News dated
Modena’s Crocetta, Giardino and Rotonda libraries are offering a programme on death, mystery and memory from 26 October to 7 November. The first session is scheduled today at Rotonda, at 9.30am and 11am: an imagined interview with Mary Shelley led by Alessandra Donelli. It is reserved for upper-secondary school classes, rather than being an unrestricted family event. [1]
Later activities include stories, reflections on loss, local memory and witches in popular culture, with events for different ages. The activities are free; participants should check the programme for each event’s access and booking arrangements. The stated aim is to provide cultural opportunities to discuss sensitive subjects: the announcement does not measure effects on people’s fears or describe a therapy. [1]
The bright side
The libraries offer different settings and forms of expression for discussing difficult subjects, with events designed for different audiences. [1]
One idea, in simple words
Modena’s libraries have prepared a programme of events from 26 October to 7 November. They will explore mystery, death and memory through stories and activities. The first session is scheduled for 26 October at 9.30am and 11am in Rotonda Library. It imagines an interview with the writer Mary Shelley. Alessandra Donelli leads it, and it is reserved for upper-secondary school classes. Other events are intended for different ages. They are free, but each event’s booking rules need checking. For example, discussing a story together can offer a way to ask a difficult question. This is an example of conversation, not a treatment. The programme announces cultural opportunities: it does not establish that people’s fears have already changed. [1]
