Darwin

Chiarelettere editore, September 2016, pp.128

A counter story in the manner of Dario Fo of the greatest scientist of all times Charles Darwin. The reconstruction of a scientific finding, the theory of the evolution of species, than concerns all of us and is still controversial to this day.

In a fantastic story that alternates between popular science and unpublished and comical autobiographical documents, Dario Fo retraces the convoluted journey of Charles Darwin’s studies, bringing to life the richness and charm of a unique character. Based on the letters that the scientist exchanged with his contemporaries and testimonials from his time, and the books that were subsequently published and that refuted his theories, Fo tackles a controversial theme, that of the evolution of spices, a real attack on all the finalist and determinist theories exposed in the Bible. An extremely contemporary issue that is at the centre of a debate that still rages today, dividing religion and science.

Dario Fo

Dario Fo (1926-2016) graduated from the Accademia delle Belle Arti di Brera in Milano, and emerged in Italy’s cultural circles, especially those linked to the theatre, where he became a great maestro thanks to his strong satirical skills and the farcical nature of his texts. This signature style characterized his entire career, which culminated in 1997 when he was awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature. The public in Italy and abroad has always welcomed the political satire and the folk backdrop that dominated all of his works.
