Description

Bruno Latour s long term project is to compare the felicity and infelicity conditions of the different values dearest to the heart of those who have never been modern . According to him, this is the only way to develop an anthropology of the Moderns.

"In a book both informative and transformative, Latour may well have succeeded in his aim to ‘reboot the teeniest hint of a beginning of a religious sentiment’"
Southern Semiotic Review

"Rejoicing is a kind of meditation:  Latour has composed, in Yeats’ phrase, a dialogue of self and soul.”
Chicago Tribune

"In this honest , profound yet accessible book, a distinguished French scholar and public intellectual carries on an agonized dialog with himself as he faces the obstacles to religious faith today - and then points toward a resolution. As I read, I felt he had climbed into my soul."
John O’Malley, Georgetown University

"Rejoicing constitutes a creative, thought-provoking and impressive blend of, and reflection upon, learning and traditions."
Rebecca Catto, Coventry University



Bruno Latour is one of the world’s leading sociologists and anthropologists. He taught at the École des Mines in Paris from 1982 to 2006 and he is now Professor and Vice-President for Research at Institut d'études politiques (Sciences Po). His many books include Laboratory Life, We Have Never Been Modern, Reassembling the Social and The Making of Law.
