“This year we reach the tenth edition of Ricomincio dai Libri and we cannot and do not want not to link it to the number ten understood as a perfect number, the number from which everything ends and begins. This number, historically considered perfect, echoes in different cultures and disciplines, embodying an essence of completeness and universality”. We can read it from a post by Lorenzo Marone, artistic director of Ricomincio dai Libri, launched from the social pages of the event. The event is scheduled at the State Archives from 27 to 29 September 2024.
“In the world of literature, 10 represents the ten commandments of narrative, those immutable principles that guide the hand of every writer in weaving stories that speak to the soul. In mythology, for example, we remember the ten years of the Homeric epic, symbol of the heroic journey that continues to inspire generations”, continues Marone.
“In Naples it is a magical number, it symbolizes the revolution carried out by our little great King, he who did perhaps more in death than he did in life for this city, he who decided to take the side of the last to make them first We don’t dare define ourselves as such, we don’t dare define ourselves as winners, because we don’t believe in this word, but we believe that passion, enthusiasm and self-sacrifice can allow us to achieve unimaginable goals. , concludes Marone.
The illustration of the tenth edition was once again entrusted to the Neapolitan artist Luca Carnevale.
