The Black Box and Other Unnecessary Things. Second Brief Diary: Essays

New

Umberto Eco once again takes on the task of stimulating our brain's work, using perhaps the most pleasant tool for such purposes – humor. In the book 'The Black Box and Other Unnecessary Things. Second Brief Diary' (published in Italy... under the title Il secondo diario minimo), his ironic essays on a wide range of topics are published, including not only amusing parodies but also, as the professor himself says, 'just jokes, devoid of any moralizing subtext,' and he adds: 'However, I see no need for any ideological justifications; it will be enough to simply repeat the words of Aldo Palazzeschi: 'Let me be entertained.'
