¿Y si aprovecháramos el poder de la vergüenza como un motor vital y político?

El nuevo ensayo del autor de Andar, una filosofía.

La vergüenza es un sentimiento omnipresente en el mundo contemporáneo, un signo de nuestra responsabilidad. Podemos avergonzarnos del estado del mundo, de las propias pertenencias frente a los que no tienen nada, de la indecente riqueza de los poderosos, del modo en que asfixiamos el planeta, de las actitudes sexistas o racistas...

La vergüenza no es solo tristeza y retraimiento; también es portadora de ira, de una energía transformadora. Por eso Marx proclamó que la vergüenza es revolucionaria.

En este ensayo, Frédéric Gros recurre a autores como Primo Levi, a Annie Ernaux, a Virginie Despentes y a James Baldwin, para explorar las profundidades de un sentimiento demasiado olvidado en la filosofía moral y política.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

An original reflection on shame as the central feeling of our age - the expression of an anger that is the necessary condition for new struggles.

Can shame become a source of political strength? Faced with injustice, growing inequality and systemic violence, we cry out in shame. We feel ashamed of obscene wealth amid wider deprivation. We feel ashamed of humanity for its ruthless and relentless exploitation of the earth. We feel ashamed of the racism and sexism that permeate society and our everyday lives.

This difficult emotion is not just sadness or a withdrawal into oneself, nor is it a paralysing sense of inadequacy. As Frédéric Gros argues in A Philosophy of Shame, it arises when our perception of reality rejects passivity and resignation and instead embraces imagination. Shame thus becomes the expression of an anger that is a powerful, transformative force -one that assumes a radical character.

In dialogue with authors such as Primo Levi, Annie Ernaux, Virginie Despentes and James Baldwin, Gros explores a concept that is still little understood in its anthropological, moral, psychological and political depths. Shame is a revolu­tionary sentiment because it lies at the foundation of any path of subjective recognition, transformation and struggle.

Looked great, but needed it one size bigger...

This tux was really cool and looked nice, but it was a tad too small. Needed it one size bigger!

Pleasantly surprised by fit and finish
Size: X-Small, Color: Royal Blue
I usually wear bespoke suits, but I thought I'd give these a try. I'm a 38R in US sizes and I ordered the XS size. The jacket and vest fit nicely and looks sleek. The pants are a bit long, but easily hemmed. The material feels nice and the blue is vibrant. It comes in a bag so you will need to spend some time to steam out the creases and wrinkles. The ensemble gives a modern fitted aesthetic without being tight and uncomfortable and is provides a really good budget value. I can say yet how it will stand up to the test of time, but it's off to a good start.

Great suit for the price
Size: Large, Color: Royal Blue, Size: Large, Color: Royal Blue
This suit fits pretty well for non-custom cut. The vest and jacket fit almost perfectly. When all buttoned up, there's a slight bulge, but not too noticeable. The pants could use some tailoring. They don't look as slim as I'd hoped. The cut and fabric are a great value, considering the price. This classic blue, with a slight sheen, will be a great suit to wear to parties and the symphony this holiday season.

Elegant & Comfortable
It's a beautiful three-piece set with a stunning design and fabric quality. The vest and jacket are comfortable and elegantly complement each other, and the vest is easy to adjust to fit your frame as long as you don't get a size too small. Additionally, the pants are of such high quality that they easily make for a great pair of pants outside of pairing with the suit.
