It also explores the roots of the clown figure - active since the XVIII century in England, in Spain, in the Italian Commedia dell'Arte - as well as the ones of clown-therapy and of the clown as an operator in the health environment: that is as doctor clown. The clown-therapy - or geleatology (from the Greek language ghelos and logos) - is by now well known like a branch that use art to promote health, through a metaphoric and therapeutic language able to reach immediately the people.
