Marsala – Windows on the World, in the summer headquarters at the Baluardo Velasco in via Bottino, in Marsala, on Thursday 4 July, at 6 pm, the book by Professor Francesco Virga, from Palermo, founder of the Centro Studi e Iniziative di Marineo, who collaborated from ’75 to ’77 with Danilo Dolci at the Centro di Formazione di Trappeto, will be presented.
Virga will present his latest editorial work ‘Eredità dissipate – Gramsci Pasolini Sciascia’ (Diogene Editore), a second expanded edition that analyses the legacy of Antonio Gramsci in the cultural life of the second half of the twentieth century, identifying in the works of Pierpaolo Pasolini and Leonardo Sciascia, precise reprises of Gramscian themes.
The book is placed at the intersection of philosophical and literary criticism, politics and the history of Italian culture. Let it be clear: for the author, those who dissolve Gramsci’s values are certainly not the great intellectuals of the last century but rather the culture of the 21st century that has left in the shade the ideal and political lesson of the greats of the 20th century. In dialogue with the author, Francesco Vinci.
