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.

Mark Chiarello—"Mark swung his chair around to face me as I entered the room, a look of wild concern on his face. I had Johnny, the Rousseau kid with me, we were looking for lunch. 'Hey, Man!' Mark said, 'Where did my podcast go? I've listened to every episode now three times!' And that's the only reason we brought the podcast back. For Mark."        

In this special episode, created by one of our student podcast fellows, NYU student Sajini Kodituwakku interviews Rosanne Kennedy, a clinical assistant professor at NYU's Gallatin School of Individualized Study. Sajini speaks with Rosanne about her unconventional career path and how it informed her research and teaching interests. Together, they ask questions about career paths, what career stability looks like, and how we can imagine a thoughtful and fulfilling approach to life and work.Rosanne Kennedy is a Clinical Assistant Professor at NYU's Gallatin School of Individualized Study, where she teaches and researches modern political theory, contemporary feminist theory, gender studies, continental philosophy, and Rousseau studies. Her dissertation, Rousseau and the Perversion of Gender, was awarded the Hannah Arendt prize for the Best Dissertation in Politics from the New School and the Best Dissertation in Women and Politics from the American Political Science Association. Her first book, Rousseau in Drag: Deconstructing Gender, was published by Palgrave in 2012. Her new book project, The Politics of Home: The New Domesticity and the Resurgence of Craft, tracks the affective and political dimensions of meanings of home, domesticity and craft and how such meanings are inflected by not only gender but sexuality, class, and race. She is especially interested in the leaky and porous boundaries between the intimate and the public, the longing for attachment alongside the desire to remain detached (refusing recognition and interpellation) and renewed interests in the haptic as a mode of thinking. At Gallatin, she teaches courses on democracy, the politics of home and the politics of work, and feminist political theory.  For a full transcript of this episode, please email career.communications@nyu.edu.

¿Qué ocurre con esa libertad radical y natural con la que todos nacemos? ¿Cómo la perdemos? ¿Qué papel juega la sociedad en todo eso? A esta pregunta y a muchas más, tratará de contestar PEPE LABAJO, profesor de filosofía con una larga y espléndida carrera, mientras expone y analiza las ideas de JEAN JACQUES ROUSSEAU, el pensador que supuso la semilla clave para posteriores movimientos sociales que surgieron en la Europa del siglo XIX, y que reivindicarán una efectiva IGUALDAD SOCIAL para todos los hombres. Porque este autor, aunque colaboró en La Enciclopedia, fue también el gran disidente de la Ilustración Francesa, pensaba que la sociedad tal y como se había organizado, había supuesto una degeneración y no un progreso para la el hombre, ya que existían desigualdades sociales fruto de la propiedad privada, y las leyes sólo protegían al rico y a su poder olvidando a los pobres, por tanto, no existía igualdad real. Era necesaria una nueva forma de organizarnos, un nuevo orden social que respetara la libertad que cada hombre poseía en estado natural, un nuevo CONTRATO SOCIAL cuya expresión y principio rector él llamaría la VOLUNTAD GENERAL, de ella emanaría la SOBERANÍA y constituiría el fundamento de todo PODER POLÍTICO. Pepe Labajo traslada el problema al mundo actual y nos explica los distintos tipos de libertad que hoy existen: "tal vez un preso no tenga libertad externa, pero puede que tenga más libertad interna que otras personas que vivan en el mundo, entre comillas, libre". Además, "es el Poder, afirmaba Rousseau, quien quiebra nuestra libertad interna, quien nos controla, quien nos determina, no a la hora de realizar acciones, sino de decidir qué acciones debemos realizar", por eso dice este gran pensador, que "la fuerza de las armas puede ser más despótica, pero la fuerza de las ideas, es más poderosa: cuando el Poder hace creer al pueblo que es libre, pero usa las ideas para controlarlo, el resultado es mucho más eficaz". De todo esto y de mucho más, hoy nuestro profesor nos hablará. Por otra parte continuamos relatando las Meditaciones de Marco Aurelio, en esta ocasión, recorriendo apartados del Libro II y del Libro VII. Escucharemos entre otros temás a qué se parece el arte de vivir o cuál es la labor de la filosofía. Igualmente seguiremoa saltando en el tiempo y leeremos el final del segundo apartado del primer capítulo del libro "Paisajes del Pensamiento" de Martha Nussbaum. Conoceremos qué rasgos forman parte de la identidad de las emociones, entendidas como una especie de juicios de valor. Respecto a la unión entre filosofía y melodía, hoy contextualizará a nuestro autor Ángel Corpa, interpretando una versión de la canción "Para la libertad", poema de Miguel Hernández popularizado por Joan Manuel Serrat.

