Nello specchio del tempo il riverbero dell’Umano | Angelo Floramo | TEDxUdine

Il tempo è una dimensione sinestetica totale che investe i sensi e li attraversa, sublimandoli, trasfigurandoli e rendendoli vivi: lo si può assaggiare, ascoltare, toccare, annusare. Perfino vedere. E' la cadenza dell'esametro latino, che rievoca il battito del cuore o il piede pulsato in terra che ritma il passo della danza degli sciamani; è lo spazio vuoto tra il dito di Adamo e quello di Dio nella Genesi della Cappella Sistina dipinta da Michelangelo; è il bacio non dato che Keats canta nell' "Ode su di un'urna Greca". Lasciamoci incantare da Angelo Floramo.
Time is a synesthetic and totalizing dimension, that runs over and through the five senses, elevating, transfiguring, and reviving them: indeed it is possible to taste, hear, touch and even smell time. Even see it. What is time? It is the cadence of the Latin hexameter, that evokes the heart beat or the foot pulsing on the ground at the rhythm of the shamans'dance; it is the empty space between the fingers of God and Adam in the Sistine Chapel painted by Michelangelo; it is the nongiven kiss that Keats sings in the "Ode of a Greek urn". Let us fascinated by Angelo Floramo.

He teaches History and Literature at the "Magrini-Marchetti" in Gemona del Friuli and works as an expert of the subject with different research groups related to the University of Trieste.
