«Éloge des intellectuels» is the philosophical essay by Bernard-Henri Lévy, published by LGF/Le Livre de Poche in paperback (93 pages, in French).
The essay starts from an observation: intellectuals are no longer hated or vilified as in the Dreyfus affair, the 1930s or the Algerian War, but rather live through a muted crisis. Faced with this unease, Lévy proposes a programmatic text that outlines the new figure of an intellectual engaged with the problems of modernity.
The work was originally published in 1987; this edition is from 1988 and belongs to the biblio essais collection of Le Livre de Poche.
Suitable for university students and professionals interested in philosophy, political theory and the social role of intellectuals.
Bernard-Henri Georges Lévy is a French public intellectual. Often referred to in France simply as BHL, he was one of the leaders of the "Nouveaux Philosophes" movement in 1976. His opinions, political activism, and publications have also been the subject of several controversies over the years.
