Le fiamme e la ragione tells about one of the most tragic pages of Italian cultural history - the trial and death of philosoper, cosmologist, writer, and priest, Giordano Bruno. According to Augias, the execution offers an opportunity for reflection that should not be missed by atheists, agnostics, and catholics living in a nonclerical State.
