"They danced one summer"

Alberto Tonti

foreword by Gianni Mura

2007

Never before in the 60s have seen the flourishing of so many singers, bands, record labels and music festivals.

's not so much to say, data in hand we will "scare" in knowing the number of "meteor" of those years.

Alberto Tonti, through the interesting and very ironic "They danced one summer" (cd meteors more meteors in the Annex) recounts musically, precisely through its meteors, a decade crammed with events and events (many are still ten years, and also on a decade there would be less pregnant stuff to say!) in just over 130 pages (written in large letters)

It 's this in many ways The main flaw of the work of Tonti: too much brevity that unfortunately sometimes strays even a few mistakes.

the end of each chapter and then review the meteors of that year, is listed with a quick, unpretentious, facts, historical and socio-cultural.

This list seems taken verbatim from some website, which, if you just want to give an idea overview of what happened "the other" without too much further, it is not so objectionable.

Unfortunately, as mentioned above, these summaries are a real historical inaccuracies at all, in my opinion is very crude, (perhaps I have also lost the other for my ignorance): at the end of the chapter dedicated to the '63 mentions the collapse of the dam Vajont when it is already known (or so it should) that the dam is not collapsed.

The undisputed value of this book, we read in one evening is certainly to have a lively rhythm and giving, in this way, the idea of \u200b\u200bmusical and cultural ferment of those years.

Many episodes are really smiling and really give the size of the absurd and spans the air were found many of the record companies and advertising and what passed in the ears of our parents and as the music now " Do not think that music stuff there! " at that point, as powerful counter-attack, I would listen to their " Yeeeeeeh " de " The Primitives " only for one thing.

My last question is this: because the output a book (light and unpretentious) on the Sixties and its meteors music at a time when attention and revival especially, is turning decisively towards the next decade?

See the shows of the Milan Triennale, dedicated to the '70s, the recent novel (and film) "Crime Novel" , the recent television drama on the life of Rino Gaetano songwriter, and furnishings, by popular demand, return (alas) wallpaper exquisitely seventies!

Letter To Beauty Saloon

Mourning in football

was to be expected from me, my blog "literary" is not on-line by even a day that already crosses into other fields and other matters that the books have nothing to do.

Some news, however, when the laws they leave you so badly that the only way, perhaps, is just to share your feelings with others.

Just as in 2004 I was very impressed by Cesare Prandelli's decision to give up the assignment just signed with Roma, to assist the sick wife, now, tell the truth, I really moved to read the news that Mrs. Manuela is dead.

The world of sport you should get used to acts such as human and worthy of Prandelli But in football, greedy, dishonest and violent, according to many and that is not that much to prove the contrary, the news has surprised many.

Yet this sport, which many continue to follow with passion and love, including me, sometimes he can prove that it is not typical of all garbage.

Prandelli has not been put aside because of his voluntary isolation, its value as a coach has not been questioned so that today trains (well) Fiorentina and how great its value in human eyes of all.

Perhaps, for this, I think that many today feel closer to Prandelli and I hope, without that stupid morbidity for the acts of others who often takes us.

"Women who read are dangerous"

Stefan Bollmann and Elke Heidenreich

foreword by Daria Bignardi

2007

The first "review" of my blog is absolutely intentional.

Because this is the last book I read (although it would be truer to say that I finished first among those I'm reading ...)

Why just from reading this original essay I jumped up with the idea of a blog about the books (perhaps digress here and there).

Because I thought it was time to leave the notebook where I kept so far the reviews have already done and add to my "collection" but making it evolve.

Why, above all, I said to myself: what better argument could open a reader's blog, if not women, reading and the danger of the first acquired as a result of the second?!

Women have started to read from time to time and in secret.

Occasionally we read in the few spare moments between a domestic affair and the other in secret, their fathers and their husbands, because reading was not considered a 'work for them.

fact, when readers were first discovered, many men have the hairs stand up on his head, many others are now white and some of them lost everything.

Women who read are immoral, because they go against the conventions of time and are more dangerous to themselves and others! And then, what they read? And why? They already have so many beautiful harmless pastimes, why should they even get to read? Who knows what will be their strange ideas in mind ...

Yet, on closer inspection, many of those first readers "to sfrodo" were aware of their dangers and revolutionary nature?

Very few I think.

Reading women (beyond the ability to read real own) comes first and foremost as entertainment, intimate and private, from work every day (but dangerous precisely because of that, what can not combine a woman in control but rather left alone with a book in his hand?), an entertainment than the usual gossip exchanged at the hour of tea, or while mending or knitting together, and only after, and only for some, become an instrument of learning and therefore emancipation.

Women who read are dangerous but also have always fascinated painters and artists in general.

I have already defined "Women who read are dangerous" an original essay, in fact test it but it is a "wise illustrations, images, reading the women through the ages.

delight the eye with beautiful images of women reading, to name a few: it is intimate and bright (like many of the few paintings by this author) the portrait "Woman Reading a Letter" by Jan Veermer; charming "Girl that reads " Fragonard, sunny family and" The Rose Garden "by Krøier, modern and carefree " Lee Miller and Tanja Ramm, photo taken by the father of famous photographer, also an amateur photographer.

delight to read through the articles of the two authors (one of the most unconventional Elke Heidenreich, much more historical than Stefan Bollmann) irony foreword by Daria Bignardi (reader declared "Saving Silverman" before being a journalist).

READ: for women is to be read on public transport, so all you have to wonder what ever so dangerous, even for men so that everyone thinks "good, prevention is important"
