I always admired the joke Eco makes that Simonini "is a racist-he hates everyone". Since Simon hates everyone-he does not perceive himself to be a bigot. He holds all of mankind in contempt. This is and always has been a tempting delusion of certain kinds of people to rationalize their sociopathy. The irrationality of reasoning like "I can't be a racist if I hate everyone equally".
Eco thinks the Protocols are a forgery - but all the same, I think he loves the esoteric. The meeting of a secret Jewish society in a Prague Cemetery is just a delicious conceit. But I suppose modern mythology like the old stuff, has its artistic merit.

I bet Prof. Umberto Eco has hidden some sort of code into this book. Perhaps into the food ingredients lists :)
He is a professor of semiotics lol
I love this discussion.
Very inspiring.
His description of the Jesuits is incredibly accurate.
He said that we despised Italian politics and admired the American one. I wonder what would Eco say today about Trump and the American republic?
Brilliant man.

In another video he refers to Roger Ackroyd by Agatha Christie.
Is there foucault at 38:52 ? LOL
eco destroyed that militant atheist 34:00
He didn't, he was an atheist.

He does not think. The protocols is a forgery.And if you read the book, or follow Mr. Eco's essaus, he mocks what you call the exoteric

Umberto Eco huwa wieħed mill-akbar kittieba ta 'kull żmien!

If an old lady dresses as a girl it's a creepy horror movie.
Ovviamente in Italia non se l'è filato nessuno....
I wonder if she could have asked more stupid questions.
Mandrogni!
Yahweh was the god of war in israel, so what.
Huwa jsemmi Dante u Homer. Imma inħoss Mr Eco wkoll mixjiet ma Petrarch, Boccaccio, u ħafna oħrajn.