Självförsörjande poet, upplysningstänkare, feminist. Hedvig Charlotta Nordenflycht (1718-1763) var en av det svenska 1700-talets viktigaste, mest unika och kända röster. Ändå är hon idag en ganska anonym gestalt för många. Hur kommer det sig? Vad utmärker hennes poesi och politiska tänkande? Varför gick hon till attack mot Rousseau? Vad är det mest radikala hon säger i dikten "Fruentimrets försvar?" Och hur ska vi läsa henne idag? Gäster i studion är litteraturvetarna Matilda Amundsen Bergström och Vera Sundin.

Amigo, si Locke te susurra al oído “sé prudente y defiendetu propiedad”, Rousseau te agarra del cuello de la camiseta y te grita “¡despierta, eres libre, coño, reclama tu soberanía!”. Leer El contrato social es como tomar una pastilla roja tamaño XXL: después de toda una vida en la caverna. Te cambia la forma de ver el mundo.

[PENSIERO E GENERAZIONI] φ Tra Settecento e Ottocento nasce un'idea nuova: la gioventù non è più una fase di passaggio, ma una forza vitale, una categoria storica, una possibilità di rivoluzione.

Un édito aiguisé d'Arthur Chevallier, chaque matin à 7h20. Un parti-pris assumé sur une question d'actualité. D'accord ou pas, vous ne resterez pas indifférent. La chronique qui permet de réfléchir et aide à forger son opinion chaque matin du lundi au vendredi sur RMC et RMC Story.

durée : 00:20:02 - Lectures du soir - " Aujourd'hui jour de Pâques fleuries il y a précisément cinquante ans de ma première connaissance avec Mme de Warens. Elle avait vingt-huit ans alors, étant née avec le siècle. Je n'en avais pas encore dix-sept... "

durée : 00:20:01 - Lectures du soir - " On veut être estimé des gens qu'on estime et tant que je pus juger avantageusement des hommes ou du moins de quelques hommes, les jugements qu'ils portaient de moi ne pouvaient m'être indifférents. "

durée : 00:20:03 - Lectures du soir - " Attiré par les riants objets qui m'entourent, je les considère, je les contemple, je les compare, j'apprends enfin à les classer, et me voilà tout d'un coup aussi botaniste qu'a besoin de l'être celui qui ne veut étudier la nature que pour trouver sans cesse de nouvelles raisons de l'aimer."

durée : 00:20:02 - Lectures du soir - "Je n'ai jamais cru que la liberté de l'homme consistât à faire ce qu'il veut, mais bien à ne jamais faire ce qu'il ne veut pas, et voilà celle que j'ai toujours réclamée, souvent conservée, et par qui j'ai été le plus en scandale à mes contemporains."

Joël Legendre nous explique pourquoi, le 11 novembre est la journée la plus spirituelle de l’année selon plusieurs experts! Ève Côté nous parle des cartables de règlements des airbnb, ça dégénère!

durée : 00:20:03 - Lectures du soir - "J'ai souvent débité bien des fables, mais j'ai très rarement menti. En suivant ces principes j'ai donné sur moi beaucoup de prise aux autres, mais je n'ai fait tort à qui que ce fût (…). C'est uniquement par là, ce me semble, que la vérité est une vertu."

