Description

Früher war alles besser, so hören wir fast täglich von unseren Eltern und Großeltern oder von Mitreisenden in der U-Bahn. Früher, da haben sich die Menschen noch miteinander unterhalten, statt auf ihre Handys zu starren. Sie engagierten sich für die Gemeinschaft, statt vereinzelt vor sich hin zu vegetieren, und nebenbei hatte der Sommer noch die perfekte Temperatur.Michel Serres wuchs vor über achtzig Jahren im ländlichen Südwestfrankreich auf, und er kann uns erzählen, wie es wirklich war: Ja, die Hühner mögen alle frei herumgelaufen sein, und die Schweine wurden noch nicht mit Antibiotika behandelt. Aber Seuchen und Krankheiten waren an der Tagesordnung, bei Tieren wie bei Menschen. Zwar gab es keine Internetpornos, doch manch junges Paar glaubte, die Liebe werde durch den Bauchnabel gemacht. Die Nostalgie für das Vergangene, so ermahnt uns Serres, lässt uns vergessen, was unsere Gegenwart so wertvoll macht.
