THE EAGLE. Two events in the name of poetry are scheduled for tomorrow in L’Aquila and Pescara. In the capital, within the spaces of the L’Aquilone shopping centre, a multimedia afternoon dedicated to poetry is scheduled from 5.30pm. Anna Maria Giancarli, the pride of L’Aquila as an author of verses and a writer of national fame, will create a special atmosphere. For the occasion you have prepared a significant program with the aim of spreading poetry through various forms of communication. Poetry, in this case, reaches out to people and demonstrates its ability to represent the world through the written, oral, visual, musical and performative word. “Despite its apparent uselessness, poetry is necessary” is the title of Anna Maria Giancarli’s themed speech. Also on the program is “Signs of poetry, language of peace” with anti-war poems by Bertolt Brecht, Giorgio Caproni, Alfredo Giuliani, Mario Lunetta, Mario Luzi, Anna Malfaiera, Giulia Niccolai, Lamberto Pignotti, Antonio Porta, Maria Silvia Reversi, Amelia Rosselli, Edoardo Sanguineti. The readings are by Diana Biscaini, Loretta Del Papa, Alessandra Di Vincenzo, Anna Maria Giancarli, Betty Leone, Maria Silvia Reversi, Maura Viscogliosi. The meeting, coordinated by Francesca Pompa, president of One Group who, together with Angelo De Nicola and Paolo Del Vecchio, are the creators of the event.
PHF.1 POETRY HOUSE FESTIVAL In the evening, in Pescara, (8.40 pm) the fifth and final appointment with the Phf.1/Poetry House Festival is scheduled at Casa Pasquinelli (via Nicola Fabrizi 14) which, since January, has hosted excellent names of new contemporary Abruzzo writing .
