The excerpts are from Olavo de Carvalho's book O Jardim das Aflições. Carvalho, a Brazilian philosopher, criticises what he sees as the intellectual failings of the Brazilian intelligentsia. He argues that the intellectuals have become detached from reality, embracing fashionable ideas and focusing on trivialities, while neglecting timeless truths and fundamental moral values. He also condemns the intellectuals for promoting a culture of moral relativism and for pandering to the lowest common denominator of public opinion, often at the expense of truth and justice. He criticises the role of the media, arguing that it distorts reality by focusing on ephemeral trends and sensationalist stories, while ignoring issues of real importance. Carvalho's book is a sustained and polemical attack on the intellectual and cultural landscape of Brazil.
