/&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;Many complain that the art of XXI century is somewhat a reptition of the art of the earlier 30 years, and that we lack the geniuses of even recent past. But this situation is not very different from the centuries after the Reinassance. Reinassance is an age of giants, when even not so great artists could achieve the highest performances; in the Baroque we have a number of geniuses (Velazqeuz, Caravaggio, Rubens), amidst a very large number of excellent artists that are however not very original; in the XVIII century the average quality of paintings is very high, but the century produced very few outstanding artists; in XIX century, paintings is largely academic and weak, although a number of very fine artists (Ingres, David, Géricault, Friedrich etc.) was produced by this century. Of course, the reason of this sort of decadence is the development of the language of modern paintings, that was tumultuous in the Reinessance and then slowed down - as well as there are only seven notes, and you can compose a large but not infinite number of melodies, there is only a limited number of subjects in painting and in the way to express them. After a century of tumultuous development of the language of art, we are in a phase of settlement, with little innovation because almost everything has been explored. Nonetheless, the quality of the latest art is in my opinion on average very high, although actually often not very innovative. Then, a time will arrive when the meaning itself of art will change, in the same way as in XIX century the meaning of art changed from representation to imagination. Probably we have already some hints of this great change, but we cannot see it: Michelangelo was already a conceptual artidu, but of course nobody could suspect in that time that such ideas would lead to &lt;em&gt;objects trouvés&lt;/em&gt; and abstract painting.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6386098032283015538-3801215448361996889?l=castorphans.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://castorphans.blogspot.com/feeds/3801215448361996889/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6386098032283015538&amp;postID=3801215448361996889' title='0 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6386098032283015538/posts/default/3801215448361996889'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6386098032283015538/posts/default/3801215448361996889'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://castorphans.blogspot.com/2012/01/xxith-century-art.html' title='XXIth century art'/><author><name>Hans Castorp</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05016989070891441042</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='33' height='21' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_A9pBQk8upI8/SK0Vwt148OI/AAAAAAAAACI/lEhtzl9N4Vs/S220/IAVS4.JPG'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6386098032283015538.post-5389251687145854699</id><published>2012-01-01T09:28:00.005+01:00</published><updated>2012-01-01T09:37:40.464+01:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Daverio'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Vasari'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='arte'/><title type='text'>Daverio</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://www.tvoggi.info/wp-content/uploads/philippe-daverio.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="float: right; margin: 0pt 0pt 10px 10px; cursor: pointer; width: 216px; height: 162px;" src="http://www.tvoggi.info/wp-content/uploads/philippe-daverio.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I have read the fine book by Daverio "Il Museo Immaginato", recently issued. It is amusing and funny, but behind the friendliness there is a rather revolutionary proposal in approaching the history of art: to replace the usual storicist approch that emphasize the innovations of each artist and that wasa inheriteed from Vasari, with an evaluation of the web of citations and relationships that link together all paintings of every age, not differently from the approach of literary cirticism. The plat works mainly because the selection is very restricted, only paitingins and only paintings from Titian to the XIX century (with rare exceptions), a period of very little innovation before the revolutions of the late XIX-early XX century. But the proposal is well worth of consideration.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6386098032283015538-5389251687145854699?l=castorphans.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://castorphans.blogspot.com/feeds/5389251687145854699/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6386098032283015538&amp;postID=5389251687145854699' title='0 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6386098032283015538/posts/default/5389251687145854699'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6386098032283015538/posts/default/5389251687145854699'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://castorphans.blogspot.com/2012/01/daverio.html' title='Daverio'/><author><name>Hans Castorp</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05016989070891441042</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='33' height='21' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_A9pBQk8upI8/SK0Vwt148OI/AAAAAAAAACI/lEhtzl9N4Vs/S220/IAVS4.JPG'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6386098032283015538.post-7656623854813472940</id><published>2011-12-24T10:55:00.004+01:00</published><updated>2011-12-24T11:00:49.954+01:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='inglese'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='tedesco'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='italiano'/><title type='text'>Inglese</title><content type='html'>Stavo leggendo in un libro di Nick Hornby il discorso di un personaggio che parlava in cockney. Mi colpì la stranezza di quel linguaggio, non tanto il vocabolario, che differisce dall'inglese standard quasi solo per la pronuncia, quanto per la &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;sintassi&lt;/span&gt;. La disposizione delle parole è infatti completamente diversa dall costruzione diretta - non diversa da quella delle lingue neolatine - dell'inglese che si insegna nelle scuole (inglesi). Il che mi fa pensare che l'inglese, sotto una verniciatura di francese (da cui proviene gran parte del vocabolario) e latina (che fino a poco fa era la lingua dei dotti), sotto uno strato sassone-germanico, conserva una sintassi &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;celtica&lt;/span&gt;, del tutto diversa sia dalla costruzione delle lingue germaniche che di quelle neolatine. Questa sintassi particolare si ritrova ancora nel gallese e nel gaelico, ma rimane al cuore dell'inglese, e si riconosce soprattutto nei dialetti e nello slang, dove la scorza neolatina è più sottile. I celti, invasi da sassoni e normanni, assorbirono il vocabolario degli invasori, ma mantennero la sintassi della lingua di origine.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6386098032283015538-7656623854813472940?l=castorphans.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://castorphans.blogspot.com/feeds/7656623854813472940/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6386098032283015538&amp;postID=7656623854813472940' title='0 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6386098032283015538/posts/default/7656623854813472940'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6386098032283015538/posts/default/7656623854813472940'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://castorphans.blogspot.com/2011/12/inglese.html' title='Inglese'/><author><name>Hans Castorp</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05016989070891441042</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='33' height='21' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_A9pBQk8upI8/SK0Vwt148OI/AAAAAAAAACI/lEhtzl9N4Vs/S220/IAVS4.JPG'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6386098032283015538.post-6313092275784183384</id><published>2011-12-24T10:51:00.003+01:00</published><updated>2011-12-24T10:55:15.946+01:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Obama'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='America'/><title type='text'>Obama</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/e/e9/Official_portrait_of_Barack_Obama.jpg/225px-Official_portrait_of_Barack_Obama.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 225px; height: 306px;" src="http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/e/e9/Official_portrait_of_Barack_Obama.jpg/225px-Official_portrait_of_Barack_Obama.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Uno dei pilastri dell'ideologia africana è che siamo tutti fratelli.

More generally. Leonardo was so ahead of his tome (and so misunderstood) to be a man of XXth century. He considered himself an artist, an intellectual, a creative man, like us today, not certainly a craftsman such as was the concept in the XVIth century. Moreover, his main interest was perhaps to find a way to escape from the bidimensionality of the painting, a typical XXth century topic that was not fully perceived in the XVIth century.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6386098032283015538-1604563581530737521?l=castorphans.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://castorphans.blogspot.com/feeds/1604563581530737521/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6386098032283015538&amp;postID=1604563581530737521' title='0 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6386098032283015538/posts/default/1604563581530737521'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6386098032283015538/posts/default/1604563581530737521'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://castorphans.blogspot.com/2011/12/leonardo-e-malevic.html' title='Leonardo and Malevic'/><author><name>Hans Castorp</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05016989070891441042</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='33' height='21' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_A9pBQk8upI8/SK0Vwt148OI/AAAAAAAAACI/lEhtzl9N4Vs/S220/IAVS4.JPG'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6386098032283015538.post-1027516353488184692</id><published>2011-12-13T09:28:00.003+01:00</published><updated>2011-12-13T09:30:14.282+01:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='cubism'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Picasso'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Velazquez'/><title type='text'>Velazquez</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://www.centroarte.com/images/velasquez/vel10.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; WIDTH: 193px; FLOAT: right; HEIGHT: 152px; CURSOR: hand" border="0" alt="" src="http://www.centroarte.com/images/velasquez/vel10.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;Velazquez' "The Vulcan Forge": The "Demoiselles d'Avignon" four centuries before?

Aveva partecipato a una congiura contro Lorenzo il Magnifico, e per questo era stato allontanato dalle cariche pubbliche. Per capire il Principe bisogna poi tener conto che Lorenzo, a cui il libretto è indirizzato, non era certo un capo democratico di una repubblica, ma una specie di dittatore di Firenze che, con quelle tecniche che con De Pretis nel XIX secolo sarebbero state chiamate “trasformismo”, era riuscito a tessere una rete di accordi, quelli sì estremamente cinici, con tutti gli stati italiani tanto da essere diventato l”ago della bilancia”. Inoltre Lorenzo si teneva buona la Francia che aveva mire espansionistiche sull’Italia. Machiavelli sostanzialmente dice: smettila di leccare i piedi alla Francia, e mostra il coraggio che deve avere un leader politico, fatti capo di una coalizione di stati italiani e dai una bella bastonata (militare) agli stranieri. In altre parole, il Principe è una critica del trasformismo delle pavide classi dirigenti italiane, non certo un invito a vendersi la madre pur di avere successo in politica! Le virtù che invoca sono sì quelle della volpe, ma anche quelle del &lt;em&gt;lione! &lt;/em&gt;Qualcosa di non troppo dissimile la sinistra extraparlamentare rinfacciava a Enrico Berlinguer negli anni ’70. Tant’è, Lorenzo ovviamente non diede ascolto a Machiavelli, le potenze straniere fecero un sol boccone dell’Italia, l’Italia entrò in una crisi economica mortale da cui si riprese solo con l’Unità, Firenze, la città più ricca d’Europa, divenne una città di provincia, e soprattutto finì il Rinascimento.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6386098032283015538-531427933071402840?l=castorphans.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://castorphans.blogspot.com/feeds/531427933071402840/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6386098032283015538&amp;postID=531427933071402840' title='0 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6386098032283015538/posts/default/531427933071402840'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6386098032283015538/posts/default/531427933071402840'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://castorphans.blogspot.com/2011/11/il-principe.html' title='Il Principe'/><author><name>Hans Castorp</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05016989070891441042</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='33' height='21' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_A9pBQk8upI8/SK0Vwt148OI/AAAAAAAAACI/lEhtzl9N4Vs/S220/IAVS4.JPG'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_E1r5fcenJNo/THtm1-dXiuI/AAAAAAAAAno/n_7c9YhI8Iw/s72-c/machiavelli.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6386098032283015538.post-1207841529944511120</id><published>2011-11-19T17:35:00.002+01:00</published><updated>2011-11-19T17:42:12.869+01:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Europa'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='euro'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='crise économique'/><title type='text'>Crise</title><content type='html'>Il y a un grand débat autour de la crise et surtout sur à qui est la faute.

La crise puis a passée dans les colonies européennes, à qui les Américain ont adossé bonne part de leur expenses. En effet, le rapport entre le Bund allemand et les bonds américains est très négatif, ce qui signifie un flux d'argent de l'Europe à l'Amérique. Et de cela la crise de l'Euro.

