Yes, she is needed now more than ever, but the question is: are there enough sane people left? She was lecturing and the people who should have turned up, were a no-show, and that’s people from her own field! I’m afraid society has gone too far to be brought back to their senses with logic. Unfortunately it will take something worse to swing opinions back, maybe to a place we don’t want to be in. But that seems to be the way things go with humanity.
@maryamakiling Yes, she gives her all even to a dwindling audience. American students should be ashamed that this hall wasn't packed to the rafters. I listened to and agreed with every word this fiercly intelligent woman had to say. Camille is one of the greatest and most important thinkers in the world today. Even at 70+ she'd still be a hot date too - particularly in that Robin Hood or Napoleon outfit !
tbh, It took me 3 days to go through this video. Most times, I had to pause, research what she said and do a TON of reading. LOL, she made me cry with the men going out to fix down power lines in an ice storm.
@@PhilBaird1 I want to talk to her much more than my friends whose erudition only extends to searching people on wikipedia and cruising for reasons to get offended
It’s an absolute injustice that over half of those seats remain empty. Camille word’s are more relevant than ever and yet no one is bothering to listen. A shame.
I am from Norway, and in the pandemic I have been enjoying lectures from Paglia. Now this lecture, I am in over two hours with great gratitude. And my jaw dropped at 2:17 when I saw about 25 students in a 200 seated empty space. And,, exactly- where are the gender study students, but really where are the people? SO sad. Paglia, thank you for your service and energy!
Yes, none of the gender studies (aka grievance studies) would be there as it's not a "safe space" and as for the rest, as a recently retired professor, most students are at university (at least in North America) are not there to learn but simply to get a credential for a job with the least amount of effort. It was a bad idea to expand the universities as we did in the 60s. Everyone does not "need" to go to university. It has vastly lowered the quality of the education and makes it very frustrating for those who are there to learn. It is mind-numbing to be in a class and to be the only one in the room (aside from the prof.) who has actually read the papers for the seminar. It's also mind-numbing for the prof. lol.
Hello, Just out of curiosity. Within the Norwegian environment. How many people do you think would show up if she lectured this kind of content over there? Just wondering how she would be perceived. Thank you.
What the hell is up with all the coughing, the audience wandering about, the empty seats?! She's a great speaker - some people don't know when they've got it good.
" If you've never seen what a powerful magnetic sexual woman looks like, then you are going to blame men for constructing it in their own perverted imaginations" - Paglia 27:17
"Sexual Personae" was printed in 1990. I finally started to read it this Summer in spanish (Paidós, México, Feb.2021 translation: Pilar Vázquez Álvarez) and got very impressed by the broad range of Paglia knowledge in history, semantics, ancient arts, readings, philosophy, rituals, sex, pornography, religion and feminism reasearching, plenty of examples and quotes plus photos, with her own conclusions displayed through the 24 chapters, enjoying her examples of Drag Queens, movie and rock stars, amazing prose, not always an easy book to understand neither explain here briefly the 900 pages (and bibliography) but still, I am so thankful for such a terrific tour the force flavored with humour and anti-dogmas which made me SEE the world and human nature differently. Grazie, Camille, molto originale. Felicidades. ¿Mi palabra favorita? "CTONICA". 😲
I never got such a thorough art lesson ever, this was amazing. I am currently listening to the Q&A, I adore her unapologetic stance on her points. What an inspiration!
I disagree and also found this part of the conversation a bit tonedeaf (although I've wholeheartedly enjoyed everything leading up to that). The names and achievements of female creators are widely misrepresented in history and in media for a variety of reasons, we know this! (as Prof Paglia herself mentions, the female Pharoahs being smote from the record). Reason no. 1: it pays.
I know. She's an utter treasure. I say this as some one who doesn't agree with her on every single thing (I'm not an atheist for example) but she NAILS it on feminism and universities and such.
Camille Paglia is indeed a force of nature! I Love her works because they're always thought provoking. We live in a Hobbesian world and her thoughts address that awesomely. She also compares in many instances with Nietzsche's warnings about modernity. I wish more people listened to her and read her.
