In this context, the protagonist of the play embodies the essence of renaissance, a cultural turn suspended between an ancient order of wisdom and social harmony, and a new order of inclusion and equality.

In this context, the protagonist of the play embodies the essence of renaissance, a cultural turn suspended between an ancient order of wisdom and social harmony, and a new order of inclusion and equality.File in questo prodotto:
