EX ORIENTE: MITHRA AND THE OTHERS.


In September (6-8.9.2017), together with the Annual Meeting of the Italian Society of Archeoastronomy (S.I.A.), an International Workshop will take place in Rome (Sapienza University) on the theme:

Ex Oriente: Mithra and the others. 
Astronomical contents in the cults of Eastern origin in ancient Italy 
and Western Mediterranean

The following is the Abstract I sent - about ten days ago - to give a lecture at this Int. Workshop. I've just known this evening that the Abstract wasn't accepted and that therefore I'll be not allowed to illustrate my point of view about: 
Astronomical events and contents at the origin and in the doctrine of the Christianity.

Die ORTSCHAFT des DENKENS von Martin HEIDEGGER or the TOPOLOGY of HEIDEGGER's BEING

 The following Abstract is the one I sent recently in Messkirch for a seminar to be held there from July 14th to July 16th.

Title in English:
'Topos'/Ortschaft of Heidegger's Sein was the zodiacal belt of constellations, where Being occurrences (Enteignisse or Ereignisse) take place every twenty years ('from generation to generation')

The Abstract was initially accepted and the conference I should have given was planned for Friday July14th, at 20:00 till 21:30, with the German short title

Die Ortschaft des Denkens von Martin Heidegger

as you can see in the program I got by the workshop promoters. 

I was obviously very happy to have the possibility to explain to a qualified audience and with enough time at disposal the original hermeneutical proposal of mine, astronomically grounded. But this happiness lasted only some days ... about two weeks ago I was informed that in the organizing committee they weren't unanimous to let me the delivering of the speech: my lecture was therefore cancelled from the program. That's why I publish now the Abstract here in my blog, hoping to have - as soon as possible - the possibility to give this lecture elsewhere in the world.
