THE COURAGE

Once the courage-in the sense of physical courage-it was just the work of human, then the machines have taken over: no longer the armed warrior of his own hands, but with machine guns, tanks, flamethrowers, fighter bombers. Something like what happens now with technology: up to thirty years ago it was necessary to speak, write, call, therefore exposing yourself. Nowadays you can communicate, it is encouraged to do so, without a human interface, therefore without risk, without fear of compromise. And the human virtues are delegated to what human is not. So, the courage and the fortitude that is inherently ingrained are becoming more and more a virtual abstraction, devoid of sense, for men and women who wander without a compass, teen blinded by present and old took in memory. In order to face today's largest social urgency», «Paolo Crepet offers to parents, educators and especially those "digital natives" who are about to explore their lives in a society a "hypothetical inventory ' of some hyper facets of courage in various areas of human experience (the courage to educate, to say no, to start over, to be afraid, to write, to imagine, to create ...). An inventory designed as an Association of ideas, a ' brain-storming ', a useful exercise to stimulate adults and not yet adults to regain strength of nerve and stamina that life every day asking us. But in these pages Crepet speaks especially of another and more ambitious form of courage. What we have to come up with to create a new world, if we don't want to have others to invent it for us; What young people need to rediscover not to find himself miserable and resigned to stop believing in their dreams; what everyone must find in themselves to begin a Renaissance ideal and ethical manner. Because, in the end, courage is the magic opportunity that allows you to understand the present and build the future.
