I live in a medieval city, but in reality, it is a village of 4000 souls because, in the 1571, it was given the status of City and diocese nominated by the Pope Pius V.
I downloaded a watercolor to represents the centre of my little village, where on the right there is the house of Ascanio Condivi, the first biographer of Michelangelo, when he was painting...

I think that a memorable character is linked to our empathy he/she is our personal projection in a different environment, think about Little Dorrit of Dickens, we can live with him his drama without being in prison, and it is memorable because it seems all real.

I'll bring with me a book of Desiderius Erasmus (1466-1536) he was a Dutch Philosopher, Theologian and humanist.
He travelled in many countries in Europe in search of knowledges, experience and cognitions that can be obtained only living in different coutries of Europe.

In my opinion the concept of what is justice and what is injustice is an infinite dialogue.
All begins with the Plato's republic and today we are discussing on it, this means that we won't never have a common definition of justice, because none knows the human beings and the humanity will never reach this target. For a correct judgment a judge should be a... -
Mr. Italo Perazzoli made a comment
The freedom is conditioned by some rules to follow, and this is positive, because as human beings we are subject to our egoisms, we want to prevaricate on the others.
We should be conscious that we live in the Plato's Cave. -
Mr. Italo Perazzoli made a comment
We do not have a common definition of freedom, this imply that it is open to debate. it seems to me a 'Socratic dialogue' which is open to myriad of definition.
In my opinion the borders of freedom are given by the State and this is positive because the population is involved through their votes. -

After this course I will take into consideration the Semantic Web.

Mr. Italo Perazzoli made a comment
It is important because I cam improve my cultural interests like Art, Literature and Philosophy.

Mr. Italo Perazzoli made a comment
The internet must not be the only source of information, if so someone one day will be able to influence the minds following their interests.
In this perspective we won't be able to judge someone or something because we will have only a point of view and by a pre packaged context. -
The web has changed and will change my interaction with the world.
A practical example, I am planning to visit London and the its magnificent national gallery for the coming year, well thanks to this technology now I am studying carefully some paintings where I can zoom and see every particular, this is fundamental for observing and not looking at a painting. -
Richard I agree with you.
Today my fantasy has no limits, try to imagine that I am in front of a painting of Monet,.
According to this principle it is possible to smell it (if there are flowers), listen to their voices, touch the painting, and where possible the involvment of the other senses.
Unfortunately, It seems to me a fantasy rather than a reality. -
I agree with you, Laura, the primary mission of a museum is to educate tourists and the local community. Maybe the spirit of this unit is to change our minds about the concept of our museums, I'd like to imagine a museum like an open space, a sort of meeting point for professionals and common people on how to try to resolve the health problems, someone use...
-
The future will be a synergy, between the real and virtual world where, in some way the visitor will interact with the museum. In the case of a museum has not enough money for an exhibition, it will be realised online or in third dimension.

Mr. Italo Perazzoli replied to Ashley Remer
I agree with you Ashley and if there is not money for the Holocaust Memorial Day, a group of motivated and enthusiastic employee, can use their creativity to avoid this problem, not necessarily quality is linked to money.
-
Mr. Italo Perazzoli made a comment
Good purposes but it is difficult to realise, maybe this is possible in big cities, but not certainly in the small towns. The first and unique problem is a lack of money.

Mr. Italo Perazzoli made a comment
In my opinion we should involve the young to discuss on this thematic, but we must not be too moralistic, they will decide if to stop smoking the cigarettes or even to become a new smoker.

Mr. Italo Perazzoli made a comment
Emotions and museums are two inseparable things, they must be dynamics and the visitor will benefit of this dynamicity.
Doing so we will avoid that visiting a museum is a boring experience with the knowledge and that take decisions about displaying emotive objects must be carefully weighted and thinking about the reaction of the visitors, if a visitor will be... -
Mr. Italo Perazzoli made a comment
In my opinion the functions of a museum is not only to educate but to elicit a debate, doing so we will know if we are really interested or we will forget that particular object, painting etc, after a couple of minutes.
A good question (at home) to the visitors should be: Which painting do you remember and why? -
Mr. Italo Perazzoli made a comment
After three minutes, it is impossible to understand and then to write my sensation, on this thematic.
In order to feel something I must breathing and living with other people with the same feelings, this is the emotion given by the physical museum only. -

In my opinion this is our Mission
"At their best, social media build community and enhance communication. In the case of museums, they can provide access to a much wider audience, and can extend the museum visit by allowing a user to continue the aesthetic experience after leaving the museum.
All across the country, museums are already making great use...

It is a mistake to ban the children from visiting a museum, they will be our potential visitors, and the primary mission of a museum is education.
It also true that adult and children visitors must be separated because each group has different needs.

Today a museum must be interactive, there must be a synergy between the guides and the visitors.
Recently I visited a museum with a guide and it was a negative experience, because it was like a run through paintings and sculptures.
We should rethink about this modality because is too superficial and frankly unuseful.
An idea should be that the visitor must... -
Mr. Italo Perazzoli made a comment
Today a museum must be interactive using social media and educational tools like podcast,google arts, thematic video and so on. The main mission is to attract the so called "native digital" if not it will be a classical museum covered by dust and solitude.

I think that William Shakespeare was higly influenced by Queen Elizabeth for many reasons mainly because she was popular and loved by her people, at that time it was possible to meet her in the countryside or in a rural theatre it was also possible to speak directly with her.
As we know Shakespeare was not a superficial playwriter, he used the feminine...

This is a direct speech between Shakespeare and the spectator, he tells us that (my interpretation) we have a responsibility, here on the planet earth "to be or not to be" we must give a sense to our life, to act and not "to die to sleep".

But what really means to be "mad" for instance if I do not believe in God am I mad? Am I forced to act according to the established rules a priori of the society? Can I think differently?

In my opinion the best way to analyze and consequently to understand Hamlet is go to the theater and observing carefully, the different interpretation and behavior of the actors.

“Why is it that all men who have become outstanding in philosophy, statesmanship, poetry, or the arts are melancholic?” (Melancholy, medicine, and the arts - Erin Sullivan)

He is also obsessed by the behavior of his mother, he... -
Mr. Italo Perazzoli made a comment
Hamlet is not only suffering for the mourning of his father, but by the evidence that, his uncle and mother seems to be refractories to pain for them is more or less the same thing.
Personally I think that Hamlet, observing his mother, is conscious that, the love, the true love does not exist, it is only a chemical reaction, a simple and pure sexual activity.

Mr. Italo Perazzoli made a comment
Louis Borges wrote that Hamlet has muted his nature, and it has been recreated by different point of views and interpretations, by illustrious personages like Coleridge, Goethe and Bradley.

I studied this play in occasion of an online course on Shakespeare, which was organised and developed by the University of Exeter.
Being an introduction on Shakespeare, I studied this play for one week only :-(
I see film dedicated to Hamlet and in particular: Dir Kenneth Branagh, with Kenneth Branagh and an old version production transmitted by the BBC.
