Friday 12 May at 17pm the meeting with the fascinating and melancholic portrait of Burton, Cervantes, Descartes, Spinoza, La Rochefoucauld, Gentileschi.
The Baroque told as a period in which the prevailing mood is melancholy: Friday 12 May at 17 pm at the headquarters of the Fondazione Banco di Napoli, the presentation of the book by Aurelio Musi Baroque Malinconia. A new and particular vision, which shifts the perception of an era considered sumptuous, towards a definition of the spirit of a more intimate and tormented time. Participants in the meeting: Rosanna Cioffi University of Campania “Luigi Vanvitelli”, Giulio Sodano Director of DiLBec University of Campania “Luigi Vanvitelli”, Bianca Stranieri, Art High School “Filippo Palizzi”, the works are coordinated by Orazio Abbamonte President of the Foundation.
"The Melancholic Soul of the Century – explains Musi – is revealed in the stories of melancholic men and women that are told here: those of Robert Burton, Cervantes, Descartes, Spinoza, La Rochefoucauld, of women artists like Artemisia Gentileschi and of nuns closed in the solitude of convents”.
Traversing every field of European artistic and intellectual history, Musi composes a fascinating portrait of an era full of contrasts and modernity, marked by the perennial tension between transience and dream. An era of decadence, of futile and vain theatricality, of ornamentation devoid of substance: the Baroque has long appeared as an age of transition from the Renaissance to the Enlightenment, marked, like every period of transition, by an aesthetic and moral crisis. The writer and journalist shows instead how the Baroque was an era of conflict that is located directly at the roots of the Modern.
An age in which disorder seeks the path to order, in an unstable balance between deception and truth, the Baroque appears to you as an era of melancholy in which the feeling of life is inseparable from a profound instinct of death, from the perception of a shipwreck in the things of the world and in the psychic life of its inhabitants.
“Musi ranges over many aspects – explains Bianca Stranieri – from the physiological to the artistic, from the political to the literary. The author has committed to giving a complete vision, fully satisfying the reader of a truly interesting and suggestive topic”.
Caivano – An arrest that brings to light one of the most dramatic pages in Neapolitan news. Yesterday, the Carabinieri snapped handcuffs on Ciro Migliore, a 27-year-old already known to law enforcement, during a drug raid in Caivano's green park. The man, identified as an alleged drug dealer, is the same young transgender man who was the boyfriend of Maria Paola Gaglione, the 16-year-old who died in the accident in September 2020. The tragedy, which shocked the entire community, was caused by the victim's brother, Michael Gaglione. As established in the trial, the man, opposing his sister's relationship, chased the couple on a motorcycle. During the chase, the scooter on which Maria Paola and Ciro Migliore were riding crashed, causing the young woman's death. Michele Gaglione was sentenced to 9 years and 6 months in prison for manslaughter. Yesterday's arrest by the police adds a dark piece to Migliore's story. The military raided his home, finding evidence of what appears to be a well-organized drug dealing ring: among the findings, 10 pre-packaged doses of cocaine and crack, packaging material and a "lmaster book" with initials and numbers, likely the accounts from the illegal sale. €1.675 in cash was also seized, presumably the proceeds of the illicit activity. The September 16th investigation is not the first drug dealing investigation involving Ciro Migliore after the death of his girlfriend; already in February 2021, he was targeted by law enforcement for similar crimes. The arrest closes a tragic cycle, where a family loss is intertwined with stories of deviance and illegality.
