It’s now official: the Lo Studiolo editions will be present for the first time at the Turin International Book Fair, which will take place from 9 to 13 Mayor next. There Sanremo publishing house was invited by the Liguria Region which is the host region of the 2024 edition to present a new publication and offer visitors a vast choice from its book catalogue.
In particular, Lo Studiolo will be the protagonist of the event “Liguria, land of music: great voices and classical notes” which will be held in the Liguria Room of the oval pavilion Thursday 9 May from 12pm to 2pm. Working alongside other authors and publishers, we want to bring a part of the hinterland and its history to Turin: in fact, the volume entitled “Statutes of Bajardo, 1577” edited by Mario Gasparini, with writings by Alessandro Giacobbe and Alessandro Carassale. This is a rare document, translated from Latin for the first time by Luca Tenneriello, researcher at the La Sapienza University of Rome, which allows us to understand how the daily life of a rural community like that of Bajardo was organized at the end of the sixteenth century.
The professor will comment on this work Enrico Bassoprofessor of Medieval History at the University of Turin, but the words will alternate with the notes with the Pizzicante Duo formed by Freddy Colt on the mandolin and from Davide Frassoni on the guitar in the interpretation of popular dances and melodies of the historical period. The mayor of Bajardo will also be present at the Turin meeting Remo Moraglia. The event is made possible thanks to the coordination of the De Ferrari Foundation of Genoa.
A wide selection of books by Lo Studiolo will then be available for purchase at the Sala Liguria for the entire duration of the Salon until May 13th.
