Journalist Louis Daufresnes interviews Cécile Alduy in "Le Grand Témoin" about the elusive nature of political concepts, their plasticity and who gets to define their pragmatic meaning in society.
In this 28-minute vivid conversation, we look at how national sentiment in the Renaissance emerged as a dynamic competition and emulation with other countries rather than a rigid definition of the identity of a people, and compare Marine Le Pen's discourse with that of other political figures. And yes, we even talk about hypotyposis!
