Se pensate che qualcosa scritto più di 2000 anni fa non possa essere attuale, vogliamo smentirvi. Mitici, incontro con i miti greci, è un viaggio comico tra i miti greci riletti con un occhio contemporaneo e con uno sguardo divertente su quei temi etici, filosofici e psicologici, con i quali uomini e donne di ogni epoca si sono sempre confrontati e che sono centrali ancora oggi. Perchè per capire chi siamo e dove stiamo andando, bisogna sapere da dove siamo venuti... E con il sorriso è più facile!

Antropologi e scienziati non sono mai riusciti a mettersi d'accordo sulle razze umane. Oggi sappiamo perché. Partendo dalle Leggi Razziali del '38, dagli studi dei naturalisti del '700 e '800, fino alle analisi recenti del DNA, vedremo perché il concetto di razza è una lente deformante che non ci permette di cogliere il significato delle differenze fra esseri umani.

Il Diritto ha una missione nobilissima ma assai tormentata. Alle spalle due grandi archetipi: da un lato il primo tribunale, l'areopago dell'Antica Grecia, che, secondo la fondatrice Atena, "agirà secondo giustizia, al di fuori delle passioni e sottrarrà Oreste dalla furia delle persecuzioni", dall'altro la Giustizia, fanciulla bendata, imparziale, con la bilancia in una mano e la spada nell'altra.

Il mito. Múthos, "racconto" e insieme "parola". Narrazioni favolose che mescolano il divino e l'umano, il quotidiano e lo straordinario, in un continuo gioco di richiami mai concluso in se stesso, dall'antichità classica ad oggi, che intreccia saperi, saggezze e immaginazione.