This week on Crack the Book, we move from Rousseau's Social Contract to his Confessions, and let's just say my opinion hasn't improved. Before we get to the books, I share some strategies for getting through a book you don't like (because I needed to take my own advice this week). Then we move on to our two books for the week.In Confession's Book One, Rousseau recounts his early life with all the self-importance of a man convinced he's unlike anyone else who's ever lived. Between tragic beginnings, cruel masters, and an overshare about his youthful “discipline” preferences, I found little humility and even less personal growth. Rousseau insists his passions still rule him—no maturity, not even irony, just Rousseau being Rousseau.Thank goodness we had Voltaire's Candide, a complete tonal shift. This whirlwind satire—part travelogue, part absurdist adventure—follows Candide and his companions through war, earthquakes, El Dorado, and endless misfortune. Yet beneath the chaos lies a sharp moral insight: life's purpose isn't in grand philosophies or endless striving, but in the quiet wisdom to “cultivate our own garden.” The cinematic pacing (that Italo Calvino helpfully points out) is an interesting development, too.Preachy Rousseau and playful Voltaire were a great combination, and Candide was the clear winner of the two. Candide's brisk storytelling and biting humor still feel modern, even cinematic. One book made me roll my eyes; the other made me laugh out loud. Next week: Descartes, Spinoza, and Kant—wish me luck.LINKTed Gioia/The Honest Broker's 12-Month Immersive Humanities Course (paywalled!)My Amazon Book List (NOT an affiliate link)CONNECTThe complete list of Crack the Book Episodes: https://cheryldrury.substack.com/p/crack-the-book-start-here?r=u3t2rTo read more of my writing, visit my Substack - https://www.cheryldrury.substack.com.Follow me on Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/cldrury/ LISTENSpotify - https://open.spotify.com/show/5GpySInw1e8IqNQvXow7Lv?si=9ebd5508daa245bdApple Podcasts - https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/crack-the-book/id1749793321 Captivate - https://crackthebook.captivate.fm

durée : 00:20:00 - Lectures du soir - "Ces ravissements, ces extases que j'éprouvais quelquefois en me promenant ainsi seul, étaient des jouissances que je devais à mes persécuteurs : sans eux, je n'aurais jamais trouvé ni connu les trésors que je portais en moi-même."

durée : 00:19:57 - Lectures du soir - "Tout ce qui m'est extérieur m'est étranger désormais. Je n'ai plus en ce monde ni prochains, ni semblables, ni frères. Je suis sur la terre comme dans une planète étrangère, où je serais tombé de celle que j'habitais."

This week on Crack the Book marks a jarring shift in tone — and in time. After months steeped in medieval imagination, we start there with Niccolò Machiavelli and end firmly in the Enlightenment with Jean-Jacques Rousseau. Their works, The Prince (1513) and The Social Contract (1762), straddle that uneasy moment when faith and hierarchy gave way to “rational” thinking. And wow, does it sound different. I didn't realize how accustomed my ear had become to the older world until now.First up, The Prince. I had only known it practically caricatured as a manual for ruthless rulers. Instead, I found that Machiavelli offers sharp, almost Aristotelian observations on how power works. Writing amid the chaos of Renaissance Italy — with popes, princes, and mercenaries vying for control — he tries to help leaders (well, Lorenzo di Medici) survive reality, not reinvent it. His advice is startlingly pragmatic: if you must be cruel, do it swiftly; keep the people's goodwill by leaving their money and families alone; and above all, don't be hated. Virtue matters less than the appearance of virtue — but even so, he respects human nature enough to work with it rather than against it. For someone with such a bad reputation, he's refreshingly honest.Before we move to Rousseau, I spend some time reviewing the Enlightenment: what it was, when it was, and how it changed thinking and therefore every other thing in the world! I think it's a necessary bridge between these two time periods and books.On to Rousseau. Two centuries and one worldview later, The Social Contract begins not with observation but with imagination: “Man is born free, and everywhere he is in chains.” Rousseau builds an elaborate theory of how people ought to behave, then blames reality when they don't. His faith in reason and “natural goodness” feels detached from the messiness of human life that Machiavelli understood so well. And by the time he turns his ire on the Church in his final pages, the tone borders on bitter — foreshadowing the excesses of the French Revolution.After this week, I find myself mourning the grounded wisdom of the Middle Ages. Machiavelli may be cynical, but at least he's real. Rousseau feels like a man disappointed that humanity refuses to fit his theory.LINKTed Gioia/The Honest Broker's 12-Month Immersive Humanities Course (paywalled!)My Amazon Book List (NOT an affiliate link)CONNECTThe complete list of Crack the Book Episodes: https://cheryldrury.substack.com/p/crack-the-book-start-here?r=u3t2rTo read more of my writing, visit my Substack - https://www.cheryldrury.substack.com.Follow me on Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/cldrury/ LISTENSpotify - https://open.spotify.com/show/5GpySInw1e8IqNQvXow7Lv?si=9ebd5508daa245bdApple Podcasts - https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/crack-the-book/id1749793321 Captivate -

