THE WELDER OF VAJONT (MARSILIO) – ANTONIO BORTOLUZZI
On Monday 22 April, at 6.30pm, the ItalyPost Bookshop in Padua will offer a moment of tribute to the collective memory of one of the most tragic disasters in Italian history. On the occasion of the “Economic Mondays”, in fact, the writer Antonio Bortoluzzi will present the book “The welder of the Vajont” (Marsilio), which offers an intense and profound narration of the epic linked to the construction of the Vajont dam and the catastrophe of October 9, 1963, when a colossal landslide destroyed thousands of lives and entire communities. Through the figure of the welder, Bortoluzzi guides us on an emotional and historical journey that explores the double reality of industrial progress and its devastating consequences. A memory of the personal and professional experiences lived in the shadow of the dam, from the years of the protagonist’s peasant youth to his years of factory work, reflecting on how modernization has radically transformed work and life in the Alpine valleys. Free entry event.
I-FOOD HOW TO ESCAPE FOOD IDEOLOGY? (GUERINI) – PIETRO PAGANINI
The next event of the “Food Tuesdays” cycle, scheduled for Tuesday 23 April at 6.30 pm in the ItalyPost bookshop in Padua, will see the presence of the well-known economic and (geo)political popularizer Pietro Paganini who will present “i-Food as an escape from food ideology?” (Guerini). In the meeting of great importance in the field of modern food criticism, Paganini will delve into the complex dynamics between public policies, geopolitical and commercial strategies that influence the control of food production and public health, highlighting how the so-called “iPhonization” of nutrition is being used for political and commercial purposes. Through a critical analysis, the author reveals how advertising and media campaigns tend to standardize diets, compromising individual diversity and freedom of choice. An approach that denounces a dominant ideology that also offers an alternative perspective: the personalization of nutrition. Free admission.
