Once Nietzsche said that human beings may be divided into two
categories: Apollonians and Dionysians*. By this the philosopher
meant that there are human beings a) who know what they are going
to do in the long-term future (what we now call the grant
application for the next 5 years), i. e. , Apollonians, and b) who
barely know what they are going to do tomorrow morning before
breakfast, i. e. , Dionysians. ** To organize a symposium, this
symposium in particular, a committee had to be formed either of
individuals sharing both Nietzschean characteristics or of
individuals possessing either characteristic. Considering the
rarity of the former type of subject, this organizing committee was
spontaneously formed by a typical sample of both types of
individuals. We first met in Perugia in 1988. Those of us who were
Apollonians had thus a chance to organize a programme. The
Dionysians knew what was going to happen to them, but, of course,
did not know yet how to cope with it. They duly did so every day of
the meeting, after breakfast. The organizers decided that it would
be a useful exercise to assemble experts having different
perspectives but all pursuing a very rapidly developing aspect of
cell biology. They also hoped that these selected Apollonians and
Dionysians would not merely recount their results but try to
project the future through active interchanges of ideas and
opinions with other attendees.
