The Parasite with Massimiliano Simons - The Michel Serres Project

Welcome to the first episode within a series title ‘The Michel Serres Project’ In this series I aim to interview interview a Michel Serres scholar or researcher on one of Serres’ numerous text, or an aspect of Serres’ philosophy.

In this episode I’m joined by Massimiliano Simons, a post-doctoral researcher in the philosophy of science at the University of Ghent. We discuss Michel Serres’ book *The Parasite*, forms of parasite, the philosophy of the parasite, desire, mimesis and the philosophy of science.

Serres is such an underrated thinker, thank you for spreading the word. Serres was a truely poetic thinker and makes for a very enjoyable read even if you don't always understand his points

I just finished the first two chapters after stumbling across it by accident, and now I MUST hear someone else’s opinion or interpretation.

Excellent stuff!
There are Species which are not parasites.
The Sun for example is about Sharing as are Good Humans and Animals.
