BIBLIOPHILES. BIBLIOMANIACS. MARTIANS - Thursday, September 11 at 6:00 PM
When the rocket is an armchair and the planet is made of paper. Con Antonio Castronuovo
There is an obsessive love that hurts no one: that for books. Antonio Castronuovo, author of the Dictionary of the Bibliomaniac, recounts the twists and curiosities of this strange passion that also infected a great Belluno author, Beniamino Dal Fabbro, a sulfurous journalist and writer whose papers and books are preserved in the Civic Library, some of which are rare and thus coveted by the lover...
Antonio Castronuovo is an essayist, translator, and bibliophile. He is on the board of the Aldus Club in Milan, an ancient bibliophile association previously presided over by Umberto Eco. He has edited the reissue of various works by Dal Fabbro. Among his books: Dictionary of the Bibliomaniac, Dictionary of the Graphomaniac (upcoming), Bibliophilic Obsession.
Free admission.

Three Peaks and fourteen thousand people. Won't we feel cramped? By and with Duccio Canestrini
In the 19th century we were already too many, too many tourists. But while it was possible to laugh about it back then, today, when the numbers have multiplied beyond measure, especially in certain destinations, the situation is dramatic. Solutions? Even trips to Mars might not be... Over-tourism is a systemic problem, the logical consequence of a disastrous mentality of limitless growth.
Duccio Canestrini is an anthropologist, author of several successful books including Antropop. The Global Tribe, Go to That Country, Don’t Shoot the Tourist, Travel Trophies. He has traveled to all continents and taught Anthropology of Tourism at the University of Trento and at the University Campus of Lucca.
