Ti è mai venuto spontaneo chiederti "ma perché devo passare ore a leggere e studiare poesie, romanzi, poemi, quando potrei essere sul divano a guardare Netflix?". Suppongo di sì, visto che più o meno a tutti, me incluso, è capitato spesso e volentieri. Le ragioni ci sono, ma spesso facciamo fatica a vederle. E in questo, se me lo permetterai, posso aiutarti io. Non perché Dante sia sempre e comunque meglio di una serie tv, ma perché ha tanto, tanto di bello da dirci, ancora oggi dopo tutti questi secoli che è morto e sepolto: la difficoltà è ascoltarlo senza sbadigliare dopo 2 minuti, e non è sempre così scontato. Ovviamente, questo vale per il povero Dante come per Leopardi (#maiunagioia), Manzoni (questo romanzo non s'ha da fare) e tutti gli altri autori della nostra Penisola. Lascia che io ti faccia da guida turistica nel magico mondo della lingua, della letteratura e della scrittura italiane: piano piano, sarai il primo ad apprezzarle.

Has it ever occurred to you to ask yourself "but why do I have to spend hours reading and studying poems, novels, poems, when I could be on the sofa watching Netflix?". I suppose so, since it has happened to more or less everyone, including me, often.

There are reasons, but we often struggle to see them. And in this, if you allow me, I can help you. Not because Dante is always and in any case better than a TV series, but because he has so much, so much beauty to tell us, even...

Has it ever occurred to you to ask yourself "but why do I have to spend hours reading and studying poems, novels, poems, when I could be on the sofa watching Netflix?". I suppose so, since it has happened to more or less everyone, including me, often.

There are reasons, but we often struggle to see them. And in this, if you allow me, I can help you. Not because Dante is always and in any case better than a TV series, but because he has so much, so much beauty to tell us, even today after all these centuries that he is dead and buried: the difficulty is listening to him without yawning after 2 minutes, and that's not always so obvious. Obviously, this applies to poor Dante as well as to Leopardi (#maiunagioia), Manzoni (this novel should not be done) and all the other authors of our peninsula.

Let me be your tour guide in the magical world of Italian language, literature and writing: little by little, you will be the first to appreciate them.
