First of all, congratulations on your new job, but especially for articles written in recent years, of which this book is the result. Let's start from this: what is the crews we are comics (or what is not)?
What did you say is the result of a job - the collection of articles and interviews the protagonists of Italian comics, authors, illustrators and publishers - but a divertissement that comes from a passion for the world of speech bubbles, which has had and continues to affect the collective imagination of several generations. It is a book that gives answers of any kind, wanders, if anything, fed sows doubts and suggestions.
We are "told" that the passion for the hobbits and a world "fantastic" was born in the Italian right to a desire to "escape" from the political reality of the '70s. A situation is certainly different from that of today. What you see in your writings, however, is also a certain topical and not just a "memory" of your imaginary youth: What makes you here and now to write comics?
Do not confuse the escape of the prisoner with the flight of the deserter. These are the words of Tolkien, not mine. The English writer dismissed the tone of the contemptuous and compassionate that accompanied yesterday, and sometimes still with today, the term escape. "Why should a man be despised - he wondered - if they are in prison, he tries to escape back home? Or, if you can not do, think and talk about different topics than jailers and prison walls? ". After all - as he also said that refined Paraculo of Flaiano - "Talk about something else" is simply a different way to talk politics without becoming depressed, in what has become a backyard brawl in which all insult everyone without even knowing why. In the book there are many "testimonies" on "how we were" passing through the identification with the various heroes of paper - Mario Bortoluzzi, historical voice of the Fellowship, told me, and I wrote, like " the early performance of the group began in the autumn of '74 in the dusty rooms of the Youth Front of Padua reminded that both the seat of the legendary group TNT on the left of the creaking wood floors " - But I would stress that in general the changes of manners in our society have been "registered" from the very first comics and effectively than the so-called official culture. The imagination, moreover, has come to prevail over the twentieth century ideologies precisely at the level of interpretation of reality and the comics in this new scenario, more than any other medium, still maintain an amazing ability to detect moods and expectations the younger generation. Our politicians, much as they weave their webs - laughs - will never have the appeal of Spider-Man. And the heroes of paper, it must be said, do not shy back when it comes to saying they do not speak newspeak. One such example: the recent debate on euthanasia, Dylan Dog, the nightmare investigator made in Bonelli, has shown more courage than many politicians. I've written and Undersecretary Eugenia Roccella has run health furious, blaming the Century.
Undoubtedly you are one of the matadors of the new century. A newspaper that for years did not know that now raises the interest, I personally think deserve it. Could you talk a bit 'of your story with the Century and his new capacity that has begun to re-discover it?
My "story" to the Century began in February 2006 when Luciano Lanna, with whom I had already worked in Design, invited me to accompany Federico Zamboni in the first weekly column, "You are a myth" and to "appropriate (in) due." If the century brought forward more often debate issues of national cultural, much of the credit is just the enlightened direction of Lanna and Flavia Luciano Perina, who led the newspaper to sail the high seas beyond the Pillars of Hercules in which was constrained in its previous bulletin as a party.
For a long time it was thought that Evola was a "myth incapacitating" to the right. Others criticized the phenomenon Campo Hobbit, however important and revolutionary, has been a palliative for young people who still were "cheated" by the decisions of the party. There is a risk that even today there are close to the world of fantasy, while the institutional politics continues to fail to take off?
I do not think the heroes of paper, even when they are not politically aligned, continue to transmit to young people positive examples and values \u200b\u200bthat should be shared by all, as the sense of honor and the thirst for social justice. Young people have a duty to make policy, not only in institutional settings, but in the street. Science fiction, if anything, is that offered by the television schedule with programs that offer a virtual version as raddled of our country. I think the containers Barbara D'Urso, Alessia Marcuzzi, Silvia Toff: How about the Titanic, still playing on the deck of the ship, while the same sink. It passes easily from gossip to the celebrations, when there would only roll up their sleeves.
Another interesting thing you've ever been coideatore and animating the Century is the sports page? We can also define a great escape?
Sport is real, nothing more than escapism. You could not tell if other sports did not lived at first. Some people sweat, get dirty, literally puts you in the game, makes sacrifices, irrevocably change their lives. Some people - as sung by Sinatra - never won and he hung up his boots but the sport is also this: it teaches you to handle victory and defeat is a defeat with honor is worth more than a victory. The recommendations do not apply, the bluff is discovered sooner or later. There is no mediation takes. What's more full of life and literature of the sport?
seems to me that you were writing a book-beam beat. Am I wrong?
not mistaken, I think it would be the first reading of "right" of the phenomenon "on the road." Even the young right, like their counterparts on the left, have had their journey on the road, the only difference - laughs - that those on the right down the street there are left while the left and then passed to the collection are comfy on the sofa good literary society. In reality, Kerouac, Bukowski and many others that characterized this season, certainly were not left and all they wanted less than to be rebels or profession have emulators and successors like the ones they had. There's the title, "Kerouac and fasciobeat" and even the cover, always Sebastiano Messina. I have it in my head for over a year and I need time to write it without further abuse the patience of Miro. I hope to talk again in the spring, is the term that I have given. I leave you with a quote from "our" Celine: "What is usually done on the street? We dream. We dream of things more or less accurate, it is carried away by ambition, rancor, from the past. It is one of the most meditative of our time, is our modern sanctuary, the Road. "
