Craving childhood comfort foods? You're not alone—and there's a fascinating reason why certain tastes and memories hit us harder than others.Discover how food nostalgia and emotional anchors shape what we crave, what we remember, and what we mourn when we change our diets. From Swiss rolls that lit up lunchtime to the magic of childhood candies, explore how our food memories aren't just about taste, they're about safety, routine, and identity. We break down the science behind the Proust effect, revealing how smells and flavors trigger emotional memories that can influence your food choices today. You'll discover how nostalgia keeps some foods alive in our hearts (and mouths), even if they no longer serve our health. Plus, learn why your palate evolution, and the changing ingredients in beloved treats, make some foods taste completely different now.This episode is perfect for anyone navigating dietary changes, battling food cravings, or curious about the deep connection between food and emotion. Whether you miss the thrill of a childhood treat or want to understand your ongoing food rituals, you'll leave with a new perspective on the grief, and joy, of eating.Why do we grieve our favorite foods? How do memories shape your current cravings? And what does your food nostalgia say about who you are today? Tune in to explore these questions—and maybe even find the courage to indulge in that nostalgic snack guilt-free.Warning: listening may inspire you to revisit some old favorites, but beware—you might just start craving a Swiss roll or a big bag of Doritos all over again.

Our Special Subject for June is Wong Kar-wai's so-called "Love Trilogy": Days of Being Wild (1990), In the Mood for Love (2000), and 2046 (2004). Our discussion walks a tightrope of abstraction as we consider the philosophical implications of Wong's treatment of the theme of love: whether it can be consummated and how time, secrets, androids, and epistemology are involved.

9e art - le podcast de la Cité Internationale de la Bande Dessinée et de l'Image d'Angoulême

Dès son premier album, Juliette Brocal frappe un grand coup. Paru aux éditions Rue de Sèvres, La Langue des vipèresdéploie un récit captivant dans un univers foisonnant et remarquablement maîtrisé, où l'imaginaire médiéval se mêle à des décors d'une grande richesse. Un coup d'essai particulièrement impressionnant pour cette jeune autrice, qui a fait ses armes dans l'animation tout en nourrissant depuis toujours une passion pour la bande dessinée. Nous avons donc le plaisir de la recevoir dans ce podcast pour évoquer la genèse de cet album, son parcours et ses inspirations. Elle se prête également à notre traditionnel questionnaire de Proust version BD. Bonne écoute !Hébergé par Audiomeans. Visitez audiomeans.fr/politique-de-confidentialite pour plus d'informations.

Claque och Pellaböckerna: Sentenserna sitter som slaktstämplar!