Jessica Rose they should be taught...practically. If there's one thing school does too well is put knowledge in books and authors and divorce it from the Reality it came from. I had philosophy and all it taught me was a few ideas about certain issues and mildly talking about ethics
You could make the peresian argument that it should be taught on a childhood level, with respect being instilled early on for thinkers outside of the hard sciences. Issue there though is that say math and science can’t be easily subverted in a biased manner for societal power, philosophy and the like can be. So I would also stress that age and maturity are needed to be able to see and understand various thoughts, with it not being biased and dogmatic in terms of stressing say “the superiority of modernity,” or “the moral righteousness of democracy and humanitarianism.” It’s very easy to do a disservice to philosophy when it’s viewed in a retroactive manner.
it's all about identity only, face value, gender over biological sex, I'm guessing. I haven't taken one of those courses but those students would've screamed over her and not let her speak. I'm surprised she even has any recent talks at ANY universities at this point
Thank you so much for posting this. I could listen to Camille Paglia speak for hours, and just did! I'm reading her first book now and I'm so glad that even though I didn't go to college I still have access to this information. Thank you!
I'm so happy for you that you go to know Camille, Brandon! I've lived in and near Philadelphia for most of my life and her first book made such an impression on me, I am such a huge fan of hers and more recently of yours.
such an amazing lecture. im a little disappointed that nobody took advantage of that beautiful lecture she gave about art history. nobody had any questions about that. everyone just had questions about her political comments. she is not just a political commentator!!!!!!! she is a historian! and not just a historian..... but a historian of ART!!!!!! where are the ARTISTS in the crowd? frustrating
i dont know if you organized this but this is so great, makes me sad for any students now, they'll never get someone like this. i had some quirky professors that would sometimes give semi controversial opinions, but i can't imagine that happening at all now. how boring college must be now
Please don't tell me that these american students are hearing this for the first time...in Europe we are tought about these works of art when we are 15
Art of Song Lyrics, call and response, polyrhythms, slide guitar, sounds fantastic, wish I was in college again! What about Roxy Music and Brian Ferry’s influence on Bowie, the glam rock idiom is just as legit to me as bebop.
elvan It's because women fall for ideological world thinking of people's that are at the core of it,and no wonder and it seems benefiting in their eyes as being women,it's even bizzare time that the idea of being objective and rational is considered as oppression, which ridiculously unreasonable to the core.
@@samhan7348 that’s not true. She has a lot of female fans. I’m one of them. Men don’t fall for ideologies? Isn’t the whole human history proof that in fact they very much do?
She's not asking them to be like her, she's suggesting that they have been raised and or miseducated about the nature of reality. As a women around her age I agree. I was there, you don't have to be like her, but you do need to know that you are not special and that the world doesn't revolve around you. It's the Disney syndrome "little princesses". Adult life is all about dealing with shit. Never learned that reality is indifferent to you and your feelings. So they blame men.
Disagree with Camille’s understanding of the absence of Mary and the Mother and Child motif in the Bible. It is in key parts of the Old Testament and in the Gospel, particularly in Luke, especially the Infancy narrative.The Protestant Reformers, with perhaps the exception of Luther, were iconoclastic and hated the idea of intermediaries between Christ and themselves.
Because, the 60s happened and the universities were taken over by warmed over Marxism, post-modernism, identity politics , feminism, etc. At the bottom it was intellectual arrogance of the Boomer generation (I'm a Boomer, lol) , the ever all-knowing adolescents. If you're interested in reading more about the destruction of the universities and the descent into a denial of reality try: J. Lindsay & H. Pluckrose, Cynical Theories, 2020; Thomas Sowell ,The Vision of the Anointed (there is a second ed.) or anything by Sowell; Victor Davis Hanson, Bonfire of the Humanities: Rescuing the Classics ... It's know as the long march through the academy, an intentional destruction of the West's intellectual heritage, the jewel of which is science. That is, there is an external objective reality that can be examined. In order to do this freedom of speech and the opportunity to criticize are essential. Hence the emphasis on controlling speech.
I'm pretty sure the Venus of laussel engraving is holding the horn as if she were drinking from it and looking away. The way it's balanced is as if it's holding a liquid as it could be nearly full and reaching the brim at that angle with its shape
Who are these guys presenting this? Hats off to them for having the balls to put this together. It feels like anyone that would attach themselves to Pagila in academia at this point would be all but ensuring they're never going to have a career.
52:00 I really appreciate just the little act of rebellion to the million gender activists there. Even though she is talking about a mythological intersex being, she NEVER refers to Hapi as a “they” but rather “He/she”. And she doesn’t at all sound clunky while doing it. In fact it’s better than the lazy “They” that gender activists want us to use. Additionally, it actually respects intersex people because instead of trying to shove them into a nonexistent third gender for the sake of validating privileged white children, she actually gives intersex people a choice of identity rather than pidgin-holing random people with the same medical condition but different identities into one identity that they might not agree with. Just had to point out the little bit of pushback that all of us need to exercise everyday to keep free speech.
