Join Olivia "Liv" Robert and Claudia Morris in their discussion of nationalism and how it affects universalism and particularism and individualism and collectivism, as discussed in Boris Pahor's works. These concepts of universalism and particularism can be applied to universal declaration of human rights and intersectionality, and the individual and the collective can be applied to the COVID-19 pandemic.
In this episode, Ronke and Eleanor delve into the proposed binaries of History versus histories and center versus periphery. They discuss the weaponization of language and the plight of minority artists and singer-songwriters connecting their interests to the works of Pahor.
Listen along as we read through and analyze one of Pahor's short stories titled "Flowers for a Leper".
