The approach of the National Day to celebrate 150 years since the proclamation of the Unity of Italy, as most regular readers will remember the blog has already been the subject of some of my thoughts, character and citing a general reasoning same content appeared on the virtual pages of the paper followed local news Legnano News.Tali reflections have been transformed, as you will read below, in a letter that we sent some days ago Legnanesi associations with whom we have collaborated in recent times.
Some of them were already moving on this issue and it was almost immediate response by the invitation reached us for a discussion on the "state art "with regard to the initiatives envisaged for that event.
But rather than work in progress that we are beginning, I would note that it is shared by the readers of Legnano Making (and as it turns around, as the my blog) the spirit of our request submitted last February and that only a lack, needless to say our administration, the text of the email spread is as follows:
Within the Association is debated in this period around the topic of current events related to the 150th anniversary of the unification of Italy in Legnano.
few days ago virtual city on the sheet appeared declarations Gianni bag (shown in this post: http://cosdamatti.blogspot.com/2011/01/150-anni-con-poche-idee.html), which raise serious issues of management of this important event by the City, and the Committee responsible for organizing them, of which very little of the work done since 2007 is known to the city.
Making Legnano believes that accepting that the core of big events will be limited to a ceremony of "elitist" and calls for a pecuniary disbursement (though with the aim of the charity) and a corollary of events related exclusively to the world of the Palio, is reductive and blatant misrepresentations of the spirit of the celebrations planned between 16 and 17 March next year.
The fact that thanks to the battle of 1176, which enhances the spirit of Lombardi, who fought under the Northern League, do not forget also against other Lombardi led by Svevo, ours is one of only two designated cities nel'Inno di Mameli should not forget that over the past century and a half Legnano took part in the history of the country, less "glorious" perhaps, but more involved and be worthy of emphasis that the only place (albeit symbolic) where the two armies clashed in battle.
In our opinion does not deserve Legnano reductive similar initiatives, and we ask you to extend this discussion it may be possible that the associative cultural and political life of this city do not know how to make a suggestion different and less "medieval" than that proposed by the Committee and the Administration.
The industrial tradition of Legnanesi such as suggesting that the wood may be remembered that the unification of Italy has contributed to the prestige of their work, with their artworks and artifacts that part of the world commissioned.
a wood that has built its welfare through the hard work in many factories (Pensotti, Franco Tosi, cantons) and can be celebrated through a path cultural and "physical" possibly expert in the field, linking these symbols on the occasion of the anniversary.
Our Association is very small and limited contribution to raise the issue but believes that can be used to power the opportunity to compare a possible alternative proposal from the one that comes from building Malinverni.
We waited for the spread that was officially (after many hesitations) the choice came last Friday to set aside March 17 as the day of the Feast Nazionale.Ed now extending the invitation to read Making friends in Legnano for a contribution to the debate.
