Overview
Fanny Howe s literary genius envisages the figure of the Child as exemplary of profound knowledge that cannot wield power. Night Philosophy is an echo of all those who continue to refuse to pay the price of dominating others.
Night Philosophy is collected around the figure of the child, the figure of the child not just as a little person under the tutelage of adults, but also the submerged one, who knows, who is without power, who doesn t matter. The book proposes a minor politics that disperses all concentrations of power. Fanny Howe chronicles the weak and persistent, those who never assimilate at the cost of having another group to dominate. She explores the dynamics of the child as victim in a desensitized era, when transgression is the zeitgeist and the victim-perpetrator model controls citizens.
