The disenchantment of the world, or: how is the company's control gradually centered on principles that are defined or ultimately boil down to denying the existence of the company, of subjective dependence on an order or a life broader. Unfortunately for Gauchet, its option to withdraw media and non-appearance (thinker in shadow) is apparent désaventage favor or do not sufficiently constrain the interference, copying, pastiches, revivals barely masked this capital work which engage amounts of authors more or less success. Therefore, say things clearly at the risk of ignoring the times, borrowing and unacknowledged quotes which also comes to Gauchet and the risk of over-bid on the figure of the author "original", and not inspired reducible to the sum of its readings and "air time" figure does not claim in any case not Gauchet: the disenchantment of the world is an obligatory reference
