A Maturana-Informed Grammar of Viability
Conserving Life, Love, Reflection, and CoexistenceBy Dr. Bichara Sahely
Length4h 26m
About this audiobook
A Maturana-Informed Grammar of Viability develops a slow, reflective way of asking what kind of world we conserve through our living. Drawing from Humberto Maturana’s biology of love, it moves from living, structural coupling, emotioning, languaging, conversation, and culture toward a practical grammar for seeing whether families, institutions, economies, and civilizations conserve life or negate it. At its center is one question: What manner of living is being conserved here, and does it keep life livable?
