  The Uncertainty of Will. A Discussion with Professor Lorenzo Zucca (King's College London). ABSTRACT: This interview, hosted by  Linda Cianci (Lindagine) , with  Professor Lorenzo Zucca , full professor in Costitutional Law and Philosophy at King's College London, delves into his academic work in progress: "The Uncertainty of Will".   The discussion traverses foundational questions in legal philosophy, including the relationship between law and morality, power and knowledge, the fragility of institutional legitimacy, and the epistemic crises that underlie constitutional conflict. Drawing from the traditions of poetic wisdom (Giambattista Vico), value pluralism and tragic dramaturgy, Professor Zucca argues for the role of literature in shaping legal consciousness. Particular attention is given to how the Bard’s plays—such as The Merchant of Venice , King Lear , Measure for Measure , and Coriolanus —reveal tensions between justice and mercy, power and legitimacy...

  Shakespeare and the Law: Legal talks with Prof. M. Kramer (Part 1 ) ~ Lindagine.it   ABSTRACT: This interview, hosted by Linda Cianci (Lindagine), features Professor Matthew Kramer — one of the most esteemed legal philosophers and a full professor at Cambridge University. It delves into the complex relationship between the Bard’s plays (W. Shakespeare) and the law, with a particular focus on the concept of justice. Several of Shakespeare’s most renowned plays — The Merchant of Venice, Hamlet, Julius Caesar, and Measure for Measure — are examined to demonstrate not only the enduring relevance of classical literature in approaching legal themes, but also how the law can be used both as an instrument of fairness and as a tool of power and control. This duality calls for continuous awareness and reflection.  Through the reading and analysis of selected acts and scenes, the conversation addresses profound questions about human nature — a central theme in Shakespeare’s work —...

Oltre ogni ragionevole dubbio ~ Lindagine.it

Vagherai per eterni mondi, ma non vagamente Ti fermerà la gente, la guiderai. Arriveranno tempeste, le supererai. Quando il rumore sarà foschia per la tua mente, ti rifugerai, ti ricaricherai. Tra lampi di genio, non sarai più ingenuo. Ancor prima delle vette del grattacielo,  ti crederai, ti ricostruirai. Che sai che non c’è podio senza un po’ di odio: in questo simposio, quanta vita sprecai? Imparerai a sopportare le schegge, senza supporto né legge; fuori da ogni "gregge", ti fortificherai. Abbandonerai ogni sentiero, distruggerai il trono sopporterai il vuoto finché non ti perdonerai. Per ogni ostacolo senza guida,  per ogni passo o inciampo nel buio della riuscita capirai dei perché della vita, ti ripagherai. Condurrai.
