Macerie su Macerie – PODCAST 11/05/26 – Il valore del silenzio e il coraggio del vero: Weil e Foucault

https://radioblackout.org/podcast/macerie-su-macerie-podcast-11-05-26-il-valore-del-silenzio-e-il-coraggio-del-vero-weil-e-foucault/

I had my mental health care plan review today, and got into a really good chat with my GP about chronic suicidality and the medical industry's responses to mental health as a whole.. and how it leans into punitivity and carceral thinking.

Now I'm struggling with the temptation to gift him some Foucault to read, like HERE IS YOUR HOMEWORK, MY GUY!

..if you want to be my GP you're going to have to be up in your critical theory 😆

Foucault’s work on power matters now more than ever in this era of #interregnum, polycrisis, concentration of political power, and erosion of democracy and civil rights.

"Power is all the more cunning because its basic forms can change in response to our efforts to free ourselves from its grip"

Adnkronos - Cultura: Libri: leggere e tradurre Il Nome della rosa a Mosca, Eco e la fessura nel monolito

(Adnkronos) - Elena Kostioukovitch racconta la vicenda editoriale in Urss del primo romanzo di Umberto Eco che prese in mano per la prima volta nella stanza segreta della Biblioteca statale di letterature straniere di Mosca già nel 1981. Quando il testo sette anni dopo fu finalmente pubblicato in Urss, dove era stato prima censurato, la materia europea che trattava amplificò l'anelito di cambiamento. Mentre mentre più tardi in Russia il Pendolo di Foucault entrò in risonanza, in senso opposto a quanto inteso dall'autore, con i primi germi allora sottotraccia dell'oltranzismo. Fra i due primi romanzi di Eco e la loro storia russa, la speranza dell’apertura.

Books: to read and translate The Name of the Rose in Moscow, Eco and the crack in the monolith

(Adnkronos) - Elena Kostioukovitch recounts the editorial story of the first novel by Umberto Eco, which she took up for the first time in the secret room of the State Library of Foreign Literature in Moscow in 1981. When the text, seven years later, was finally published in Urss, where it had previously been censored, the European subject matter it dealt with amplified the yearning for change. While later in Russia, the Pendulum of Foucault resonated, in the opposite direction from that intended by the author, with the first germs then beneath the surface of ultra-conservatism. Between the two of Eco’s first novels and their Russian story, there was the hope of openness.
