From which French philosopher's work did John Maus derive the title of the album whose positive response caused him to grow more widely accepted as an outsider artist?
John Maus John Maus (born February 23, 1980) is an American musician, singer, songwriter, composer, and academic from Minnesota. An early collaborator of Ariel Pink, he has released several albums that incorporate elements of 1980s synth-pop, post-punk, and Medieval music. He is a former professor of philosophy at the University of Hawaii and his intellectual pursuits are reflected in his style and approach to music. His first two albums, "Songs" (2006) and "Love Is Real" (2007), generally drew negative reviews upon release. After the positive response to 2011's "We Must Become the Pitiless Censors of Ourselves", Maus grew more widely accepted as an outsider artist, and there was a critical reevaluation of his earlier work.
