La grande frattura | Edoardo Prati | TEDxBustoArsizio

Edoardo Prati revisits the Stoic concept of "governing oneself," connecting it to the need to own one's identity in order to face the uncertainty of the outside world. Modern man, unlike the ancients, experiences an internal fracture and is unsure of who he is. This awareness, while not very reassuring, represents a new truth in modern psychoanalysis. In an eternal nature made of a mosaic in which everyone, from ancient poets to contemporary writers, is part of a continuous chain, love remains the force that moves and connects people. Edoardo Prati is a young enthusiast of classical studies who has found an innovative and dynamic way to share his passion on popular social media. From ancient Greece to Rome, to the great modern thinkers, Edoardo explores a vast time span, offering his followers profound and stimulating food for thought. His journey is characterized by a multidisciplinary approach: in addition to literary classics, he is interested in philosophy, history, art, and music, creating cultural bridges that connect different eras and demonstrate the relevance of ancient thought. His skill lies in making complex topics accessible, stimulating the curiosity and interest of his audience.
