MONSTROUSNESS IN MODERNITY, Stories, Practices, Meanings.
A fascinating (and slightly disturbing) journey into how modern culture has attempted to make sense of what deviates from the norm of so-called "normality."
In the Modern Age, the monster (from the Latin monstrare, to show, or monere, to warn) was not just a mistake of nature, but a divine message.
We will introduce the theme of monstrosity in modernity through stories, concrete cases, and social practices.
We will analyze how monsters were defined, interpreted, and treated, like collections of curiosities... Together, we will build a perspective on the different and the anomalous.
Speaker: Dr. Luca Sandri - Graduated in History of Philosophy at the University of Turin and professor at Unitre Condove
