LUIGI ZOJA - BEAUTY: HISTORY AND PSYCHE

“We can go back to the oldest things we know about the relationship between humans and beauty, thinking of the Greeks, who are the root from which we come. And it is striking that, for the Greeks, justice and beauty were unified. One could not progress without the other one progressing, and so we can say that they were an aspiration towards equilibrium, elevation, excellence”.   Luigi Zoja is considered one the world’s most important and esteemed psychoanalysts, author of numerous books, one of which, Giustizia e Bellezza, has been translated into 14 languages and published in much of the world. Former president of the International Association for Analytical Psychology (IAAP), will today speak to us about Beauty.
