Friday, April 3, 2009, at 21:00, at the headquarters of giuliese "Piazza Dante Club" in Piazza Dante Alighieri, 2 - the historic center of Giulianova.
Guests:
Sandro Galantini, journalist and historian
Pietro Ferrari, author
Walter De Berardinis, journalist http://www.giulianovanews.it/
What does it mean "medieval"? What does "revolutionary"? Pietro Ferrari if you ask sharp and engaging with this essay, and in his lucid and unforgiving critique of modernity, assumes and concludes that the Middle Ages and the Revolution are not historical or cultural phenomena more or less close to us. Categories are rather of the spirit.
How can we, then, reading the book of Peter Ferrari, the Revolution is a category of today and the past belongs to the Middle Ages? The Revolution against the Middle Ages is not the pamphlet of a nostalgic, argued the fee is quite strict and an intellectual who proposes a model, not only a world view that can restore a sense, be a sort of compass to the lost condition of man contemporary. Nihil novi, some would say: Massimo Fini has done something, and in many ways Marcello Veneziani and Franco Cardini have more writings mentioned similar thoughts and ideas. But Pietro Ferrari shows where the deception, reveals that the revolution has tactically and aggressively covered, giving voice to moments of history and memory that have been canceled for reasons that seem inexplicable to most and that are the very reasons of delirium relativism that pervades our times.
Pietro Ferrari was born in Giulianova (TE) in 1973. He graduated in Law at the University of Bologna, is a lawyer at the Court of Teramo.
He has published essays: The invisible chips (Upstream, Naples 2002), The cry of Europe (Tabula fates, Chieti 2003), Auto-da-fe of the West (Mark, Udine 2004) and the revolution against the Middle Ages (Solfanelli, Chieti, 2009).
