ASPETTANDO LA TERZA FASE Riflessioni Quotidiane Dalla Seconda
ASPETTANDO LA TERZA FASE Riflessioni quotidiane dalla seconda 16Aprile Una sedia per Ursula A casa mia avevo tre sedie: una per la solitudine, due per l’amicizia, tre per la società. Henry David Thoreau … Non ho mai creduto al silenzio degli oggetti. E’ tutta una questione di orecchio. Accostati a una sedia e sentirai quante cose ha da dire. Fabrizio Caramagna … La sedia è il Potere. Una sedia è indifferente alle qualità etiche e umane di chi la occupa. A lei non importa che vinca il migliore. Una sedia è una sedia. Clelia Mazzanti … Si siede chi ha la sedia. Chi non ce l’ha? Chi non ce l’ha è costretto a stare in piedi. Se ne deduce che inevitabilmente la sedia opera nell’umanità una piccola divisione. Ma chi ha la sedia è gentile e la cede a chi è in piedi? No! Chi ha la sedia se la tiene e ci sta comodamente seduto. Ma allora cosa ci rappresenta il “Prego s’accomodi”? Il “Prego s’accomodi” è un modo di dire, signorile e democratico, che fa notare le differenze ma con gentilezza. Meglio sarebbe sostituirlo con “Prego stia pure in piedi”, ugualmente gentile però più vero! Giorgio Gaber … Il coraggio è quello che ci vuole per alzarsi e parlare; il coraggio è anche quello che ci vuole per sedersi ed ascoltare. Sir Winston Churchill 15Aprile Riapriamo i teatri Il teatro non è altro che il disperato sforzo dell’uomo di dare un senso alla vita. Eduardo De Filippo … Benvenuti a teatro. Dove tutto è finto ma niente è falso. -

Doctoral Dissertations. 1161. https://opencommons.uconn.edu/dissertations/1161 Notions of Self and Nation in French Author-Aviators of World War II: From Myth to Ambivalence Christopher Steven Kean, PhD University of Connecticut, 2016 The traditional image of wartime aviators in French culture is an idealized, mythical notion that is inextricably linked with an equally idealized and mythical notion of nationhood. The literary works of three French author-aviators from World War II – Antoine de Saint- Exupéry, Jules Roy, and Romain Gary – reveal an image of the aviator and the writer that operates in a zone between reality and imagination. The purpose of this study is to delineate the elements that make up what I propose is a more complex and even ambivalent image of both individual and nation. Through these three works – Pilote de guerre (Flight to Arras), La Vallée heureuse (The Happy Valley), and La Promesse de l’aube (Promise at Dawn) – this dissertation proposes to uncover not only the figures of individual narratives, but also the figures of “a certain idea of France” during a critical period of that country’s history. -

Oxford: Voltaire Foundation, 2002. xv + 180 pp. Bibliography and index. £39.00 U.K.; $67.00 U.S. (pb). ISBN 0-7294- 0801-9. Review by Richard Whatmore, University of Sussex. Sébastien-Roch Nicolas Chamfort’s plays, poetry, and essays brought him to literary prominence between 1764 and 1788. During this period, he frequented philosophe salons, saw his work favourably received by the court, and gained pensions and patronage from, among others, the prince de Condé, Louis de Vaudreuil, and Mme Elizabeth. In 1789 Chamfort was rare among the ‘Forty Immortals’ of the Académie française in uncritically embracing the revolutionary cause. A founder of the ‘Société de 1789’, he became a journalist and writer, contributing, for example, to the Feuille villageoise, one of the leading publications seeking a reformation of manners. Since the early 1780s, Chamfort had been a friend and associate of Gabriel-Honoré Riqueti de Mirabeau. Just prior to Mirabeau’s death in April 1791 he was working on a speech for the great orator, the subject of which was the future of the various philosophic academies. After the fall of the monarchy he was appointed, with Jean-Louis Carra, director of the Bibliothèque nationale. During this period he was a friend to Roland’s ministry established in August 1792, and was involved in propagandist writing encouraging Austrian deserters to join the Revolution. Subsequently, he suffered house arrest and repeated interrogation during the Terror. -

