Homecoming: Roger Scruton

Jan 9, 20001h 33m10.0

Reactionary, contrary, controversial: all labels that have been stuck on the British philosopher Roger Scruton over the years.

An important theme in his work is the alienation of contemporary man from the true values of life.

The Code of Pasternak: George Steiner

Jan 23, 20001h 20m10.0

Interview with George Steiner, British literary critic and writer (in his home in Cambridge, Great Britain). Steiner talks about beauty, solace, fear, wonder, memory, his photographic memory and the extinction of collective memory: the fact that readers no longer recognize references in literature. In this context, Steiner reads a fragment from Ernest Hemingway's 'Fiesta: The sun also rises'. He also talks about Chinese wisdom following the excavation and reburial of terracotta statues from graves in Szetsjwan in China, Pasternak's code, the work of Sören Kierkegaard and Martin Heidegger, the innumerability/beauty of detail, the painting 'The Reading Philosopher' by Jean-Baptiste Siméon Chardin, falling in love, love and friendship, his passion for art, literature, music, philosophy, love for animals, humanity, self-knowledge, Franz Schubert, the dark side of life and atrocities such as those committed during the Second World War.

The End of the Thirteenth: Vladimir Ashkenazy

Thor, Newton, Einstein: Steven Weinberg

Feb 6, 20001h 14m10.0

Interview with Steven Weinberg, American theoretical physicist (in his office at the University of Texas in Austin, Texas). Weinberg talks about the demythologization of the world and the consolation for this loss that can be found in the beauty of physical theories. He compares the beauty of the laws of physics (including Albert Einstein's theory of relativity) with perfection in artistic expressions such as the music of Johann Sebastian Bach. Attention is also paid to symmetrical principles, the insoluble question "why?" and the current trend to make something magical out of science. Weinberg explains why he disapproves of this trend. Weinberg's opinion that religion is a myth that will disappear is also discussed.

Guilt: Martha Nussbaum

Interview with Martha Nussbaum (in her Chicago apartment, located on Lake Michigan, near Harold Washington Park).

You Are There and You Are Not: Karel Appel

In addition, at Kayzer's request, he reads one of his poems about Amsterdam (from his poetry collection 'Ode aan het rood').
