"LAUDATO SI' MI SIGNORE PER SORA ACQUA" THE GAZE OF FRANCESCO, MELTING GLACIERS.
With Simone Morandini Professor of Theology of Creation at the Theological Faculty of Triveneto (Padua).
PROGRAMME:
5.30 p.m.: at the Sala della Cultura.
Of water we live and die: its flowing through our personal existence and social life. If Francis of Assisi sings of it as a sister, physics reveals its no less fascinating properties.
The text proposes a journey through water, demanding and evocative, navigating between different disciplines. Thus, meanings and hopes emerge that revolve around it, in the variety of its dimensions - from the physical to the ecological to the explicitly religious, but also the economic and cultural. In the time of socio-environmental crisis that we call the Anthropocene, it is essential to rethink water, to rediscover its symbolic strength and vital power, to be inspired by new lifestyles.
Simone Morandini teaches Mathematics and Physics in a Venetian high school, lectures on the Theology of Creation at the Theological Faculty of Triveneto (Padua) and is a member of the CEI's “Custody of Creation” Group.