Anna Lisa Wärnlöf, alias Claque, har aldrig fått en framträdande plats i den svenska litteraturen. Men hon är en av våra stora stilister, tycker Ulrika Knutson som hyllar Pella-böckernas skapare. Lyssna på alla avsnitt i Sveriges Radios app. ESSÄ: Detta är en text där skribenten reflekterar över ett ämne eller ett verk. Åsikter som uttrycks är skribentens egna. Essän sändes första gången 2017. Varför är det så svårt att tala om det som betytt allra mest, också böcker? Därför att man är rädd att avslöja sitt innersta, förstås, och finna det banalt. Men om det skulle vara så, så är det inte Anna-Lisa Wärnlöfs fel. Någon sa häromdagen att om Anna-Lisa Wärnlöf, med signaturen Claque, hade varit karl, så hade hon stått ordentligt synlig på klassikerhyllan: avdelningen stilister, mellan Per Rådström och Claes Hylinger. Visst skulle det vara så! Men förklädd till flickbok och kåseri är Claque för alltid utstraffad från den riktiga litteraturen. Ha. På ofattbara sju år, 1958-1965 skriver hon de fyra romanerna om Pella, tre om den buttra Fredrike och hennes krets, och så den märkliga barndomsbiografin ”Boken om Agnes”, 1963. Detta är Claques litterära verk och värld, som nu alltså lever ett rikt liv under klassikerhyllan, under radarn, och älskas hett i hemlighet. Hon går som ett mycel genom bibiotek och antikvariat. Varhelst du minst anar det kan du hitta en läsare flaskmatad med Pella-sentenser. De sitter som slaktstämplar, går aldrig ur. Den som först kom ut ur garderoben som Pella-beroende var Gun-Britt Sundström, ett stilistiskt barn av Sören Kirkegaard – och Claque. Anna-Lisa Wärnlöf – född 1911, död 1987 – var som mest verksam under det tidiga sextiotalet, samtida med miljonprogrammet. Hennes ton gycklar med det andliga rivningsraseriet, den snabba nivelleringen i demokratins namn; en estetisk protest besläktad med Olle Adolphsons visor. Hos Claque finns samma ironiska melankoli, och sinne för ordens poesi. Hos Olle var det "nedisad Volvo med släp", och "kokt kummel med äggsås". Anna-Lisa har samma blick för det konkreta. Majorskan sitter i skymningen och "njuter av att ha två tummar", Pella kräks i duffelkragen vid tanken på att trassla till altaret i tolv meter organza. I fyrtio år övade hon sig som kåsör i Svenska Dagbladet, uppskattad men skygg. På fyrtio år satte hon inte sin fot på redaktionen. Men lilla Pella och farmor Majorskan och tant Signhild levde redan och verkade för fullt i tidningen när Wärnlöf romandebuterade med ”Pellas bok” 1958. När jag mötte Pella i början av sjuttiotalet var de här böckerna bara tio-femton år gamla, ändå speglade de en försvunnen värld, med exotiska inslag av flickskolor, hembiträden och bostadsbrist. Och spridda skurar av borgerlig bildning, som om det hade varit något fullt normalt och ingenting att oroa sig över. Pella själv läste böcker av Proust, Dickens och Cora Sandel – och hon gjorde det med ett självklart välbehag, utan känslor av skam. Detta var inte förenligt med min tonårskultur i början av sjuttiotalet, som utspelade sig i en atmosfär av V-jeans, tristess och symfonisk rock. Om jag hade velat spegla den atmosfären i litteratur så gav Kerstin Thorvall, Sven Wernström och Max Lundgren utmärkta möjligheter, i ungdomsromanens guldålder. Men böckerna om Pella ägnar sig inte bara åt spegling, utan gläntar på kommande liv. De kan man – till stora delar – läsa om, och växa med. Anna-Lisa Wärnlöf låter tonåringens världsbild möta riktigt gamla människors, och mycket små barns. En åtta månaders baby kan vara en stark personlighet hos Claque, som kan väcka dina antipatier också. Att föräldrar och barn, särskilt mödrar och barn, inte självklart finner varandra är en del av Claqueböckernas tidlösa innehåll. Och oavsett ålder får alla inblandade behålla sin integritet – och sina passioner. Passion kan uttryckas av också av det lilla barnet. Som i ”Boken om Agnes”, när småflickorna har skiljts åt och katastrofen ligger i öppen dager. Om hjärtat är krossat spelar det ingen roll om man är sex eller sextio år. Så här uttrycker sig den lilla Anna-Lisa: "Jag var Agneslös, och inte mer med det. Hur gör man när man hänger sig? Jag hade en pilbåge. Kanalen." Humor kan vara hjärtskärande, om den paras med livsinsikt. Att våra personligheter är så oföränderliga, att vi liknar oss själva som barn, är också en drabbande insikt. Inte särskilt behaglig. Det borde vi tänka lite mer på i vår tid, när vi vuxna är så stressade att vi inte står ut med att se barnen ha tråkigt. Eller ens tanken på att de har tråkigt! Hur de egentligen har det orkar vi inte ta reda på. Läste nyss en rubrik om att folk minutplanerar barnkalasen för att för död och pina inte riskera att barnen ser sin egen leda i vitögat. Vad skulle inte Claque kunna ha gjort av det ämnet? Vissa ämnen har hon klokt avstått ifrån – sexualiteten till exempel. Det bidrar till den goda tidlösheten. Erotiken uttrycks mer genom längtan och bilder som man inte glömmer: som Älskar du mig? sa Ulf Jacob. Obetydligt, sa jag, och tänderna mjuknade i min mun. Jag kan inte minnas att jag saknade explicit erotik – den fanns ju att tillgå överallt annars, för den som var läskunnig. Nej, Pella tillfredsställde andra behov. De två avgörande var den moralfilosofiska diskussionen, och stilens narkomani. Anna-Lisa Wärnlöfs stil är beroendeframkallande. Och smittsam. En pretentiös hållning ser jag automatiskt som "ett öde stort som en mössa". Att det inte är min egen bild ha jag glömt för länge sedan. Men ingen når Claques avvägda blandning av under- och överdrifter, och utförda aforismer, som kan rymma en världsbild: "Om ett barn ber om ett snöre, avfärda det inte med en kyss. Ge det ett snöre". Punktens placering är också viktig. Den surt förvärvade slutsatsens markering. Ge det ett snöre. Claque strör gärna ut små hälsningar till egna inspirationskällor. Den märkligaste möter vi i Pellas andra bok, där hon just har blivit kär i Ulf Jacob. På artonårsdagen ger han henne en nött gammal bok: "Läs den tös, du får den. Den är skriven för sådana som du och jag." Den repliken är lömsk, riktad till intellektuella flickstackare med garden nere – den går via trosorna, kan man säga. Men om man ska sublimera den boken får man jobba duktigt. Boken är ”En drömmares dagbok”, av den schweiziske artonhundratalsförfattaren Henri Frederic Amiel. Det blir en ganska rolig effekt när Pella och Ulf Jacob står och smusslar med Amiel, samtidigt som deras kompisar diggar Sinatra och Bill Haley på skivspelaren i rummet intill. Amiels ”En drömmares dagbok” blev på sin tid kult bland hyperkänsliga esteter i hela Europa, kärleksfullt översatt av en av den svenska litteraturens mest ömhudade kritiker, nämligen Klara Johanson; hon som recenserade allt, som inte kunde låta bli att recensera solnedgången. Ett nytt drama varje kväl. Klara Johansons andra stora idol var för övrigt Fredrika Bremer, vars spetsprydliga feminism viftar fram överallt i Pellas farmor Majorskans referenser. Klara Johanson är en av Claques viktiga förebilder bland estetiska ironiker – Oscar Wilde en annan – och så förstås Cora Sandel och Marcel Proust. Anna-Lisa Wärnlöf bakar också Madeleinekakor, med kärlek och smör, och psykiska trauman. En bild som återkommer i flera av böckerna, troligen självupplevd, är när några några clowner fallit i vattnet, och människorna på stranden skrattar av hjärtans lust, men tystnar när en av clownerna bärs bort, drunknad. Barnet grips av en förlamande ödslighet, identiteten brister. Som det står i ”Boken om Agnes”: "Det slog mig att jag kanske inte var någon liten flicka. Kanske var jag en pojke. Kanske var jag ett troll eller möjligen något slags djur." Det är det som alla Claques texter handlar om. Att skrapa ihop de spridda bitarna av sig själv, till ett slags mönster.

