To wonder about the human condition is normal practice for scientists, writers, sociologists, and experts from various disciplines and studies carried out for many reasons. Do it for a decade analyzing and investigating especially the aesthetic dimension has led to a result of "a remarkable synthesis (...) which represents an important contribution to the redefinition the concept of aesthetics and creativity "as he writes in the afterword by Victor Welsh" Beauty and the Mind. " And Welsh, of studies and important they will be seen that, along with others, the neuroscientist who discovered the existence of mirror neurons. Author of the essay "Beauty and the Mind", 250 pages full of studies, analysis, observations and reflections of great interest is Ugo Morelli scholar and professor of psychology of creativity and innovation, besides of Psychology of work and organization and editor of Corriere Trentino. The book, published by Allemandi, will be in bookstores by mid-September, but an initial presentation, national, is scheduled Friday, August 27 Comano in Trentino copyright. Morelli in his latest work "is not afraid to cross disciplinary boundaries and fences" and, with great attention to the epistemological aspects (namely those concerning the relationship with oneself as a conscious entity to know and the know), he manages with great ability to put into dialogue with the philosophy of biology and psychoanalysis and the neurosciences. All
to explore the commonality between art and science, to investigate how "the ability of humans to express acts of beauty" may be attributed to the natural powers and how "the results of their operation" may part of their processes and phenomena of nature. What distinguishes human nature from nature generally understood? The perspective developed by Ugo Morelli begins with a fundamental question of why human beings are capable of conceiving and thinking about the aesthetics and knowledge as a right place and know what to think is the patrimony of the whole animal world? What is the distinction of human experience? And, in reference to knowledge and aesthetics, what is the point of combination and integration of science and philosophy? What mechanism allows the human species, a species which has become symbolic powers "only" one hundred thousand years ago, to rise by stopping and re-creating a link between the subject and the world, characteristic of aesthetic experience? As a capacity to shape products and give them a meaning that would of course not? The experience of creating and knowing, Morelli says, is in its fullest sense "view of reality as digit code" that refers to a further sense, to other possible worlds. But because the human being has access to the experience of creativity requires a voltage of a particular state that Morelli called "tension rinviante" where the adjective is understood as a movement of the preparation, prepare to something else. It is in this condition that Homo sapiens is recognized and becomes recognizable. Only through this tension, which is characteristic for the human species originated the relationship between the real world and the "possible" and only through "possible" the symbolic species stands. The real is the bond that allows homo to express himself well, going away from you, to explore different from him, until, no longer coincide with itself, Homo sapiens becomes a relationship. And just when the report "we create human", while we recognize "our incompleteness and our absence." And this is where the mind is powerfully into play as it is clear as a system that not only responds to internal or external stimuli, but through the reports, and select active strategies, making choices among infinite possibilities, create new contexts and destroys them, always fed by the imagination and fantasy, the lifeblood of capability to be built and Homo sapiens. Through "the tension rinviante"-Morelli writes - "we stop the practice and we will protrude above the existing one, the constant search for meaning." The creative aesthetic experiences analyzed in the essay by Morelli: artistic creation, the birth of scientific hypotheses, falling in love and love, the genesis of the sacred and the planning policy.
Fascinated by the beauty and everything that generates, creates and invents possible worlds, Ugo Morelli calls to his work table, two of the most creative poets: John Keats, which is recognized as an exemplary ability to pause in reflection "to recognize and acknowledge the world we create and the ability to continue to create and Joseph Brodsky has argued repeatedly that the urgent and important to choose between vulgarity and beauty, in a time where you get it from the vulgar mistress. "For a human being there is no other future except what promises art," writes Brodsky, Nobel prize for literature in 1987: studies and analysis in "Beauty and the Mind" just seem to lead us in that direction. "Beauty - Morelli writes - is not an individual matter. In addition to educational relationships that can support access to creativity, decisive policy to create conditions conducive to the affirmation of beauty. " Morelli argues that no area is exempt from un'educabilità mind, least of all because the political, the aim of policy should not be "to align the company to a pre-existing order," but through good management conflicts create, develop new solutions . And the conflict is a necessary evolution of experience in particular of imagination and creativity. E 'in a perspective of conflict that is part of "the aesthetic act" which, Morelli says, is nothing more than "a distancing conflict with the world which each of us is a part." Because aesthetic experience is manifested on the ridge between "being there and becoming."
Designing an "I" without a "we" now seems very outdated, since it is the relationship that builds and allows us to redefine the idea of \u200b\u200bourselves in relationship with the mind, the brain and the world. The human species is engaged with two symmetrical movements difficult and support from research more in-depth: the first is "to bring the mind into the body and brain, arguing that the mind is what the brain does (embodiment, incarnation), the second" seeks to put the mind in relation to others " bringing out this way, "excess" of evolution. Both of these movements, however, reminds us Ugo Morelli, constitute a true evolutionary leap and with the re-figuration of what it means to be human. " The understanding of the new perspective of the mind that the research field of neuro science require us is not easy. Just as it is easy for the human mind, change your mind.
