Synopsis "INSUMISOS (in Spanish)"

En unos tiempos en que la ciudadanía europea vive cada vez más el desapego hacia sus representantes políticos al tiempo que crecen las incertidumbres, Tzvetan Todorov nos hace descubrir o redescubrir figuras que, cada una a su manera, lograron conciliar exigencia moral y acción pública. Vivieron en contextos diferentes, se enfrentaron a enemigos de distinta naturaleza y sus respuestas fueron diversas. Todos ellos, sin embargo, renunciaron al confort, pusieron en riesgo su libertad, en ocasiones su vida, rechazaron el sometimiento y tuvieron el coraje de resistir evitando a la vez sucumbir al odio y a la tentación de la venganza. Los nombres de los ocho Insumisos son más o menos conocidos: Etty Hillesum, Germaine Tillion, Borís Pasternak, Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn, Nelson Mandela, Malcolm X, David Shulman y Edward Snowden. Pero sus opciones éticas no han tenido siempre la atención que merecen. Tzvetan Todorov viene a cubrir esa laguna y, fiel una vez más a su voluntad de reflexionar sobre los desafíos de nuestro mundo, nos ofrece con estos Insumisos una fuente apasionante de reflexión y de inspiración. No únicamente para formular nuestras reacciones como ciudadanos ante los debates públicos, sino también para responder a los desafíos más ordinarios de nuestra vida cotidiana.

Tzvetan Todorov (Sofia, 1939 – Paris, 2017) was a Bulgarian-born French linguist, philosopher, historian of ideas, and literary theorist. Professor at the CNRS in Paris and visiting scholar at Yale, Harvard, and Columbia, he began his work in literary theory with Theory of Literature of the Russian Formalists (1965) and Literature and Signification (1967), pioneering texts in semiotics and narratology. From the 80s, he shifted towards historical and ethical essays, reflecting on the Enlightenment and totalitarianisms.

Among his most influential titles are The Conquest of America: The Question of the Other (1982), Facing the Limit (1991; Facing the Extreme), and The Abuses of Memory (1995). His exploration of evil and memory in the 20th century is summarized in Memory of Evil, Temptation of Good (2000) and The Totalitarian Experience (2010). These works, of an essayistic and historiographic genre, did not receive specific literary awards, but Todorov was honored with the Prince of Asturias Award for Social Sciences in 2008 and received distinctions such as the Medal of the Order of Arts and Letters in France.
