  • “Il Grande Dandy” Il Nuovo Libro Di Marcello Sorgi Un Personaggio Simbolico Di Un'epoca
    “Il grande dandy” il nuovo libro di Marcello Sorgi Un personaggio simbolico di un’epoca Relazione di Costanza Falvo D’Urso Mercoledì 15 febbraio 2012 Abbiamo ascoltato dalla voce accorata di Domenico Modugno “Vecchio Frac”, una musica accattivante, raffinata e quasi ipnotica, che sicuramente ci ha accompagnato durante gli anni della nostra giovinezza. Ma ci siamo mai chiesti a chi o a quale storia si fosse ispirato Domenico Modugno?. Ci siamo mai chiesti chi fosse quel tristissimo uomo in frac che trasognato e malinconico si aggirava per le strade notturne della città?. Dopo oltre mezzo secolo il nome dell’uomo in frac ci viene rivelato da Marcello Sorgi nel suo romanzo dal titolo “IL grande dandy”, un libro che mi è piaciuto tanto, sicché l’ho letto in poche ore, divorandolo e facendomi catturare dalla narrazione di una vita straordinaria e avventurosa che si è sviluppata tra mondanità e storia. Quell’uomo in frac è Raimondo Lanza di Trabia, ultimo e leggendario principe siciliano, discendente da Federico Barbarossa e da Federico II di Svevia. Una figura che, se la storia ufficiale ha emarginato non riuscendo ad inserirla negli schemi rituali, nei formalismi tradizionali della classe sociale d’appartenenza, resta comunque molto interessante anche sotto il profilo umano, e appartiene, secondo me, forse più all’Ottocento che non al Novecento, considerando la sua fine improvvisa come un rifiuto inconsapevole del nuovo secolo. Secolo che segnerà, con gli eventi bellici iniziati da quelli per l’Unità d’Italia e terminati con il periodo fascista, la fine dell’aristocrazia europea, di quella italiana e di quella siciliana che fino all’ultimo ha cercato di sopravvivere, pur contagiata da una spiccata propensione al gioco, alle scommesse e ai vizi e da commistioni impensabili con mafia e malavita.

Sorgi, intervistato dal caporedattore de “La Stampa” Sandro Chiaromonti, presenterà il libro “Il grande dandy. Vita spericolata di Raimondo Lanza di Trabia, ultimo principe siciliano” (Rizzoli, 2011). “Inauguriamo l’estate culturale alassina – dice la Consigliera Delegata alla Cultura, Chicca Ienca – con un ospite di primo piano. Il giornalista e scrittore Marcello Sorgi, già direttore del Tg1, del Giornale Radio Rai e de La Stampa, ha accolto il nostro invito a presentare il suo ultimo libro ad Alassio.

Tra biografia e romanzo “Il Grande Dandy”, è la storia della vita spericolata di Raimondo Lanza di Trabia, il leggendario principe siciliano che Domenico Modugno nel 1955, un anno dopo la sua scomparsa, ricorderà con commozione in una delle sue canzoni più famose, “Vecchio frac”: “Ha il cilindro per cappello, due diamanti per gemelli, un bastone di cristallo, la gardenia nell’occhiello, e sul candido gilet un papillon di seta blu”. Il Vostro Giornale - 1 / 2 - 27.09.2021 2 Misterioso tombeur de femmes personaggio fascinoso e brillante, doppiogiochista imprevedibile, il principe e la sua fulminea vicenda si perdono sfuggenti tra le pieghe reali e fantastiche della storia del Novecento italiano, e non solo.

  • L'uono in Frack
    La ciudad de los placeres o el placer también puede ser gratis Marcelo Aparicio | Maqueta Sergio Berrocal Era una ciudad soñada. No sabía ni el nombre, ni su ubicación. Su suelo era de una arena fina, ni fría ni caliente, solamente suave que sonaba y retumbaba a cada paso que daba. La ciudad estaba partida en dos por un río caudaloso y correntoso, de agua salada, tibia y azul. Aparecía de repente, sin aceras ni las habituales horteradas que hacen los alcaldes para ganar votos. Era como un río de mar salada con orilla normal de arena. La gente debía atravesarlo obligatoriamente para trasladarse de una punta a la otra. Lo hacía vestida y por distintos lugares del cauce. A mi me dio por cruzarlo por un sitio donde no circulaba casi nadie. Después entendí por qué todos iban por un sendero como preestablecido. Por donde me metí no se hacía pie. Me hundí y debí nadar, mojándome. Vi que también le pasó lo mismo a otra colega periodista. Era un viaje “chupetín” para periodistas especializados en temas hedonísticos. El agua era cálida y limpia. Aproveché la corriente para clavar uno de mis pies en la orilla de enfrente y con el impulso, subir. Lo logré sin mayores esfuerzos, pero después vi que había una rampa para los distraídos que hacían lo que yo. Seguí el trayecto y no recuerdo haber estado mojado por mucho tiempo. Era como que el entorno, la ciudad, todo dependía de los sentidos de uno mismo. Habí amucha madera en la construcción de casas y tiendas.

