«Una certa idea di Europa» is the essay by George Steiner, published by Garzanti Libri in paperback (96 pages, in Italian).
Steiner conceives Europe as a place of memory made of cafés, streets and squares dedicated to poets and scientists, and of a landscape transformed by human hand. Against ethnic hatred, nationalism and regionalisms, the essay warns against the cultural homogenization brought by globalization and defends diversity as an essential trait of European identity.
It is the third edition within the I piccoli grandi libri collection, published on November 16, 2017.
For readers interested in European culture, humanism and sociopolitical essays.
