A Social and Intellectual History

Susan Mann
Essential reading for an under-

demonstrates that these dreams,
fashioned by elites in response to
the recurring question of how to
be French in North America, pro-
posed an ever-elusive unanimity.

Work
Lars Svendsen
Work is one of the most univer-
sal features of human life. Often
associated with tedium and bore-
dom, it conflicts with the things
we would otherwise love to do.
Thinking of work primarily as a
burden - an activity we would
rather be without - goes back at
least as far as ancient Greece,
whose philosophers generally
regarded work as a terrible curse.

Hunger

While our hungers seem the most

unique character of human con-
sciousness.

PHILOSOPHY
Fame
Mark Rowlands
Mark Rowlands argues that our
obsession with fame has trans-
formed it: no longer associated
with excellence or achievement
in a field of endeavour, it is now
unconnected to any discernible
distinction, allowing a person
to be famous simply for being
famous.