La cosa interessante non è la frase in sé – i liberalconservatori maschi e ricchi fanno continuamente l’elogio dello “struggle for existence” e va benissimo, se l’elogio dello “struggle for existence” viene fatto da una donna in fondo non tanto fortunata, diventa fonte di scandalo – quanto il fatto che tutti siano rimasti spiazzati. Sarebbe bastato rispondere: “ma ha Terry avuto successo? Si può considerare successo il quarto d’ora di notorietà costruito ad uso e consumo di chi il successo ce l’ha veramente? Possono fare la prostituta anche le racchie, vista la sorprendente varietà dei gusti maschili, e forse se fosse diventata abilissima nel lavoro a maglia avrebbe fatto moltissime comparsate televisive lautamente pagate (anche se in contesti più familiari). In altre parole , sarebbe bastato il vecchio armamentario critico, sarebbe bastato dire che chi ha il potere illude le poveracce con fantasie di successo. Ma l’armamentario critico non va più di moda.&lt;br /&gt;Tra l’altro, atroce mi sorge il dubbio che dovremmo leggere la frase di Terry non come una spavalda dichiarazione di cinismo, ma come una amara (e forse non del tutto inconsapevole) denuncia di stampo femminista. In effetti, in un paese oscenamente maschilista come l’Italia, che credo abbia meno parlamentari donna del Pakistan musulmano, con l’unico leader politico donna (Rosy Bindi) a cui viene continuamente rinfacciato di essere brutta, per una donna le possibilità di ascesa sociale sono veramente molto limitate. La Montalcini è dovuta andare in America. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6386098032283015538-1068041894289151659?l=castorphans.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://castorphans.blogspot.com/feeds/1068041894289151659/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6386098032283015538&amp;postID=1068041894289151659' title='0 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6386098032283015538/posts/default/1068041894289151659'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6386098032283015538/posts/default/1068041894289151659'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://castorphans.blogspot.com/2011/11/terry.html' title='Terry'/><author><name>Hans Castorp</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05016989070891441042</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='33' height='21' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_A9pBQk8upI8/SK0Vwt148OI/AAAAAAAAACI/lEhtzl9N4Vs/S220/IAVS4.JPG'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6386098032283015538.post-6296910497793793334</id><published>2011-10-27T09:07:00.004+02:00</published><updated>2011-10-27T09:26:23.063+02:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Mezzogiorno'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Caparezza'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Pasolini'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='fascismo'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Italia'/><title type='text'>Pasolini</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://www.pasolini.net/sabaudia01.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; WIDTH: 228px; FLOAT: right; HEIGHT: 149px; CURSOR: hand" border="0" alt="" src="http://www.pasolini.net/sabaudia01.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;In un famoso video sulle dune si Sabaudia &lt;a href="http://youtu.be/e6ki-p1eW2o"&gt;http://youtu.be/e6ki-p1eW2o&lt;/a&gt; Pasolini diceva che il fascismo non era riuscito a rendere fascisti gli italiani, mentre ci erano riusciti, con il consumismo, i democristiani. Descriveva in modo quanto mai icastico il berluscon-leghismo vent'anni prima del suo avvento - le televisioni commerciali iniziarono a trasmettere poco dopo la morte del poeta. I poeti hanno, come si sa, il dono della profezia. I politici della destra hanno smantellato le strutture statuali del paese, a partire dallo stesso parlamento, che è stato neutralizzato dalla legge elettorale detta "porcellum" ma il problema vero, che renderà difficilissima una qualsiasi opera di ricostruzione, è proprio quella che Pasolini chiamava "mutazione antropologica". Se però la fascistizzazione dell'Italia è passata attraverso il consumismo, ci sono - forse - realtà che, essendo sfuggite almeno in gran parte al consumismo, sono anche sfuggite alla fascistizzazione. La prima è il sud dove, nonostante l'oppressione della mafia, il consumismo è ancora - per forza maggiore di povertà - non è arrivato se non marginalmente, e infatti proprio dal sud proviene Caparezza, che dell'Italia di oggi fa una critica non solo spietata, ma soprattutto &lt;em&gt;efficace &lt;/em&gt;e di generale &lt;em&gt;consenso&lt;/em&gt;. L'altro forse sono i giovanissimi.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6386098032283015538-6296910497793793334?l=castorphans.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://castorphans.blogspot.com/feeds/6296910497793793334/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6386098032283015538&amp;postID=6296910497793793334' title='0 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6386098032283015538/posts/default/6296910497793793334'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6386098032283015538/posts/default/6296910497793793334'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://castorphans.blogspot.com/2011/10/pasolini.html' title='Pasolini'/><author><name>Hans Castorp</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05016989070891441042</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='33' height='21' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_A9pBQk8upI8/SK0Vwt148OI/AAAAAAAAACI/lEhtzl9N4Vs/S220/IAVS4.JPG'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6386098032283015538.post-512380594984556774</id><published>2011-10-18T08:49:00.002+02:00</published><updated>2011-10-18T08:53:57.712+02:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='scrittura'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='romanzo'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Platone'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='stampa'/><title type='text'>Scrittura</title><content type='html'>In fondo Platone aveva ragione a criticare l'avvento della scrittura, ma &lt;em&gt;non &lt;/em&gt;per le ragioni da lui addotte.

Però Platone accusava la scrittura di rendere inutile la memoria; al contrario, la memoria è enormemente ampliata dalla lettura, ed è molto maggiore in chi sa leggere e scrivere che negli illetterati - probabilmente uno studente di liceo sa più cose di quante ne sapessero i cantastorie che recitavano a memoria l'intera odissea.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6386098032283015538-512380594984556774?l=castorphans.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://castorphans.blogspot.com/feeds/512380594984556774/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6386098032283015538&amp;postID=512380594984556774' title='0 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6386098032283015538/posts/default/512380594984556774'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6386098032283015538/posts/default/512380594984556774'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://castorphans.blogspot.com/2011/10/scrittura.html' title='Scrittura'/><author><name>Hans Castorp</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05016989070891441042</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='33' height='21' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_A9pBQk8upI8/SK0Vwt148OI/AAAAAAAAACI/lEhtzl9N4Vs/S220/IAVS4.JPG'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6386098032283015538.post-7182909160732743395</id><published>2011-10-16T09:31:00.006+02:00</published><updated>2011-10-17T12:34:17.335+02:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Van Gogh'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='pubblicità'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='contemporary art'/><title type='text'>The convinction of Vincent</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://www.artonweb.it/artemoderna/quadri/foto/articolo43.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; WIDTH: 283px; FLOAT: right; HEIGHT: 194px; CURSOR: hand" border="0" alt="" src="http://www.artonweb.it/artemoderna/quadri/foto/articolo43.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;The sight of an exhibition of Van Gogh, with enthusiastic crowds admiring the bright colours of the late Vincent, somewhat surprises me. These blues an yellows would have been considered intolerable by everybody just half a century ago. If you look at the paintings from an artist of the Reinessance, or the Baroque, or even from most contemporary painters, you will se an harmony that - intentionally - is completely lacking in Van Gogh. In painting there are harmonic laws not different from those of music: C and E chord is harmonic and C and F is disharmonic, in the same way green and red is very harmonic and yellow and blue disharmonic. The palette of Van Gogh is intentionally a &lt;em&gt;completely &lt;/em&gt;disharmonic palette, since he tries to express sorrow, depression and abandonment. Why then modern public finds this palette appealing? The reason is, in my opinion, that such combinations of disharmonic colours, violent and loud, are very suited for advertising and are therefore the palette the surrounds us every day - on advertising boards, on shop signs, on clips. People are so accostumed to such cacophony that they are pleased by the vanguardistic cacophonic palette of Vincent, much in the same way as people living in town like the roars of cars and the noise of streets and feel unpleasant the chirrup of birds and the silence of sea.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6386098032283015538-7182909160732743395?l=castorphans.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://castorphans.blogspot.com/feeds/7182909160732743395/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6386098032283015538&amp;postID=7182909160732743395' title='0 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6386098032283015538/posts/default/7182909160732743395'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6386098032283015538/posts/default/7182909160732743395'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://castorphans.blogspot.com/2011/10/convinction-of-vincent.html' title='The convinction of Vincent'/><author><name>Hans Castorp</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05016989070891441042</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='33' height='21' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_A9pBQk8upI8/SK0Vwt148OI/AAAAAAAAACI/lEhtzl9N4Vs/S220/IAVS4.JPG'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6386098032283015538.post-7157878864641683407</id><published>2011-10-12T19:09:00.001+02:00</published><updated>2011-10-12T19:15:59.585+02:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='tempo'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='epicureismo'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Orazio'/><title type='text'>Carpe diem</title><content type='html'>L’oraziano “carpe diem” viene di solito interpretato come “godi più che puoi perché la vita è breve”. Certo, l’invito a godere gli effimeri piaceri c’è , ma in realtà l’esortazione significa “vivi attimo per attimo, giorno per giorno”. Se si vive ogni attimo come se fosse separato da quelli che vengono prima e quelli che vengono dopo, la catena del tempo si arresta, ed è come se il tempo non scorresse più, con il che la vita, immersa in un eterno presente, diventa come se fosse eterna – la morte diventa un attimo come un altro, non la fine di una lunga catena di eventi in successione.

If you visit a museum of contemporary art you see pieces that are different and diverse, but that nonetheless all speak a common tongue, consistend and easy to recognize. A few – for instance Philippe Daverio - see the similarity among these works as repetition, and the fact that the works of nowadays are very similar to those of a few decades ago as crisis; but it is useful to recall that this is not at all new. After three centuries of experimentations, from Giotto to Raphael, classic arte eventually developed his language that was adopted almost without variation by all subsequent artists - from Raphael up to the invention of photrography. XVII and XVIII century art is somewhat repetitive, but it certainly does not represent an example of crisis. The comparison of recent contemporary art to mannerism is certainly not new, but my feeling is that we are already beyond mannerism.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Art of the Reinaissance tried to represent the reality, following the precepts of Aristotle; and the cornerstone of the art of the Renaissance is the discovery of perspective. It is more difficult to define the nature of contemporary art: the cornerstone is certainly Duchamp’s &lt;em&gt;Fontana&lt;/em&gt;, but it’s difficult to find something coherent in the many roads that the art of XX century has explored; in my opinion, contemporary art instead of reality tries to represent &lt;em&gt;feelings&lt;/em&gt; – the roots of contemporary art are in the Romantic movement of XIX century that eventually originated the Impressionism. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6386098032283015538-1809724556114390807?l=castorphans.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://castorphans.blogspot.com/feeds/1809724556114390807/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6386098032283015538&amp;postID=1809724556114390807' title='0 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6386098032283015538/posts/default/1809724556114390807'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6386098032283015538/posts/default/1809724556114390807'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://castorphans.blogspot.com/2011/10/contemporary-art.html' title='contemporary art'/><author><name>Hans Castorp</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05016989070891441042</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='33' height='21' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_A9pBQk8upI8/SK0Vwt148OI/AAAAAAAAACI/lEhtzl9N4Vs/S220/IAVS4.JPG'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6386098032283015538.post-7680979243328358664</id><published>2011-10-07T09:06:00.003+02:00</published><updated>2011-10-07T09:12:45.956+02:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='banque'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='crise économique'/><title type='text'>Banques</title><content type='html'>Dan le web tandis que dans les mots de Tremonti il y a un fleurissement d'accuses contre les banques -par example la critique du seigneurage, ou les itnervention de Grillo - rappelant l'antique accuse catholique contre les usuries qui créent monnai de la monnaie.

Les USA sont ont un endettement démesuré, due soit aux dépenses pour les guerres, soit au sauvetage des banques (il ne faut pas souligner que dans tous les deux cas la faute c’est à Bush, non pas à Obama, la droite a dechargée de ses énormes responsabilités sur le president noir). En autre, les Etats Unis consomment bien plus de ce qu’ils ne produisente, et cela depuis plus de 40 ans – l’abandonnement de la parité-or a été la conséquence de cette surconsommation. L’Europe est assez peu endetté, et produise bien plus de ce qu’il ne consomme – même les PIGS, Portugal, Espagne, Grèce et Italie, sont des pays assez productifs, seulement plus faibles que les grandes puissances économique de l’Europe comme l’Allemagne, et l’Italie aussi est très endettée seulement car il y a une évasion fiscale intolérable. Donc, il serait raisonnable de couper en Amérique et de stimuler la production avec des dépenses d’Etat en Europe. Ça va sans dire, l’on fait le contraire. L’on fait le contraire pour ne toucher pas les grandes richesse.

In America, per esempio, i ricchi non pagano sostanzialmente tasse, però non usufruiscono di servizi pubblici; in Italia non pagano sostanzialmente tasse&lt;em&gt;, e insieme&lt;/em&gt; usufuriscono di servizi pubblici - l'evasioen fiscale si configura quindi come un gigantesco sussidio ai privilegiati.

