Sadder than destitution, sadder than a beggar is the man who eats alone in public. Nothing more contradicts the laws of man or beast, for animals always do each other the honor of sharing or disputing each other’s food.–Jean Baudrillard, 1986
French theorist Jean Baudrillard (1929–2007) was one of the foremost intellectual figures in modern history. His work combines philosophy, social theory, and an idiosyncratic cultural metaphysics that reflects on key events of phenomena of the period.
