World-famous in sociology and philosophy circles, Pierre Bourdieu has been untouchable - until now. Witty, sharp and rigorous, author Verdes-Lerroux paints a highly charged portrait, denouncing his militancy, hypocrisy, elitism and shallowness.

Wie lässt sich der Bildungsroman als Gattung fassen, ohne entweder seine Entstehung oder seine vielfältigen Wandlungen zu marginalisieren? Im vorliegenden Band können die in der Gattung verhandelten Relationen von Individuum, Gesellschaft, Bildung und Kunst bzw. Literatur mit einem feldtheoretisch modellierten Gattungsverständnis sowohl diachron als auch synchron verortet und analysiert werden. Gattungsgenese und -wandel werden dabei nicht einsträngig-linear entwickelt, sondern durch neun exemplarische Aufsätze spezifisch perspektiviert. Dabei werden die beteiligten Akteure und die der Gattung jeweils zugesprochene Wertigkeit systematisch verbunden, indem Publikation und Rezeption als strategische Positionierungen verstanden werden. Die Bildungsromane des 20. und 21. Jahrhunderts lassen sich dabei im gleichen Maße als aktiver Anschluss an eine Traditionslinie verstehen, wie sie auch Verschiebungen deutlich sichtbar machen.Der Band ist für all diejenigen von Interesse, die sich für einen neuen sozialgeschichtlich-hermeneutischen Zugang zur Gattung des Bildungsroman interessieren und kanonische sowie bisher weniger bekannte Werke im Gattungszusammenhang kennenlernen wollen.

Pierre Bourdieu (1930-2002) is the most influential sociologist of our time. His works take in education, culture, sport, literature, painting, class, philosophy, religion, law, media, intellectuals, methodology, photography, universities, colonialism, kinship, schooling and politics. Not much remains outside Bourdieu's sociological eye. His works are widely read across disciplines and he was one of the most prominent public intellectuals in France. Conversations with Bourdieu presents the first comprehensive attempt at a critical engagement with Bourdieu's theory as a totality. Michael Burawoy constructs a series of imaginary conversations between Bourdieu and his nemesis - Marxism - from which he silently borrowed so much. Starting with Marx, and proceeding through Gramsci, Fanon, Freire, de Beauvoir, and Mills, Burawoy takes up the challenge Bourdieu presents to Marxism, simultaneously developing a critique of Bourdieu and a reconstruction of Marxism. Karl Von Holdt, in turn, brings these conversations to South Africa, showing the relevance of Bourdieu's ideas to a country he never visited. Armed with Bourdieu, Von Holdt takes up some of the most pressing social and political issues of contemporary South Africa: the relation between symbolic and real violence, the place of intellectuals in public life, the intervention of gender in politics, the grappling with race, the critique of education, the importance of habitus, the history and future of class mobilisation, and the legacy of the liberation struggle. Conversations with Bourdieu pioneers a distinctive approach to doing social theory that is neither a combat sport nor an artificial synthesis, but a way of pushing theory to its limits through dialogue - dialogue between theorists and dialogue between theory and the world it represents. The book is distinctive too in pointing towards a new global sociology consciously rooted in a dialogue between the social realities and theoretical perspectives of North and South. The conversations were first presented as Mellon Lectures at the University of the Witwatersrand, Johannesburg in 2010