¿Y si olvidar fuera necesario para sanar? Memoria, ansiedad y trauma | La teoría de la mente Descripción SEO Únete a nuestra comunidad “El mapa de la ansiedad”: https://www.skool.com/elmapadelaansiedad Un espacio donde encontrarás cursos, recursos y una comunidad para entender mejor tu ansiedad, compartir con personas que viven experiencias parecidas y avanzar paso a paso con más claridad. ¿Y si recordar demasiado no fuera una bendición, sino una condena? En este episodio de La teoría de la mente, exploramos una de las preguntas más profundas de la psicología, la neurociencia y la literatura: ¿qué somos realmente cuando recordamos? Y, sobre todo, ¿qué ocurre cuando el pasado deja de ser pasado y empieza a gobernar nuestro presente? Partimos de Funes el memorioso, el inolvidable personaje de Borges, capaz de recordarlo todo con una precisión casi imposible. A primera vista, podría parecer un superpoder. Pero Borges nos muestra algo más inquietante: una memoria perfecta puede impedirnos pensar, porque pensar también implica olvidar, resumir, seleccionar y dar sentido. No podemos vivir atrapados en cada detalle de lo ocurrido. Necesitamos distancia para comprender. También viajamos hasta Proust y su famosa magdalena, esa imagen maravillosa de cómo un olor, una canción o un sabor pueden devolvernos de golpe a un momento de nuestra vida. La memoria no es solo un archivo mental: a veces es una puerta emocional. Pero no todas las puertas conviene dejarlas abiertas para siempre. En este episodio hablamos de Eric Kandel, Premio Nobel y uno de los grandes científicos de la memoria, que mostró cómo la experiencia cambia físicamente el cerebro. Aprender no es solo adquirir información: es transformarnos. Nuestros recuerdos, nuestros miedos, nuestras heridas y nuestras respuestas de ansiedad están escritos, de algún modo, en nuestra biología. Pero esto también abre una puerta esperanzadora: si la experiencia cambia el cerebro, nuevas experiencias pueden ayudarnos a cambiar. También aparece la historia de Henry Molaison, el famoso paciente H.M., cuya vida permitió entender que no tenemos una sola memoria, sino muchas. Hay memorias conscientes, pero también memorias corporales, emocionales y automáticas. A veces no recordamos algo con claridad, pero lo obedecemos. Nos tensamos, evitamos, nos protegemos o reaccionamos como si el pasado siguiera ocurriendo. Por eso este episodio conecta la memoria con la ansiedad, el pánico y el trauma. En el trauma, el problema no es simplemente recordar mucho, sino que el pasado entra en el presente sin permiso. No se trata de borrar lo ocurrido, sino de colocarlo en otro lugar. De conseguir que el recuerdo no mande siempre. De transformar una herida abierta en una cicatriz: algo que cuenta que dolió, pero también que la piel hizo su trabajo. Si alguna vez has sentido que tu ansiedad repite siempre la misma historia, este episodio puede ayudarte a comprender por qué. La memoria puede castigarnos, pero también puede integrarnos. Recordar no es almacenar. Olvidar no siempre es perder. Y sanar quizá tenga que ver con permitir que algunas escenas dejen de ocupar el centro de nuestra vida.

