Quel momento della nostra vita è arrivato. Quello in cui ci troviamo a passare dai sogni ad occhi aperti dell'infanzia al dover prendere delle scelte che influenzeranno il nostro futuro. In cui dobbiamo capire se qualcosa ci piace così tanto da volerlo trasformare nella passione (e nella professione) del nostro futuro. Il problema è che spesso ci ritroviamo assediate da una storia già...
PAOLO BORSELLINO. ESSENDO STATO
by Ruggero Cappuccio
HIGHLIGHT
ENGLISH
RIGHTS AVAILABLE
RIGHTS AVAILABLE
In Paolo Borsellino essendo Stato, Ruggero Cappuccio focuses on the last moments the Palermitan judge Paolo Borsellino goes through. During these residual burning seconds, he doubts to be still alive and supposes to be already dead. He therefore goes through his whole life from an odd perspective with a strong clarity of mind: his love towards his land, his wife, his mother, his children, the...
POLÍTICA PARA PERPLEJOS

ENGLISH

Nowadays, understanding what is going on is a more revolutionary task than protests that change nothing, erroneous criticisms or unreasonable expectations. Politics cannot continue being what Groucho Marx asserted: the art of making false diagnoses and then applying the wrong remedies. A new political Enlightenment should begin by dismantling faulty analyses, exposing those who promise things...

Tutti gridano alle fake news, le “notizie false”. Insomma, le bufale. Il 2016 è stato definito l’anno della post-verità, l’inizio di un’era in cui le emozioni, i pregiudizi e le convinzioni personali peseranno sempre più della realtà – verificabile – dei fatti. Ma è proprio così? E che cosa sono, esattamente, le fake news? Cosa si nasconde dietro la loro proliferazione sui...

¿Por qué no terminamos de sentirnos felices a pesar de tener un buen coche, un cuerpo presentable, un piso en propiedad y viajecitos al extranjero? Si cada año aumenta la hornada de libros de autoayuda, debe ser que la anterior no nos dejó satisfechos.

«Pochi minuti prima, gli uomini nella stanza erano nove. Tra loro, neanche un tedesco: è una faccenda tutta tra italiani. Perché in quella stanza, a colpi di sibilate nervose, di silenzi e di svelamenti veri o presunti, si è appena consumata una trattativa. O qualcosa del genere. Si sono fronteggiate due diverse idee di Italia: una, quella fascista, che sta irrimediabilmente franando;...

Imagine that someone takes the most published book in history, and erases all the embedded fiction: he begins canceling the miracles; continues with those passages that are copies of earlier tales (like the Magi on December 25th); also eliminates the instrumental addings of the Evangelists, Paul and other Early Church Fathers, an so on. With the remaining after such a surgery, badly can be...

EL OLVIDO DE SÍ
