Meraviglie - EP. 6 - Part 11

Difficulty: Intermediate

Italy

Gli scavi avvenuti ad Assisi tra l'Ottocento e il Novecento sotto la chiesa di Santa Maria Maggiore hanno riportato alla luce una domus, forse appartenuta al poeta Properzio. La suggestiva domus è ricca di decorazioni parietali, impreziosita anche da quadretti mitologici, pregiate pavimentazioni e splendidi mosaici.

Meraviglie - EP. 4 - Part 4

Difficulty: Intermediate

Italy

La basilica superiore è un vero trionfo di luce e colori. Le pareti interne della chiesa sono interamente ricoperte da affreschi ed è a Giotto che si deve il ciclo di affreschi dedicato alla vita di San Francesco. Nelle sue rappresentazioni, Giotto tralasciò gli schemi dell’arte bizantino-romanica e ne adottò altri, più dolci, più umani e più veri.

Si intitola Me Ne Frego il documentario dell'Istituto Luce a cura della linguista Valeria Della Valle e del regista Vanni Gandolfo, presentato alla Mostra del Cinema di Venezia e dedicato alla "bonifica" fascista della lingua italiana. Un efficace viaggio nel tempo, il recupero di un'Italia dimenticata, ridicola nel suo purismo nazionalistico ma drammatica per la violenza dei divieti.
