Lexicon of the Daily Verb brings together a series of articles published during the 1950s in the journal Réforme. These manifesto texts are the embryos of books to come. From The Garden of Babylon, to The Planet and the Canton, by way of Tristes Campagnes and The End of the Landscape, Bernard Charbonneau acquired the conviction that this century would be both – and for the same reasons – that of totalitarianism and the destruction of nature. This position would guide his way of describing the evolution of the world and the landscapes that surround it; it would be the common thread of his career as a thinker and geographer. Bernard Charbonneau denounced the ravages of intensive agriculture and industry, devouring natural resources and polluting, while going beyond the strict framework of the ecological question. His thinking extends to all aspects of modern society based on the principle of growth and development, whether it is declared "sustainable" or not: bureaucracy, the ideology of work, the division of tasks, the media, education and the school system, the elevation of performance and competition to the rank of values.
