The classes taught by Professor Ossandon are very quiet. The
contents are complex, so some sleep and others listen carefully to the
monologue that the teacher does. His voice is very calm, it makes the
environment relax and his didactic form of teaching captivates the students who
were not overcome by the dream.
I find the subject very interesting because the authors
treat very sensitive issues of the twentieth century and advance many of the
current social phenomena. What is enlightenment ?, mass culture, cultural
industries, technical reproducibility, etc. Are some of the contents that
analyze modernity, criticizing the whole structure of inequality and tyranny.
He explains that modernity is the result of four processes:
"Reformation", "illustration", "French
revolution" and "industrial revolution". To analyze that despite
having reached the "promise" of enlightenment, where reason and
domination over nature are central to the approach, we come to a twentieth
century of total destruction, violence, genocide and irrationality.
I like how they unleashed historical facts to make a harsh
criticism of the system. Despite being in the same historical context, they
were brave. Perhaps because they were protected by the complexity of their
writings, independent of that, they had the courage to divulge their works full
of cultural wealth, which today should leave the intellectual circles to be
read by a wider population.
I recommend "Critical Theory" with the teacher
ossadon, surely you will learn a lot.
