Gianni Biondillo"La costruzione del potere"Perché l'architettura non esisteMarsilio Editoriwww.marsilioeditori.it«Quando uno storico del tempo che verrà si accingerà ad esaminare le manifestazioni artistiche dell'epoca nostra, sarà certamente tormentato.» Così scriveva Giuseppe Pagano nel 1935. Gianni Biondillo, architetto di formazione e narratore per vocazione, getta uno sguardo nuovo, personale e politico, su qualcosa apparentemente sotto gli occhi di tutti, ma di cui, man mano che ci si avvicina, sfugge sempre l'essenza: l'architettura fascista. In questo enorme calderone infatti oggi rischia di rientrare di tutto. Come raccontare quel periodo senza cadere preda di banalizzazioni e pregiudizi? L'autore si addentra nelle vicende dell'epoca, segue carriere e destini di architetti, ricercatori, critici, designer, ingegneri, per lo più conosciuti solo agli addetti ai lavori. Da Roma a Milano, da Bolzano ad Asmara, da Como alle città dell'agro pontino, esplora tutti i risvolti di una foga edificatoria che ci ha consegnato un lascito enorme e problematico. Smontando i luoghi comuni e avanzando tesi spiazzanti, Biondillo racconta, con la competenza del saggista e la passione del romanziere, lo scontro generazionale tra i bolsi «accademici», sostenitori del monumentalismo, e la nuova generazione indomita dei talentuosi razionalisti. Se è vero che non esiste architettura che non sia di regime – perché a commissionare edifici pubblici è sempre il potere –, è però innegabile che non ha senso parlare di una generica «architettura fascista». Diversi sono gli stili, i protagonisti e il rapporto, conflittuale o condiscendente, di molti di essi con la classe dirigente. Così come differenti sono le strade per gestire questa pesante eredità. È giusto fare tabula rasa del passato e ricostruire sul nulla? O è arrivato il momento di aprire gli occhi sul paese che siamo stati e decidere finalmente quale vogliamo essere?Gianni Biondillo (Milano, 1966) è architetto e scrittore. Scrive per il cinema, il teatro e la televisione, pubblica interventi e editoriali su quotidiani e riviste nazionali. Tra i suoi numerosi romanzi e saggi, i più recenti sono: Pasolini. Il corpo della città (2022), Sentieri metropolitani (2022) e Quello che noi non siamo (2023), vincitore del Premio Bagutta 2024.IL POSTO DELLE PAROLEascoltare fa pensarewww.ilpostodelleparole.itDiventa un supporter di questo podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/il-posto-delle-parole--1487855/support.

Bloomsday è la commemorazione che si tiene annualmente il 16 giugno a Dublino ed in altre parti del mondo per celebrare lo scrittore irlandese James Joyce. La festività rievoca gli eventi dell'Ulisse, il suo romanzo più celebre, che si svolge in una sola giornata, il 16 giugno 1904, a Dublino. Festa laica in Irlanda, il nome “Bloomsday” deriva dal cognome del protagonista del romanzo, Leopold Bloom. Inoltre, il 16 giugno è il giorno in cui Joyce e quella che sarà la sua compagna per tutta la vita, Nora Barnacle, si dettero il primo appuntamento. La prima edizione del Bloomsday si è svolta nel 1950, in occasione del trentennale della pubblicazione dell'Ulisse, ad opera di alcuni scrittori che per celebrare tale ricorrenza ripercorsero le peregrinazioni di Leopold Bloom attraverso la città. L'idea dei festeggiamenti venne a un gruppo di scrittori irlandesi, amanti dell'opera joyciana, che decisero di ripercorrere l'itinerario tracciato dal romanzo, visitando i luoghi citati e leggendo in quei posti i brani del testo. I brani dall'ULISSE di JAMES JOYCE sono stati letti da Maximilian Lösch, Gian Paolo Guerini, Martin Streitberger, Johannes Brunner, Karl Mair e per la prima volta in Ladino, traduzione e voce di: Elide Mussner

