The world history of happiness

" (Seek Midi)

tells another story of humanity through this universal quest in which religions and spiritualities occupy a central place.

About sixty contributors from the human sciences under the direction of historian

François Durpaire

for this large fresco which questions happiness from prehistory to the present day. 

Des smiles et des hommes

” (Bayard)

by Marie-Françoise Salès

invites the reader to a philosophical and spiritual reflection on the smile.

What does he express in life in society?

What are his messages?

What does his absence reveal?

What does the smile say about our inner life? 

In the age of Covid and masks, this very unique approach takes on all the more relief.
