Wij, mensen, zijn raadselachtige dieren. We lopen rechtop, we bedrijven de liefde het hele jaar door en we hebben praat voor tien. Niet dat we altijd zinnige dingen zeggen, want vaak weten we niet wat gezegd en spreken we toch. Dooddoeners heet zoiets. Ogenschijnlijk zijn ze nietszeggend, maar niets is minder waar. Dooddoeners zijn soms ook doordenkers. Jean Paul Van Bendegem en Ignaas Devisch gaan op zoek naar de diepere betekenis van 104 dooddoeners. Van 'als we maar gezond zijn' en 'ik ben geen racist, maar' tot 'dit is te zot voor woorden' en 'ja maar, da's toch logisch': weten we wel wat we zeggen als we een dooddoener gebruiken? 'Doordenken over dooddoeners' is een even geestig als diepzinnig boek over de vele manieren waarop we niets proberen te zeggen tegen elkaar en daardoor ongewild meer zeggen dan we bedoeld hadden.

"A vivacious biography of the prophetic and sympathetic philosopher who along with Voltaire and Rousseau built the foundations of the modern world, and travelled as far as Russia to enlighten the Tsarina Catherine the Great. Denis Diderot is often associated with the decades-long battle to bring the world's first comprehensive Encyclopédie into existence. But his most compelling and personal writing took place in the shadows. Thrown into prison for his atheism in 1749, Diderot decided to reserve his most daring books for posterity--for us, in fact. In the astonishing cache of unpublished writings that he left behind after his death, Diderot dreamed of natural selection before Darwin, the Oedipus complex before Freud, and genetic manipulation centuries before Dolly the Sheep was born. Even more audaciously, the writer challenged virtually all of his century's accepted truths, from the sanctity of monarchy, to the racial justification of slave trade, to the limits of human sexuality. He was also keenly aware of the dangers of absolute power, about which he wrote so persuasively that it led Catherine the Great not only to support him financially but also to invite him to St. Petersburg. In this thematically organized biography, Andrew Curran vividly describes Diderot's tormented relationship with Rousseau, his feud with Voltaire, his tortured marriage, his passionate affairs, and his often-paradoxical stand on art, morality, and religion. But what this book brings out most brilliantly is how a man's character flaws and limitations are often the flip side of his genius and his ability to break taboos, dogmas, and conventions"--
