2018br. Quale è il ruolo della filosofia in una società pervasa dalla tecnologia? Che cosa fa oggi un filosofo in un mondo dominato dalle conoscenze scientifiche? Immaginiamo che Democrito torni fra noi e, ormai anziano e malato, racconti il suo pensiero alla figlia. Gli episodi della sua vita quotidiana di uomo del XXI secolo sarebbero allora occasioni di riflessione, in cui le scienze e la filosofia dialogano fecondandosi reciprocamente. Galileo, Darwin e Einstein hanno mostrato che viviamo alla periferia dell'universo ma, a differenza degli altri esseri viventi a noi noti, abbiamo la capacità di meditare sulla nostra posizione nel cosmo. Il neo-Democrito ci guiderà in questi pensieri.

Robert Burton 1577-1640 went to Oxford in 1593 and never left possibly due to his bouts of depression. He wrote on the subject of melancholy to relieve his own mind of its burden and over the years put together the first psychiatric encyclopedia in the English language. Burton's satirical and discursive Anatomy analyses the causes symptoms and cures of melancholy bolstered by a wide range of quotations and is a literary as well as medical classic. First published in 1621 the book was reprinted with revisions three times during Burton's lifetime and numerous times since. It was a favorite of Dr. Johnson another sufferer of depression who told Boswell that this was "the only book that ever took him out of bed two hours sooner than he wished to rise.".
