Bruno Moroncini

Sette conversazioni come invito alla lettura di Pier Paolo Pasolini, che offrono e intrecciano motivi diversi per recepire le provocazioni sempre attuali del più importante intellettuale italiano del Novecento. Le discussioni aprono squarci sul suo rapporto con il Friuli e con la Roma di ieri e di oggi, sulla sua considerazione del corpo e del sacro, sul suo cinema e sull’impegno politico, nella consapevolezza che Pasolini è stato e rimane un poeta, nelle multiformi manifestazioni che la sua poesia ha assunto e che ci lascia in eredità, viva espressione del suo desiderio. Con la collaborazione di Piero Colussi, Massimo De Angelis, Luciano De Fiore, Gaetano Lettieri, Antonio Monda, Bruno Moroncini, Walter Tocci.

Jacques Lacan used authors and philosophical concepts in a very original manner in order to make clearer some aspects of psychoanalytical theory. The aim of this essay is to show how Heideggerian ontology is important in order to understand the way in which desire, which is basically lack, wait and vow according to Lacan, is transferred through generational chains. In other words, also using Marcel Mauss’s theses on the gift, this essay contributes to the topical discussion about the economic debt interpreted in the light of the Lacanian notion of symbolic debt. In the end, debt and gift are the key words to understand the human condition.

Against a hermeneutic reading of deconstruction, this essay attempts to prove how, on the contrary, Derrida’s thought opposes itself to the primacy of interpretation. In these terms it revalues Nietzsche’s thesis, according to which there are only interpretations and no facts, and Derrida’s one about nothing existing out of the text, just because this essay reads them as the specific ways both the philosophers use in their attempt to deny the existence of a single interpretation to act as a canon, and to reaffirm text’s independence from any attempt of metaphysical closure.
