced law for four decades, raised three children, and remained married to his wife, Melinda, for 32 years, a fact that surprises many, given his specialty in divorce law. His work in Family Law and Criminal Law brought him face-to-face with situations both wild and unbelievable, the kind that live quietly in the soul but loudly on the page. Russell has tried over one hundred jury trials, handled hundreds more before a judge, and witnessed the rawest layers of human truth. His upcoming novel, Murder by Storm (October release), continues the battle of pursuit and deception in a hurricane-shaken Houston, a story every reader will want to experience from the safety of their chair. Russell also writes children's books inspired by his granddaughter Vivi, blending adventure with messages of animal care and conservation. Miss Liz will pour a cup of courtroom grit, Texas storytelling, and literary honesty with Russell G. Little, a practicing attorney of four decades and the author of Murder for Me, a crime novel born from real experiences, unforgettable characters, and the emotional residue of hundreds of cases. Born in Amarillo and settled in Houston, Russell has lived a life shaped by wide-open landscapes, courtroom battles, human complexity, and the kind of stories you carry long after the verdict. With more than one hundred jury trials behind him, he has seen the best and worst of people,e and he channels that truth into fiction with depth, empathy, and a sharp eye for detail. Inspired by literary giants like Proust, Dostoevsky, Chekhov, and Hemingway, Russell writes with classic influence, modern grit, and a soul shaped by decades inside the legal arena. His upcoming novel, Murder by Storm, dives into pursuit, deception, and survival as Houston is battered by a hurricane. Outside of crime fiction, his heart shows in the children's books he co-wrote with his wife, stories inspired by his granddaughter Vivi and focused on protecting Africa's remarkable wildlife. Today, we explore law, humanity, writing, truth, tension, family, and the stories that stay with us forever. What an engaging and richly layered Teatime with Russell G. Little, a conversation filled with humanity, humour, honesty, and hard-earned wisdom. Russell will remind us that behind every case is a person, behind every verdict is a story, and behind every courtroom door are truths that can shape a writer forever. His seamless weaving of legal experience into fiction, his love for classic literature, and his heartfelt family stories made today's Teatime unforgettable. Miss Liz will thank Russell for sharing your world, your work, and your wit. And thank you to everyone who joined live or on replay. Your support continues the ripple of storytelling, truth, and transformation. Author of Murder for Me and the upcoming Murder by Storm, he blends courtroom insight with storytelling. He also co-writes children's books inspired by his granddaughter, Vivi. #TeatimeWithMissLiz#RussellGLittle#CrimeFiction#TexasAuthors#CourtroomStories

Junge Frau aus gutem Hause trifft Mann aus gutem Hause, Andere aus besserem oder schlechterem Hause kommen dazwischen. Frau ringt mit sich und der Verwandtschaft zwischen Teatime, Picknick und Tanzball und am Ende wird geheiratet. So schlicht, so Jane Austen – könnte man meinen. Auch Charlotte Brontë fasst ihr Werk später zusammen: „Elegant, aber beschränkt.“ Vladimir Nabukov hingegen stellt Jane Austen in eine Reihe mit Kafka oder Proust. Und heute noch geht es auch Otto-Normal-Lesern nicht anders: Die einen stellen die Schriftstellerin in die Kitschecke, die anderen verehren sie fast kulthaft – auch gerade junge Menschen. Warum löst Jane Austen diese heftige Reaktionen aus? Und was hat sie uns heute noch zu sagen?

Artiste protéiforme (dessinatrice, musicienne, illustratrice...) Fanny Michaëlis a publié il y a quelques semaines sa quatrième bande dessinée, C'est ainsi que je suis née. Dans ce conte initiatique, on suit une jeune femme née “à l'envers”, qui peu à peu s'émancipe et découvre un monde traversé par la violence et les inégalités. Dessiné en noir et blanc, ce récit intime se transforme peu à peu en véritable manifeste politique. Une œuvre forte, sensible et engagée, qui nous donne l'occasion d'échanger avec Fanny Michaëlis sur sa pratique, son dessin, et sa vision de l'art. Et, comme toujours, elle se prêtera aussi à notre questionnaire de Proust version BD. Bonne écoute !Hébergé par Audiomeans.

