Abstract
Inspired by the “Almost Storming of Capitol Hill”, my paper sketches a phenomenon that I call post-reality or idioverse. I consider the. As “idioverse” I mean the degeneration of the idea of pluriverse which, in its turn, embodies the reaction against the risk that the idea of universe becomes mono-versal, that is universal in the worst sense: potentially totalitarian. My point is that currently we are facing with the risk that the pluri-verse degenerates into the general idiotism of a worldview that every single person builds according to his/her own liking, i.e. a narrative/worldview based on a principle that, according to Luigi Pirandello, we could call "It is So (If You Think So)".I documenti in SFERA sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
