Le parole sono virtualmente infinite, immaginiamoci le connessioni e le storie dietro e oltre le parole! E dopo la prima stagione, "Parole Preziose" scova altre decine di parole, leggende, mitologie, collegamenti, e nel dialogo tra Rick DuFer e Roberto Mercadini si dipanano ingarbugliati e ispiranti filamenti di significato e senso, tra parole come "Spirito" ed "Eternità", "Maschera" e "Demone": universi, dietro e dentro le parole, preziosi come solo le idee sanno essere.

Dietro le parole si nascondono interi universi: parole come "evoluzione" o "apocalisse" nascondono molto più di ciò che mostrano. Termini quali "felicità" e "vita" sono molto più ricche dell'uso quotidiano che ne facciamo. Roberto Mercadini e Rick DuFer raccontano quegli universi e quella ricchezza, nel tentativo di innamorarsi e far innamorare del linguaggio, delle idee e delle parole. Parola - Nome - Incantesimo: Le parole sono tutte preziose: la magia intorno ai nomi, gli incantesimi che li fanno vivere, e c'è molto di più, dietro le parole, di ciò che esse dicono.

This history is made up of long periods of ignorance and confusion, punctuated once an age by a brilliant thinker who puts it all together. These few tower over the ordinary masses, and in the traditional account, it is to them that we owe science in its entirety. This belief is wrong.
