"We have been warned. From Orwell to Brodsky ("evil is a bad stylist"), we have been put on guard: when words lose their integrity, democracy corrodes. Vita Matiss asks us to pay attention to the language used by politicians, bankers, bureaucrats and ordinary citizens today: is anyone actually saying something, or are words being used to give the "appearance of solidity to pure wind"? Is our slide back into an image based culture corrupting our democracies?"
Nous n'héritons pas de la terre de nos ancêtres, mais nous l'empruntons à nos enfants.