Ker so romani izjemno raznoliki po svojem obsegu, obliki in vsebini, tudi ni nemudoma jasno, kaj bi utegnila biti tista njihova skupna lastnost, zaradi katere jih vendarle lahko spravimo pod isto oznako: romanTolstojeva Ana Karenina je, kot dobro vemo, precej špehata knjiga, medtem ko je Cankarjeva Hiša Marije Pomočnice čisto tanka. Goethejevo Trpljenje mladega Wertherja se sklene tragično, s samomorom, medtem ko se Prevzetnost in pristranost Jane Austen izteče v pravi pravcati happy end. Cervantesov Don Kihot kar kipi od napetih prigod in preobratov, medtem ko Oblomov, osrednji junak v istoimenskem delu Gončarova, komaj vstane iz postelje. Povedi, v katerih je Proust izpisal V Swannovem svetu, so vratolomno nalomljene v številna priredja in podredja, ki v iskanju končne pike zlahka bohotno napolnijo celo stran ali še več, medtem ko so Hemingwayevi stavki v Komu zvoni poudarjeno kratki, čvrsti, strogo obvladani. Medtem ko García Márquez v Stotih letih samote po svoje popisuje zgodovino Kolumbije, nam Cao Xueqin s Sanjami v rdeči sobi slika osupljivo podobo Kitajske sredi 18. stoletja. In ko smo že pri stoletjih – Petronij je svoj Satirikon pisal v prvem, Han Kang pa svojo Vegetarijanko v enaindvajsetem. Ni kaj, svetovni romaneskni kanon sestavljajo dela, ki si med seboj niso niti malo podobna. Pa vendar za vse te knjige pravimo, da so to romani. Zakaj? Kaj neki bi utegnila biti tista njihova sicer izmuzljiva, težko ugotovljiva, skrivnostna, a vendar skupna lastnost, ki nam omogoča, da jih – pa naj bodo še tako različni med seboj – vendarle lahko spravimo pod isto oznako: roman? – To je vprašanje, ki nas je zaposlovalo v tokratnem Kulturnem fokusu, ko smo pred mikrofonom gostili komparativista, predavatelja na Oddelku za primerjalno književnost in literarno teorijo ljubljanske Filozofska fakultete, akad. dr. Toma Virka. Naš gost je namreč pred nekaj meseci pri Založbi Univerze v Ljubljani izdal razpravo Spisi o teorijah romana, kjer na pregleden in komunikativen način pretresa nekaj najbolj intrigantnih, intelektualno ambicioznih teorij, ki so jih v 20. stoletju ponudili raziskovalci literature, da bi odgovorili na zagonetno vprašanje, kaj je to roman oziroma, še natančneje, po čem je roman pravzaprav roman.

