Hello there, When I was scrolling through insta, I constantly had recommendation for Pierre Bourdieu, especially in regard to academia and the markers of one’s social class. So, I wanted to ask:
-
Do you think Bourdieu’s work is valuable for a Marxist-Leninist in academia? Which books would of him you recommend?
-
I also had recommendations for Adorno and Said. What do you think about them?
-
And of course, I wanted to ask you all about your thoughts on Umberto’s Ecco’s work?
Also, I feel like books have recently gotten more expensive, I do not think its just because of inflation. It feels to me like they are trying to make books more inaccessible again.
Anyways you can add more recommendations below.

Thank you do you know if “homo Academicus” is part of his sociological analysis or not?
Yeah and as for Eccos “the name of the rose” I think there even was a movie adaptation for it
Yes. One of the core parts of his analysis.
