Riassunto

This collection of essays by Gregor Sebba (1905-1985) reflects the curiosity and insight of his mind. The range of topics is wide, including philosophy and the history of ideas, literature and art; yet there is a single underlying theme - human creativity and the search for truth - pursued along paths as diverse as Greek tragedy, Eric Voegelin's concept of order in history, and the poetry of Rainer Maria Rilke and T.S.Eliot. The book consists of 20 essays, dived into five sections. The essays cover a period of three decades from 1950 to 1981, and include two previously unpublished pieces and two translated from German.
