Words Wide Night by Carol Ann Duffy

'The Touch,' written By Anne Sexton, read By RM.

Charles Briggs talks to psychoanalyst Maureen Katz about the anthropology of mourning. They discuss a letter titled “Dear Dr. Freud” that Professor Briggs wrote to Sigmund Freud about the experience of a traumatic epidemic in rural Venezuela. They consider how he was drawn into the mourning process as an anthropologist and photographer, and how mourners framed their work of mourning in relation to the long history of colonialism. They end the episode by talking about how anthropology itself might be reconsidered as the work of mourning.

The Conclusion of 'Walden,' Or 'Life In The Woods,' Written By Henry David Thoreau, Read By RM.

« Il bello e il brutto, il letterale e il metaforico, il sano e il folle, il comico e il serio... perfino l'amore e l'odio, sono tutti temi che oggi la scienza evita. Ma tra pochi anni, quando la spaccatura fra i problemi della mente e i problemi della natura cesserà di essere un fattore determinante di ciò su cui è impossibile riflettere, essi diventeranno accessibili al pensiero formale. »
	
(Gregory Bateson, Dove gli angeli esitano)
