Saturday 11 May, 6.00 pm, in Benevento, at the “Vittorio Emmanuele” Municipal Theater, as part of the “Il Maggio dei Libri 2024” exhibition and with the patronage of the Municipality of Benevento, Edizioni Realtà Sannita present the first and second volumes entitled “People of Benevento” and with the subtitle “From the drawer of a reporter’s memory”, by Giuseppe De Lorenzo.
Introduced by greetings from the publisher Maria Gabriella Fuccio and the Councilor for Culture of the Municipality of Benevento, Antonella Tartaglia Polcini, the following will speak: Francesco Morante, president of the Archeoclub Section of Benevento; Roberto Costanzo, dean of Samnite journalists and Mario Pedicini, journalist of Realtà Sannita. Alfredo Pietronigro, director of the Gazzetta di Benevento newspaper, will coordinate; the author will conclude.
Giuseppe De Lorenzo, for several years, punctually every Sunday, has stopped to remember in the online newspaper “Gazzetta di Benevento” stories and characters from the Samnite territory, many swallowed up by the oblivion of time.
These stories by the chronicler, who has been the protagonist – for better or for worse – of a large part of the time from the end of the 1950s to today, have given rise to the desire to collect all the re-enactments, one after the other, in a necklace.
The first two volumes end on December 31, 2019, to be followed by others.
