Trust in the Age of Fragility

Building on the central themes of Anime fragili (Einaudi), Matteo Saudino’s lectio magistralis explores vulnerability as a defining feature of existence. Through a dialogue between ancient philosophy and the present, the author shows how uncertainty, fear, and limitation can be transformed into opportunities for awareness and responsibility. The talk invites a rethinking of identity, relationships, and civic engagement, recognizing fragility not as a weakness, but as an authentic possibility for human growth.
