Dedicated to those who delude themselves to be right just because a party card makes you believe. HAPPY EASTER 
There is right and right. There is the right grattacielara Roberto Formigoni and Letizia Moratti, the right Chanel Stefania Prestigiacomo, the right to homosexual fashion Mara Carfagna, the right wing opportunist and nihilistic by Gianfranco Fini, the right to enter in the ancient villages in blacks and SUVs long as hearses, the Labrador in the back by advertising and the child with blue eyes as well as by advertising, maybe you bought in the laboratories of heterologous fertilization or torn from the womb of a new bond with two children and her husband ran off with another, the right bejeweled invoking strict laws against thieves and robbers, but to hear of the death penalty shrinks like a snail into its shell, because Europe does not want, right frightened by Moslems at prayer in Piazza Duomo in Milan the next day but instead went to Mass at the mall and multiplex, who is moved to the right where c ' is the national anthem and then orders champagne, right, who has no foreign language and say it says "non" and says to say homosexuals "gay" as such the left, the right to have children instead of going on vacation, that instead of reading watching TV, instead of acting like a man who goes by the lawyer, the right of the townhouses, the right to collect watches, the right that says "weekend" and then even makes them the right to take that tradition and that tradition is the Christmas tree in the garden and the cake on the table, the right of the seafood restaurants on the lake, the right of seared tuna and Chardonnay, the right to say Lime says "lime", the right to say that an atheist says "secular", the right that says "ok", the right to call Croatia Dalmatia, right sends one child to study abroad, the right to divorce and starts with the slave and South America, the right that says "center", the right to be thinking that they are art exhibitions, which are beauty, right at twenty and fifty points to graduate to retirement, the right of the sunglasses ... I right with this childish selfishness and senile, talpesco, blind, this right of pacifiers presumptuous, as they say in Trani, with this Right clever fools want nothing to do. I always suspected the existence of two right but the thing presented to me in all its evidence at dawn of the year Zero, when I met a young woman in Parma, wealthy politician, was elected by a party that usurped the noble words of the nation.
Well, even worse, that woman in contemporary parmigianissima wore a Burberry scarf and a bag, the picture of the perfidious Albion that until that day I thought designed exclusively for ladies Rotary's most remote province. With one look I realized that: 1) was no longer Parma Parma (gone forever that elegance peculiar, consisting of patterns and colors that already appeared in nearby Reggio exotic), 2) the two did not share even more than the right wardrobe (a able to pay part of the right to advertise brands aliens, the other one that would not do it even if paid). Shortly after I read "From Father to Son" by Marcello Veneziani Augusto Del Noce, and found that he had thought of a "moral right" to counteract the "economic right." Shotfirer, little fire: the Catholic philosopher had come close to the flame without capturing it. I will not criticize those who can not counteract and, moreover, had a son, Fabrizio, showing off cashmere and pastel roaring Ferrari is a caricature of the form on the right which has fought against his father.
From "moral right" to "moral right" way is pretty quick and you end up in a few steps from the parties of the right most demagogic, drooling, that even to evacuate their resentment in the military is prepared to deploy against short, the right of Antonio Di Pietro and his Italy of the envious. And ethicists are able to do many, almost everyone. Just do not believe in anything, or nothing like variants of the Constitution or conscience, and you can say "ethics" with onanistic complacency facendosela turn in your mouth like a Brunello di Montalcino Riserva 1988. The so-called "secular ethics" only works in publishing, in reality can not hold a building let alone a nation. What support can offer something which, in turn, is without foundation? Baron Münchhausen escaped the quicksand by pulling their hair, that fairy tale wonderful, if perhaps too suggestive to our most thoughtful pundits, Eugenio Scalfari and Claudio Magris to name just two, appeared to be transferred into daily life. There is no uncaused cause that is not God, nor that it is not effective moral religion, which effectively mean for a set of moral rules that can bind without having to put a policeman on guard every citizen and a lawyer to guard every policeman.
