Listening personally is missing...

🔁 What goes around comes around.

Scuazzero — Rubbish collector — Grevembroch 3-129

This painting depicts a rubbish collector, called a scoazzér.

Scoazze means rubbish, and the word is still in common use today in Venice.

Venice used non-biodegradable rubbish to prepare muddy areas for building, or for enlarging lagoon islands. The city had a system of scoazzere — designated areas for collecting such refuse — for this purpose.

A quotation from Orwell

I never read the proclamations of generals before battle, the speeches of fuehrers and prime ministers, the solidarity songs of public schools and left-wing political parties, national anthems, Temperance tracts, papal encyclicals and sermons against gambling and contraception, without seeming to hear in the background a chorus of raspberries from all the millions of common men to whom these high sentiments make no appeal.

George Orwell (1903-1950) English writer [pseud. of Eric Arthur Blair]
Essay (1941-09), “The Art of Donald McGill,” Horizon Magazine
