GIUSEPPE CAPOGRASSI: DEL NIHILISMO A LA ESPERANZA. UN CAMINO A RECORRER HOY

Abstract

In the current context of a nihilism that tends to establish itself as insurmountable horizon of our time, it is urgent to show that it is not. To do this, there is nothing better than examining the experience of men who have managed to go to the bottom of the path of nihilism and rediscover their humanity. Giuseppe Capograssi is one of them. The life and work of this brilliant, 20th century philosopher of Law are permeated by his awareness that dependency, sadness and melancholy are the same structure of the self, the soil in which, thanks to an encounter, hope may flourish.
