Bienheureuse est la vieillesse ! Prenant à contrepied bien des idées reçues, Robert Redeker remet à l'honneur et en pleine lumière ce moment de la vie qui suscite de nos jours tant de crainte et de refoulement. Quel peut être, dans ces conditions, l'avenir de la vieillesse ? Faut-il singer, dans son apparence physique, ses vêtements ou ses choix de vie, le jeunisme ambiant pour rester vivant ? Il faut savoir accepter la vieillesse pour l'assumer et la vivre, répond le philosophe dans un livre puissant et prophétique. Bien comprise, la vieillesse est résistance non d'un passé mort et idéalisé mais de la vie qui vient du fond des temps. Elle assure le maintien dans l'être des racines que la société travaille à détruire, dont elle ne veut plus entendre parler. Il faut sauver la vieillesse de l'élimination : car sans elle, c'est notre civilisation qui risque de s'éteindre. Et si la vieillesse était l'avenir et le salut du monde ? 2015.Learn to grow old
