The modern intellectual is no longer time to the drive belt between the party and the masses. Cultural hegemony of the left took over, silent but devastating, a new hegemony "subculture", to use Massimiliano Panarari, which has replaced the first, by injecting into the society and the dangerous pandemic germ of media populism. Sixteen years
domain Berlusconi has impressed an indelible mark in the national character. To exit from the confines of the subculture berlusconicentrica mephitic and to escape the maelstrom of self, the intellectual has given a crash. Dominated for decades of debate and autopoietic soporific film club, now drunk and sick from their presumed moral superiority, long since degraded into a moralism indefensible caste protected by the cultural left and broke the lines, moving in a random order, has jumped in same circuit populism of the right, innervated with robust injections of steroids modern cathode. What remains of the cultural left in the hands of the apes baudesco nazionalpopolare, using the ancient strings of emotion, feeling, soul, dell'antirazionalismo, dell'antimodernismo and cialtroneria, which have always constituted the core of the melodramatic Italic and cunning character. Thus is born and thrives Giovanni Allevi ...
Some objections:
1. B erlusconi won o. He inoculated. We sold a crash and now we find ourselves Allevi, while first listening to ... listen ... boh, Benedetti Michelangeli? Trocino, which also identifies very clearly what are the contents of the deterioration of 'pop star' (sentimental, anti-rationalist, primitivism, etc.), and elsewhere if it takes explicitly with the "vendors of apocalyptic," here, Trocino is not entirely immune from apocalyptic feeling. Even in its most undersold, the antiberlusconismo. To imagine that Mr Berlusconi has left an indelible mark, we postulate an age of innocence when we were not Berlusconi, had not yet grasped the apple and the snake then fruivamo a real culture, not pop stars. But never was this golden age when instead of listening to Allevi Benedetti Michelangeli, while leafing through the dialectic of the Enlightenment rather than Camilleri? I ask you, I do not remember, maybe because I'm young?
Trocino same as the initial manifestation of the cultural popstar duel between the post September 11 Terzani Fallaci and the pages of Corriere. Here, for example, Fallaci. Definitely a pop star when he wrote The Rage and the Pride (the appendix is \u200b\u200bcalled extreme, just happened, Revelation). But Fallaci seventies? Qualle of super-mega-interviews with the protagonists of the twentieth century? Fallaci's A Man of Letters or a child? Not had the look, charisma and the audience of a pop star? E. .. Pasolini? Trocino quoting him finds himself often, as the putative father of a certain feeling that meanders through the new anti-modern pop star. Pasolini was an author on his own tangled and twisted ideology, but simply pensiamolo in the role that he played (which had somehow agreed to interpret) in the cultural debate of the '70s, think of the Literature Stroke was not a pop star - indeed, rather, a rock star - he, too, when he wrote "I know" or "I hate you dear students? And Morante the world saved by children ? And Don Milani, not very harsh of pastoral experience, but that's sweetened vulgata veltroniana , what is not a hero because he rejects the poor students? And Dario For? Indro Montanelli And when it was the history? Enzo Biagi and when it became a trademark (a guarantee of mediocrity) to stick on any industrial product, including comics? All this happened when Berlusconi made the most of the building speculators, not the invented him Midcult. As a result I do not think that has added much to a formula already tried and tested. It has simply taken advantage, as any publisher (Feltrinelli has not done? E Adelphi?) 2. F Actium and the new B ud o. I agree. So what? In my opinion, would agree the same Fazio, is probably the design that has been pursuing for years. At this point, however, an intellectual exercise, I propose: imagine what would Domenica In, the container's Sunday Rai Fazio if he was managing for ten years, as it probably would have happened without edicts Prague and in general without Berlusconi to power. There is no doubt that he would run as it ran Baudo in the eighties: inviting singers and writers, featuring singers and ballet series, and giving the evening the line at 90 th minute. According to Fazio has always wanted me to be there, the reigning Italian on Sunday. There is no doubt that it would be a Sunday nazionalpopolare, but Sunday would it be? An interview with Peter Gabriel (the time that instead of discussing the crime of Avetrana), a curtain with Albanian (instead Platinette), a chat with popular Odifreddi (instead of a service at the end of the world in 2012), a experimental ballet but then un'ospitata of Follett or Calasso presenting their cardboard (instead of a service from the Big Brother house). That would be Sunday? Of course we would have better to do than watch it - but it would be an improvement, not only against the shit that affects our digestion while dozing on the couch, but also in relation to Sunday baudiana? In short, it is noted that the new Fazio Baudo, as bad as Baudo? Baudo Fallaci did not invite or Pasolini, came too late, but it is not even able to find Pier Vittorio Tondelli or Andrea Pazienza. I remember the various incorruptible Bevilacqua, Gervase, De Crescenzo, Luca Goldoni, for goodness sake all nice people, but we're not even bother to end the pop star. But patience is a Fazio would go. And we would have given the nazionalpopolare. Because we believe living in a poor Italy, not knowing how bad it is one in which Berlusconi has won on Sunday and is headed by creatures like Giletti, or to swear.
3. L and ash G ramsc i. For the apocalyptic Trocino the appearance of these pop stars is a clear symptom of the degenerate culture of the left (sometimes appears as Gramsci tutelary deity, the truth is the reflection on Gramsci nazionapopolare was a bit 'thinner). Now, give him to the left is a national sport that I practice as an amateur (but a child I dreamed of professionalism). But, in fact, who told us that bred and left? Not him, he has not said. From what you should know? And Mauro Corona? It could easily be considered more an author the right, with its apocalyptic primitivism? Sometimes, rather than be left, these pop stars "are" from the left: see Petrini, with its history of communist section. Trocino then insists on the 'betrayal' by Petrini, his flirtation with the League. You could simply take note that the founder of Slow Food, from left, deliberately moved up conservative positions that took him by force to cross with traditional movements and identity. Saviano himself, rather than with "Come away with me" is found in small television antiberlusconiana, enjoyed a degree of cross-disciplinary policy, and Socci second side was even an intellectual right (by the way, and Socci? It is not his as a pop star, albeit more local, let's say a neomelodico of parrocchietta? E Veneziani? E Buttafuoco? E chi li legge? Sì, appunto, è il solito problema della cultura italiana di destra, che non trovi nessuno disposto a leggertela, figurati a passarti i riassunti). Il fatto che da sinistra spuntino più popstar dipende se mai dal fatto che sempre di consumo culturale stiamo parlando, e il bacino di questo consumo è sempre il famoso ceto medio riflessivo coi capelli grigi che intasa le librerie Feltrinelli alle sei di pomeriggio di ogni santo sabato: i libri e i dischi li comprano praticamente solo loro (per dire io Trocino l'ho preso in biblioteca), quindi è abbastanza naturale che oggi le popstar nascano lì. Ma non restano lì , questo mi sembra importante. Si diventa popstar when you manage to break through their traditional basin and also like all the other . The same Camilleri, before turning to invective involved, has gained its popularity on the thing that exists on the cross benches of the literary marketplace: the yellow serial. Stuff basically conservative, not because the law usually prevails and the Order is restored: except in those years there was a huge appreciation of film noir from the left, which allowed Camilleri and his readers not to perceive that guilt - but also that delicious sense of the forbidden - that had the 'companions' of thirty years ago that showed off Marcuse on the shelves but on the night of your stay Yellow piled Mondadori. C averaged. . .
