What Brew. Brew is the journal of cultural, informational, topical and custom directed by writer, poet and publisher Velio Carratoni. The
No 236 port on the cover of the magazine work by Michele Cossyra the Italian tricolor. The message is clear. It is aimed at the anniversary celebrations of the Unity of Italy with a view to 2011. A sign that the historical event of the Risorgimento, which begat the unification of Italy, is the patrimony of all, and that no media, especially when dealing with art and literature, can ignore or disregard the importance of the phenomenon.
Gramsci, despite having read the Italian Renaissance through the lens of "passive revolution", never had doubts about the value of liberal and "progressive" rhttp Unit: / / www.blogger.com / img / blank.gifisorgimentale.
Among the interventions that dot the No FERMENTATION 236, is a leader dedicated to Giuseppe Garibaldi. The "revolutionary" who fought for the unit (under the monarchy) of all Italians, and that "preparations" (ideally), according to us, that future which then led to "flag" of the Italian Republic against fascism. And even if
Garibaldi against the expectations of the revolutionary republicans and social unrest, gave the fruit of his victories to the monarchy of the House of Savoy, not sure it deserves the contempt that the apostrophe indicates as "leader of the unclean." Throws him on the "separatism" Northern League, which is regressive and racist policy of Marsh Valley. Contempt, also appears twice. The negative attribute, in fact, is characterized as a double immoral and unjust offense. On one side is unashamedly
(unmatched) addressed to one who gave his life for the national ideal, and the other a dirty insult to s people s for whose liberation was not spared. "Hero of Two Worlds", in fact, is the legend that surrounds the memory of Garibaldi (the story of his exploits in favor of the oppressed and of extraterritorial rebels known). Yes
pointing out that, by Serena Bute (who wrote the article), Garibaldi, a young Navy recruits Sardinian chose for himself as a fighter pseudonym, the identity of "Cleombrotus" is a sign of redemption and positive recognition indelible. "Cleombrotus", in fact, was the brother of Leonidas and the father of Pausanias, the ancient and prestigious Spartans. Giuseppe Garibaldi, then, as Cleombrotus!
And as the hero, Giuseppe Garibaldi did not stop when confronted with obstacles, heading towards the south and Sicily, the fight for liberation and unification of the Italian Risorgimento, thought and acted as feeder to the cry of "Here it is Italy or die."
His mission in life was to "liberate the oppressed people everywhere he went, a man was uncomfortable for governments and the governed ... that often worried for his moves uncontrollable" (p. 77). The magazine
FERMENTS No 236, of course, other writings, and value that we provide information on topics from other areas of literature and culture.

" The same author then indicates both the prophetic W. Benjamin, in Angelus Novus ("On the mimetic faculty"), "focuses on the essence of the constitutive nature human perception in the continued exchange between the formal determinations in perpetual fade surrounding universe "(p. 37), and the position of Mario Lunetta, instead, in his collection of essays Encroachment.

Any intervention deserves attention in itself, but a review of our space, view the body of the book, is for obvious reasons (the limitations imposed by the writer), certainly can not compete with the scope and range of thematic Yeasts n.236. So the reader is invited, if interested, to obtain the volume ordered directly to the Director Velio Carratoni (e-mail: ferm99@io.it; www.fermenti-editrice.it).
Finally, we like to remember (again) that the paintings "Brothers of Italy, 2010" - the tricolor Italian flag - which faces the cover of ENZYMES No 236, is the artist, a native of Trapani, Michele Cossyra (Cossyra lives in Rome, but was born in Pantelleria - TP), and that in addition to the poet Salvo (cited above), another Sicilian, the volume contains an essay on the writer's writer and critic Stephen Lanuzza (Lanuzza lives in Florence, but Messina of origin). Our essay (p. 69) is titled: "Stephen Lanuzza and literature as 'general fiction'." A short extrapolation (pp. 69-70):
Today, twenty-first century, the critic and essayist Stephen Lanuzza, escaping the same way to certain conventions of the discourses of consumerism and postmodern literary, literature suggests a hypothesis as 'general fiction'. A rather unusual and unconventional choice, that of our critical literature to refer to it as a novel. You might say, reversing the relationship between gender and species (as in a metonymy or a synecdoche), the species with its particular difference - the novel - takes the place of gender: literature. The subset takes the place of all general, who thus leaves its function inclusive of container parts.
