The figure of the intellectual and the power of culture

About The figure of the intellectual and the power of culture

This book is in two main parts. The first deals with a great French intellectual, the sociologist Pierre Bourdieu, who is considered one of the most important sociologists in the field of modern sociology. The second part deals with the usefulness of art in modern society, through the genius of the image and its influence on people, and the cultural function of television. Hence, both parts of this book deal with the role of the intellectual and the symbolic influence of his ideas on the course of society and its development. And since, in the words of Edgar Morin, the intellectual "is one who works on ideas, and particularly on ideas of human, social and moral importance", we can say that the role of the intellectual is very important in modern society.