Romina Casagrande"I quattro inverni"Garzanti Editorewww.garzanti.itImmaginate di scoprire che tutto ciò che sapete della vostra infanzia è falso. È quanto accade a Maia: cresciuta con genitori adottivi che l'hanno colmata d'amore, non si è mai fatta troppe domande sulle sue origini. Anzi, non ha mai voluto saperne nulla. Ma ora Maia è incinta e, per proteggere il futuro della bambina che porta in grembo, ha bisogno di conoscere il proprio passato. Nella soffitta di casa c'è un baule che si è sempre guardata dall'aprire. Adesso, però, decide di farlo. Al suo interno, trova fogli scarabocchiati, articoli e qualche fotografia. Sono i primi indizi che deve mettere insieme, i tasselli del grande puzzle della sua infanzia. Ci sono porte che, una volta aperte, non possono più essere richiuse. Quei documenti non le lasciano dubbi: deve partire. E così, senza chiedere il permesso a nessuno, si mette in viaggio verso il Trentino Alto Adige. Lì, ricostruisce a poco a poco la sua storia. La storia di sua madre. La storia delle donne e dei bambini con cui viveva segregata in una fattoria nascosta tra le montagne. Maia pensa di cercare il proprio passato, ma si sbaglia. È il passato che sta cercando lei. La sta chiamando a gran voce. E così impara che non tutte le famiglie sono sicure e affettuose come quella in cui è cresciuta. Alcune possono nascondere pericoli oscura.Con la sua scrittura inconfondibile, intensa e suggestiva, Romina Casagrande torna con un romanzo che intreccia passato e presente. Un racconto capace di toccare le corde più profonde dell'anima grazie alla sua autenticità. I quattro inverni è un viaggio tra le Dolomiti, con i loro paesaggi maestosi e atmosfere cariche di mistero. Tra queste montagne si nascondono segreti di famiglia e verità inconfessabili. Storie rimaste sepolte nel tempo, ma pronte a riemergere con forza. Un libro imperdibile per chi ama i romanzi che scavano nell'anima. Per chi cerca emozioni vere. Per chi desidera lasciarsi sorprendere, pagina dopo pagina.Romina Casagrande vive e insegna a Merano, in provincia di Bolzano. Laureata in lettere classiche e appassionata di storia, ha collaborato con alcuni musei, realizzando percorsi didattici interdisciplinari. Ama la natura, la montagna e condivide la sua casa con tre pappagalli, due cani e un marito. Con Garzanti ha pubblicato anche I bambini di Svevia (2020), I bambini del bosco (2021), L'eredità di Villa Freiberg (2023).IL POSTO DELLE PAROLEascoltare fa pensarewww.ilpostodelleparole.itDiventa un supporter di questo podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/il-posto-delle-parole--1487855/support.

Bolzano, gennaio 2021 – Peter Neumair e Laura Perselli, una coppia benvoluta e rispettata in città, scompaiono misteriosamente dalla loro casa senza lasciare tracce. Inizia così uno dei casi di cronaca nera più sconvolgenti degli ultimi anni. Mentre le autorità cercano disperatamente indizi sui coniugi scomparsi, emergono dettagli inquietanti sul loro figlio, Benno Neumair: un giovane ossessionato dalla perfezione fisica, reduce da una rottura violenta con la sua ex fidanzata e capace di nascondere segreti oscuri dietro una facciata di normalità. Quando le indagini rivelano tracce di sangue nell'appartamento di famiglia e Benno comincia a contraddirsi nei suoi racconti, i sospetti si concentrano su di lui. Alla fine, sarà lo stesso Benno a confessare l'omicidio dei suoi genitori, rivelando dettagli agghiaccianti sul duplice delitto e portando alla luce un lato oscuro che nessuno avrebbe mai sospettato. Ma cosa lo ha spinto davvero a compiere un crimine così efferato? Proviamo a scoprirlo insieme ad Anna Candelora e Bianca Gennari Caspariis: criminologhe, detentrici di un master di II livello in scienze forensi presso La Sapienza di Roma, ma soprattutto autrici per la pagina Instagram e Facebook “Conversazioni sul Crimine”. Iscriviti al gruppo Telegram per interagire con noi e per non perderti nessuna delle novità in anteprima e degli approfondimenti sulle puntate: https://t.me/LucePodcast Se vuoi ascoltarci senza filtri e sostenere il nostro lavoro, da oggi è possibile abbonarsi al nostro canale Patreon e accedere a contenuti bonus esclusivi tramite questo link: patreon.com/LucePodcast