Han pasado diez años de aquel 13 de noviembre que supuso un trauma para Francia. Aquellos atentados dejaron 132 muertos y se inscribieron en una secuencia larga, de años de plomo del terrorimo yihadista que remitió ya con el fin del califato en 2017. Aquella noche de terror generó un efecto de unión temporal, pero también terminó acelerando la polarización y la radicalización de la política francesa entorno a asuntos como la laicidad. Una década después, hoy nos proponemos mirar desde la atalaya del tiempo para hacer la radiografía de aquellas cicatrices, de aquel trauma colectivo del 13N. Nos acompañan: -Florencia Ángeles, corresponsal W radio en Francia -Marine de La Moissonière, periodista en RFI y cubrió el juicio de los atentados y ha estado mucho en contacto con las víctimas. -Raphaël Proust, periodista en L´Opinion -Pompeo Coppola, periodista especializado en asuntos internacionales Coordinación editorial: Florencia Valdés y Julia Courtois Realización: Robin Cussenod, Yann Bourdelas, Vanessa Loiseau Presenta: Carlos Herranz.

En Tunisie, les femmes ont toujours été majoritaires dans le domaine de la pâtisserie traditionnelle. Mais depuis quelques années, de jeunes pâtissières bouleversent les codes, optant pour une pâtisserie à la française, allégée en sucre et diversifiée. Une manière de revendiquer une créativité et une originalité tout en s'inspirant des recettes des pâtisseries ancestrales. À la pâtisserie Boulevard des Capucines, en banlieue nord de Tunis, Salma Langar, 36 ans, donne ses instructions de la journée pour la conception de ses gâteaux. Depuis onze ans, cette passionnée s'adonne à la pâtisserie haut de gamme. « Je voulais faire ça depuis toute petite, j'ai grandi dans une famille de cuisiniers. Mon père avait un restaurant, donc j'ai ouvert les yeux dans le restaurant de mon père et aussi dans la cuisine de ma grand-mère qui est une grande cuisinière. J'ai grandi en cuisinant les gâteaux traditionnels, avec elle et avec mes tantes. Vraiment chaque Ramadan, chaque Aïd », raconte-t-elle. Et pourtant, dans les vitrines de sa pâtisserie, les douceurs traditionnelles tunisiennes sont absentes. Salma a misé sur la différence. On trouve des opéras revisités, des tartes aux fruits, des trompe-l'œil, dont le best-seller, un saucisson chocolat noisette... « J'aime bien qu'on s'amuse avec la pâtisserie. Puisque ici les gens ne peuvent pas manger de la charcuterie de porc, on s'est dit ''on va leur faire une charcuterie en chocolat''. Et les gens adorent », s'amuse-t-elle. Pour cette cheffe, formée entre la Tunisie et la France, notamment chez le chef pâtissier Cyril Lignac, le terrain de la pâtisserie en Tunisie est un tremplin pour les femmes et laisse place à la créativité. « On voit beaucoup de femmes qui sont en train de se lancer, même qui sont en train de faire des reconversions professionnelles, c'est ça qui est beau », s'enthousiasme-t-elle. À lire aussiLes délices du continent: en Tunisie, le mleoui est une institution de la street food [4/10] Une reconversion qui a fait le succès de sa collègue, Kawther Hattab, à la tête d'une autre pâtisserie, Madeleine et Proust. Dans son enseigne, la précision et le dosage sont les maîtres mots. Kawther, 40 ans, ancienne ingénieure, s'est amourachée de la pâtisserie à travers le jeu sur la matière. « Je me suis inspirée de ce que j'aimais manger : la fleur d'oranger, l'eau de rose, etc. Mais à ma façon et en l'intégrant dans des mousses, des recettes françaises. C'est aussi comme ça que j'ai des combinaisons entre les saveurs tunisiennes, la Méditerranée et la France », détaille-t-elle. Dans un pays qui compte 16% de diabétiques, Kawther a voulu aussi innover en diminuant le sucre. « Je n'ai pas travaillé uniquement sur le sucre, j'ai travaillé également sur le gras, parce que c'est un ratio. Si on diminue seulement le sucre, le taux de gras augmente, donc on n'est pas sur une recette qui est forcément saine ou avec moins de calories », explique-t-elle. La recette fonctionne car la pâtisserie vient d'ouvrir un café dédié au brunch. Salma, elle, a inauguré une boutique de glaces artisanales, nommée Lou, inspirée des recettes italiennes.

