March 17 will be a celebration, but the ceremony is the most authentic staged in Sanremo ... Benigni with a superb ...

Exciting. Simple as a definition, but essential. Exciting is to establish three colors, laid on a splendid Renaissance facade. As in the snapshot on the right, dedicated to the beautiful scenery that this evening greeted the 150 anniversary of the unification of Italy. Beautiful, unique.
How to think about all that's behind: those colors, that symbol, that story.

's strange to speak of emotion when the subject is a national anniversary, a celebration of which is often mentioned - without, however, fully understand the real meanings.
The Unification of Italy 150 years . A date for those who do not by a lot of weight, looking through books di storia. Quasi che in fondo il Risorgimento sia capitato lì, a metà tra la Rivoluzione francese e le guerre mondiali, per caso. Giusto per riempire quel cinquantennio di passaggio tra la Rivoluzione industriale e la Bella epoque. Giusto per condire il primo quadrimestre di un ultimo anno di superiori.
Non è stato ovviamente così, ma mai come in questa ricorrenza - forse - si riuscirà a colmare un gap culturale che da sempre attanaglia la nostra società.
Perché ci si accapiglia e ancora scorre sangue bollente, quando si parla di dopoguerra, di resistenza da una parte, Salò dall'altra. E dovranno passare ancora diverse generazioni e un paio di altri Pansa per conoscere fino in fondo la verità.

But the Risorgimento, let's face it, has always spoken shortly. So much to fear that after this event in 2011 could also pass, as it were, in "horse". Instead
probably will not be a blow "firing blanks".

Meanwhile, because the March 17 will be a celebration for real. Indeed, "real party " - as the headline this morning, "The Nation". Schools, factories and offices closed for 150 years from the Unification of Italy.
The League has not digested the decision. Patience. I think - as many battles of the movement of Bossi deserve consideration beyond the scope of folklore and oral populist - on this ridge, the party that now is the strongest ally of the prime minister risks of "catch a crab" colossal. If you do not share, at least silence would be advisable.

E 'singular, however, that the most essential contribution to the awareness of the importance of this event did not arrive from a character in the world of culture, history and research.
But from an actor. Roberto Benigni .
The risk that the celebration was transformed into "liturgy" is always there: some commemoration, ritual speeches, the institutional protocol, and even a fanfare to remind us why some of the time.

Not at all. The "history lesson" that Benigni has staged on the stage of the Ariston in Sanremo, is something beyond the rails of the ladder. Just as that flag reflected on the facade of the Palazzo Ducale in Gubbio: simple, immediate, beautiful.
How, also, nell'indole of the character, who does not like to follow a script. It often relies on instinct suggests that natural beats, pulse outputs, some dirty word (always a good end ...).

not consider myself a fan of Benigni. Where fans are blind and avid supporter for all that comes out of his mouth. But I think it's humanly impossible not to laugh watching a film like "Johnny Toothpick"; or fail to be moved in the second part of "Life is Beautiful." Masterpieces in their own way. Different, but maybe unrepeatable.
Just like the monologue of more than half an hour from the stage more national-popular beautiful country, launched a few messages. And above all, an incredible incentive. Flowing away in a few inevitable joke about the prime minister and Ruby on the case (but not like talking about), Silvio sull'esilarante advice given to changing the channel (but not Raidue, there Santoro ...). Coming at last to speak to me laugh and patriotism - which is in contrast to nationalism, of happiness (but that should not be expensive), and how the Renaissance was born from the people, especially young people. Who believed in an ideal. Strong, big, and finally, today, no longer distant. The homeland. Then

excellent exegesis of the hymn Mameli, however, punctuated by jokes topicality: "Italy has awoken. Wake up. Wake up. Where 'Victory? Let her bow down, for slave Rome, God has made. Umberto Benigni, says ideally addressed Bossi - slave of Rome is not Italy, is the victory. Umberto, you understand? What's your son Renzo there too? ". Benigni continues with his analysis of historical performance of the hymn: "Let us unite / We are ready to die / Italy called" rants and then points out: "no cohort is the courtyard, is the tenth part of the Roman Legion, 600 infantry. How to say the union is strength. We are united. "
Finally hymn sung a cappella and with the heart ... Unforgettable.



But what is striking is the authenticity, spontaneity and sincerity - outside orthodoxy of every circumstance - that mark the words of Benigni. What if an Oscar had merit, it is precisely this "history lesson." Who deserves, for lightness of form and depth of content to be disseminated to school. If you do not other to understand that the Renaissance is something a lot closer than it seemed so far. a much more nostro. Di vero.
" Amo la mia patria. Non solo perché è bella. Ma soprattutto perchè è la mia ".
