Continues cycle of literary meetings at the Maxxi Museum in Rome, where this week we will talk to the heart together with Mario Calabresi and to the head together with France Giansoldati .
Wednesday 18 December 2019 starting at 18pm the journalist and writer Mario Calabresi will present his latest book entitled "The morning after", a book that tells the emptiness that we all experience the day after a great pain. When you lose a parent, a partner, a child, a job, a decisive challenge, when you make a mistake, when you retire or move, there is always a morning after from which to learn to live with a sense of emptiness, a vertigo that assails us when we realize that something or someone we've had for years, and we thought we'd have forever, suddenly isn't there anymore. The writer Chiara Gamberale will also dialogue with the author on the theme of starting over, of restarting after a loss or a change, of becoming aware of the fact that life inevitably goes on, even if in a different way than before and that one is no longer the same, celebrating a break with the past , redrawing the timeline from now on.
Mario Calabresi dedicates his new book to this delicate and crucial moment, starting from his own experience and then opening up to the experiences of others. And he thus recounts different perspectives and lives, which all have in common the struggle to start over, starting from the morning after.
Thursday 19 December 2019 from 18,30 Franca Giansoldati will present his latest work The green alphabet of Pope Francis, where the topics of discussion will revolve around climate change, energy saving, respect for the planet. All topics on which the Pope's position has always appeared at the forefront starting with the pontiff's encyclical made public on 18 June 2015 Laudato si'.
Precisely starting from the words of Pope Francis, written during his third year of pontificate, the journalist of Il Messaggero who deals with the events of the Vatican in her work reflects on some themes of capital importance for the present and for the near future: commitment of populations from all over the world in environmental protection, sustainability, pollution, the fight against indifference.
The encyclical becomes, in the pages of the book, a tool that teaches us to play an active role for the salvation of our planet, to leave future generations a living legacy and a world with fewer imbalances and healthier.
They will speak during the event Rino Fisichella Archbishop, president of the Pontifical Council for the promotion of the new evangelization, Daniel Lumera director My Life Design Foundation ed Hermes Realacci, honorary president of Legambiente.
