RaiNews: In arrivo la "mini luna blu". Di cosa si tratta e quando vederla
SarĂ visibile il 31 maggio. Un fenomeno raro e inconsueto, per questo viene definita "blu"
Many years ago, a comedian used to prank his bosses by drawing cartoons.
Poiché the ideal life develops for depth and manner (it is a theme, it is form), nothing better than to entrust the knots of contemporary anxieties to one’s own diaries.
Many years ago a comedian entertained classmates with caricatures of teachers drawn in his Vitt diary: the fad went around the classroom like a samizdat to return to the threshold after having excited stifled laughter during lessons. In a cartoon, for example, a dinosaur had the face of the Greek teacher: Aristophanes, precisely dodging. He also enjoyed teasing the professors with impromptu performances: one morning, at the beginning of Italian class, he stood up and announced to the stunned students that he had discovered a secret about the Italian teacher, who was a renowned communist intellectual: “He writes on Avvenire, the newspaper of the bishops!” Everyone looks at the teacher, who smiles patiently (even today that comedian is surprised by his impetuosity, but the fact that he was one of the smart kids at the institution, which allowed him to know words like “impetuosity”) “And this is the proof!”, he said, with the magician’s exuberance of pulling a rabbit out of a hat, pulling from the soft brick-colored leather folder (the same with which his father had made the gymnasium) a photocopy of a fake first page of Avvenire that he had doctored to appear real (the work of an entire afternoon: transferrable, glue, scissors and photocopier, at the time there was no Photoshop), in which a six-column headline, “The courage of the truth,” a recurring phrase of the teacher, was displayed.
The giggles became laughter when that comedian began to read the article, a parody of the lesson of the previous day on Leopardi. The teacher laughed too, and continued to laugh during the interrogation he immediately gave her. Always her, later, noticing her talent, she proposed to collaborate with satirical cartoons on the bolognian pages of UnitĂ (He, a good boy Catholic, ending up on UnitĂ ? Never! Ten years later, Staino published some of his satirical cartoons on Tango).
That comedian also wrote humorous short stories, fueled by an apprenticeship, lasting the three summers of middle school, with a remarkably witty contemporary whose father had a home office equipped with an Olivetti and a Philips cassette recorder. There, the two young Amurri and Verde wrote surreal texts and recorded fake radio programs, laughing all afternoon; and with them the friends who, knowing this, came to visit and settled on the sofa as if in a theater (when a third voice was needed, the two called their younger brother, who would also become famous: he was only 6 years old, but already with perfect comedic timing).
Let’s return to the gymnasium. One of the short stories featured a school inspector who, after a bank robbery, interrogated the witnesses and convinced himself that the thief was the cashier, the only one with a motive, the ability, and the opportunity; but the inspector had no proof. Then he organized a elaborate staging, for which the cashier ended up believing she was in a dream. At this point, the inspector (who was called Duerf: but how awake that boy was?) ridiculed her, telling her that the theft was useless, because you can’t take anything away from dreams, upon waking; but he would have liked to know how she had done it. The vain cashier told him, it was a dream. And the inspector Duerf arrested her. (Incredible? Not more than an investigation in Garlasco).
The satirical books of that comedian recall facts that sometimes only today, with the benefit of hindsight, can be fully appreciated. For example, in the 2001 election campaign, Berlusconi took issue with the editor of El Mundo, a conservative newspaper in Spain that supported Aznar and which had expressed strong criticism of Berlusconi due to his conflicts of interest and judicial problems. Regarding the editor of the Mundo, Berlusconi said: “What do you want to listen to the editor of the Mundo, who made half of Europe laugh with a video showing him being whipped by a prostitute!” That comedian commented: “Well, this increases my esteem for the editor of the Mundo. I’d like to see Berlusconi whipped by a prostitute. This would increase my esteem for the prostitute.”
20 years later, the whole world was laughing at Berlusconi, the "bunga bunga" pimp; who knows how many laughs the editor of the Mundo got.