Trovò appoggio nei gerarchi fascisti che nel gran consiglio del fascismo deposero il dittatore. Togliatti (essenzialmente), contro il parere dei liberali antifascisti, decise che le brigate partigiane allora formatesi dovessero combattere nel nome del re - essenzialmente per mantenere il Paese unito ed evitare una guerra civile. Il risultato è stato che 1) gli italiani di destra è convinta che Mussolini sia stato vittima di un tradimento da parte dei partigiani (e non dell'eterno opportunismo delle élites di destra); 2) gli italiani di sinistra non realizzano che il Paese ha perso la guerra, perché considerano solo gli ultimi due anni di questa; 3) il fatto che l'Italia sia stata sconfitta e che quello del re era solo un éscamotage è invece del tutto chiaro agli ex alleati Francia, Gran Bretagna e USA, che ci hanno trattato come semi-colonia fino al 1989. Il popolo italiano spesso nei momenti di crisi dà il meglio di sé; le élites all'idea di perdere i privilegi vengono prese dal panico ed elaborano dei papocchi che non hanno paragoni al mondo.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6386098032283015538-6247985595143917538?l=castorphans.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://castorphans.blogspot.com/feeds/6247985595143917538/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6386098032283015538&amp;postID=6247985595143917538' title='0 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6386098032283015538/posts/default/6247985595143917538'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6386098032283015538/posts/default/6247985595143917538'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://castorphans.blogspot.com/2011/09/la-vittoria-di-vittorio.html' title='La vittoria di Vittorio'/><author><name>Hans Castorp</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05016989070891441042</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='33' height='21' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_A9pBQk8upI8/SK0Vwt148OI/AAAAAAAAACI/lEhtzl9N4Vs/S220/IAVS4.JPG'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6386098032283015538.post-1525016083880376136</id><published>2011-09-11T12:05:00.002+02:00</published><updated>2011-09-11T12:10:03.894+02:00</updated><title type='text'>Euro</title><content type='html'>D'après le site web Mish's &lt;a href="http://globaleconomicanalysis.blogspot.com/2011/09/euro-death-wish-and-glogal-finger.html"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;: &lt;br /&gt;A Marseille a été convoquée une réunion du G7 pour discuter de la crise globale; "du moins les burocrate on realisé qu'il est impossible d'avoire une union monétaire sans une union fiscale.

In realtà la corruzione è molto più forte e diffusa nelle dittarure, solo che non si vede – anzi, proprio il fatto che non si vede la favorisce, insieme con il fatto che i dittatori tutelano il privilegio e l’arbitrio. Ricordo molti anni fa un film con Nino Manfredi, in cui un gerarca onesto, che si era avvicinato al fascismo per motivi ideali, per quanto sbagliati, si fosse accorto come gli altri gerarchi fossero ivnece diventati fascisti solamente perché quella posizione dava loro la possibilità di rubare a man bassa. Il film è un caso isolato, si è molto insistito sulla violenza e la soppressione della liebrtà, quando insistere sul dilagare della corruzione avrebbe forse fornito agli italiani un elemento che mancava loro – appunto, la corruzione nelle dittature non si vde. Ma credo che a quel punto il paragone con i democristiani sarebbe stato inevitabile, e tutti hanno preferito sorvolare.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6386098032283015538-9084692594728592164?l=castorphans.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://castorphans.blogspot.com/feeds/9084692594728592164/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6386098032283015538&amp;postID=9084692594728592164' title='0 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6386098032283015538/posts/default/9084692594728592164'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6386098032283015538/posts/default/9084692594728592164'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://castorphans.blogspot.com/2011/09/corruzione.html' title='Corruzione'/><author><name>Hans Castorp</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05016989070891441042</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='33' height='21' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_A9pBQk8upI8/SK0Vwt148OI/AAAAAAAAACI/lEhtzl9N4Vs/S220/IAVS4.JPG'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6386098032283015538.post-6552881842879969962</id><published>2011-09-06T09:27:00.002+02:00</published><updated>2011-09-06T09:33:30.043+02:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Streik'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Europa'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Italia'/><title type='text'>Streik</title><content type='html'>Heute is Generalstreik gegen die Okonomische Politik der Regierung.

This will cause a monetary implosion and a repeat of the 2008 disaster.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;He said the ECB’s restrictive policies over the last 18 months and the lack of EMU fiscal union have doomed the euro to certain break-up.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“It cannot be saved. Banks will suffer large losses,” he said.&lt;br /&gt;Embrace the Fact "Banks Cannot Be Saved"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This mess cannot be saved. Tim Condgon bemoans the fact. I say, embrace the fact!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Tim Congdon wants to kick the can down the road.

That means bondholders are going to take losses. It is nonsensical to assume anything but that. It is equally nonsensical to suggest there is a way around it. The sooner we embrace the simple facts of the matter, the better off everyone but the bondholders will be.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Attempts to shove more bailouts on the backs of already over-leveraged taxpayers will stunt the recovery for years more to come "&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6386098032283015538-7498987208489255258?l=castorphans.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://castorphans.blogspot.com/feeds/7498987208489255258/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6386098032283015538&amp;postID=7498987208489255258' title='0 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6386098032283015538/posts/default/7498987208489255258'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6386098032283015538/posts/default/7498987208489255258'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://castorphans.blogspot.com/2011/08/euro.html' title='Euro'/><author><name>Hans Castorp</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05016989070891441042</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='33' height='21' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_A9pBQk8upI8/SK0Vwt148OI/AAAAAAAAACI/lEhtzl9N4Vs/S220/IAVS4.JPG'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6386098032283015538.post-5837193629012306697</id><published>2011-08-28T10:18:00.002+02:00</published><updated>2011-08-28T10:20:36.702+02:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='particolare'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='italiani'/><title type='text'>Mediazione</title><content type='html'>Mediazione significa rinunciare a qualcosa in cambio di qualcos'altro da parte dell'altro; effettuiamo una mediazione quando per esempio acquistiamo qualcosa.

In Italy this is in part due to the prevalence of the humanistic culture and on the preponderance, until a few decades ago, of Croce phylosophy, that despised science. But the situation is not much different in the english-speaking countries. Even there, where great attention and funding is paid to science, writers and other humanists play a more important role in the society. Incidentallu, a day I was watching Margerita Hack on TV.  The astronomer is fascinating, but something was not convincing. After a little, I realized that she lacked a political perspective in her talk. A novelist, a poet, a philosopher, even when speaking of apparently neutral issues, such as love, &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;always &lt;/span&gt;have a political perspective, and in fact intellectuals are writers, since Voltaire and even Pico della Mirandola. This is not the case with scientists, with sparse exceptions, for instance information scientists or Noam Chomsky, or Jared Diamond and many other ecologists. This lack of political perspective dates back, unfortunately, to Galileo. Galileo was not satisfied with the prurely intellectual approach of Copernicus, that stated that his heliocentrism was a purely mathematical idea, and wanted instead to convince the Church of the philosophical and political importance of the subject, that changed completely the vision of the world of the Midlle Ages. The Church almost condemned him to death, and allowed to proceed with scientific research, provided that science had &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;no political implication. The Church &lt;/span&gt;was aware of the practical importance of scientific research, and of the danger of political implications. Nowadays, scientists complain for a reduced role, but inconsciously continue to separate science and politics.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6386098032283015538-2261780759259357840?l=castorphans.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://castorphans.blogspot.com/feeds/2261780759259357840/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6386098032283015538&amp;postID=2261780759259357840' title='0 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6386098032283015538/posts/default/2261780759259357840'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6386098032283015538/posts/default/2261780759259357840'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://castorphans.blogspot.com/2011/08/science-and-politics.html' title='Science and politics'/><author><name>Hans Castorp</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05016989070891441042</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='33' height='21' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_A9pBQk8upI8/SK0Vwt148OI/AAAAAAAAACI/lEhtzl9N4Vs/S220/IAVS4.JPG'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6386098032283015538.post-5047045916526443281</id><published>2011-08-27T09:11:00.002+02:00</published><updated>2011-08-27T09:13:41.497+02:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Libia'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Gheddafi'/><title type='text'>Libia</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/6/66/Flag_of_the_Libyan_Jamahiriya_1977.svg"&gt;&lt;img style="float: right; margin: 0pt 0pt 10px 10px; cursor: pointer; width: 200px; height: 100px;" src="http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/6/66/Flag_of_the_Libyan_Jamahiriya_1977.svg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Riusciremo dunque a far cadere - come è già avvenuto per l'Iraq - la Libia nelle mani di Al Qaeda?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6386098032283015538-5047045916526443281?l=castorphans.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://castorphans.blogspot.com/feeds/5047045916526443281/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6386098032283015538&amp;postID=5047045916526443281' title='0 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6386098032283015538/posts/default/5047045916526443281'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6386098032283015538/posts/default/5047045916526443281'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://castorphans.blogspot.com/2011/08/libia.html' title='Libia'/><author><name>Hans Castorp</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05016989070891441042</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='33' height='21' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_A9pBQk8upI8/SK0Vwt148OI/AAAAAAAAACI/lEhtzl9N4Vs/S220/IAVS4.JPG'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6386098032283015538.post-4841380686133513688</id><published>2011-08-22T09:26:00.004+02:00</published><updated>2011-08-22T09:34:53.950+02:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='arroganza'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Cipolla'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Cartesio'/><title type='text'>Nuoccio dunque sono</title><content type='html'>Quante volte capita che ti taglino la strada con rombandi Audi, o che parcheggino strettissimi dietro di se. Al maleducato non viene nessun vantaggio (dovrà fermarsi al semaforo e non guadagnerà certo spazio al parcheggio), però, infastidendoti, avrà fatto notare la sua esistenza. "Nuoccio dunque sono", è il principio che ha sostituito il motto cartesiano da quando pensare sembra essere diventato del tutto superfluo. L'automobile, che ci rende tutti più animaleschi, rivela particolarmente questa psicologia, che &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;sembra &lt;/span&gt;modellata su quella della sfrenata competizione capitalistica (e che però è, almeno nelle situazioni ideali, una competizione di idee), ma ha invece a che fare con il f enomeno visto tante volte in TV per cui, gli anonimi spettatori di un qualche evento televisivo, quando si accorgono di rientrare nell'inquadratura di un personaggio intervistato, alzano la manina per salutare. Anzi, se volessimo seguire la divertente e profonda analisi di Marco Cipolla, siamo pienamente nel campo dello stupido: il padrone delle ferriere danneggiava il lavoratore per avvantaggiare sé stesso, mentre colui che parcheggia stretto dietro di me danneggia me e &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;non &lt;/span&gt;avvantaggia sé stesso.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6386098032283015538-4841380686133513688?l=castorphans.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://castorphans.blogspot.com/feeds/4841380686133513688/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6386098032283015538&amp;postID=4841380686133513688' title='0 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6386098032283015538/posts/default/4841380686133513688'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6386098032283015538/posts/default/4841380686133513688'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://castorphans.blogspot.com/2011/08/nuoccio-dunque-sono.html' title='Nuoccio dunque sono'/><author><name>Hans Castorp</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05016989070891441042</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='33' height='21' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_A9pBQk8upI8/SK0Vwt148OI/AAAAAAAAACI/lEhtzl9N4Vs/S220/IAVS4.JPG'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6386098032283015538.post-1572873435218908746</id><published>2011-08-20T10:22:00.005+02:00</published><updated>2011-08-20T10:32:00.425+02:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Rinascimento'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='paesaggio'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Roma'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Berlusconi'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='arte'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Italia'/><title type='text'>Barbari</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://www.repubblica.it/gallerie/online/cultura_scienze/campagna/3_g.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="float: right; margin: 0pt 0pt 10px 10px; cursor: pointer; width: 243px; height: 155px;" src="http://www.repubblica.it/gallerie/online/cultura_scienze/campagna/3_g.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Qualche tempo fa scrissi un post su come fosse cambiato il paesaggio italiano (http://castorphans.blogspot.com/2010/06/paesaggio-italiano.html); va aggiunto che gli ultimi 15 anni  sono stati non dissimili dagli anni '50, gli anni del sacco di Roma. In quegli anni - politicamente così simili ai nostri - vennero cementificate le aree periferiche delle grandi città, nel caso di Roma distruggendo il magnifico paesaggio della Campagna Romana, oggi è stato annientato il paesaggio di borghi e campagne che caratterizzava tanta pare d'Italia e che faceva da sfondo ai quadri del Rinascimento. A Roma, Portuense, via della Muratella, che insieme ad altre strade del settore ovest e sud attraversavano un paesaggio rurale ancora del tutto simile a quello del XVII secolo, oggi sono un filare di capannoni e centri commerciali; in Veneto, la riviera del Brenta ha fatto la stessa fine.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6386098032283015538-1572873435218908746?l=castorphans.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://castorphans.blogspot.com/feeds/1572873435218908746/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6386098032283015538&amp;postID=1572873435218908746' title='0 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6386098032283015538/posts/default/1572873435218908746'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6386098032283015538/posts/default/1572873435218908746'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://castorphans.blogspot.com/2011/08/barbari.html' title='Barbari'/><author><name>Hans Castorp</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05016989070891441042</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='33' height='21' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_A9pBQk8upI8/SK0Vwt148OI/AAAAAAAAACI/lEhtzl9N4Vs/S220/IAVS4.JPG'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6386098032283015538.post-7174099006604053616</id><published>2011-08-17T09:23:00.004+02:00</published><updated>2011-08-17T09:27:07.778+02:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='aura'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='potere'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='arte'/><title type='text'>Aura</title><content type='html'>In a recent post I wrote that pieces of art that don't share power don't have aura.

