Meetings and conferences

With Sara Hejazi, anthropologist and researcher at the Centre for Religious Studies of the Bruno Kessler Foundation in Trento, the Jean Monnet Centre of the Faculty of Sociology of the University of Trento and the Al Farabi Kazakh National University in Kazakhstan.

In his talk, entitled 'Homo and other animals: a spiritual relationship from prehistory to today', he will focus on our relationship with the animal world between art and spirituality. Animals are one of the first subjects that human beings, starting more than 30,000 years ago, drew on the walls of ravines and cavities, but even today many questions remain about their symbolic and religious meanings.