  • Notiziario Bibliografico Della Biblioteca Civica
    Liber Notiziario Bibliografico della Biblioteca Civica ‘A.Corghi’ di Ciriè Gentilissimo lettore, Siamo già al terzo numero di Liber! Questo numero presenta due novità: uno spazio dedicato all’ autore del mese , uno scrittore particolarmente significativo del quale vi suggeriamo differenti letture, e soprattutto, uno spazio rivolto alla fonoteca jazz, nuova sezione che si affianca alla ormai già avviata fonoteca classica. Dobbiamo rivolgere un particolare ringraziamento a tutti coloro che effettuano donazioni librarie a favore della Biblioteca Civica: le donazioni sono preziose perché consentono di ampliare l’offerta libraria a disposizione del pubblico. Vi ricordiamo che Liber potrà essere consultato dagli appassionanti di libri sia in forma cartacea presso la Biblioteca sia in formato elettronico sul sito internet del Comune di Cirié (www.cirie.net). Fred Vargas La cavalcata dei morti Einaudi “Durante le mie ricerche sul Medioevo” , - spiega Fred Vargas – “mi sono imbattuta nella leggenda della ‘Schiera furiosa’, un gruppo di cavalieri spettrali che di tanto in tanto tornava in terra per punire con la morte i responsabili di delitti mai scoperti e quindi impuniti. Questi mostri che combattono a modo loro l'ingiustizia mi sono sembrati subito un ottimo punto di partenza per un romanzo noir” . Ecco spiegato il motivo per cui il commissario Adamsberg, il personaggio forse più noto della giallista francese, sia costretto ancora una volta a lasciare la sua Parigi per un’ambientazione leggermente più gotica, la Normandia. Non che ne avesse tanta voglia, ne siamo certi. Il commissario sognatore è, insieme a Maigret, a Mon- talbano e a pochi altri, uno di quei commissari che si ritrovano in mezzo alle azioni senza avere nessun ruolo veramente propulsivo nella vicenda.

Its theoretical framework lies between the studies around Italian youth culture and those around the Italian Communist Party (PCI), investigating the relationship between young people and contemporary society and examining, for the first time, the relationship of the former with the PCI, its institutions and media organs.1 The arrival of an Anglo-American influenced pop culture (culture transmitted by the media and targeted at young people) and of its market, shaped the individualities of part of the pre-baby boomers that, finally, were able to create bespoke identities somewhat disconnected from the traditional party-related narrative while remaining on the left of the political spectrum.

    Ce n’est pas donné à tout le monde d’avoir un grand-père digne d’un roman ! La narratrice de ce livre est la petite-fille de Raimondo Lanza di Trabia, un prince sicilien, dandy extravagant et charmeur qui fut, pendant les neuf mois qui suivirent le début de la Seconde Guerre mondiale, l’espion de confiance de Galeazzo Ciano, ministre des Affaires étrangères et gendre de Mussolini. Sa mission ? Mener une bataille secrète contre l’entrée en guerre de l’Italie aux côtés du Reich, la préserver des agissements du « petit caporal » Hitler et déjouer l’influence des va-t-en-guerre auprès du Duce. Pour cette mission (et pour son plaisir…) il fit tomber dans ses filets amoureux Cora, une ravissante espionne britannique débutante. Après avoir infiltré une cellule nazie dans le Sud-Tyrol, évité le pire à Cinecittà, traversé la France en pleine Débâcle et rencontré en tête à tête Churchill… de péripéties en aventures rocambolesques (mais véridiques) les deux tourtereaux perdirent la bataille ! Tout en laissant matière à écrire une histoire à suspense digne des meilleures séries. OTTAVIA CASAGRANDE est metteuse en scène de théâtre. Elle a étudié au Goldsmiths College de Londres et obtenu un diplôme en Drama and Theatre Arts. Elle a travaillé en Italie, au Royaume-Uni, en France et en Russie. Avant ce roman, elle a écrit un livre retraçant la jeunesse de ce grand-père mythique, en collaboration avec Raimonda Lanza di Trabia, sa mère. « Inédit et palpitant. » Le Figaro Magazine « Un authentique roman d’espionnage. » Le Monde des Livres « Passionnant et allègre.
