Che cosa è il realismo? Che cosa intende dire chi si dichiara "realista" e a chi esattamente si contrappone? Siamo o dobbiamo essere davvero, in filosofia, nell'arte, in politica, più "realisti" di un tempo? In un rapido percorso nei dibattiti recenti sul tema, dal postmodernismo a oggi, Franca D'Agostini risponde con risolutezza e chiarezza a queste domande, smontando un certo numero di luoghi comuni, tanto diffusi quanto infondati. La prima parte del libro è un breve pamphlet destinato a difendere il realismo dalla confusione e dalla banalità a cui lo condannano molti suoi presunti estimatori. La seconda parte ricostruisce i dibattiti più interessanti, presenta alcuni realismi "realmente nuovi" di cui si parla poco o nulla in Italia. Associando alla perizia discussiva una profonda conoscenza del pensiero contemporaneo, D'Agostini ci ricorda che l'antirealismo non è mai esistito in filosofia: i fatti sono sempre stati, hegelianamente, "il vivente pane della ragione".

Summary

Have you ever encountered an underwater marching band, a pig in a bathing suit, a pet orangutan, or a witch in a hardware store? Have you ever sat with a skunk in a courtroom, shopped for a dinosaur, or conversed with a Bupple, a Wosstrus, a Violinnet, or a Celloon? You will have, once you've read this exuberant collaboration from Jack Prelutsky and his "partner in crime" James Stevenson.
The "reigning czars of silliness" have once again teamed up to bring readers an irresistible collection of poems that will have tongues twisting, imaginations soaring, and sides aching with laughter. The result is genius, indeed.