The museum is dedicated to italian art after 1980, and I was impressed by the fact that the fine works here exposed are often very poetic, but they lack the aura that I instead found in a work of the Chapman - one of the two only foreign artists present. What is thus aura? The works of the italian artists were more creative, and the fightful figurines of Chapham are somewhat artistically cheap, but probaby they are more &lt;span style="FONT-STYLE: italic"&gt;relevant&lt;/span&gt;, since they tell us something important about the XXth century.

Les gouvernements et l’industrie misèrent donc sur l’exploitation intensive de cette ressource: avant tout, en stimulant l’émigration interne, et puis et surtout en s’appuyant sur une production industrielle de baisse qualité, mais peu coûteuse, grâce à cette force de travaille que l’on pouvait payer très peu. L’example parfait c’est la cinquecento, une voiture ingénieuse du point de vue méchanique et très peu coûteuse, mais minuscule, lente, assez dangereuse – très semblable aux voitures super-économique que maintenant l’Inde fabrique. Tout le monde reconnaîtra dans ce modèele, cette politique baisse qualité – bas salaires le modèle qui est suivi par la Chine aujourd’hui et qui pousse un boom chinois semblable au boom italien des années cinquante. Mais il y a une différence importante: en Chine on investit les revenues de cette croissance explosive dans l’instruction et la récherche, de façon que dans dix-ving ans, quand la politique des bas salaires ne séra plus faisable, la Chine passera d’une économie fondée sur les bas salaires à une économie mûre et de meilleure qualité, pas très différente de l’économie de l’Allemagne, qui est toujours, même dans cette période de crise globale, peut-être la plus competitive du monde. En Italie, nous avons continué avec la politique des bas salaires, sans passer à une économie plus mûre fondée sur les productions à fort taux d’innovation et de récherche, en confiant sur l’exportation à l’Allemagne et sur la soutien du marché intérieur par des politiques “keynesiennes” d’endettement, de dévaluatation de la lira, de déficit publique. L’on dira que la Chine a un marché intérieur immense – mais le marché Européen qui a representé la fortune du nord-est, mieux collegué à l’Europe centrlae que toute autre macro-région d’Italie, n’est pas petit. Et surtout il faut rappeler que au début des années ’60 il y a eu en Italie un tentatif de developper une structure industrielle fondée sur les ahutes téchnologies. L’example le plus connu c’est celui de Mattei, mais il ne faut pas oublier le cas de Natta et le dévéloppement important de la chemie, et même du nucléaire:l’Italie fût parmi les premiers Pays, avec l’Angleterer et les Etats Unis, à batirs des centrales nucléaires, à Latina et au Graigliano. Je suis un antinucléariste convaincu, mais la signification du nucléaire aux années ’50, bien avant la naissance d’une conscience environmentelle, a une signification bien différente qu’ aujourd’hui. Ce tentatif fût bloqué par les claisses politiques, je soupçonne du moins e partie sours préssion des Etats Unis, qui ne toléraint pas la concurrence italienne, et la mort tragique de Mattei en representa symboliquement l’éclipse.&lt;br /&gt;Et maintenant? La Chine, l’Inde, le Brésil, ont des salaire bien plus bas que l’Italie, l’euro empêche la dévalutation de la monnaie et réduit l’avantage des exporations italiennes en Allemagne – le nord-est presque totalemente déindustrialisé aujourd’hui. Il fallait, en 2000-2002, faire ce que l’on n’avait pas fait pendant les dernières 50 ans, de passer à une écononmie fondé sur linnovation. Je crains que désormais nous avons perdu ce train. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6386098032283015538-2986719995435636132?l=castorphans.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://castorphans.blogspot.com/feeds/2986719995435636132/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6386098032283015538&amp;postID=2986719995435636132' title='0 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6386098032283015538/posts/default/2986719995435636132'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6386098032283015538/posts/default/2986719995435636132'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://castorphans.blogspot.com/2011/08/bas-salaires.html' title='Bas-salaires'/><author><name>Hans Castorp</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05016989070891441042</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='33' height='21' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_A9pBQk8upI8/SK0Vwt148OI/AAAAAAAAACI/lEhtzl9N4Vs/S220/IAVS4.JPG'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6386098032283015538.post-2210737056228258175</id><published>2011-08-08T09:17:00.000+02:00</published><updated>2011-08-08T09:18:01.927+02:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='inconscio'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='super io'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='italiani'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='familismo amorale'/><title type='text'>Tu sei speciale perché sei mio figlio</title><content type='html'>Guardando i bambini di una qualsiasi famiglia italiana, mentre frignano, fanno i capricci, disturbano i vicini – come viene sottolineato dagli osservatori stranieri – non si può mancare di osservare nello sguardo compiaciuto dei genitori un messaggio che verrà inviato infinite volte nel corso della prima infanzia ai pargoletti: “tu sei speciale perché sei mio figlio”. Il messaggio è ambiguo: il bambino è speciale, ma in fondo di per sé non vale nulla, è speciale perché è figlio dei suoi genitori. Questo messaggio forse spiega il misto di vittimismo, di mancanza di fiducia in sé stesso – gli stranieri, specialmente francesi, ci disprezzano perché in guerra non ci buttiamo nel combattimento – che derivano dall’annullamento del figlio rispetto al genitori – e di narcisismo, supponenza, vanteria, che derivano dal fatto di essere “speciale”.&lt;br /&gt;Il messaggio rimane fondamentalmente inconscio. Quando l’infante non è più infante e comincia a parlare il padre si incarica della costruzione del super-io cosciente, impartendogli come preziosa massima di vita che deve pensare solo a sé stesso e che deve farsi strada a gomitate (nel caso migliore). E da qui l’inesistenza della dimensione collettiva in Italia – anche nelle persone di sinistra.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6386098032283015538-2210737056228258175?l=castorphans.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://castorphans.blogspot.com/feeds/2210737056228258175/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6386098032283015538&amp;postID=2210737056228258175' title='0 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6386098032283015538/posts/default/2210737056228258175'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6386098032283015538/posts/default/2210737056228258175'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://castorphans.blogspot.com/2011/08/tu-sei-speciale-perche-sei-mio-figlio.html' title='Tu sei speciale perché sei mio figlio'/><author><name>Hans Castorp</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05016989070891441042</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='33' height='21' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_A9pBQk8upI8/SK0Vwt148OI/AAAAAAAAACI/lEhtzl9N4Vs/S220/IAVS4.JPG'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6386098032283015538.post-4805600483355724689</id><published>2011-08-08T09:15:00.003+02:00</published><updated>2011-08-27T17:07:15.331+02:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Damien Hirst'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='painting'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Vélazquez'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Spain'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='arte'/><title type='text'>Vélazquez</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_8_ENa7sVpug/SeLNx1rC89I/AAAAAAAAD5Y/Fyie3A4opUc/s400/Velazquez_Portrait_of_Philip_IV.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; WIDTH: 318px; FLOAT: right; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_8_ENa7sVpug/SeLNx1rC89I/AAAAAAAAD5Y/Fyie3A4opUc/s400/Velazquez_Portrait_of_Philip_IV.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;Vélazquez’s paintings of mighty men are not flattering: the men of power are portrayed with inflated bellies, lumpy noses, prominent chins, bovine eyes. Vélazquez obviously didn’t like the power and thought that the power of art was much more mighty than the power of sword. Innocenzo X refused his portrait as too “realistic”, but this was not the case of the king of Spain, that instead encouraged and patronized Vélazquez. The message of the king was “it doesn’t matter if you portrait me as a semi-idiot, I am the king, and I will reign even if being an idiot.” But the last move was to Vélazquez. In his large painting “Las Meniñas” he portrays ... himself portraying the king – the king and the queen can be seen only in a glass in the centre of the painting. The mightiest is the artist, the king is secondary. Moreover, since it is evident that the king and the queen are opposite to the painter, outside the surface of the painting, any watcher can be considered to take the place of king – he who appreciates art is a king.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The provocations of Hirst are not much different, although much less ingenious. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6386098032283015538-4805600483355724689?l=castorphans.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://castorphans.blogspot.com/feeds/4805600483355724689/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6386098032283015538&amp;postID=4805600483355724689' title='0 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6386098032283015538/posts/default/4805600483355724689'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6386098032283015538/posts/default/4805600483355724689'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://castorphans.blogspot.com/2011/08/velazquez.html' title='Vélazquez'/><author><name>Hans Castorp</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05016989070891441042</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='33' height='21' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_A9pBQk8upI8/SK0Vwt148OI/AAAAAAAAACI/lEhtzl9N4Vs/S220/IAVS4.JPG'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_8_ENa7sVpug/SeLNx1rC89I/AAAAAAAAD5Y/Fyie3A4opUc/s72-c/Velazquez_Portrait_of_Philip_IV.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6386098032283015538.post-1617234920386356822</id><published>2011-07-24T09:23:00.002+02:00</published><updated>2011-07-24T09:27:44.600+02:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Napoleoni'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='debito pubblico'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Grecia'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='crisi'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Italia'/><title type='text'>Debito</title><content type='html'>Riporto quanto scritto da Loretta Napoleoni sull'ultimo "Venerdì" di Repubblica (p. 57): "Il nostro debito pubblico è pari al 120% del PIL (...) 1800 miliardi di euro.

The free masons symbolism of square and compass and the famous painting of the creation where god is represented as an architect is based on this idea. A corollary to the idea is that the architect - not the painter nor the sculptor, that create only &lt;em&gt;images &lt;/em&gt;of the world - is like god. The idea is still among us: if you are acquainted with architects you certainly had the feeling that they believe to be able to do everything - to be omni-potent. But science, that rised at the &lt;em&gt;end &lt;/em&gt;of the Reinessance - has told us that the structure of the world - and therefore the ability to modify it or even create things - is based on certain mathematical relationships among the parts - in some way Pythagorean conceptions are at the base of our modern vision of the world, and it is no case that Kepler was guided by Pythagorean principles in the discovery of the laws of motion of planets. Drawing as nothing to do with these mathematical relationships, although it can suggest them, and this explains why archtitect believe they can do everything but usually are able to do nothing - often not even buildings.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6386098032283015538-4186136422897100548?l=castorphans.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://castorphans.blogspot.com/feeds/4186136422897100548/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6386098032283015538&amp;postID=4186136422897100548' title='0 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6386098032283015538/posts/default/4186136422897100548'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6386098032283015538/posts/default/4186136422897100548'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://castorphans.blogspot.com/2011/07/drawing.html' title='Drawing'/><author><name>Hans Castorp</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05016989070891441042</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='33' height='21' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_A9pBQk8upI8/SK0Vwt148OI/AAAAAAAAACI/lEhtzl9N4Vs/S220/IAVS4.JPG'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6386098032283015538.post-6503673573476242573</id><published>2011-07-22T16:19:00.007+02:00</published><updated>2011-07-22T16:39:18.073+02:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Colosseo'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Roma'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Ara Pacis'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='committente'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='razionalismo'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Meier'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='architettura'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Veltroni'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='travertino'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='PD'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Chiesa'/><title type='text'>Meier</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3037/3004564526_5761a337c8.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; WIDTH: 180px; FLOAT: right; HEIGHT: 157px; CURSOR: hand" border="0" alt="" src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3037/3004564526_5761a337c8.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;I recentrly visited the "Jubilaeum church" of Richard Meier in Tor Tre Teste, in the suburbs of Rome. Simply perfect, and the comparison of this church with the "Ara pacis", that is not a very successful building, imposes a couple of consideration. The first is that the commisioner of a building &lt;em&gt;does &lt;/em&gt;matter: the Church has a little more experience than Walter Veltroni in art and architecture. The second is that the leftist government of Rome of the former years wanted to break drastically with the past in inserting a modernist intervention in the fundamentally baroque urban tissue of the centre of Rome - but at the same time asked Meier not to break too drastically with the case that dated to the '30s of the last century and was a modest example of fascist rationalism -so that the german architect was obliged to reconcile his "lecorbuserian" conception with the fascist pompous attitude, he had to mantain more or less the original proportion and the organization of the ceiling, he had to build a wall of travertine - travertine was much loved by fascists because it reminded the Colosseum, but originally travertine was a relatively poor material that was hidden - in the Colosseum and elseqhere, by wonderfully coloured marbles ....

