Essenal reading for an under-

standing of contemporary Que-

bec, The Dream of Naon traces

the changing nature of various

demonstrates that these dreams,

fashioned by elites in response to

the recurring queson of how to

be French in North America, pro-

posed an ever-elusive unanimity.

Lars Svendsen

Work is one of the most univer-

associated with tedium and bore-

Thinking of work primarily as a

burden - an acvity we would

rather be without - goes back atleast as far as ancient Greece,

whose philosophers generally

regarded work as a terrible curse.

FameMark Rowlands

Mark Rowlands argues that our

obsession with fame has trans-

formed it: no longer associatedwith excellence or achievement

in a eld of endeavour, it is now

unconnected to any discernible

disncon, allowing a person

to be famous simply for being

famous.