I've created a FREE guide with 7 cultural stories from France, designed to help you make real progress in French —not through boring drills, but through powerful, inspiring stories that immerse you in French culture.

Today we talk about the work of the philosopher Charles Taylor. First, we trace the historical origins of how he views the modern self. From the Greeks to the Reformation. From Descartes to Rousseau. The modern self to him is something "irreconcilably multileveled". Then we talk about our modern focus on authenticity as a moral ideal and why Taylor thinks many people misunderstand what it requires.

Jean-Jacques Rousseau é uma figura complexa e, ao mesmo tempo, profundamente influente na história do pensamento ocidental. Sua proposta de reorganizar a sociedade humana com base na liberdade e na “vontade geral” impactou não apenas as revoluções políticas modernas, mas também influenciou, de maneira indireta, visões sobre a comunidade, a moralidade e a organização religiosa. Ao propor que o ser humano é bom por natureza e que a sociedade o corrompe, Rousseau introduz uma antropologia otimista que desafia a doutrina cristã da queda e a necessidade da graça redentora. Sua “vontade geral” — uma forma idealizada de soberania popular — promete a emancipação total do indivíduo pela coletividade, mas o faz à custa da singularidade da consciência, da transcendência divina e da autoridade espiritual. Neste episódio, exploramos as implicações dessa visão para a eclesiologia adventista e para o modelo organizacional da IASD. O objetivo é, simultaneamente, aprender com os alertas de Rousseau sobre participação e alienação, e criticar as armadilhas filosóficas de um pensamento que pode ameaçar as bases da ordem espiritual e eclesiástica.

C dans l'air l'invité du 6 octobre 2025 avec Dominique Rousseau, constitutionnaliste, professeur à l'université Paris 1 Panthéon-Sorbonne.Déflagration politique ce matin : quelques heures à peine après avoir formé son gouvernement, Sébastien Lecornu a remis lundi sa démission, fragilisé de l'intérieur par la fronde des Républicains de Bruno Retailleau, une décision qui place Emmanuel Macron au pied du mur. Nomination d'un nouveau Premier ministre ? Dissolution de l'Assemblée ?Troisième Premier ministre désigné en un an depuis la dissolution de juin 2024, Sébastien Lecornu, nommé le 9 septembre et qui devait tenir son premier Conseil des ministres lundi, s'est rendu aux premières heures de la matinée à l'Élysée pour remettre sa démission au président, qui l'a acceptée. "Les conditions n'étaient plus remplies" pour rester, a-t-il déclaré un peu plus tard depuis Matignon, regrettant "les appétits partisans" ayant conduit à sa démission. Il a regretté que son offre de renoncer à l'article 49.3 de la Constitution pour redonner la main au Parlement n'avait "pas permis" d'évacuer la menace d'une censure agitée par la gauche et le Rassemblement national.Il s'agit du gouvernement le plus bref de la Ve République, à peine plus d'une douzaine d'heures. Sa chute plonge la France dans une crise politique sans précédent depuis des décennies.Dominique Rousseau, constitutionnaliste, professeur à l'université Paris 1 Panthéon-Sorbonne, est notre invité. Il analysera avec nous la situation politique inédite dans laquelle nous sommes. Il nous dira aussi quelles sont désormais les options du président de la République. Dissoudre une Assemblée figée en trois blocs ? Faire appel à un Premier ministre de gauche ? Faire appel à une personne non marquée à la tête d'un gouvernement technique ? Démissionner ? Et en cas de dissolution, dans quel délai doivent être organisée des élections législatives ?