Il corrispettivo concreto dei concetti astratti di libertà e uguaglianza si estrinseca in due domande: 1) come assicurare il benessere all’intera collettività? 2) è auspicabile che il potere sia del popolo? Per comprendere bene questi due punti, occorre partire dalla condizioni effettive. Per quanto riguarda 1) ce ne siamo abbastana dimenticati, ma fino agli anni ’50 la norma per la stragrande maggioranza degli uomini – per quelli che vivevano di lavoro - era la miseria. Con gli anni ’50 si passa alla società dell’opulenza - in Occidente, perché nel resto del mondo il passaggio sta avvendeno proprio in questi anni. E anche se il capitalismo scricchiola e le problematiche ambientali diventano sempre più urgenti, per ora non ci sono segni che questa sia destinata a finire - vedremo. I paesi del socialismo reale non sono riusciti a passare all’opulenza, e questo li ha condannati a morte, tenendo anche conto che l’argomento con cui Marx giustificava la superiorità del comunismo non era la cattiveria dei capitalisti (argomento piccoloborghese), ma (all’incirca) che il comunismo garantirebbe una maggiore produttività rispetto al capitalismo (per capire esattamente cosa intendeva Marx va tenuto conto tuttavia che comunismo non è la stessa cosa di socialismo, ciò che effettivamente poi è stato realizzato). Il punto 2 parte dall’osservazione che il potere, in tutti i Paesi, è saldamente nelle mani di élites, e nelle mani di élites burocratiche era anche nei Paesi del socialismo reale, che vedevano come la peste quello che in teoria sarebbe stato il programma, cioè il potere dei soviet. Del resto, i tentativi ripetuti di Mao di dare il potere al popolo si sono rivelati disastrosi, il che sembrerebbe suffragare la risposta negativa alla domanda 2 su cui concordano liberali e comunisti storici.

Identificando i primi con gli impiegati, i secondi con gli operai (il che è una supersemplificazione e si presta anche a critiche importanti, in quanto la distinzione tra borghesi e proletari passa piuttosto tra chi vive di lavoro e chi no, con i piccolo borghese in una posizione intermedia), e in base a un’analisi più psicologica che politica, il carattere degli impiegati si caratterizza per la falsa coscienza e per una certa difficoltà nel relazionarsi serenametne con gli altri, quella degli operai per l’affabilità e la socievolezza. I sottoproletari in questo assomigliano curiosamente per certi versi agli impiegati. La spiegazione usuale è il carattere socializzante della fabbrica rispetto a quello individualistico del lavoro impiegatizio. Tuttavia credo che sia più importante il rapporto tra spirito e corpo, che è stretto in chi usa le mani, e invece scisso in chi lavora con la penna (non si può dire col cervello, spesso, in quanto il lavoro impiegatizio è altrettanto ripetitivo di quello di un operaio, spesso di più).&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6386098032283015538-13358865683557379?l=castorphans.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://castorphans.blogspot.com/feeds/13358865683557379/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6386098032283015538&amp;postID=13358865683557379' title='0 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6386098032283015538/posts/default/13358865683557379'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6386098032283015538/posts/default/13358865683557379'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://castorphans.blogspot.com/2011/06/proletari.html' title='Proletari'/><author><name>Hans Castorp</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05016989070891441042</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='33' height='21' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_A9pBQk8upI8/SK0Vwt148OI/AAAAAAAAACI/lEhtzl9N4Vs/S220/IAVS4.JPG'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6386098032283015538.post-4951269915746997370</id><published>2011-06-26T09:15:00.001+02:00</published><updated>2011-06-26T09:19:24.385+02:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='latino'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Eneide'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='indoeuropeo'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Giovanni Semeraro'/><title type='text'>Semeraro II</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://www.mantovanotizie.com/wp-content/uploads/Incisione-Eneide-Pinelli.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; WIDTH: 250px; FLOAT: right; HEIGHT: 195px; CURSOR: hand" border="0" alt="" src="http://www.mantovanotizie.com/wp-content/uploads/Incisione-Eneide-Pinelli.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;L’osservazione di Semeraro che molte radici latine sono in realtà assai simili a termini accadici conduce quest’autore a ipotizzare un’origine di tutte le lingue dall’accadico. Che l’accadico sia alla radice almeno della superfamiglia nostratica, che comprende lingue indoeuropee e semitiche è plausibilissimo – anche se Semeraro sembra propendere per un albero geneaologico simile ai raggi di una ruota, in cui le varie lingue derivano direttamente da un antenato accadico senza passaggi intermedi, dico sembra perché non è affatto chiaro cosa pensi della genesi delle lingue. Le radici individuate da Semeraro per il latino sono però soprattutto – almeno quello convincenti, perché molte etimologie da lui proposte sembano assai deboli – nomi di località, mentre le radici classicamente indoeuropee – filius, pater ecc. – non sembrano avere corrispettivi accadici – sembra, perché Semeraro ancora una volta non le discute, secondo un uso ben consolidato tra i fautori di una “scienza alternativa” ma diffuso un po’ fra tutti di non parlare di ciò che cotnraddice la teoria. E’ possibile, quindi, che si tratti di prestiti da una lingua preesistente, per cui il latino deriverebbe dalla fusione di una lingua indoeuropea con una non indoeuropea. Del resto il mito che sta alla base dell'Eneide dice proprio che la stirpe di Roma deriva dalla fusione dei latini (indoeuropei) con i troiani non indoeuropei (sembra parlassero una lingua simile al frigio).&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6386098032283015538-4951269915746997370?l=castorphans.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://castorphans.blogspot.com/feeds/4951269915746997370/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6386098032283015538&amp;postID=4951269915746997370' title='0 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6386098032283015538/posts/default/4951269915746997370'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6386098032283015538/posts/default/4951269915746997370'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://castorphans.blogspot.com/2011/06/semeraro-iii.html' title='Semeraro II'/><author><name>Hans Castorp</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05016989070891441042</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='33' height='21' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_A9pBQk8upI8/SK0Vwt148OI/AAAAAAAAACI/lEhtzl9N4Vs/S220/IAVS4.JPG'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6386098032283015538.post-1439367493012348377</id><published>2011-06-26T09:09:00.003+02:00</published><updated>2011-06-26T09:15:56.216+02:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Napoleoni'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='monetarismo'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Keynes'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='crise économique'/><title type='text'>Liquidité</title><content type='html'>Je lisais l’article “follow the money” de Napoleoni dans le “Venerdì di Repubblica”, qui soulignait le paradoxe d’une période où l’economie stagne, les bilans des étaux sont en souffrance, pas seulement ceux de l’Europe mais aussi celui des Etats Unis, gravé par les plans de sauvetage des banques qui risquaient le default, et pourtant il ya une liquidité énorme dans les casses des grandes corporations. Napoleoni y voit une malice des corporations, mais du point de voie strictement économique, il s’agît d’une sorte de trappe, où les entreprises n’investissent pas car il n’y a pas de demande suffisante, et la faute d’investissements empeche l’expansion de l’économie et donc de la demande. Il faut ajouter que les entreprises émettents des bonds qui ont une redditivité très haute, et que somme toute ils ont deplacé leur activité de la production à la finance. L’on ne peut pas sortire de cette trappe par les méthodes triditionaux, ni keynesiens, car le déficit est déja énorme, et une augmentation des dépenses publiques porte à une augmentation de l’inflation seulement sans croissance, ni monétaires, car le cout de la monnaie est déja très base, presque zero aux Etats Unis. Il y a toutefois la solution d'augmenter la taxation, surtout aux Etats Unis où son poids est presque nulle – mais cela trouve une forte opposition des entreprises, bien sûr, et surtout une opposition idéologique, après vingt-ans où la taxation a été abusivement consideré la mère de tous les dommages économiques.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6386098032283015538-1439367493012348377?l=castorphans.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://castorphans.blogspot.com/feeds/1439367493012348377/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6386098032283015538&amp;postID=1439367493012348377' title='0 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6386098032283015538/posts/default/1439367493012348377'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6386098032283015538/posts/default/1439367493012348377'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://castorphans.blogspot.com/2011/06/liquidite.html' title='Liquidité'/><author><name>Hans Castorp</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05016989070891441042</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='33' height='21' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_A9pBQk8upI8/SK0Vwt148OI/AAAAAAAAACI/lEhtzl9N4Vs/S220/IAVS4.JPG'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6386098032283015538.post-6792148240408945264</id><published>2011-06-26T09:06:00.002+02:00</published><updated>2011-06-26T09:09:27.612+02:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='socialdemocrazia'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='debito pubblico'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='euro'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='comunismo'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Italia'/><title type='text'>Socialdémocratie</title><content type='html'>Hélas, ils ont devisé de détruires les social-démocraties, qui ont l’étrange prérogativa d’être l’Antichriste pour la gauche extrème, et indistinguable du communisme pour les “libéraux”.

Credo che queste psicosi nascano dal desiderio di tenere tutto sotto controllo. Per cui quando avviene qualcosa di negativo non è più concepibile che si tratti semplicemente di qualcosa che sfugge al controllo umano, di qualcosa di imprevedibile o ineluttabile, ma deve esserci stata omissione, deve esserci un complotto della "scienza ufficiale" teso a occultare i risultati del sismologo non diplomato Bendandi - un persona stregonesca ma per altro intelligente.

Quello che però trovo eccezionale, è la musica. Si tratta di frammenti musicali di scarto, recuperati da altre canzoni, assolutamente banali e scontate, che però l’artista arrangia in modo da dargli un senso altamente poetico – in modo molto simile a diversi pittori che crean opere meravigliose fatte di immondizia e rifiuti. L’operazione, oltre a ridare vita a pezzi di musica sostanzialmente morti, credo sia alla base dell’estrema popolarità di Battiato, molto amato da dj e da fruitori di musica assai naif che probabilmente neanche ascoltano pieneamente i testi.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6386098032283015538-6239277174182391410?l=castorphans.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://castorphans.blogspot.com/feeds/6239277174182391410/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6386098032283015538&amp;postID=6239277174182391410' title='0 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6386098032283015538/posts/default/6239277174182391410'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6386098032283015538/posts/default/6239277174182391410'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://castorphans.blogspot.com/2011/06/battiato.html' title='Battiato'/><author><name>Hans Castorp</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05016989070891441042</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='33' height='21' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_A9pBQk8upI8/SK0Vwt148OI/AAAAAAAAACI/lEhtzl9N4Vs/S220/IAVS4.JPG'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6386098032283015538.post-4264660834685857214</id><published>2011-06-06T18:04:00.001+02:00</published><updated>2011-06-06T18:05:37.420+02:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Radical-chic'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Serena Dandini'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='borghesia'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='giardinaggio'/><title type='text'>Dai diamanti non nasce niente</title><content type='html'>Ho letto con divertimento il libro di Serena Dandini “Dai Diamanti non ansce niente” sulla sua passione per i giardini.

