At home we have already received the Galileo comic written by Jordi Bayarri and belonging to the Scientific Collection. The play Galileo, the messenger of the stars, It has dimensions of 24 × 17 centimeters, more than 40 full color interior pages and cardboard binding. We remember that this project was promoted from Lánzanos and at home we decided to acquire it.
He we loved comic. The little one and I have read it and although many concepts escape it, the truth is that it has understood Galileo's problems with the Inquisition and with the Church of the time very little open to admit that science was driving a spectacular revolution and that I think we still live. In my case, the comic has been tremendously exciting and I loved how Jordi treats Galileo with great sensitivity.
And is that the Galileo who presents the comic is very aware that the lessons transmitted by his father would allow him to advance in the knowledge and explanation of the world by building new theories. I loved watching how Galileo got excited about his discoveries and also it has endowed him with a very tender expression that makes you quickly empathize with him.
Besides, and that's what I loved, it's the drawing with which he opens the book, and that serves to illustrate the article. Galileo can be seen on the rooftops looking for an explanation of reality looking at the stars. And the book closes the same, with an old Galileo, punished by the Church and from his house contemplates the stars satisfied after his life dedicated to the experimentation and dissemination of science.
We are waiting for Jordi to continue writing and promoting projects with Lánzanos. We will be very attentive because the next planned volume is Newton. In the meantime I recommend the works in addition so that they are encouraged to be part of the libraries of the libraries of the schools.
