The philosopher Giulio Giorello died. Conte: 'Italy loses a great thinker'

The philosopher Giulio Giorello died in Milan at 75 years of age: he was born in the Lombard capital on 14 May 1945. He was a pupil of Ludovico Geymonat and was his successor in the chair of Philosophy of Science at the Milan State University.
    He had been hospitalized for the coronavirus about a month ago at the Polyclinic from which he had been discharged for about ten days. In the past few days his situation had worsened. He had married three days ago with his partner Roberta Pelachin. 

As he himself had explained in an article where he maintained the usual irony on the Corriere della Sera, of which he was a regular collaborator, he had been hospitalized because of the coronavirus for a couple of months at the Policlinico. Finally discharged about ten days ago he returned home with great satisfaction among his beloved books. Unfortunately, after the first few days passed serenely, health problems returned. It quickly worsened - everything suggests to the doctors that it was complications of the virus even if the analyzes will determine it - until it was understood that there was nothing more to do: three days ago he married his partner . He had no children. Of his inexhaustible energy the work he still carried out, even at an important age, as editorial director of the series of Philosophy of Science for Raffaello Cortina Editore testify.

In a tweet the premier Giuseppe Conte wrote "Giulio Giorello is deceased. Refined philosopher, epistemologist, great lover of questions concerning the" method "of science. He also reflected intensely on ethics, politics, religion. Italy loses a great thinker , never banal. We still have its dense pages. "
