Eva Illouz | Why Love Hurts | GREAT MINDS

Our newest lecturer, French-Moroccan sociologist Eva Illouz unravels the mass of images that define our ideas of love and romance, revealing that the experience of "true" love is deeply embedded in the experience of consumer capitalism.

Engaging and witty, Illouz's lectures illustrate how individual conceptions of love overlap with the world of clichés and images she calls the "Romantic Utopia” through hit films and popular culture. Combining extensive historical research, interviews, and postmodern social theory, she brings an impressive scholarship to her fascinating portrait of love in America.
Illouz is renowned for her work exploring several significant and thought-provoking themes, such as the influence of capitalism on emotions, the commodification of romance and the meaning of freedom, choice, and individualism in the modern world.
Eva Illouz is a professor at Ecole des Hautes Etudes en Sciences Sociales (School for Advanced Studies in the Social Sciences) in Paris, and used to teach at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem. Her work focuses on the sociology of emotions, and understanding how the inner life is actually shaped by society and by the economy.
Her lecture series on GREAT MINDS may change our way of thinking about what is love is and what is wrong in modern relationships.
Don’t miss the opportunity to explore love through a sociological explanation.
Watch your insights grow and your universe expand.