On this episode, we dial down the sharpness and celebrate cinematic blurriness.Going against the common assumption that blur is only for backgrounds, a new book by Professor Martine Beugnet explores the power and poetics of the blurred image. Originally published in French in 2017, Blur (2026) is part of the Cutaways series from Fordham University Press, where authors take a close look at one particular cinematic theme or motif.Martine has published widely on film theory and aesthetics since the early 2000s, with highly influential books such as  a monograph on director Claire Denis, Proust at the Movies, Cinema and Sensation: French Cinema and the Art of Transgression and dozens of articles, book chapters and edited collections. She is currently Professor in Visual Studies at Université Paris Cité but she spent more than a decade of the early part of her career teaching here at the University of Edinburgh.Martine tells Pasquale about the process of having her work translated and the appeal of the short format volume. She talks about her choice of film examples which range from mainstream Hollywood cinema to experimental film, silent cinema to contemporary works. Discussion then turns to the many ways in which filmmakers employ blur, whether it's to create ambiguity, to delineate a sense of character subjectivity or to shift back and forth in time.Films mentioned in the discussion include Vertigo (Alfred Hitchcock, 1958), The Ipcress File (Sidney J. Furie, 1965), La captive (Chantal Akerman, 2000), Son of Saul (László Nemes, 2015) and In Water (Hong Sang Soo, 2023).

When the Guardian drops a list of the 100 Greatest Novels in English it's time to drop everything to talk about it. Luckily pod-regular guest, journalist Phil Chaffee and Joseph Dance, host of the Curious Readers podcast, also had views, and were willing to get together on a Sunday evening to share them. You'll hear our hits, our misses, how many we've read, whether we should have read more and much musing on whether a list like this is the way to get people excited about reading. We explore the joys of the sub-lists – the contributor lists – all squirrelled away on a sub-section of the Guardian's website, that arguably provide more excitement and inspiration than the fairly canonical top 100. Which is the best Brontë? Which is the best Austen? Do we age into certain books? If you've read all seven volumes of Proust shouldn't that count for more than one entry? All this and much, much more.

Stefano Poggi"Il mito dell'istante"I filosofi davanti al tempo: da Schelling a DerridaAnders Solferinowww.solferinolibri.itLa riflessione sul problema del tempo è uno dei temi fondamentali della tradizione filosofica occidentale.Ma gli ultimi due secoli – l'Ottocento e il Novecento – ne hanno visto una profonda trasformazione. Gli sviluppi dell'indagine scientifica si sono intrecciati con la maturazione di una inedita concezione della soggettività e della coscienza. Sono state riprese e affrontate con nuovi occhi questioni antichissime, in primo luogo quella già posta da sant'Agostino («Cos'è davvero il tempo? Lo so, ma non lo so spiegare »). Ci si è interrogati sui modi in cui il tempo viene vissuto, misurato, narrato, condiviso. È così apparso con sempre maggior chiarezza che il tempo è la realtà dello stesso nostro esistere, che il tempo – come scrive Borges – «è la sostanza di cui sono fatto». Per questo, del tempo, parliamo sempre come di un divenire, di un fluire. Un divenire, un fluire apparso non di rado come una successione di istanti. Istanti in cui fermare il tempo, arrestarlo nell'attimo «così bello» del Faust, riuscire in un'impresa che però, di fronte ai nuovi saperi scientifici, appare destinata a ridursi in speranza, a rivelarsi un'illusione. L'istante non esiste. E, se esiste, forse altro non può essere che l'eternità.Partendo da Hegel e Schelling per arrivare a Bergson, Russell, Heidegger e senza dimenticare i grandi «narratori del tempo» come Proust e Joyce, Stefano Poggi racconta gli episodi di una storia che non ci è presente in tutta la sua decisiva importanza perché è spesso sotterranea, ma che ha inciso nel profondo sulla nostra stessa identità di uomini moderni.Stefano Poggi ha insegnato Storia della filosofia all'Università di Firenze, è stato presidente della Società Filosofica Italiana e ha diretto «Intersezioni. Rivista di storia delle idee». Tra i suoi numerosi libri ricordiamo: La logica, la mistica, il nulla (2006), La vera storia della Regina di Biancaneve (2007), I viaggi dei filosofi (2010), L'io dei filosofi e l'io dei narratori (2011), L'anima e il cristallo (2014), Il colore e l'ombra (2019), Individuo e destino (2025).Diventa un supporter di questo podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/il-posto-delle-parole--1487855/support.IL POSTO DELLE PAROLEascoltare fa pensarehttps://ilpostodelleparole.it/

