“Neapolitan Hymn to Frederick II” and “I Know Who Killed Me” at the library-media library in via Bernini, Tuesday 23 January at 17 pm.
The history of our wonderful city contains in its womb a thousand other stories that represent the nuances of a dynamic and fertile culture. Legendary and exciting stories that have not gone unnoticed by the authors of Giannini Editore and on Tuesday 23 January at 17 pm, two books from the well-known series "Sorsi" will be presented at the Ethos and Nomos library-media library in via Bernini 50, Naples.
“Inno napoletano a Federico II” by the engineer and journalist Elio Notarbartolo and “So chi mi ha uccisa” by the lawyer Paola Proietti, the two volumes that will be presented. The magistrate Sergio Zazzera and the journalist Lino Zaccaria will converse with the authors. The director of the Elsa Morante Tiuna Notarbartolo Prize will moderate the presentation.
“Neapolitan Hymn to Frederick II. Conversations on the Passage of the Stupor Mundi to Naples” by Elio Notarbartolo is a brief excursus on the great achievements of Frederick II in Naples. A magnificent leader, a skilled strategist and, above all, something very rare for sovereigns or administrators of all times, a man of culture. An intellectual and supporter of artists and intellectuals. With all the power he had, he could have left out culture, but he understood its scope, value and potential, as a weapon and as a resource, as light and as currency for eternity.
“So chi mi ha uccisa” by Paola Proietti is the chronicle of an ancient unsolved crime and a probable miscarriage of justice which becomes, in the first-person words of the protagonist, her terrible discovery, her catharsis.
