Abstract
The image of Bersabea (Invisible Cities) oscillates conceptually along the axis of the polarity between the most precious and the most vile of materials, just as the song Via del Campo suggests the saving contradiction between diamonds and manure. Both Calvino and De Andre take part in a tradition of antagonistic thought, where the conceptual evolution of the diamonds/manure antonymy is actually deeply rooted in some critical passages of two works, More’s Utopia and Galilei’s Dialogue Concerning the Two Chief World Systems, which founded both the tradition of modern utopia and the scientific method.