Coming understood as Augusto Del Noce, the definition of "economic right" is misleading. As if the other was right uneconomical, perhaps pauperism. E 'wrong to give the idea that on the one hand there are the spiritualists, poor dreamers, and the other materialists, practical people. E 'wrong to grant exclusive rights to the subject, the flesh, to unbelievers as those who can not even use it: only those who love God incarnate can give your body a great value. In the last few lines I mentioned God twice, not in vain because I'm getting close to the heart of this book. The divine right. Wonderful definition derived from "Greetings and best wishes, poetry, and therefore the final testament of Pier Paolo Pasolini. The poet-Romagna Bologna Friuli-the-Roman wrote shortly before he was killed, or be killed (according to the theory that Joseph Zigaina made some fascinating books and quite convincing). Verses thrilling, admittedly terminals: "E ' almost certain that this is my last poem .... " Lines that end in even more explicit, with a passing of the torch: "Hic desinit cantus. Take you on the shoulder this burden .... " Excuse me, every time I arrive at this point I go up in tears. I now resume. "Take this burden you, boy / hate me: you take it. Shines in the heart. And I will go light, go / forward, by choosing to always / life, youth. " Here I do a lot of really hard not to cry.
If the twenty-first century there are still people who considered the author of Pasolini left, is someone who has never read. An old vice, place the writers on the basis of hearsay. Antonio Tabucchi invented in the late twentieth century to the customers of the Feltrinelli bookstores Fernando Pessoa a true democrat. The Portuguese writer was quite the opposite, namely a sebastiani a monarchy that the king Sebastian I idolized and criticized the dictator Salazar as guilty of having introduced a non-elitist enough, but could easily turn the omelet, with readers ignorant and we Boccalon are around: just publish the works harmless and bury in oblivion ominous titles, first the blackest "The interregnum. Defense and justification of the military dictatorship in Portugal "and" Message ", visionary, almost delirious in his patriotism by high fever. This book contains some of the 1934 verses destrodivini that I have stumbled under the eyes: "Full of God, do not fear what is to come, for they come what may, will never be / greater than my soul." It 's the description of a man who admits that small rises in defiance of history under the hauberk of its Lord. With Pasolini mystifying the operation came a tad bit more difficult, if only for the more accessible texts. Even a critic as not too keen Asor, one that goes to summer Capalbio, SGAM the real nature of our hero: "He exchange itself, and decadent literary clearly conservative for a liberal writer. " Only the author of "The Nightingale of the Catholic church" not wrong at all, he knew it was a reactionary and therefore supported the Communists, the only real opposition to the Christian Democrats have favored guilty of the economic boom and then the modernization the mutation, the de-Christianization.
At an early stage, the Communist Party with his austere moral seemed to give a few more years of life beloved Friuli arcadia, the dialect, the rural culture. He soon realized it was an illusion. However Pasolini never overlapped Communism, after Christian heresy, with the left, which was not even a Christian origin, and this distinction became blatant in '68 when the occasion of the clashes of Valle Giulia took the side of the police against students. But I will not describe the trajectory of intellectual Pasolini, I would simply point to the overhead consists of the poem-a testament to like the "Purloined Letter" by Edgar Allan Poe: invisible because in the show. Pasolinologi, and Pasolini Pasolini appears to have not ever read, despite its value as a summary, legacy and the unveiling of an extraordinary life, and despite repeated publications. I have found in a book in the catalog, "New Youth", published by Einaudi, not the last of the printers. No way, there are none so blind as those who do not want to see. I understand that having some idea of \u200b\u200bPasolini (wrong) on \u200b\u200bpage 255 there is to be traumatized. At the end of volume and end of life here is a farewell which reverses the perspective, that brightens up a past of contrasts. The verses of "Greetings and best wishes" are in Friulian and Italian (the translation is that the author rightly did not trust the translators) and unambiguous: "Protect, preserve, please." Damn. "Defending, keep praying." Insists. "You protect, preserve, please." Repeat three times a threefold exhortation, of course that is close to my heart and fears that the obtuseness of the interlocutor, a young fascist seventies, and posterity. In the poem there's words that deny enrollment in the ranks of cattocomunismo or a shapeless and Protestant Christianity. "But in Town? Play. Christ there is not enough. We need the church. "(There Is Pasolini Roman Catholic). "Bring the hands of the soldier saint or intimacy with the King." (There Pasolini declared that the monarchy). If you are not convinced andatevelo reading ... Then there is the definition that I took it as the relay take the witness, but without the hustle and not to win but to take it a little further and give it to those who will "right divine that is within us." Here, let me show you what is inside of us, in prose rather than poetry, performing and adding the insights of my own. If "Greetings and best wishes" is a poster I compose a manifesto and a half.