L’articolo parlava dell’uso della neuroimmagine in tribunale, sostenendo in sostanza che la seconda persona non era colpevole per la sua disonestà, in quanto la colpa era del cervello. Si sentono spesso argomentazioni simili riguardo alla neurobiologia, però penso che sostanzialmente confondano la causa con l’effetto: non l’attiità di quella parte del cervello che “causa” la disonestà. Ma è la disoentà che attiva quella parte del cervello. Il tutto nasce da una malintesa idea del materialismo e della scientificità; i biologi pensano che le cose immateriali, come l’onestà, non esistano, e che se uno non cerca la localizzazione fisica di queste ultime sia costretto a ricorrere a concetti religiosi o agli ectoplasmi. Ma in fisica e in altre scienze esatte esiste una pletora di enti immateriali – forza, energia, spazio delle fasi, entropia – che hanno conseguenze materiali fondamentali – la fisica è difficile perché è estremamente astratta – per esempio, l’energia è una relazione matematica tra alcune grandezze fisiche, non ha nulla a che vedere con le scintille che si vedono in film come “Guerre Stellari” (in un fulmine la luce non viene emessa dall’elettricità, ma dagli atomi d’aria che vengono ionizzati). I biologi (non parliamo dei medici) hanno una formazione matematica alquanto superficiale (con l’eccezione dei genetisti di popolazione e una parte degli ecologi) e mi sembra che non riescano a capire fino in fondo che le relazioni tra oggetti materiali sono altrettanto “reali” degli oggetti stessi; per tornare al cervello, il software, che è un insieme di istruzioni, quindi qualcosa di immateriale, comanda all’hardawre, e non viceversa; nel cervello la cosa è più complicata, perché, nel cervello non c’è distinzione tra softare e hardware; il software infatti consiste in una serie di connessioni tra neuroni, tra l’altro altamente plastiche che si modificano con l’uso.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6386098032283015538-1408514712253943341?l=castorphans.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://castorphans.blogspot.com/feeds/1408514712253943341/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6386098032283015538&amp;postID=1408514712253943341' title='0 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6386098032283015538/posts/default/1408514712253943341'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6386098032283015538/posts/default/1408514712253943341'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://castorphans.blogspot.com/2011/06/libero-arbitrio.html' title='Libero arbitrio'/><author><name>Hans Castorp</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05016989070891441042</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='33' height='21' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_A9pBQk8upI8/SK0Vwt148OI/AAAAAAAAACI/lEhtzl9N4Vs/S220/IAVS4.JPG'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6386098032283015538.post-8887377524053697236</id><published>2011-03-05T18:08:00.004+01:00</published><updated>2011-03-05T18:10:32.587+01:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='cristianesimo'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Agostino'/><title type='text'>Dottrina</title><content type='html'>Il cristianesimo primitivo, nelle sue varie declinazioni, parecchie diventate eresie (come lo gnosticismo), altre inglobate nell'evidente pluralismo dei testi canonici (paolini, giovannei, giudeocristiani ecc.), era comunque un &lt;em&gt;percorso spirituale&lt;/em&gt;, talvolta anche iniziatico.

I had occasion to observe it closely for a long period. It changes poetically its colour with weather conditions and the large glasses of the windows reflect the clouds of the sky. The strong shadows of the "holes" change ceaselessly with the time of the day. In summary, apart its obvious metaphysic character, it interacts with the surrounding environment in a fascinating way. The only problem is, that its volumes are useless for living, work, exposition, any other practical use. In other words, it is not architecture, but an (oversized) installation. Considering that perhaps the first recognized installations are by Fontana fifteen years later, quite an interesting piece of art.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6386098032283015538-7265727891157032838?l=castorphans.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://castorphans.blogspot.com/feeds/7265727891157032838/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6386098032283015538&amp;postID=7265727891157032838' title='0 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6386098032283015538/posts/default/7265727891157032838'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6386098032283015538/posts/default/7265727891157032838'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://castorphans.blogspot.com/2011/03/colosseo-quadrato.html' title='Colosseo Quadrato'/><author><name>Hans Castorp</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05016989070891441042</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='33' height='21' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_A9pBQk8upI8/SK0Vwt148OI/AAAAAAAAACI/lEhtzl9N4Vs/S220/IAVS4.JPG'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6386098032283015538.post-6868400699624783408</id><published>2011-02-26T09:33:00.003+01:00</published><updated>2011-02-26T09:59:21.651+01:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='USA'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Bush'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='crise économique'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='endettemente'/><title type='text'>crise globale</title><content type='html'>La crise globale a été causé par les instruments de finance derivés et par les titres "toxiques" - cela récite la sagesse conventionnelle. En realité, le systeme un peu baroque de la finance derivée avait deux but: 1) financer le système économique américain, qui avait cessé d'etre en équilibre depuis longtemps, depuis, du moins, le 1975; 2).financer les guerres en Iraq et en Afghanistan, qui ont été les plus couteuses de l'histoire.  Encore, le système de la finance derivée était possible seulement car la Federal Reserve créait continuellement de la monnai en baissant les taux et en jouant avec les taux d'échange avec les autres monnaies - avec le résultat net d'un flux de monnai de l'Europe à l'Amérique.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Pur ce qui concerne le premier point, le système économique américaine a pratiquement cessé de croitre quand la frontière s'est fermée. Depuis, la croissance a été soutenue avec des mesures keynesiennes d'endettement publique, mais cela a fonctionnée à peu-près jusqu'au 1975, quand ces mesures ont abouti à une inflaction exponentielle, qui a porté a la fin de la parité dollar-or par Nixon - sur le web il y a une grande discussion sur le role de la monnai qui reconnait l'importance de la fin da la parité or mais qui ne met pas au point la question. Il y a eu après la tentative de libéralisation de Reagan, qui a abouti à la crise de la moitié des '80. et qui a été suivie par la nouvelle politique - inauguré par Clinton - qui est substantiellement une politique d'endettement keynesien, mais qui jou sur le fait que les dettes sont paiés par l'Europe et non par les Etats Unis. Cela est possible car aux USA on crée une énorme quantité de monnaie en baissant les taux, ce qui corréspond à un endettement, mais les dettes sont paiés par l'Europe à travers le taux d'échange du dollar qui est défavorable pour les monnaies européennes, euro compris est qui resulte, comme l'on disait, dans un flux de richesse de l'Europe aux USA.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;La finance derivée entrait dans le cadre, car elle a connu un très grand developpement avec la fin de la parité or à la moitié des '70 (la formule de Black-Scholes qui détermine la valeur des derivés date due 1973). Elle est nécessaire pour la création et surtout pour la distribution de monnaie.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Le système fonctionnait assez bien, avec des crises pas très grandes, s'il n y avait eu la guerre en Iraq et en Afghanistan voulu par la bande de Bush. L'Amérique comprenait que sa domination politique et économique était en crise, et relancait en attaquant le coeur de l'Asie. Mais ces guerres ont eu des couts exorbitants, qui ont obligé à accélerer la création de monnaie - jusqu'au point que le système trop forcé s'est retrouvé les quatre fers à l'air.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6386098032283015538-6868400699624783408?l=castorphans.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://castorphans.blogspot.com/feeds/6868400699624783408/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6386098032283015538&amp;postID=6868400699624783408' title='0 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6386098032283015538/posts/default/6868400699624783408'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6386098032283015538/posts/default/6868400699624783408'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://castorphans.blogspot.com/2011/02/crise-globale.html' title='crise globale'/><author><name>Hans Castorp</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05016989070891441042</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='33' height='21' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_A9pBQk8upI8/SK0Vwt148OI/AAAAAAAAACI/lEhtzl9N4Vs/S220/IAVS4.JPG'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6386098032283015538.post-5847749027398145787</id><published>2011-02-15T17:21:00.002+01:00</published><updated>2011-02-15T17:23:07.134+01:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Tremonti'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='cultura'/><title type='text'>la volpe e l'uva</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_VeY1lK00DzY/ST1BvkC6xGI/AAAAAAAAAxs/J9l1Ud79fiY/s400/T241654A.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; WIDTH: 237px; FLOAT: right; HEIGHT: 266px; CURSOR: hand" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_VeY1lK00DzY/ST1BvkC6xGI/AAAAAAAAAxs/J9l1Ud79fiY/s400/T241654A.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;E' diventata famosa quella di Tremonti che la cultura non si mangia.

This led to a general decadence of art, and to very discussed artists, such as Jeff Koons and Damien Hirst. Of course, this is another consequence of the spread of neoliberism following Thatcher and Reagan political attack to the left - 60's and 70's artists were almost unfailingly leftists - but art has always been related to money, since artworks are &lt;em&gt;actually &lt;/em&gt;luxury commodities, with a monetary value not different from jewels and gold; and artist often have been very rich and, in the case of Michelangelo, even greedy. But I believe that in the late XX century decadence of art another, apparently secondary but determinant factor plays a major role. In the golden era of avant-guards innovative artists were discovered and sponsored mainly by intelligent amateurs, often rich capitalists with a passion for art. For instance, impressionism was firs recognized by rich people with a non-professional interest in art, and the largest collections - that of Ermitage for instance - have been gathered by such amateurs. These amateurs were guided by their taste and instinct, and brought into the market of art the love for risk and innovation typical of intelligent entrepreneurs (at least until a few decades ago). Love for art was usually not distinct from love for risky but profitable investments.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;In the late XX century, in the era of the market of art, buyers spend their money following neither their taste nor the expectation of large returns, but following the advice of experts often with an academic formation. And it is well known since at least the satire of Gargantua and Pantagruel that academicians are, with few exceptions, conformists, do not like risk, cannot see true innovation, pedantic and above all have a love for uninfluential details. In a word, the art of late XXth century is not the art of market - it has always been so - but the art of academic commonplace.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6386098032283015538-873725568088782944?l=castorphans.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://castorphans.blogspot.com/feeds/873725568088782944/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6386098032283015538&amp;postID=873725568088782944' title='1 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6386098032283015538/posts/default/873725568088782944'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6386098032283015538/posts/default/873725568088782944'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://castorphans.blogspot.com/2011/02/connoiseurs.html' title='Connoisseurs'/><author><name>Hans Castorp</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05016989070891441042</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='33' height='21' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_A9pBQk8upI8/SK0Vwt148OI/AAAAAAAAACI/lEhtzl9N4Vs/S220/IAVS4.JPG'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6386098032283015538.post-761471151582920416</id><published>2011-02-13T09:27:00.007+01:00</published><updated>2011-02-13T09:41:48.043+01:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='gollismo'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Mitterrand'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='populismo'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Berlusconi'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='anarchia'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Crispi'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='coazione a ripetere'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Mussolini'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Francia'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='destra'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Craxi'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Italia'/><title type='text'>Ricorrenza</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://www.fmboschetto.it/Utopiaucronia/Nouivelle_France/Napoleone_III.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; WIDTH: 234px; FLOAT: right; HEIGHT: 315px; CURSOR: hand" border="0" alt="" src="http://www.fmboschetto.it/Utopiaucronia/Nouivelle_France/Napoleone_III.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;Molti contrappongono a un'Italia di destra una Francia della Rivoluzione. In realtà, in Francia la destra, dalla Vandée a Monsignor Lefebvre è da sempre fortissima; se consideriamo i governi della quinta repubblica abbiamo una sequenza quasi ininterrotta di gollisti con la parentesi del massone socialista Mitterrand. Quello che colpisce dell'Italia non è tanto il fatto che la sinistra non sia mai andata al potere se non per pochi anni in tutto con Prodi - e in una larga coalizione - quanto la ricorrenza di personaggi quasi sovrapponibili come Crispi, Mussolini, Craxi e Berlusconi. Si tratta, più che di destra, di populismo, espressione dell'antipatia (tutto sommato non insana) per i governanti , che a destra si esprime come populismo e qualunquismo, e a sinistra come inclinazione anarchica più o meno accentuata. Anche i francesi hanno avuto un populismo autoritario, quello di Napoleone III, che è anche durato molto a lungo ed è finito con una disfatta militare come finiscono questi regimi (altri finiscono per una disfatta economica); dopo di che, sono rimasti immunizzati e hanno avuto destre, ma sempre democratiche. Quello che stupisce dell'italia è la coazione a ripetere, l'incapacità di guarire, l'impossibilità di imparare dagli errori.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6386098032283015538-761471151582920416?l=castorphans.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://castorphans.blogspot.com/feeds/761471151582920416/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6386098032283015538&amp;postID=761471151582920416' title='0 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6386098032283015538/posts/default/761471151582920416'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6386098032283015538/posts/default/761471151582920416'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://castorphans.blogspot.com/2011/02/ricorrenza.html' title='Ricorrenza'/><author><name>Hans Castorp</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05016989070891441042</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='33' height='21' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_A9pBQk8upI8/SK0Vwt148OI/AAAAAAAAACI/lEhtzl9N4Vs/S220/IAVS4.JPG'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6386098032283015538.post-1284051209445243320</id><published>2011-02-01T08:14:00.003+01:00</published><updated>2011-02-01T08:18:42.397+01:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Aldous Huxley'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Riforma protestante'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Chiesa'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Italia'/><title type='text'>Brave New World</title><content type='html'>Nel romanzo &lt;em&gt;Brave New World&lt;/em&gt; (il Mondo Nuovo) Aldous Huxley descrive un mondo in cui sono stati cancellati tutti i libri e le persone fin da appena nate vengono sottoposte a un continuo lavaggio del cervello.

La cosa era stata ripresa anche da alcuni intellettuali fascisti dei più intelligenti (o meno stupidi) che rendendosi conto che non potevamo certo rivendicarci la purezza della razza, sostenevano al contrario che la superiorità italiana era dovuta all'aver fuso greci e latini.

