La Fortezza delle Idee -Nietszche & Marx

  • Casa del Boia 10 Via dei Bacchettoni Lucca, Toscana, 55100 Italy (map)

Marcello Veneziani returns to L'Augusta with a compelling monologue on two heavyweights of philosophical thought: Friedrich Nietzsche and Karl Marx.

5 May 1882. The euphoric author of Dawn and The Gay Science and the elderly, beardless revolutionary, now in his twilight years, meet in Nice. Both have just returned from voyages across the Mediterranean in search of sunshine, the South and good health. The following year, Marx would die and Zarathustra would be born. Then madness would descend upon Nietzsche.

Starting with a narrative device, Marcello Veneziani embarks on an extraordinary undertaking, somewhere between biography and a philosophical journey: retracing the lives, as reflected in each other, of the two most controversial and, at the same time, most influential thinkers of the modern era.
