26th October, "Ad Alta Voce" at MEIS

“Ad Alta Voce”,the festival organized by Coop Alleanza 3.0, takes place every year in symbolic places, urban spaces to meet and confront the voices and thoughts of contemporary authors.

The theme of the 2018 edition is “Origins”. Friday, October 26, at 10.30, the theologian Vito Mancuso, the physicist Alessandro Treves and the psychologist and scholar of Cabalà Daniela Abravanel will dialogue on “The origins of life. Meeting between science and religious cultures“, introduced by Simonetta Della Seta, Director of the Museum. Lia Levi will read some passages taken from the “Genesis” and from her latest book “Questa sera è già domani”, winner of the V Premio Strega Giovani. Musical accompaniment by the Organic Trio (Massimo Mantovani on keyboards, Roberto Formignani on guitar and Roberto Poltronieri on drums).

Admission is free, but places are limited: to reserve yours, please click here.

Since 2001 “Ad Alta Voce” has involved about seven hundred authors and witnesses of civil commitment. It was born to take the reading outside the houses and propose it in the streets, in the squares, in the soup kitchens, in laundries and fish shops, in the places of solidarity and debate, in prisons and supermarkets, in theaters and in large arenas. Because a thinking community is an incubator of ideas, which confronts and enriches the ever-changing society.
