Imparando da Vico. Quarant’anni di riflessioni
TraducciĂłn del inglĂ©s por Pablo Badillo O’FarrellLa filosofĂa y la retĂłrica (la retĂłrica considerada Ă©ticamente, en un espĂritu auto-crĂtico) no son antagonistas,
sino aliadas y guĂas para la vida. La retĂłrica es la corporeizaciĂłn en el lenguaje, y tambiĂ©n en otros sistemas
semiĂłticos, de lo que motiva a la mayorĂa de la gente, lo que une lĂłgica y pasiĂłn y Ă©tica. Una de las esperanzas
de Vico es que filosofĂa y retĂłrica, nuestros poderes racionales e imaginativos, se usen Ă©ticamente, para el bien
vivir en sociedad. El Autor interpreta la valĂa del mensaje educacional y social de Vico, cuyo compromiso permanece
como algo que ahora –en estos tiempos tecnológicos– necesitamos profundamente.According to the Author’s experience, philosophy and rhetoric (rhetoric considered ethically, in a selfcritical
spirit) are not antagonists, but allies and guidelines for life. Rhetoric is the embodiment in language, and

Vico’s hopes is that philosophy and rhetoric, our rational and our imaginative powers, may be used ethically, for
the improvement of life in society. The Author interprets the value of the educational and social message of Vico,
whose commitments remain something that nowadays—in these technological times—we are in deep need of.Filosofia e retorica (retorica considerata eticamente, in uno spirito autocritico) non sono antagonisti,

della vita in società . L’Autore interpreta il valore del messaggio educativo e sociale di Vico, il cui impegno resta

Henry David Thoreau and Health in Nature (Flyer)
As if he had always been looking to the future, Thoreau’s idea of health remains astonishingly relevant. He senses the danger of environmentally-linked and environmentally-caused illness. He promotes wellness of body, mind, and spirit together, which achieves harmony with nature through diet, exercise, sensory contact, and ethical self-reflection. The idea of human health in relation to nature informs all that he wrote and appears repeatedly for two decades throughout his Journal. Yet, he doesn’t devote a whole book, single chapter, or complete essay to it exclusively, perhaps because health and nature connect to so many other concerns. Instead, health linked to nature permeates his entire experience as a form of personal ecology