Le 10 août 2015, à Locarno, Chantal Akerman présente avec émotion son dernier film, No Home Movie. Cette œuvre intime rend hommage à sa mère Natalia, rescapée d'Auschwitz et figure centrale de sa vie. Le récit revient ensuite sur les débuts d'Akerman à Bruxelles, marqués par Saute ma ville, court-métrage déjà traversé par la mort et la révolte. Inspirée par Godard, New York et le cinéma expérimental, elle impose très vite une voix singulière. En 1975, Jeanne Dielman la fait entrer dans l'histoire du cinéma. Refusant les cases, elle explore ensuite fiction, documentaire, comédie musicale, installations et adaptation de Proust. Toute son œuvre interroge le temps, l'absence, la mémoire, la condition féminine et l'héritage de la Shoah. La mort de sa mère en 2014 la plonge dans un chagrin profond. Malgré l'art, les films et les proches, la douleur devient insurmontable. Chantal Akerman se suicide en 2015, laissant une œuvre immense, libre et imprévisible.

Le metteur en scène Jean Bellorini met en scène le roman du lauréat du Prix Goncourt 2018 « L'ordre du jour » d'Éric Vuillard.  Dans les moindres détails, Éric Vuillard raconte dans son récit L'ordre du jour le rendez-vous entre Hitler et les industriels allemands, le 20 février 1933, mais aussi le diner entre Chamberlain alors Premier ministre britannique et Ribbentrop, ambassadeur d'Allemagne en Angleterre ou encore les préparatifs à l'invasion de l'Autriche par l'Allemagne en mars 1938… Ce roman couronné par le Prix Goncourt en 2017 est aujourd'hui adapté par Jean Bellorini à la Comédie française. Du roman à la scène Ce n'est pas la première fois que Jean Bellorini adapte un roman au théâtre, puisqu'il avait déjà mis en scène Les frères Karamazov de Dostoïevski, À la recherche du temps perdu de Proust ou encore les Misérables de Hugo. « C'est ce qu'il y a de plus théâtral selon moi, le théâtre récit.

À leurs pieds, vingt-quatre paires de chaussures noires, savamment disposées en carré, complètent ce tableau.  Derrière les masques, les figures de pouvoir paraissent d'autant plus fortes… et d'autant plus inquiétantes.

