Through Festival: Vittorio Zincone

Through Festival gets into full swing with events throughout the provinces of Cuneo, Asti and Alessandria.

A kaleidoscope of events ranging from meetings with journalists and writers such as Vittorio Zincone and Gianrico Carofiglio, to world-opening performances such as the environmental music reading by Cristiano Godano (Marlene Kuntz) and Telmo Pievani, and the Terconauti show on autism.

Thoughts on the future of museums in the digital transition are also addressed with the director of the Egyptian Museum of Turin Christian Greco.

Two distinct approaches to language emerge with Alessandro Bergonzoni and sociolinguist Vera Gheno.

Vittorio Zincone

Friday, July 12, concludes the E. di Mirafiore Foundation’s Summer Literary Walks series with Vittorio Zincone’s Literary Walk.

The journalist will read and recount, in six stages in the Forest of Thoughts, the adventure of the man who openly challenged Mussolini while also denouncing his corruption.

The lights and shadows of an Italian above suspicion.

“Matteotti, Ten Lives,” published by Neri Pozza, is a work that restores all the complexity of a man and a historical period with a truthful intent that few other books have.
