In 'Elogio della calvizie', Synesius of Cyrene offers a classic and provocative work that challenges the aesthetic conventions of his time. Written sixteen centuries ago, this text not only defends baldness with wit and erudition, but also invites the reader to reflect on divergent thinking and self-acceptance in the face of social standards. This edition, published by Luni Editrice, features a careful translation and a prologue that contextualizes the figure of Synesius, a fascinating thinker of antiquity. It is an essential read for those who enjoy classical literature and essays that explore philosophy from an original and timeless perspective.