Pulling together the many gendered facets of masonry, Allen draws from periodicals, memoirs, and copious archival material to account for the rise of women within the masonic brotherhood in the context of rapid historical change. Thanks to women’s social networks and their attendant social capital, masonry came to play a leading role in French civil society and the rethinking of gender relations in the public sphere. “James Smith Allen presents readers with an engaging, kaleidoscopic account of the uphill and contentious struggle to include select women as full participants in the arcane brotherhood of French freemasonry.”—Karen Offen, author of Debating the Woman Question in the French Third Republic, 1870–1920 “A Civil Society is important because it connects the activism and writing of major figures in French women’s history with masonic networks and impulses. -
Jean-Jacques Rousseau and the Paradoxes of Celebrity
REP103_03 6/17/08 11:49 AM Page 53 ANTOINE LILTI The Writing of Paranoia: Jean-Jacques Rousseau and the Paradoxes of Celebrity On Saturday, February 24, 1776, Jean-Jacques Rousseau visited the cathedral of Notre Dame carrying a manuscript. This manuscript, on which he had been working for four years, was entitled Rousseau, Judge of Jean-Jacques; it was meant as a denunciation of a plot against Jean-Jacques and a defense of his innocence. Not knowing to whom he should give the manuscript, as he suspected his closest friends of belonging to the conspir- acy, Rousseau preferred to confide his text to “Providence.” And so he de- cided to leave the manuscript on the great altar of Notre Dame, in the hope that it would be found and given to the king. God and the king: nothing less was needed to break the circle of conspiracy and do justice to Jean-Jacques. But a terrible surprise was waiting for him. As he approached the altar, he found that the chancel was separated from the nave by a grate that he had never before noticed, and that blocked his way. It was a dreadful shock: “I was overcome by a dizziness like a man with apoplexy, and this dizziness was followed by an upheaval of my whole being” wrote Rousseau in a text he composed afterwards, and added to the manuscript as an appendix.1 “All the more struck by the unforeseen obstacle because I hadn’t told anyone of my project, I believed in my initial transport that I was seeing Heaven itself collaborate in the iniquitous work of men.” And this revelation tore from him a “murmur of indignation.” Did God himself belong to the plot? Is it possible to imagine a more striking image of paranoia? It is worth noting that this famous episode, after all, is only known to us because Rousseau himself tells the story, in a text in which the denunciation of the plot takes on such incredible dimensions, ap- proaching delirium, that the suspicion of madness weighs on every page. -
The Enlightenment of Jean-Baptiste-Louis Gresset, Léger-Marie Deschamps, and Simon-Nicolas-Henri Linguet
‘TOUCHSTONES OF TRUTH’: THE ENLIGHTENMENT OF JEAN-BAPTISTE-LOUIS GRESSET, LÉGER-MARIE DESCHAMPS, AND SIMON-NICOLAS-HENRI LINGUET DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Mircea Alexandru Platon, M.A. Graduate Program in History The Ohio State University 2012 Dissertation Committee: Dr. Dale K. Van Kley, Adviser Dr. Alice Conklin, Adviser Dr. Nicholas Breyfogle Copyright Mircea Alexandru Platon 2012 ABSTRACT My dissertation, “ ‘Touchstones of Truth’: The Enlightenment of J.-B.-L. Gresset, L.-M. Deschamps, and S.-N.-H. Linguet,” focuses on three key but little studied opponents of the philosophes. I argue that the writer Jean-Baptiste-Louis Gresset (1709- 1777), the philosopher Léger-Marie Deschamps (1716-1774), and the lawyer and political theorist Simon-Nicolas-Henri Linguet (1736-1794) opposed the philosophes in the name of a set of universally valid principles against what they took to be the philosophes' superficial, self-serving, and haphazard politicization of language, philosophy and the social sciences. These three intellectuals warned that such politicization fostered economic, political, and intellectual inequality as well as cultural alienation, thereby undermining the Enlightenment’s own vision of a world of self-emancipated human beings and pushing France in the direction of a violent revolution. Gresset supported a “civic republican” political economy of virtue, and warned about the dangers of the consumer culture fostered by the philosophes. The roots of his cultural criticism lay in moral and political concerns that found expression in a patriotic discourse stressing the importance of social “harmony” and the common good while rejecting any temptation to belong to a “party.” In this spirit, Gresset defended the “ancient constitution” against idle monks, royal or ministerial despotism, parlementarian rebellion, and the philosophes. -

Lester F. Ward: Applied Sociology (1906)
Lester F. Ward: Applied Sociology (1906) [i] APPLIED SOCIOLOGY A TREATISE ON THE CONSCIOUS IMPROVEMENT OF SOCIETY BY SOCIETY BY LESTER F. WARD L’application est la pierre de touche de Toute doctrine. – ADOLPHE COSTE Seite 2 von 408 Lester F. Ward: Applied Sociology (1906) [ii] COPYRIGHT, 1906 BY LESTER F. WARD ________ ALL RIGHTS RESERVED GINN & COMPANY Boston – New York – Chicago – London 1906 Seite 3 von 408 Lester F. Ward: Applied Sociology (1906) [iii] PREFACE This work and its predecessor, Pure Sociology, constitute together a system of sociology, and these, with Dynamic Sociology, The Psychic Factors of Civilization, and the Outlines of Sociology, make up a more comprehensive system of social philosophy. Should any reader acquaint himself with the whole, he will find it not only consistent with itself, but progressive in the sense that each successive volume carries the subject a step farther with a minimum of repetition or duplicate treatment. The central thought is that of a true science of society, capable, in the measure that it approaches completeness, of being turned to the profit of mankind. If there is one respect in which it differs more than in others from rival systems of philosophy it is in its practical character of never losing sight of the end or purpose, nor of the possibilities of conscious effort. It is a reaction against the philosophy of despair that has come to dominate even the most enlightened scientific thought. It aims to point out a remedy for the general paralysis that is creeping over the world, and which a too narrow conception of the law of cosmic evolution serves rather to increase than to diminish.