Nella Striscia di Gaza, il corridoio di terra al confine con Israele dove abita la popolazione palestinese, la guerra non si ferma. Israele continua a bombardare e ad attaccare senza se e senza ma; soltanto giovedì - dopo due mesi di blocco totale - ha permesso ai camion con medicine e cibo di entrare e di dare sollievo alla popolazione stremata. E all'estero cresce la rabbia contro il governo israeliano. In questa puntata guardiamo alla fotografia che l'Istat, l'istituto nazionale di statistica, ha scattato all'Italia trovando famiglie piccole, pochi giovani e anziani che rinunciano a curarsi. Parleremo del caso della nuova sindaca di Merano, in provincia di Bolzano, che ha rifiutato di indossare la fascia tricolore che rappresenta tutta l'Italia e della studentessa americana che ha scoperto che il suo professore copiava da ChatGPT. Infine andremo a Los Angeles che sogna taxi volanti: ma ce la farà?

The island is home to features like the Apennine Coast, the Adriatic Coast, and the Apennine Mountains. Most of Sardinia's population lives in the capital region of Cagliari, but much of the island remains untouched, offering visitors a glimpse into authentic Italian island life.One of Sardinia's most fascinating distinctions is that the Barbagia region is recognized as a Blue Zone—an area with an unusually high number of centenarians. This longevity is attributed to the region's healthy diet, active lifestyle, and strong sense of community. For outdoor enthusiasts, inland Sardinia offers some of the best biking and hiking experiences in all of Italy.Tourissimo Tip–What is a Blue Zone? https://www.tourissimo.travel/blog/blue-zoneThe island's coastlines are just as enticing.

Don't miss the La Maddalena Archipelago National Park (Parco Nazionale dell'Arcipelago di La Maddalena), a protected area with crystal-clear waters and pristine landscapes.Charming towns such as Alghero, Bosa, and Cagliari add to the island's appeal. Many of Sardinia's towns are nestled in the mountains located in the island's center, offering a peaceful and scenic escape.Cultural and historical attractions abound. Must-see sites include the Nora Archaeological Park, Bastione di Saint Remy, Parco Archeologico Naturalistico di Santa Cristina, and the Museo Archeologico Nazionale di Cagliari.

Scattered across the island are over 7,000 nuraghe—megalithic stone structures built during the Nuragic Age (c. 1900–730 BC). These mysterious, tower-like buildings are the island's most iconic symbol, and some scholars believe there were once over 10,000 nuraghe structures in total.Religious architecture also impresses, with highlights like the Cattedrale di Santa Maria Assunta e Santa Cecilia, the Church of the Holy Trinity of Saccargia, and the Basilica di San Simplicio showcasing Sardinia's spiritual and artistic heritage.Sardinian cuisine reflects its mountainous geography. Surprisingly, for an island, the diet leans more toward land-based ingredients than seafood. Signature dishes include Porceddu (roast pig), Fregola (a traditional Sardinian pasta), and the adventurous Casu marzu—a sheep's milk cheese intentionally infested with live maggots and considered a local delicacy. Sardinia also holds 16 one-star Michelin restaurants.To accompany these flavors, try a glass of Cannonau red wine, known for its high polyphenol content and potential health benefits, or the refreshing Vermentino white wine, perfect for warm Mediterranean days.Tourissimo Tip–Magic Trick or Pasta Making? https://www.tourissimo.travel/blog/magic-trick-or-pasta-making From the Alps to the Mediterranean, each Italian region is a world of its own.
