INGIROPARLANDO AND FRANCESCO PETRARCA
Laura Capaccioli was a guest at the presentation of the book on Francesco Petrarca "Rerum Vulgarium Fragmenta", at Palazzo Montini, Castle of Sarna, Chiusi della Verna (AR), 30th September, 2005. Sponsors: Consortium of Municipalities in the Mountain Area of Casentino, Municipality of Chiusi della Verna, Province of Arezzo. "Rerum Vulgarium Fragmenta" is a book consisting of six sonnets taken from the original manuscript (Codice Vaticano Latino, no. 3195), written to mark seven-hundred years from Francesco Petrarca's birth. Edited by Alessandro Piras, it was published by the Associazione Culturale Autori Contemporanei under the patronage of the Ministry of National Heritage and Culture, of the Municipality of Arezzo and of the Italian Institute of Culture in Stuttgart "Italienisches Kulturinstitut Stuttgart". The book, which was printed by the paint factory Edison of Rassina (AR), is illustrated with reproductions of the engravings of Lorenzo Bruno, Livio Ceschin, Ivo Mosele, Ferdinando Piras, Lanfranco Quadrio, Roger Savinio. The work was presented by Senator Grazia Sestini, assistant secretary of Welfare. During the presentation the writer Gloria Letizia De Fraja read the sonnets related to the engravings and Laura Capaccioli presented her book "Ingiroparlando", a communication handbook. The presentation of the book was followed by the opening of the Exhibition on Engravings and their origins.
And so on the one hand art, the primary way of communicating emotions and feelings, which offers the possibility of interpretation and therefore of dreaming ... On the other hand words, which are necessary for immediate and fast communication, but that can also go "beyond" relationships and enrich your inner world. Laura Capaccioli: "I was very excited when I was invited to introduce my work on such an important occasion, together with a book that has so much depth, celebrating a great man like Francesco Petrarca. Our aim was to illustrate how Francesco Petrarca’s European vision, that goes back more than 700 years, is now so up to date. At the time it was necessary to spread the "vulgar", popular language, whereas today we need to defend our roots, origins and cultures, therefore helping to preserve different languages ..."
