In the Middle Ages did not take much: a look, a tic, mania and immediately was labeled, processed, and - perhaps - burned. Then comes the season of the great plagues and then by the spreaders almost always identified as foreigners, foreign . The first theme I had the opportunity to study a beautiful essay edited by never enough lamented Marisa Milani (who was my teacher during language and literature of folk traditions University of Padova): witches and devils in the processes of s. Office of Venice (1554-1587) [ 1998, Bassano del Grappa, Tassotti editor]; on there is a very valuable second-edition unfortunately quite expensive, 90 euro but it is the republication of a work "old" for 180 years - (by Milan Casa del Manzoni ) of the famous work of Ripamonti Plague of Milan in 1630. And the persecution continues today. What happened to Brembate above seems to me absolutely significant: it took was a mistranslation why was unleashed once again hunting all'untore to different from us. Of course: then it happens that in Lamezia Terme another immigrant kills 7 people and is easy for anyone, even those who profess to not racist, take easy conclusions. And then maybe puts us well before the Justice life sentence the perpetrators of a double murder and then trucidissimo ridurgli worth significantly enough to make the governor exclaimed Venetian Zaia: but that justice is this? . Yet again there are examples that make you think. The first is its mayor - Northern League - the country's small Yara, Diego Locatelli, that the first appearance of the usual posters praising the revenge comments I'm sure the community will respond calmly and rationally, but obviously the hope of all us is that this story ends well, "said the first citizen of Brembo Diego Locatelli.
The second (and tells him to Il Corriere della Sera today) comes from Teresina Natalino incident that has lost her husband Fortunato Bernardi. The pastor of Lamezia, Teresina said - addressing the immigrant - I forgive him because even my husband, if he were alive, he would have done the same thing, because you know, for life, the two of us we were the first educators and our children and then to all the pupils we taught the rule of law, justice, nonviolence .
is the logia is surprising that the revolution. But above all, here is the logic that educates, who teaches, which teaches forgiveness . Which is accompanied - of course! - The desire for human justice take its course and who was wrong should be condemned. But even here Teresina, in words that touch on the concept of highest and most noble holiness - says what really matters is that the Moroccan boy (through the prison ed) understand, he realizes that you learn something from all the evil he has done. Not counting the effort. Count education.
May the force be with you!
PS I hope at least this time there are no errors ;)
