In this dazzling new series, philosopher and cultural critic Slavoj Zizek interrogates key writings on revolution.
Robespierre's defense of the French Revolution remains one of the most powerful and unnerving justifications for political violence ever written, and has extraordinary resonance in a world obsessed with terrorism and appalled by the language of its proponents. Yet today, the French Revolution is celebrated as the event which gave birth to a nation built on the principles of enlightenment… So how should a contemporary audience approach Robespierre's vindication of revolutionary terror? Zizek takes a helter-skelter route through these contradictions, marshalling all the breadth of analogy for which he is famous.
"If the spring of popular government in time of peace is virtue, the springs of popular government in revolution are at once virtue and terror: virtue, without which terror is fatal; terror, without which virtue is powerless."—Robespierre

简直无法和文学系的人上同一个课——原文里所有符合他们口味的内容，他们就说是罗伯斯庇尔的真话；所有不符合口味的内容，就变成罗伯斯庇尔的修辞了。承认文本的复杂性、而不是把罗伯斯庇尔硬塞进齐泽克的框架（诸如“极权主义只是自由主义者立的稻草人”之类的，耳朵都听出茧子了），有这么难么？
