«El culte a l'emoció» is the essay by Michel Lacroix, published by Edicions La Campana in paperback (248 pages, in Catalan).
Contemporary society seems hooked on excitement: extreme sports, pop concerts, aggressive video games, rave parties and advertising all seek to make us «vibrate». Michel Lacroix analyzes this cult of emotion and its manufacturers and consumers, and asks whether we are increasingly excitable but less sensitive.
Obertures collection, number 17. The edition includes a prologue by Salvador Cardús. The original French title is «Le culte de l'émotion».
Recommended for readers of essays and philosophy interested in critical analysis of contemporary culture.
