Celui qui parlait presque

Rate this book
Quand une riche Anglaise, un scientifique grognon, un singe bonobo et un jeune homme épris de religion se réunissent dans un château en Provence, que font-ils ? Ils parlent. Et de quoi parlent-ils ? Des origines de l'homme, de l'apparition du langage, du secret de la mémoire ou encore de l'émergence du désir. Subtil, drôle, érudit, Jean-Didier Vincent nous offre, dans ce livre écrit à la manière du XVIIIe siècle et avec la complicité involontaire de Diderot, une défense et illustration de la raison matérielle.

187 pages, Paperback
