Still thinking about the fact the show Armand is canonically friends with Jean Paul Satre.

Hello all! It’s Saturday, which means I’m back to Satre posting!

I discovered recently that he is actually on the Liver of Piacenza! That’s it, just a name, but I do find it fascinating that such a poorly-attested ais is on one of the major pieces of Etruscan writing we have, not a singular votive stone.

On Uni’s Wikipedia, her father is listed as Satre, and I do have to assume that this is because of Juno being the daughter of Saturn, and Hera being the daughter of Kronos. Though it is Wikipedia, and I do have to look more into this! It’s also intriguing because besides the equivalences, there doesn’t appear to be any reason for this connection! And no Rhea/Ops equivalent, as far as I can tell. (Again, I do have to do more research!)

But I admit, in my personal worship, I fully accept Uni as the daughter of Satre - perhaps Tins as well! I’ll need to ponder on that a bit longer.

Śin Satre!

(Apologies if this is a bit over the place, it’s largely just me typing out Satre ramblings, lol.)

when people say i love you

is it that they love the idea of me

theyve alredy constructed in their head?

designed by their desire, timing and personal narrative

being understood doesn’t require fantasy or attention

because you can be loved - by performance

you can offer versions of yourself shaped by what you think other person wants you to be

but to be understood. you have to be visible

and visibility when its real, its never fully under your control.

to be loved is to be understood.

His [Foucault's] vision of European culture as the institutionalised form of oppressive power is taught everywhere as gospel, to students who have neither the culture nor the religion to resist it. Only in France is he widely regarded as a fraud.

- Roger Scruton on Michel Foucault

During student protests in Paris in 1968, Roger Scruton, a francophile, watched students overturn cars to erect barricades and tear up cobblestones to throw at police. It was at that moment he realised he was a conservative.

For Scruton, he didn’t think much of Jean Paul Satre, the father of existentialism, who cobbled together the essence of his philosophy from Alexandre Kojève's reading of Hegel in his famous seminar at the Ecole Pratique des Hautes Etudes in the 1930s. His listeners included Bataille, Aron, Merleau-Ponty, Lacan and Simone de Beauvoir. Each of them drew something different from him. For Sartre, the idea of the self-created individual with radical freedom. Expressed very early on in La nausée, this freedom is a source of anguish for a consciousness which not only considers that the surrounding world has no meaning other than that which it can possibly confer on it, but which experiences itself as a kind of nothingness.

How, starting from such a philosophy, does Sartre arrive at the idea of commitment to revolution and socialism? It is a mystery. Scruton wrote, "According to the metaphysics enunciated in Being and Nothingness, the correct answer to the question "To what shall I commit myself?" should be: What does it matter, as long as you can want it as a law for yourself." "But this is not the answer offered by Sartre, whose commitment is to an ideal that is at odds with his own philosophy.”

With his theory of episteme, Foucault gives us a new version of the Marxist concept of ideology.

Despite what some might think, Scruton wasn’t entirely dismissive of Foucault whose thought was more subtle and interesting than Sartre’s. Scruton confesses a certain tenderness for Michel Foucault's style, for his flamboyant imagination. But Scruton does not see his archaeology of knowledge as a great innovation. According to a habit shared by many French left-wing intellectuals, like Sartre himself, Foucault intended to tear away the veils behind which the relations of domination are hidden, to unmask the deceptions of others. With Sartre, it was in the name of a vague nostalgia for personal authenticity. Foucault, on the other hand, looked for the secret structures of power behind all institutions - and even at work in language.

But the historical horizon on which Foucault projected this quest, which postulated a rupture between the "classical age" of the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries and the bourgeois world that would follow the French Revolution, showed that, despite his claims, Foucault had remained a prisoner of Marxism. Moreover, as Scruton would write, “his theory of episteme is a rehash of the Marxist theory of ideology. Moreover, he considers power only from the perspective of domination. “

But the main criticism that Scruton finds fault with Foucault is the one found in the post-enlightenment thinkers: relativism. If each era generates the discursive formations that correspond to its system of power, including the sciences, then truth does not exist. Everything is discourse...
