UMBERTO GALIMBERTI
Umberto Galimberti is one of the most authoritative and respected voices in the Italian philosophical and intellectual scene. Born in Monza in 1942, Galimberti has dedicated his career to exploring fundamental themes for understanding the complexity of modern society, such as the relationship between technology, ethics, religion and the human condition. A prolific author, teacher and psychoanalyst, his thought has profoundly influenced the Italian and international cultural debate.
Umberto Galimberti's intellectual journey begins with the study of philosophy. A graduate of the Catholic University of Milan, Galimberti then specialized in psychology, acquiring skills in psychoanalysis under the influence of the ideas of Carl Gustav Jung. This dual training, which merges philosophy and psychology, is the basis of his interdisciplinary approach, which distinguishes him from many other contemporary philosophers.
One of the key elements of his work is the analysis of Western thought and the condition of man in modernity. Galimberti explores how technology and science have transformed not only our way of life, but also our perception of the world and ourselves.
Galimberti continues to be a reference figure for anyone who wants to understand the profound dynamics of contemporary society. His works, characterized by a rare ability to combine philosophy, psychology and social criticism, offer precious tools to reflect on how to live in an increasingly complex and alienating world.
His invitation is clear: it is necessary to radically rethink our relationship with technology, with progress and with values, to rediscover the profound meaning of the human being and his existence. Galimberti reminds us that philosophy is not only an intellectual exercise, but a necessary practice to understand and deal with the world around us.