Aujourd'hui, Basilic met en lumière un épisode de Soif de Sens avec Claire Vallée, cheffe autodidacte qui a décroché la première étoile Michelin pour une cuisine 100 % végétale avec ONA – et l'étoile verte qui récompense une approche responsable. Au micro de Pierre Chevelle, Claire raconte un parcours singulier : de l'archéologie aux fourneaux, un détour par l'Asie, l'apprentissage des fermentations, la sobriété énergétique en cuisine et l'art de fédérer un quartier quand les banques tournent le dos. On parle leadership au féminin dans un milieu encore très masculin, mais surtout nouveaux récits culinaires où le végétal devient source d'exploration et de plaisir.Ce dialogue déborde d'écologie concrète (circuits courts, énergie renouvelable, zéro déchet), de bien-être (émotions en cuisine, madeleine de Proust version végétale), et d'utopie très réelle : proposer une gastronomie durable et positive sans renoncer à la gourmandise. Des tables éphémères à six couverts jusqu'à son ancrage près de Nantes, Claire invente des expériences totales : scénographie, boissons fermentées maison, épices d'exception et transmission. Sa cuisine prouve qu'un plat peut émouvoir, relier des inconnus à la même table et déplacer nos imaginaires alimentaires.Pourquoi cette curation ? Parce qu'ici cuisine ouvre un horizon positif et accessible : moins d'empreinte, plus de saveurs, des producteurs mis à l'honneur et une cheffe qui partage ses doutes, ses ratés et ses victoires – bref, du journalisme de solutions version gastronomique.Pour découvrir le travail de Pierre, ça se passe par ici : https://soifdesens.fr/Et pour soutenir Basilic il vous suffit de vous abonner au podcast, laisser un commentaire sur Spotify ou lire la newsletter sur Kessel !
Certains en mettent seulement quelques gouttes au creux du cou, sur les poignets, ou le vaporisent, d'autres semblent avoir vidé toute la bouteille. À l'origine, rituel sacré, utilisé ensuite pour dissimuler les mauvaises odeurs, le parfum revêt aujourd'hui bien d'autres significations. Derrière ce geste du quotidien, se cache un désir de séduction, de montrer son pouvoir, sa sensibilité ou tout simplement l'envie de sentir bon. Le parfum révèle aussi beaucoup de celui ou celle qui le porte. On associe d'ailleurs certaines senteurs au genre féminin, d'autres au masculin, fleuries pour les filles, boisées pour les garçons. Tout le monde a en tête un parfum qu'il reconnaîtrait parmi mille. Celui d'un amoureux ou d'une amoureuse, d'un parent, d'un être cher.

Russell G. Little is a writer and practicing divorce attorney. Murder for Me is a fictionalized compilation of the many people he's encountered over his lifetime and thirty-two-year career. He lives in Houston, Texas, with his wife of thirty-two years, Melinda.Bio: An interesting fact is that I practiced law for forty years, I tried over one hundred jury trials and hundreds more before a Judge alone. Along the way I came across some unbelievable situations. While not all can be told, they can feed my stories, and I can write those.I write on a regular basis, but I'm not always productive. Some days I get up and erase the whole days previous work because I woke up and realized that, unlike the night before, now I thought it was garbage. My oldest son gives me grief about that.My favorite authors are not modern. I read Proust, Dostoevsky, and Chekhov. When I'm in a writer's block, I read Hemingway's The Sun Also Rises. The chapters about sitting in a Paris café always gets me back to the keyboard. The love of writing is what I got from those authors.Make sure to check out this author https://www.russelllittleauthor.com/You can listen to the podcast on Apple Podcast, Spotify, Google Podcast, or visit my website www.drkatherinehayes.com
