This lecture discusses key ideas from the 20th century philosophical short story writer, essayist, and poet Jorge Luis Borges's story "The Writing Of The God" which can be found in Collected Fictions. 

It centers on a priest Tzinacán, previously serving at the pyramid of Qaholom, now imprisoned for the rest of his life in a dark cell. There is a jaguar on the other side. Inspired by a legend about the god, he attempts to discern what the writing of the god would be, and eventually deciphers it

Jorge Luis Borges - The Writing Of The God - Sadler's Lectures

This lecture discusses key ideas from the 20th century philosophical short story writer, essayist, and poet Jorge Luis Borges's story "The Theologians" which can be found in Collected Fictions. 

It centers on a (perhaps one-way) rivalry between two Christian theologians, Aurelian and John of Pannonia, in a time when the Christian church is struggling with a number of heresies, some opposed to each other. John and Aurelian both produce refutations of one heresy, and then when Aurelian uses a passage from John's earlier refutation in a new refutation of a different heresy, John is condemned as a heretic.  In the end, Borges suggests, there might not be any real difference between the two men

Jorge Luis Borges - The Theologians - Sadler's Lectures

This lecture discusses key ideas from the 20th century philosophical short story writer, essayist, and poet Jorge Luis Borges's story "Death And The Compass" which can be found in Collected Fictions. 

It takes the form of a detective tale, where the legendary, highly intelligent detective, Eric Lönnrot, does not figure out all of the aspects of the pattern of crimes, including the fact that he is the intended victim of the fourth crime. This is revealed to him by the criminal Red Scarlach, who has set up the entire sequence of crimes to entice Lönnrot to his death, creating a labyrinth in which he would be drawn

Jorge Luis Borges - Death and the Compass - Sadler's Lectures

This lecture discusses key ideas from the 20th century philosophical short story writer, essayist, and poet Jorge Luis Borges's story "Deutsches Requiem" which can be found in Collected Fictions. 

The story is narrated in the voice of an unrepentant Nazi about to be executed for war crimes, Otto Dietrich zur Linde. He claims to be inspired in his life and in his activity within the Nazi party by great people in philosophy, literature, and music, and argues that we are now entering a new age of violence, which Nazi Germany helped to steer the world towards, even though it has to be sacrificed in the process

Jorge Luis Borges - Deutsches Requiem - Sadler's Lectures

This lecture discusses key ideas from the 20th century philosophical short story writer, essayist, and poet Jorge Luis Borges's story "The Shape Of The Sword" which can be found in Collected Fictions. 

Borges listens to a story told by a former Irish revolutionary, marked by a scar across his face. the narrative centers on a physically cowardly and intellectually arrogant comrade, John Vincent Moon, who the narrator will save and protect and then be betrayed by to the British. It will turn out that the narrator himself is that very person Moon, and that he has told the story in that manner to get a full hearing. He then demands that Borges despise him.

Démonstration du Spectacle L'Homme brûlé ou Giacometti, l’espoir de réussir à l’Hôtel d'Astier (Forcalquier)

- Version entière bientôt disponible -

L’HOMME BRÛLÉ interprété par Bernard Fernando Bellacicco est un
spectacle qui parle en premier lieu du regard de Giacometti sur le genre humain.
C’est une approche sur la perception du réel à travers le regard d’un homme qui
brûle du désir de transcrire ce qu’il voit, au plus proche de la profondeur des êtres.
Recherche obsessionnelle sur la précarité de notre condition mais aussi sur la
force d’une marche vue comme une chute que l’on récupère. « Je ne sais ce que
je vois qu’en travaillant ». C’est aussi une création musicale du compositeur
Sunir, qui vient dialoguer avec le texte, le ponctuer, le souligner sans jamais
l’illustrer.

B.F.BELLACCICO SUNIR - L'Homme brûlé, MUSÉE (demo)

Extrait de "la chute des anges" des poèmes bulgares de Jean Giono.

Philippe Fréchet, lecture
Sunir, composition, musique électronique, enregistrement studio

Fin 1944, début 1945, Jean Giono est emprisonné à Saint-Vincent-des-Forts
(Basses-Alpes) pendant près de cinq mois. C'est là qu'il écrit deux poèmes
(« La chute des anges » et « Un déluge ») qu'Antoine Rico, imprimeur à
Manosque, publiera en mars 1969 (un an et demi avant la mort de
l'écrivain), avec « Le cœur cerf » (écrit en 1947). Cette édition ne comporte
pas le nom de l'auteur mais seulement la mention (fantaisiste, mais sans
aucun doute en accord avec l'auteur — qui n'est bien sûr jamais allé en
Bulgarie et ne parlait pas un traître mot de bulgare) : « traduit du bulgare ».