Two of the titles of the author's most recent works are, in this sense, the more indicative that: 1) "Romance of Italian literature," the first (Dante and others), 2) "Novel Sicilian literature, "the second (Island). Both books, elegant and insightful as to essentials for slenderness discursive, were published by Alternative Press in 2001 and 2009 respectively.
and literature as a fixed object identity - the literature of a day that is always the same "(to paraphrase a thought of Gaston Bachelard) - which Lanuzza questions. The identity of literature as that of philosophy must, that is, proposing instead to / from other points of view, if the history of knowledge and knowledge is also dependent temporalization well as hypothesis-function contestualizzante, exposed and open to trade energy with environment from unstable equilibrium.
The review section brings the following: Who is Porfirio Constant? Maria Pia Argentieri on Renato Gabriele; Hypothesis Lume aphorism in the eyes of Domenico Cara Marzia alumni; Brina Maurer, Maria Grazia Lenis and the dialectic of opposites Mark Baiotto; The littérateuse en abîme Donato Di Stasi on Gemma Strong, Mary Lenti Ode on the physical bodies of Andrea Ambrogetti on eternal adolescence (1981-1989) Carmelo Vera Saura, Domenico Cara at the time of Antoninus spagine Contilia; Giorgio Patrizi on the perceived world (nightmares and dedications) of Marco Palladini, Germana Duke Ruggeri on Psalms Underground Michele Brancale on the outline of Chahdortt Djavann on Ten minutes from Uranus Carla De Angelis, Marco De Santissu El bandido father of Gianna Sallustio, Raffaele Piazza on Bonsante proportion of Matthew to John (1885-1974) George Prestinomi.
On "Time out of layout-Chia-ism" (A. Contilia), Domenico Cara writes:
the line is wrapped up in his new liberal and neo-Gothic, instance after instance, the manifold becomes a reflection of witnesses and confession with caustic example of the meaning and aim of the new world, and a variety of insidious suspicion (inspired?) which categorically are trained to understand the graphs and mockery of itself and all convinced of the total fall of our time is at stake: only Rainbow - intimately - Hell social, political, more open and complete disintegration. "Poetry: This talk endlessly only mortality and short-lived" (according to Paul Celan) re-examined the picture more dissipation existential traumas (and who-ASMI) that prevent the loyalty of a right (and duty) to life , breaks and other deviant forms of plural can dream here in red-hot item. Contilia Anthony, with his poems, rather than transgressive, in emergency implied, to the content un'insoave allusive irony, contingency lexical abnormal streaked dissent, oppositional breakers, fans connected to a specific ideological prepared most irresponsible invective that the experimental conflict and chaos. (P. 363).
On "The world perceived (and nightmares dedications)," the latest book of poems by Mark Palladini, Giorgio Patrizi writes:
The last book of Mark Palladini, is a clear sign of a situation and important peculiarities of ¬ LATION Search the poetry of these years, which is a leading figure in the Roman writer always pays attention to the more complicated connotations and implications of testing dense text. The world perceived (and nightmares dedications) [...] is a beautiful title that evokes issues of literary theory and knowledge. And example, but there is a world that is not perceived? And the perception entails greater authenticity in May ¬ ¬ trio ARB or the risk? The "perceived world" is more authentic or fantasy becomes an entity? And again, is a statement of solipsistic individual experience of the world, or refers to a "perception" not only individual but collective, historically determined?
Beyond this I would call non-ambi ¬ guity, but density problem of the title, there is a specimen of writing "militant", the most typical of the literary world of Palladini, as summarized in a synthetic repertoire of forms and modes of communication "¬ wing protagonists" now surely outdated term that I like to call it but certainly suitable polemical impetus that drives the malignancies language, the upheavals, the ironies that make the world perceived linguistic universe of large and fascinating movement, which pile up moods, emotions, thoughts, memories and stories. (P. 364).
