This book presents a starting point to reflect on the role of symbols in our life, in a progression in which past, present and future merge together within a space whose borders are much more diffuse than what we are used to believing.
Why do some images have symbolic value and others do not? What are the similarities between certain symbols emerging from different cultures, distant both in space and time?
From primitive drawings to modern logos, all symbols have aspects in common: they are present in every society, awake deep emotions and, according to this book, could provide access to a higher level of consciousness which we are still learning to decode.
"Symbol and emotion" contains striking images which add value by themselves and bring an emotional approach to the historical and mythical events presented. It is an inspired work on communication, addressed to anyone interested in exploring the interrelated role of symbols and emotions in the past, present and future of humanity.
