Frédéric Lenoir. Philosopher, writer, specialist in religions, outstanding communicator, Frédéric Lenoir has more than one pen in his inkwell. Well known to the public, he takes a fresh look at religions and builds bridges between different traditions. Focusing on Christianity, his conference will focus on the subversive force of the Gospel. We must rediscover these ancient texts with him. Frédéric Lenoir began his career as literary director at Fayard in 1986. He then became a columnist (L'Express, Psychologies Magazine) before taking over the management of Le Monde des Religions from 2004 to 2013. He relaunched this specialist magazine and made it a mainstream publication. Since 2009, he has hosted the show Les racines du Ciel, with Leili Anvar. Novels, essays, comics, stories, thrillers, screenplays, interviews, Frédéric Lenoir has published around forty works, often in collaboration. Five months after the dazzling release of Dan Brown's bestseller, he published a counter-expertise: Da Vinci Code, l'enquête, with the journalist M.-F. Etchegoin. A tour de force. His essays (Socrates, Jesus, Buddha; The Healing of the World), his novels (L'oracle delle Luna; The Promise of the Angel) have been translated into about twenty languages and have sold several hundred thousand copies. Deeply committed to environmental causes, Frédéric Lenoir co-founded the association "Environnement sans frontières". Tireless, a jack of all trades, Frédéric Lenoir never ceases to amaze. His conference on February 25 addresses a theme that is dear to him: rediscovering the subversive force of the Gospel, beyond the doctrinal and historical burdens of the Christian religion.
