Consumer society reduces man to an observer and puts up a masquerade of advertising and media, in which consumer illusions are sold, increasingly alienating people from themselves: 'Reality arises from the spectacle and the spectacle is reality.' Debord argued for a new situation, in which consumers awake and start to create their own lives. ![]() In his aphoristic pamphlet, Debord concludes that modern societies are characterised by ‘an immense accumulation of spectacles. The lines that Debord proclaims in the film are taken from his book The Society of the Spectacle ( La société du spectacle, 1967), a work that fanned the flames of (student) protest in 1968 and that is still horribly relevant today.

Perhaps this is because of his assumptions and my ignorance. ![]() I admit that I did not find this particular biography of Plutarch's to be as satisfying as some of the others. ![]() |
