Ugo Spirito (1896-1979) è un pensatore unico nel suo genere. La sua biografia sintetizza un intero secolo, il Novecento. È anche sua la parabola compiuta dalla filosofia europea tra positivismo, idealismo, esistenzialismo, strutturalismo e postmoderno. Allievo di Giovanni Gentile, interpretò nel modo più originale l’attualismo. Fu sempre eccentrico e radicale nelle proprie tesi. Durante il fascismo, al quale aderì, sostenne il superamento di liberalismo e socialismo tramite l’istituzione della corporazione proprietaria e di un «comunismo gerarchico». La sua città ideale contemplava una comunità dove tutti erano lavoratori e sovrani. Non fu però utopista. Come un sismografo registrò ogni singola scossa del terremoto rappresentato dallo sviluppo scientifico e tecnologico, che alla fine del ventesimo secolo ha prodotto la globalizzazione, di cui Spirito può essere considerato il profeta.

Ugo Spirito (1896-1979) is a unique thinker. His biography synthesizes an entire century, the twentieth century. The parabola accomplished by European philosophy between positivism, idealism, existentialism, structuralism and postmodernism is also his. A pupil of Giovanni Gentile, he interpreted actualism in the most original way. He was always eccentric and radical in his own theses. During fascism, which he joined, he advocated the overcoming of liberalism and socialism through the establishment of the proprietary corporation and a “hierarchical communism.” His ideal city contemplated a community where all were workers and sovereigns. He was no utopian, however. Like a seismograph he recorded every single tremor of the earthquake represented by scientific and technological development, which at the end of the 20th century produced globalization, of which Spirit can be considered the prophet.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