Send us a textWhat does it take to race at a world-class level when running itself isn't an option? We sit with Meikael Beaudoin-Rousseau to trace a brutal knee injury—down to bone—and the long, confusing road back: tendon thickening, scar pain that burns like hot iron, false starts, and a fitness base built on a handbike, arms-only swims, and an elliptical. Meika is candid about uncertainty and the daily choice to believe that today could be the first day of the comeback. Then we go deep on what that mindset looks like on the start line, from a med-tent finish at Pikes Peak to a podium at the Rut VK, and how trail racing rewards whole-body fitness even when mileage is scarce.We widen the lens to the life that makes the athlete. Meika's a tri-citizen (United States, France, Canada) who grew up in California splitting time between ocean and Sierra, now based in Boulder's running community. He talks gardening, ocean kayak fishing with whales and dolphins, and the grounding joy of catching and cooking his own food. We cover Stanford, discovering pro trail running through Megan and David Roche, and why sub-ultra distances still feel like home while 50K races like OCC/CCC pull him toward longer adventures that feel like missions.The future of the sport takes center stage: how sub-ultra is booming, why FKTs and personal mountain projects should live alongside race series, and the role of storytelling in building real fandom. Meika shares honest takes on sponsorship trends, Brooks' investment in sub-ultra, anti-doping beyond race-day tests, world championships versus UTMB, and the calendar coordination needed for true head-to-heads. Through it all, he stays focused on longevity and authenticity—keeping the community feel while growing prize money, media, and opportunity.If this conversation fires you up, tap follow, share it with a friend who needs a spark, and leave a quick rating and review to help more trail fans find the show. Then tell us: what should trail running fix first as it grows?Follow Meikael on IG - @mountain_man_meikFollow James on IG - @jameslaurielloFollow the Steep Stuff Podcast on IG - @steepstuff_podUse code steepstuffpod for 25% off your cart at UltimateDirection.com!

Durant le siècle des Lumières, un mouvement sans précédent s'est développé lorsque des philosophes comme Rousseau, Voltaire, Locke, Montesquieu ou Diderot ont combattu l'obscurantisme et l'ignorance. « Les lumières, c'est plus d'un siècle de débats, de discussions », affirme le philosophe Alexandre Dupeyrix.

On Thursday's Mark Levin Show, lower federal courts are ignoring Supreme Court rulings, with judges defying the Constitution and law on immigration. In LA, a judge rules that ICE roundups are racist, alleging indiscriminate arrests of brown-skinned people at Home Depots, car washes, farms, etc., due to ethnicity and a 3,000-daily quota. In addition, in New Hampshire, a judge upholds birthright citizenship via national injunction, citing long-standing practice over constitutional analysis. The media ignore this, while actions persist. The judges have changed, not the Constitution. Also, President Trump has made enormous progress domestically and internationally, but institutions are being turned against Americans. Democrats will inevitably win elections and use the permanent government, courts, and administrative state to try to permanently embed their ideology, making it irreversible. Zohran Mamdani's Stalinist Islamist fusion of ideologies has overtaken parts of Europe and is now infiltrating the U.S., funded by entities like Qatar, Hamas, Iran, and Communist China. Later, socialism is an economic ideology from Marxism, which is a broader life ideology encompassing socialism but extending to cultural, social, and political transformation. The modern activists and professors are unoriginal Karl Marx wannabes who regurgitate ideas from Marx, Hegel, and Rousseau. Thery reject individual liberty and free will as divisive and weak, favoring instead class unity and collective power. There is a comprehensive war on civil society, culture, and America's foundations—targeting family, economy, and liberty—rooted in deadly, anti-human Marxist principles that promote genocide and centralized power.  Afterward, there is a vile and destructive element within the Republican Party. Rep Marjorie Taylor Greene is undermining Trump and introducing amendments removing $500 million in military aid to Israel from the National Defense Authorization Act.  Finally, Mahmoud Khalil filed a $20 million claim against the Trump administration. Only in America does a pro Hamas protestor like this turnaround and bring a lawsuit when he should never have been here in the first place. David Schoen calls in to explain that Khalil is 100% deportable under U.S. Code sections 1227 and 1182 for endorsing and supporting Hamas. Learn more about your ad choices.