Mariolina Bertini"Adieu"Honoré de Balzacil ramo e la foglia edizioniwww.ilramoelafogliaedizioni.itEstate del 1819. Nel parco di un antico convento in rovina nel cuore dell'Île de France un'apparizione folgora due cacciatori di passaggio: una donna misteriosa e bellissima, dai lunghi riccioli incolti e dal pallore spettrale, che sembra incarnare la natura selvaggia del luogo. Il suo passato è una storia d'amore, di follia e di morte che condurrà il lettore in Russia, sulle rive della Beresina, facendogli rivivere la disfatta e la tragica ritirata dell'esercito napoleonico. “Adieu” è uno dei racconti della Commedia umana in cui più completamente viene in luce la complessità e la ricchezza del genio di Balzac. Vi troviamo il romanziere che gareggia con i pittori suoi contemporanei nella rappresentazione dell'“armonioso disordine” di un paesaggio fiabesco. Accanto a questo Balzac dall'ispirazione tutta visiva c'è il “grande storico” caro a Baudelaire, attento a raccontare la ritirata di Russia traducendo fedelmente in immagini il racconto di testimoni e memorialisti. E c'è infine il Balzac appassionato ai misteri della scienza, che si interroga sul linguaggio segreto della follia e sui rapporti tra la vita delle nostre emozioni e la forza del pensiero.«La donna si lasciò sfuggire un grido di dolore e si alzò del tutto. I suoi movimenti si succedevano con tanta grazia ed erano così rapidi che non pareva una creatura umana ma una di quelle figlie dell'aria celebrate dalla poesia di Ossian. Andò verso uno specchio d'acqua, scosse leggermente una gamba per sbarazzarsi della scarpa e parve immergere con piacere il piede bianco come l'alabastro in quella sorgente […] Poi si inginocchiò sul bordo della fontana e si divertì, come una bambina, a immergervi i lunghi capelli e a tirarli fuori bruscamente, per veder cadere goccia a goccia l'acqua di cui si erano imbevuti e che, attraversata dai raggi del sole, formava come dei rosari di perle.»Mariolina Bertini ha insegnato Letteratura francese all'Università di Parma dal 1988 al 2017. Ha curato edizioni italiane di Proust e di Balzac e il volume dei Meridiani Mondadori dedicato ai saggi di Giovanni Macchia.

It is common to develop strong associations between a piece of a music and a particular period (or moment) in our lives. Proust wrote precisely about the same phenomenon, only with reading instead of listening. Could the entanglement of trigger and thought become intentional, curated, and provoked – a calculated circumstance guarantee for a given sound to engage the change of scenery in the theater of the mind, and to give way to a moment, any time, forever? This is a small meditation on memory, communication and community, driven by chance and curiosity. Includes excerpts of: 森の目覚め (Awakening Of The Forest), by Takashi Kokubo (小久保隆) (from Oasis of the Wind II ~ A Story of Forest and Water ~ (風のオアシスII~森と水の物語~), 1993) Han Yan - Carl Stone (from Himalaya, 2019) an assortment of recordings, including Jannik Lindquist on the ukulele, Alvilda Reiter Jakobsen & Amanda with guests and friends on various instruments, a football match in Greece, a café somewhere in Ljubljana, parties, etc. words by special guests Sarah May and Jannik Lindquist, to whom the utmost gratitude is extended and a full performance of Blink, by Hiroshi Yoshimura (from Music For Nine Post Cards, 1992).

The Philosophy of Translation (Yale UP, 2024) is a fresh, approachable, and convincing account of what translation really is and what translators actually do. As the translator of sixty books from multiple languages, Damion Searls has spent decades grappling with words on the most granular level: nouns and verbs, accents on people's names, rhymes, rhythm, “untranslatable” cultural nuances. In this book, he connects a wealth of specific examples to larger philosophical issues of reading and perception. Translation, he argues, is fundamentally a way of reading—but reading is much more than taking in information, and translating is far from a mechanical process of converting one word to another. This sharp and inviting exploration of the theory and practice of translation is for anyone who has ever marveled at the beauty, force, and movement of language. In this episode, Ibrahim Fawzy sat down with Damion Searls to discuss The Philosophy of Translation, exploring what it truly means to read as a translator, how grammar shapes worldview, and where creativity lives in the space between languages. Damion Searls studied philosophy at Harvard and is a prominent translator from German, Norwegian, French, and Dutch, including books by Nietzsche, Wittgenstein, Rilke, Proust, Kielland, Jelinek, Schwitters, Mann, Modiano, and Fosse. His own books include the novel Analog Days, the poetry volume The Mariner's Mirror, and The Inkblots, a history of the Rorschach test and biography of its creator. Ibrahim Fawzy is an Egyptian literary translator and writer. He is the translator of Hassan Akram's A Plan to Save the World (Sandorf Passage, 2026). His interests include translation studies, Arabic literature, ecocriticism, disability studies, and migration literature.