Her work absolutely needs to be in gender studies courses or just forget about gender studies. The audience appears to be mostly young men which is sad as young woman near to hear this as they are currently being indoctrinated by ideologues.
Great speech but I find it hard to believe they didn't realize that mating produced pregnancy. They most certainly saw lots of wildlife mating, they would have figured it out.
Among lowlands peoples in the Amazon Basin, there has been a widespread belief that multiple men can contribute to producing a single child, their semen building up or anointing the foetus during pregnancy. At the turn of the 20th century, anthropologists such as Bronislaw Malinowski in The Father in Primitive Psychology (1927), and Douglas Lockwood in I, the Aboriginal (1962), recorded the stories of peoples of the South Pacific and Australia who believed that penetrating intercourse opens up a woman or makes ‘the road’ for conception. In an isolated group with lots of casual sex the link may not be obvious at all. There are no symptoms for weeks, the only thing they would see is that girls start to become pregnant as they grow older, very few acts of sex would result in pregnancy. Was pregnancy the result of many acts of sex with many different partners which took place 4-5 weeks ago - if sex is going on all the time it's not an easy connection to make. In particular if they don't keep domestic livestock it's not going to be obvious. A simpler explanation they might form is that pregnancy is a natural part of the female ageing process. We are the only species of primate with 'reproductive consciousness' and that awareness would have formed at different times in different primitive societies.
I totally agree with her.The hard lefty feminists had lost the power of real woman.They lost the power of beauty and joy.And the woman ,who fallow them today ,are always unhappy and angry.I prefer to by one good wine and drink it in beatiful place with my exhusband and exlover .Both are owesome man.And the angry lefty feminist are never a good company.
one of her points is so shortsighted. brazilians and the like have had far too much time to internalize their oppression for that example of their "sexualization" to hold any water.
Where is she today. I don’t consider her a feminist not women’s movement activist. I do wonder where she is today, west needs her and the women only allowed to ideal up for men and boys, reason and logic, rationality and common sense.
Camille Paglia is a force of nature, OK.
OK
she has a brain...
Ok. Yes you're right ok?
A Force Against "Nature"......
Alright.
Gender Studies Professors are terrified of her. She absolutely nails it, time after time. God bless her keep her healthy and in the fight.

I suspect that realization came during the pastoralist phase not hunter gatherer.
Among lowlands peoples in the Amazon Basin, there has been a widespread belief that multiple men can contribute to producing a single child, their semen building up or anointing the foetus during pregnancy. At the turn of the 20th century, anthropologists such as Bronislaw Malinowski in The Father in Primitive Psychology (1927), and Douglas Lockwood in I, the Aboriginal (1962), recorded the stories of peoples of the South Pacific and Australia who believed that penetrating intercourse opens up a woman or makes ‘the road’ for conception.
In an isolated group with lots of casual sex the link may not be obvious at all. There are no symptoms for weeks, the only thing they would see is that girls start to become pregnant as they grow older, very few acts of sex would result in pregnancy. Was pregnancy the result of many acts of sex with many different partners which took place 4-5 weeks ago - if sex is going on all the time it's not an easy connection to make. In particular if they don't keep domestic livestock it's not going to be obvious. A simpler explanation they might form is that pregnancy is a natural part of the female ageing process. We are the only species of primate with 'reproductive consciousness' and that awareness would have formed at different times in different primitive societies.
I totally agree with her.The hard lefty feminists had lost the power of real woman.They lost the power of beauty and joy.And the woman ,who fallow them today ,are always unhappy and angry.I prefer to by one good wine and drink it in beatiful place with my exhusband and exlover .Both are owesome man.And the angry lefty feminist are never a good company.
Drink everytime she says okay.
What is this? (1:21:29)
1:43:44 still a mischief!
one of her points is so shortsighted. brazilians and the like have had far too much time to internalize their oppression for that example of their "sexualization" to hold any water.
also, of course there was never a matriarchy. thats oxymoronic. matrilineality however is not a myth and some of her obtuseness is frankly sophomoric.
Where is she today. I don’t consider her a feminist not women’s movement activist.
I do wonder where she is today, west needs her and the women only allowed to ideal up for men and boys, reason and logic, rationality and common sense.
1:25:00 We MUST heed this warning. What follows degeneracy will be something to fear.
Oh my god, she is so right about working class women. 😂😂😂😂
yikes! 3 hours...can I handle it?
MrRatherino camille is one of the few speakers i would gladly listen to for three hours, and probably even longer
