I'd put Adam Curtis in the same category as Zizek, where they're about aesthetics and moods with heavy artistic licence, rather than a literal documentary exposition.
- lilsoso 6y agoZizek writes serious books. He's often known by the public for making jokes because that's what the public consumes: they don't read serious books.
- bogomipz 6y agoMight you or someone else recommend which book or books might be a good introduction to Zizek? Thanks.
- maze-le 6y agoZizek has made a joke once, that he has essentially written one book, but that about 60 times. If you want to seriously engage in his philosphical thought: "The Sublime Object of Ideology" is a good pick.