They correctly address the problem that resources are not infinite, and that it is necessary to begin to reason about the decrease of the richness of the world. The ideas of these people meet those of the environmentalist, in particular the old idea sponsored in particular by WWF, that GIP doens't consider environmental assets and that it is necessaty to consider in economical polithisc also the &lt;em&gt;ecological footprint&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;The fact that we are consuming more resources than are available in the world and that growth cannot increase indefenitely are self-evident, and most countries in the world (not Italy) are considering seriously these problems. Nonetheless, I think that this line of reasoning is incomplete.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;1) Rent is distributed very unequally among people, in particular in countries such as USA, UK and Italy (much less so in Germany. Sweden and other social-democratic countries). In the United States, 10% of the population own (and consume) about 90% of the national wealth. This means that should the remaining 90% of the people halve their income, the GIP and therefore the consumption of resources would decrease globally only by 5%. To my knowledge this arithmetical fact has not been even considered. It means that reducing inequalities of income - a traditional aim of the socialists - can reduce the consumption of resources without touching anyway the standard of living of people and even increasing the average income per person. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;2) The supporters of the footprint have understood the fundamental yet rarely appreciated that GBP measures &lt;em&gt;income &lt;/em&gt;and not &lt;em&gt;assets&lt;/em&gt;; boradly speaking, GBP depend on the &lt;em&gt;increase &lt;/em&gt;of assets, and not on asset in itself. Referring to the well known logistic curve, GBP is proportional to the &lt;em&gt;tangent &lt;/em&gt;to the curve, whereas any point of the curve is the asset in a give moment of time. Growth at the beginning is slow, in the middle part is rapid, at the carrying capacity it is slow again, but now the assets are enormously larger than at the beginning. The supporters of the idea of the happy decrease do not stress the fact that we can decrease the growth without decreasing the asset - we can be very rich without increasing our richness. Of course this means a &lt;em&gt;complete &lt;/em&gt;rearrangement f the economic, since in free market economy profits - the engine of the economic system - depend fundamentally on the increase of assets and not on assets &lt;em&gt;per se&lt;/em&gt;(this is the reason why GBP, although obviously faulty, is fundamental in economy).&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6386098032283015538-941834621668780883?l=castorphans.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://castorphans.blogspot.com/feeds/941834621668780883/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6386098032283015538&amp;postID=941834621668780883' title='0 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6386098032283015538/posts/default/941834621668780883'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6386098032283015538/posts/default/941834621668780883'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://castorphans.blogspot.com/2011/01/happy-decrease.html' title='Happy decrease'/><author><name>Hans Castorp</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05016989070891441042</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='33' height='21' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_A9pBQk8upI8/SK0Vwt148OI/AAAAAAAAACI/lEhtzl9N4Vs/S220/IAVS4.JPG'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6386098032283015538.post-2305328919647168795</id><published>2011-01-20T17:05:00.003+01:00</published><updated>2011-01-20T17:07:38.497+01:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='idiozia'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='italiani'/><title type='text'>Idiozia</title><content type='html'>In greco idiotes deriva da idios (sé stesso) e significa: "colui che pensa solo a sé stesso", ovvero colui che non pensa alla cosa pubblica ovvero qualunquista.

Of course, the fascist regime contracted only excellent architects, the rationalism of Libera and Michelucci was very "modern" with respect to the current architecture of the time, but buildings such as the Palazzo delle Poste in via Marmorata and Ostia, although quite nice, sounds to me rather false. The main problem is &lt;em&gt;size&lt;/em&gt;: the moderately large buildings of Latina and Sabaudia, although somewhat rethoric, retain reasonable proportions and are quite tolerable; the huge buildings of Rome put everything out of scale. In particular, the immense Morpurgo's Palazzo della Farnesina is a perfect representation of the illusory ambitions of the regime: a secondary power, with few colonies, a stunted economy and inconsistent army, with the ambition to compete with countries such as England or the United States; the Palazzo della Farnesina seems a puppy dog barking at a big mastiff. Morevoer, such enormous proportions are completely unfunctional: the exact opposite of true rationalism, and something that reminds instead the pompous architecture of late XIX century ("architettura umbertina"); fascist architecture is fundamentally the provincial umbertine architecture in the squared cloths of European rationalism - exactly as the fascist regime was a conservative provincial regime boasting to be revolutionary.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6386098032283015538-7041543136737777787?l=castorphans.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://castorphans.blogspot.com/feeds/7041543136737777787/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6386098032283015538&amp;postID=7041543136737777787' title='0 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6386098032283015538/posts/default/7041543136737777787'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6386098032283015538/posts/default/7041543136737777787'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://castorphans.blogspot.com/2011/01/fascist-architecture.html' title='Fascist architecture'/><author><name>Hans Castorp</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05016989070891441042</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='33' height='21' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_A9pBQk8upI8/SK0Vwt148OI/AAAAAAAAACI/lEhtzl9N4Vs/S220/IAVS4.JPG'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6386098032283015538.post-4289361351486966337</id><published>2011-01-20T16:32:00.005+01:00</published><updated>2011-01-20T17:09:17.138+01:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Impero Romano'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Chiesa'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Italia'/><title type='text'>Chiesa</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://roma-web.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/piazza_san_pietro.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; WIDTH: 333px; FLOAT: right; HEIGHT: 274px; CURSOR: hand" border="0" alt="" src="http://roma-web.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/piazza_san_pietro.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;Si imputa spesso alla Chiesa di mescolare il potere temporale con il potere spirituale.

Il problema vero è che mentre Stati Uniti, Gran Bretagna, Francia ecc. sono stati nazionali, la Chiesa cattolica è un'entità universale; ci troviamo quindi nella situazione di avere un debole stato nazionale che ospita un potente impero universale (del resto la Chiesa è l'erede diretto dell'Impero Romano); un impero e uno stato nazionale non potranno mai avere rapporti equilibrati, come invece tutto sommato hanno per esempio Sati Uniti e Italia nonostante l'enorme disparità di peso politico ed economico.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6386098032283015538-4289361351486966337?l=castorphans.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://castorphans.blogspot.com/feeds/4289361351486966337/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6386098032283015538&amp;postID=4289361351486966337' title='0 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6386098032283015538/posts/default/4289361351486966337'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6386098032283015538/posts/default/4289361351486966337'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://castorphans.blogspot.com/2011/01/chiesa.html' title='Chiesa'/><author><name>Hans Castorp</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05016989070891441042</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='33' height='21' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_A9pBQk8upI8/SK0Vwt148OI/AAAAAAAAACI/lEhtzl9N4Vs/S220/IAVS4.JPG'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6386098032283015538.post-3251396769923785120</id><published>2010-11-30T14:54:00.008+01:00</published><updated>2010-11-30T15:14:53.467+01:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='centralismo democratico'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='partecipazione'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='politica'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Fabio Fazio'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Massimo D&apos;Alema'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Alberto Saviano'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Grillo'/><title type='text'>Vieni via con me</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://www.sologossip.it/wp-content/uploads/Fabio-Fazio-e-Roberto-Saviano.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; WIDTH: 170px; FLOAT: right; HEIGHT: 218px; CURSOR: hand" border="0" alt="" src="http://www.sologossip.it/wp-content/uploads/Fabio-Fazio-e-Roberto-Saviano.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;Sul programma "Vieni via con me" tutti a dire che ha inventato un nuovo linguaggio televisivo. I giornalisti, si sa, hanno una cultura raccogliticcia: Fazio non ha inventato nessun linguaggio, ha solo avuto l'dea - rodata in anni di "Che tempo che fa" - &lt;em&gt;di parlare di politica con il linguaggio del varietà &lt;/em&gt;- suo grande amore infantile - ottenendo d'un coup il risultato che la politica finalmente &lt;em&gt;può essere capita da tutti&lt;/em&gt;. Dico finalmente, perché la "gente" &lt;em&gt;è stata sempre tenuta lontano dalla politica&lt;/em&gt;. perché pensiamo all'era dei partiti di massa come a un periodo di grande partecipazione popolare, ma prendiamo per esempio il PCI (il discorso vale con poche variazioni per gli altri partiti): dopo un ampio dibattito che coinvolgeva capillarmente la "base", decideva tutto il comiato centrale (il cosiddetto centralismo democratico) - la nuova sinistra nacque anche come tentativo di una maggiore partecipazione. Solo con la caduta del muro, però, questo sogno di una partecipazione di tutta la popolazione all'agone politico ha cominciato a essere possibile. Purtroppo, la "gente", a cui era concesso di chiaccherare di politica ma non di farla, mancava di strumenti, non capiva il linguaggio della politica, sicché 1) sono potuti spuntare fuori personaggi come D'Alema che hanno tentato di riproporre il centralismo democratico sotto forma di esaltazione del professionismo della politica 2) sono nati movimenti che davano una risposta qualunquista a un profondo desiderio di partecipazione (Grillo) 3) sono nati i talk show politici, regno del "contraddittorio", in cui è impossibile trovare uno straccio di idea - e la politica si fa prima di tutto con le idee e subito dopo con la tecnica politica. Il "contraddittorio" era fondamentale per il berlusconismo: per 16 anni siamo stati a tifare roma-lazio senza discutere di nessun problema politico, esattamente come voluto da un personaggio che ritiene che i cittadini non debbano fare politica (come la Gelmini ha avuto l'ingenuità di dichiarare) ma devono solo plebiscitare il capo.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Parlando di politica con il linguaggio del varietà un'arte ardua come la politica viene finalmente capita da &lt;em&gt;tutti&lt;/em&gt;: e questo incidentalmente causa la morte del "contraddittorio" berlusconiano, che, ripetiamolo, serve a non far emergere le idee e ad allontanare i cittadini dalla partecipazione alla cosa pubblica. Tra l'altro la politica è coinvolgente e appassionante: il che dà contenuto e anima al varietà, di per sé un format noiosissimo.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;C'è un altro aspetto semplice e geniale allo stesso tempo in questo programma: ha risolto il problema di come parlare di libri in televisione. Alcuni - per esempio Guglielmi - pensavano che fosse impossibile; Baricco portò con successo in televisione il piacere del racconto, che però non è il piacere della letteratura, che è il piacere delle parole; Fazio ha avuto l'idea semplice di far parlare uno scrittore. Ha avuto, c'è da dire, la botta di fortuna di incontrare un grandissimo scrittore trentenne; è giovane, per lui la televisione quindi è lingua madre; però il modo di parlare di Saviano è letterario nella sua forma più alta. Ho sentito un ragazzetto di 18 anni che diceva che Saviano è magnetico: è proprio il magnetismo che emana la parola letteraria e che si trova solo nei grandi romanzi e nelle grandi poesie.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6386098032283015538-3251396769923785120?l=castorphans.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://castorphans.blogspot.com/feeds/3251396769923785120/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6386098032283015538&amp;postID=3251396769923785120' title='0 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6386098032283015538/posts/default/3251396769923785120'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6386098032283015538/posts/default/3251396769923785120'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://castorphans.blogspot.com/2010/11/vieni-via-con-me.html' title='Vieni via con me'/><author><name>Hans Castorp</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05016989070891441042</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='33' height='21' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_A9pBQk8upI8/SK0Vwt148OI/AAAAAAAAACI/lEhtzl9N4Vs/S220/IAVS4.JPG'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6386098032283015538.post-8458133663018186983</id><published>2010-11-27T11:53:00.002+01:00</published><updated>2010-11-27T11:57:21.424+01:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Claudio Pavone'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Resistenza'/><title type='text'>Resistenza</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://www.cifr.it/Resistenza.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; WIDTH: 240px; FLOAT: right; HEIGHT: 196px; CURSOR: hand" border="0" alt="" src="http://www.cifr.it/Resistenza.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;Ormai tutti (sui giornali) parlano di guerra civile al posto di Resistenza, secondo la locuzione introdotta da Claudio Pavone.

