The book Bruno Meucci (comunità San Leolino) has been presented at Gonzaga University
from Toscana Oggi del May 26th, 2013
Since its inception, the philosophy itself the question of how we should live a man who desires the good. Philosophical knowledge, as understood the ancients, was not only a theoretical knowledge, able to interpret the world, but also a practical wisdom which guided concretely the life of men. In this ideal of "good life", that is rich with meaning and value, the current also draws a current of philosophical reflection that had the merit of attracting attention back to the ancient concept of "self-care". Taking care of yourself has now become a vital necessity for the citizens of the Third Millennium, men who feel abandoned by the political, religious and cultural and struggling to find points of reference outside of strictly subjective dimension. On this issue there was a meeting organized by the Community of San Giuliano Ladolfi Leolino and the Editor, at Gonzaga University in Florence, Friday, May 17, with the participation of Marco Vannini, Maurizio Schoepflin and Carmelo Mezzasalma, entitled "Care of self. The contribution of philosophy".
