Starting from the images of the myth of the city of Shamballa, this essay intends to examine its sources and above all the power of vision which, by combining different exegetical lines, ends up assuming complete existential indifference with respect to the traditions of extraction. From this change of perspective derives a different vision of reality, a “today” gifted by instantaneous knowledge and simultaneous communication have become realities that prove more advanced than our actual progress in terms of awareness. The city manifests itself in this light in its ontological component, as a breeding ground for souls. This function, so simple and intuitive, is however far from being realized, so much so that we have to declare that we need an intellectual awakening, a liberation from oppression, both of religions and capitalism, that the ecological symptoms make us understand more and more clearly as a condition that can no longer be postponed and for which a spiritual and non-violent struggle must be fought, the only one that can lead to an effective and lasting expansion of consciousness, such as to assume the density, strength and substance of an idea of cosmopolitan, universal citizenship.

In this essay, I explore Cassirer’s brief discussion of utopia in An Essay on Man, as likely built upon Kant’s theory of genius as from the Critique of Judgment. This exploration of Cassirer’s theory of utopia lays the groundwork to argue that a utopia is the dynamic product (work) of the “ethical genius,” a work that advances culture by luring it, via ideal imaginaries, to new realms of possibility for ethical advancement. Utopias have their dangers and limits, but nevertheless have a critical role to play in improving our ethical life.

Alexandrian Seashells is a poetic collection of Mona Latif-Ghattas, where we try to study the dream image of the sea; poet recounts her memories of youth, stranded as seashells on the beach. Hypotyposis is the best figure of speech that reflects poetic hallucinated impulses, symbolic elusive relationships or inexpressible feelings. Essentially descriptive, this figure is based on the observation of feelings, sensations or elusive impressions. It transmits the fleeting thoughts by its dynamic appearance. The multiple facets of hypotyposis, spread through the space-time items, include figures attached either to land, desert, beaches or fluid figures that derive their value from the sea. The hypotyposis is able to connect the lived memories with the emotional effect produced by the moment.
FR
Écailles Alexandrines, recueil poétique de Mona Latif-Ghattas, où l’on tente d’étudier l’image onirique de la mer; la poétesse y retrace ses souvenirs de jeunesse, ramassés comme des coquillages échoués sur les plages. L’hypotypose est la meilleure figure qui reflète les élans poétiques hallucinés, les rapports symboliques qui soulignent l’inexprimable. Essentiellement descriptive, elle se fonde sur l’observation des sentiments, des sensations ou des impressions mobiles et changeants. Les multiples facettes de l’hypotypose se répandent à travers les éléments spatiaux, regroupant les figures attachées soit à la terre, au désert, aux plages ou les figures fluides. L’hypotypose tresse les souvenirs vécus avec les états d’âme produits par l’effet du moment.
