Article Key Points
A brilliant author of our times, Gianrico Carofiglio will tell his audience "the most effective tool to defuse the simplifications that lead to authoritarianism and violence". “It is the opposite of meekness or submissiveness and can only be practiced as a result of a choice.” explains the writer “That is, an act of courage. Kindness along with courage means taking responsibility for one’s actions and one’s being in the world, accepting the responsibility of being human.”
He has always been fascinated by the idea that words, full of meaning and therefore strength, hide within themselves a different and superior power compared to that of communicating, transmitting messages, telling stories. The belief, that is, that they have the power to produce transformations. That they can be, literally, the tool to change the world. The spectators of Campania will therefore have an unmissable opportunity to delve into these important themes, carried forward with intelligence and political and civil sensitivity by the former magistrate.
