About this listen

In their fifth episode, Ethan and Gabriel take a close look at Byung-Chul Han’s 2019 book The Disappearance of Rituals: A Topology of the Present. They survey the communion of pedagogy (Simone Weil), writing methodology, Protestantism and Christian hermeneutics, worship & prayer (Kierkegaard), communication vs. community, politeness, the relationship between work and rest (Hegel & Kojève), endless conjunction vs. lingering & site (Deleuze), psychology, sovereign suicide (Schroeter & Foucault), pornography, and more.

The full 3 hour and 45 minute episode is available on Patreon for a small monthly fee. Please consider subscribing to help us continue producing high quality work. https://www.patreon.com/MarginforThought
