And for the most part, we imagine the new is always identifiable as a radical break from the past. But the nature of the new is more elusive and unknown than it first appears.

Life and Art from FT WeekendUsing AI as a tool for creativityOne of the hallmarks of humanity is our ability to pass down cultural information and knowledge over thousands of years. Philosopher and author Martin Puchner says the lifeblood of culture lies in how we take pieces of information and combine them into new ideas and ways of inhabiting the world. Martin talks with Lilah about how that culture is formed, and how he sees the emergence of generative AI as a new tool for remixing cultural ideas from human history. This conversation was recorded in front of a live audience at the FT Weekend Festival in Washington, DC.

Sternstunde PhilosophieMartin Puchner – Literatur für die ZukunftGeschichten können vieles: berühren, sensibilisieren, mitreissen. Die Fünf-vor-zwölf-Rhetorik tut nichts davon, sagt Martin Puchner, Professor an der renommierten Harvard Universität. Wollen wir die Krisen unserer Zeit meistern, brauchen wir neue und bessere Erzählungen. Die Menschheit erzählt Geschichten, seit sie der Sprache mächtig ist. Erforscht man die Weltliteratur, erforscht man deshalb immer auch sich selbst. Für Martin Puchner, Professor für Literaturwissenschaft und Komparatistik an der renommierten Harvard Universität in den USA, liegen in diesen Zeugnissen die Schlüssel zum Verständnis heutiger Krisen. So ist bereits das Gilgamesch-Epos, das rund 4000 Jahre alt ist...

Writ LargeOn Martin Puchner's "The Written World"What is the world without literature? It’s hard to imagine. We’d lose novels, sure. But we’d also lose the philosophies, politics, and religions of today because these all grew out of literature. There would be no sacred texts, no newspapers, not even TV shows. This is how Martin Puchner’s 2018 book The Written World begins.

Und sie benutzten einen geheimen Code, um auf der Straße zu überleben. Man nannte sie Vagabunden, Ausgestoßene, fahrendes Volk. Ihre rätselhafte Sprache, das Rotwelsch, hat Martin Puchner schon in den siebziger Jahren als Kind in der fränkischen Provinz fasziniert. Viel später, als Professor in Harvard, wird er diesen Code als Wissenschaftler erforschen – und erkennen, dass auch seine eigene Familie mit dieser Sprache auf unheilvolle Weise verbunden ist. Ein bewegendes und anrührendes Buch über die unheimliche Macht der Worte - und ein d...

Based on the history of world literature presented in the first two lectures, Martin Puchner will seek to draw conclusions about the role of the humanities today.

TORCH | The Oxford Research Centre in the HumanitiesPrinceton University Press Lectures in European History and Culture II:Think Big! A modest argument about large scalesMartin Puchner gives the second lecture in the Princeton University Press Lectures in European History and Culture. The idea of world literature contains an argument in favor of large-scale comparative projects. But most humanities disciplines have shied away from these sorts of projects, deterred by a skepticism with respect to grand narratives and worries about Eurocentric universalism. In this context, other disciplines from physics to biology have taken over the job of telling overarching stories. Martin Puchner will argue that much gets lost when we neglect the big picture. But how should we humanists proceed, taking into account decades of...

On January 31st, 1827, the German writer Johann Wolfgang von Goethe shocked his secretary by uttering a new word: world literature. Goethe had just read a Chinese novel and concluded that Europe needed to rethink its relation to the rest of the world. Humanity was entering a new phase: the phase of world literature. Coined in provincial Weimar, the idea of world literature soon caught the imagination of Marx and Engels and was subsequently used by...

In his research into what this language was — where it came from, who spoke it, and why — Puchner was forced to confront the good and the bad in his own family's history and how he would choose to inherit the Rotwelsch legacy.
