A debate on the meaning of their books will follow, moderated by Mgr Bernard Podvin.

Emmanuel Tourpe is a doctor of philosophy by training. He combines his two passions on a daily basis. The art of thinking as well as the art of communicating in order to create bridges between these two worlds that are too often separated. He is today media director of the Pôle Outre Mer of Télévisions.

Jean-Pierre Lemaire is a literature professor. He began publishing poetry in the 80s. He published around ten collections. In 1999, he received the grand prize from the Académie Française for his poetic work.