Both are baroque in the language, both don't have an end, both believe that reality is not possible to represent, and both are written by engineers. I think the studies of the authors are determinant for their poetic; engineers study for years the perfect world of mathematical and physical abstraction, and then, when they pass to application, they find that these abstraction don't capture many facets of the real world; they are so convinced that reality is diryt and inconsistent, simply because it don't has the pureness of mathematics. This attitude is very different from that ofthe physicist, that is not confronted with application and usually believes that the world is just a shell of illusion atound a core of perfect logic.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6386098032283015538-164765637392688336?l=castorphans.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://castorphans.blogspot.com/feeds/164765637392688336/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6386098032283015538&amp;postID=164765637392688336' title='0 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6386098032283015538/posts/default/164765637392688336'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6386098032283015538/posts/default/164765637392688336'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://castorphans.blogspot.com/2010/11/engineers.html' title='Engineers'/><author><name>Hans Castorp</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05016989070891441042</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='33' height='21' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_A9pBQk8upI8/SK0Vwt148OI/AAAAAAAAACI/lEhtzl9N4Vs/S220/IAVS4.JPG'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6386098032283015538.post-5608531214521107462</id><published>2010-10-24T14:22:00.004+02:00</published><updated>2010-10-24T14:28:42.685+02:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Rinascimento'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='globalizzazione'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Lorenzo il Magnifico'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='crise économique'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Italia'/><title type='text'>Crisi</title><content type='html'>Si sente spesso l'argomento che gli italiani, proprio nel momento in cui cadono più in basso, dimostrano una capacità di ripresa che altri paesi non hanno. Ci si riferisce soprattutto all'ultima guerra e alla ricostruzione, ma se si va indietro nel tempo si dimentica che non è stato sempre così. Ricordiamo il Rinascimento per le arti, ma dimentichiamo spesso che la fioritura delle arti era possibile perché l'Italia era straricca: i Medici erano gli uomini più ricchi d'Europa. All'inizio del '500, da una parte questa ricchezza stimolò l'avidità delle potenti monarchie vicine, in particolare Francia e Spagna, che ridussero l'Italia - divisa in tanti piccoli stati - a una colonia; dall'altra le scoperte geografiche spostarono i traffici da una scala europea a una scala mondiale - la prima globalizzazione. Tutto questo portò al collasso dell'economia italiana, che precipità in una miseria da cui è riuscita a riprendersi (con l'eccezione di alcune aree del nord-ovest) solamente negli anni '50, ai tempi del boom.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6386098032283015538-5608531214521107462?l=castorphans.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://castorphans.blogspot.com/feeds/5608531214521107462/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6386098032283015538&amp;postID=5608531214521107462' title='0 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6386098032283015538/posts/default/5608531214521107462'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6386098032283015538/posts/default/5608531214521107462'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://castorphans.blogspot.com/2010/10/crisi.html' title='Crisi'/><author><name>Hans Castorp</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05016989070891441042</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='33' height='21' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_A9pBQk8upI8/SK0Vwt148OI/AAAAAAAAACI/lEhtzl9N4Vs/S220/IAVS4.JPG'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6386098032283015538.post-1310569381670534220</id><published>2010-10-23T11:52:00.005+02:00</published><updated>2010-10-23T12:04:20.615+02:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Tremonti'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='carry trade'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='crise économique'/><title type='text'>Carry trade</title><content type='html'>La sapéculation sur les changes des monnaies, risque de exploser l'euro.

Nous avons adopté un monétarisme extrémiste, qui va plonger dans la debâcle les ainsi-dits "PIGS (Portugal, Espagne, Italie, Grèce).&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6386098032283015538-22001894171524054?l=castorphans.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://castorphans.blogspot.com/feeds/22001894171524054/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6386098032283015538&amp;postID=22001894171524054' title='0 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6386098032283015538/posts/default/22001894171524054'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6386098032283015538/posts/default/22001894171524054'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://castorphans.blogspot.com/2010/03/monetarisme.html' title='Monétarisme'/><author><name>Hans Castorp</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05016989070891441042</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='33' height='21' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_A9pBQk8upI8/SK0Vwt148OI/AAAAAAAAACI/lEhtzl9N4Vs/S220/IAVS4.JPG'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6386098032283015538.post-5001856663155926646</id><published>2010-03-10T08:48:00.004+01:00</published><updated>2010-03-10T08:52:18.768+01:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Rinascimento'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Martin Lutero'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Ratzinger'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Chiesa'/><title type='text'>Chiesa</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://aimcsicilia.files.wordpress.com/2009/07/benedetto-xvi.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; WIDTH: 145px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 222px" alt="" src="http://aimcsicilia.files.wordpress.com/2009/07/benedetto-xvi.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;In questi giorni in Germania non si fa altro che parlare dei preti pedofili.

Ma Galileo ha tentato in realtà di dimostrare che le verità scientifiche non sono in contrasto con la fede, e, dopo la pubblicazione del &lt;em&gt;Sidereus Nuncius&lt;/em&gt;, era anche riuscito a convincere il capo degli astronomi vaticani, Christophorus Clavius, della bontà della teoria copernicana. Galileo commise anche l’errore di essere, nel Dialogo sui Massimi Sistemi, troppo provocatorio rispetto a quanto potessero tollerare i cortigiani del Papa. Del resto, il conservatorismo culturale è frequente anche tra gli scienziati, in cui atteggiamenti cortigiani non sono rarissimi. La sfortuna di Galileo è stata soprattutto quella di vivere nell’epoca dell’assolutismo, che non era solo della chiesa, spaventata e in piena Controriforma, ma di tutti gli stati dell’epoca (con l’eccezione di Olanda e Svizzera), e non nel Rinascimento dei papi umanisti.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6386098032283015538-5984273742862434167?l=castorphans.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://castorphans.blogspot.com/feeds/5984273742862434167/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6386098032283015538&amp;postID=5984273742862434167' title='0 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6386098032283015538/posts/default/5984273742862434167'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6386098032283015538/posts/default/5984273742862434167'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://castorphans.blogspot.com/2010/01/processo-galileo.html' title='Processo a Galileo'/><author><name>Hans Castorp</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05016989070891441042</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='33' height='21' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_A9pBQk8upI8/SK0Vwt148OI/AAAAAAAAACI/lEhtzl9N4Vs/S220/IAVS4.JPG'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6386098032283015538.post-3433828447208707028</id><published>2010-01-14T16:03:00.001+01:00</published><updated>2010-01-14T16:05:51.047+01:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Impero Romano'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Seneca'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Lega Nord'/><title type='text'>Razzismo</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://www.euronews.net/wires/ansa/images/re209yh7X_20100109.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; WIDTH: 181px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 294px" alt="" src="http://www.euronews.net/wires/ansa/images/re209yh7X_20100109.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;E’ del tutto vero che i leghisti non sono razzisi: assolutamente non cacciare gli immigrati, ma avere gli schiavi, questo è ciò che vogliono – come hanno chiarito i fatti di Rosarno.

Ciò ha origini storiche, in quanto le regioni corrispondono &lt;em&gt;grosso modo&lt;/em&gt; ai piccoli stati italiani (anche se Venezia e Regno delle Due Sicilie risultano spezzettati) e i comuni corrispondono alla tradizione comunale. Tuttavia, sarebbe molto più logico che il sistema si basasse su entità più grandi, cioè le &lt;em&gt;macroregioni &lt;/em&gt;e le province. Per quanto riguarda le prime, solo le macroregioni - NW, NE, C, S e isole - hanno la massa crititca che ha per esempio un Land tedesco -e infatti nel sistema statistico dell'EU macroregioni e Land corrispondo al level 1 mentre le regioni e il Regierungsbezirk al level 2 - per quanto riguarda le seconde, se in città quasi non ce ne accorgiamo, in provincia (appunto) sono l'entità di riferimento per quasi tutti gli obblighi amminsitrativi.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;Un compromesso potrebbe essere lasciare la potestà legislativa alle regioni ma dare autonomia fiscale alle macroregioni - il che potrebbe bilanciare la finanza allegra che spesso avviene a livello regionale.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;Un altro aspetto interessante - anche se per ora fantascientifico - sarebbe di istituire una &lt;em&gt;camera delle macroregioni. &lt;/em&gt;Le quattro macroregioni - NE, NW, centro (compresa Emilia Romagna, Abruzzo e Molise), sud e isole - hanno popolazione all'incirca equivalente di circa 18 milioni di abitanti, tranne il NE che ha solo 6 milioni di abitanti. Si potrebbe pensare che ciascuna elegga 26 rappresentanti, tranne il NE che ne eleggerebbe 13 - &lt;em&gt;con proporzionale secco&lt;/em&gt;, in realtà con un'alta soglia di sbarramento a causa del basso numero di deputati (91 in tutto) e quindi del quorum elevato. Questo sistema avrebbe alcune conseguenze:&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;1) le macroregioni sono unità culturalmente omogenee (tranne il NW, e la Sardegna che fa parte a sé)&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;2) si avrebbe una sintesi tra istanze locali e nazionali&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;3) il Pd sarebbe probabilmente ridimensionato, mentre sarebbero favorite la lega e probabilmente la componente ex MSI del Pdl, con forte radicamento locale; se l'Udeur sarebbe molto favorito, probabilmente UDC e componente ex socialista di Pdl, senza un gran radicamento locale, sarebbero forse sfavoriti&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;4) le forze più estreme sarebbero contemporaneamente svantaggiate - dall'alto quorum - e avvantaggiate - dal collegio ampio&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;Una tale camera sarebbe bene fosse bilanciata da una seconda camera - mi viene in mente una camera di circa 100 eletti con l'uninominale su collegi corrispondenti alle province.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;In Italia oggi si scontrano posizioni localiste e centraliste. Ma occorrerebbe arrivare a una sintesi: i vantaggi dello stato unitario sono innegabili soprattutto nella garanzia dei &lt;em&gt;diritti&lt;/em&gt;, ma non si può trascurare l'importanza della nostra tradizione soprattutto comunal (e non regionale: la Repubblica di Venezia era il contado di una &lt;em&gt;città&lt;/em&gt;). L'intuizione dell'Italia dei sindaci di qualche anno fa - oggi spazzata via - era assai feconda.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;Ovviamente questa su cui qui elucubro è fantascienza istituzionale. E' come la proposta, più volte avanzata dagli specialisti, di elezioni con collegio uninominale in cui si esprimono però tre candidati &lt;em&gt;in ordine di preferenza&lt;/em&gt; ; sarebbe il sistema perfetto, però non si realizzerà mai, per motivi soprattutto &lt;em&gt;psicologici&lt;/em&gt;, perché con questo sistema non sembra di votare per un candidato ma di fare un sondaggio. Tenendo conto tuttavia che gli elettori spesso non sanno che - grazie ai giochi di ingegneria istituzionale - i loro voti non hanno lo stesso peso a seconda di chi votano - e che nessuno sembra volerli informare di ciò - forse sarebbe bene cominciare a pensare a qualcosa del genere.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6386098032283015538-912562736633659299?l=castorphans.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://castorphans.blogspot.com/feeds/912562736633659299/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6386098032283015538&amp;postID=912562736633659299' title='0 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6386098032283015538/posts/default/912562736633659299'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6386098032283015538/posts/default/912562736633659299'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://castorphans.blogspot.com/2010/01/macroregioni.html' title='Macroregioni'/><author><name>Hans Castorp</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05016989070891441042</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='33' height='21' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_A9pBQk8upI8/SK0Vwt148OI/AAAAAAAAACI/lEhtzl9N4Vs/S220/IAVS4.JPG'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6386098032283015538.post-8193653648577265550</id><published>2010-01-06T19:12:00.003+01:00</published><updated>2010-01-06T19:15:25.685+01:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='diritti'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='circolazione'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='semantica'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Italia'/><title type='text'>Mobilità</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://www.samnotizie.it/pagcollhome/mobilit%C3%A0.gif"&gt;&lt;img style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; WIDTH: 316px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 285px" alt="" src="http://www.samnotizie.it/pagcollhome/mobilit%C3%A0.gif" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;In Italia si assiste, nel dibattito pubblico, a una curiosa schizofrenia. Da una parte - specialmente contro gli scioperi nei trasporti e i cortei in città - si invoca il diritto alla mobilità, che &lt;em&gt;non esiste &lt;/em&gt;- e non si vede come potrebbe esistere, si tratterebbe di qualcosa di simile a un diritto al brodino di pollo - mentre la Lega - chiedendo che gli insegnanti del nord siano tutti del nord ecc. - attacca continuamente il diritto alla &lt;em&gt;libera circolazione&lt;/em&gt;, che è tutt'altro - significa che nessuno può essere impedito dal &lt;em&gt;risiedere &lt;/em&gt;in un posto o nell'altro della Repubblica.
