The Peasant of the Garonne and the Pharaoh Within
Appearing on the Genealogies of Modernity website, James investigates Jacques Maritain's book, The Peasant of Garonne, written in the 1960s, and the contemporary philosopher Byung-Chul Han's appraisal of contemporary society. Both see the danger secularisation places on a person's, and by extension the Churches', spiritual life.
