How are theories born? How do they circulate in society? Historians, sociologists, anthropologists and philosophers help Laura Raim to trace the genealogy of ideas. What if we didn't grieve? In this episode, Laura looks at grieving, the relationship we have with our dead. To do this, she invited Belgian philosopher Vinciane Despret, who conducted a real investigation into the relationships that the living continue to have with those who are no longer here in her book, Au Bonheur des morts, récit de ceux qui reste. Together, they question the injunction to grieve: when did it appear? Vinciane Despret briefly looks back at the history of grieving. Recently, the pandemic has made it impossible to take care of our dead. To what extent has this disrupted the grieving process? “When there is an absence of rituals, when there is an absence of care given to the dead that we feel is part of the obligation of the living towards them, in many cultures, it creates ghosts,” explains Vinciane Despret. Also with psychoanalyst Laurie Laufer.