What is divine right? Pasolini writes that it is defending, keep praying. The first two verbs seem synonymous but "defend" implies more commitment to "preserve". E 'implies a degree of risk: if you need the defense means that someone is perpetrating offense. "Defend the fields between the village and the countryside, with their ears / abandoned. Defend the lawn or between the last house in the village and the canal "that Pasolini is the cry of a creature, if not a creationist, a man who respects every blade of grass because he knows that every blade of grass tenant but the owner is, and who will respond. How do you defend the field and the house and the land and the irrigation ditch? Pasolini but I do not know how practical a saint Bernard of Clairvaux is concerned to leave the hands of the defender: "When you kill a criminal, a murderer should not be considered but, as it were, a malicida. And what tools should implement defense?
When I grow rich (the narrative needs of leisure) I'll write a novel set in Brescia with a protagonist who loves hunting and guns, in the meantime I think it is not essential to firearms. They are useful, of course, and the footsteps of Cesare Beccaria (more misunderstood thinker) are conducive to their free purchase, while in the alternative memory of David and his sling carry suggestions of at least a couple of filmmakers but no less divine right of St. Bernardo: Nicolás Gómez Dávila ("Civilization is a man armed with a whip of hungry animals") and Ernst Jünger ("The inviolability of the home is based on the householder that came to the threshold home brandishing the ax "). More important is the caliber of good will. In the secular right, and somewhat sluggish in the center piece of the left not entirely devoid of any sense of reality so the defense has a stunted but citizenship is understood as a right. Only the divine right down into duty. Only the powers of the law, of course, a law divinely founded, can guarantee the order that protects the weak, supporting the poor, the old reassuring, comforting the sick. Anarchy may be convenient to twenty years, especially if you have a credit card in the pocket of my father.
to seventy or eighty, in a public hospital, we can only hope that the regulations are met with care: that administrators are not corrupt, that the canteen does not recycle expired food, the nurse is not to omit the patients to watch television, the surgeon inserts implants to patients without relatives bad influence. "No one is good," says Jesus Christ. It 'so divine, as well as reasonable, to believe in original sin and therefore in education, in civilization, while it is evil, as well as stupid, trust in the noble savage. The divine right of man knows that the faults are not of society, and that hell is full. Do you think that selfishness is not a right and, therefore, that divorce is not a right, abortion is not a law, adopt a child if lesbian is not a right, park on the sidewalk is not a right, by speeding cars and noisy motorcycles under the windows of the sleeper is not a right, piss in the arcades of Bologna is not a law, fill the walls is not a written law, asked her to cover megaposter is not a right, to build a seven-storey building in the historical center or by the sea is not a right. Bad teachers make the kids believe that everything is due to them, creating generations of frustrated in life because the duty pushed out the door of ideology inevitably fall from the window on reality.
A boy not even need to explain that suicide is a right: first you have to study the "Divine Comedy", because you have a duty to Dante before you wash the dishes, because you owe it to your mother, first you have to water the basil, because you have a duty to the family table, before you go find your grandma or your friend sick and you have to do in cycling, because you have a duty to the city, and then, and then we'll talk about. No, do not sympathize with the would-be suicide, "solidarity" is a word that causes me to vomit, smells of taxes, theft and lies, I'd like to hear the word "fraternity" and the feeling of being brothers, sons of the same father. But because God is more human right? Not because they are more lenient or sensitive but because of prayer. If you preserve and protect animals, too, I think that in the squirrel collects nuts for the winter burrow and bites someone sneaks to take, prayer is exclusive of men. Squirrels do not pray. I am wary of men who do not pray, or be cocky or are desperate, in both cases they are dangerous because they are capable and incapable of everything. In particular, women who do not pray they make me feel, the more I look the more I seem to beasts, large squirrels seem to me without hair.
And I am a simple man, erotic limited horizon, I do not understand the bestiality. The growing disbelief brings with it Vegetarianism is a growing, modern mystics substitute for fasting. The young ladies that all the gold in the world do not eat the ground raw horse, a specialty of Parma which I devoured with joy and longing (except Friday), they think they ultraspirituali. Mistake, as if to teach the spirit of the Spirit: God made flesh eating roasted fish (Luke 24, 41-43), is not limited to vegetables. "I'm not a great man, just believe in big ideas," said an American president. The divine right is not better because it respects the Decalogue, is better because he believes in the Ten Commandments. The veal is succulent and gold is shining, it is essential to keep separated: the golden calf as well as an abomination is inedible, as well as inedible and cannibalism, and this is more blatant today than at the time of Sinai, in our days when from every pulpit profane intimate man to kneel in front of the Technique .
