‘We can't deny it: we are living in emotional times. Wherever we look, turmoil is the norm, intensity the form.' These are the opening words of De Mobilisatie van Arcadia (The Mobilisation of Arcadia), the new collection of essays by Stefan Hertmans, in which he dissects our longing for an Arcadian way of life. With Anna Luyten as host, Hertmans talks with the Dutch philosopher Stine Jensen. Jensen is a literary scholar (UvA), writes for NRC and recently published Echte Vrienden (Real Friends), the essay of the ‘Maand van de Filosofie' (Month of Philosophy).

Organization: deBuren and the Flemish Parliament
