texts 1992 2016

The current edition is available in English and made up of all the texts previously published by the author between 1992 and 2016, along with some other original texts, some of which have been the subject of online prepublications, written in 2016 and 2017. This book is more than a twenty-five-year progress report in terms of writing, having gone hand in hand with, as a counterpoint, a wealth of experience in the world of work, like a celebration of life and unique paths in all their complexity.

As soon as the invention of photography made it possible to be photographed with one's loved one, early daguerreotypes - small, unique images housed in their cases - were made as tokens of enduring affection or intimacy. Male couples were no exception. Under strict Victorian moral conventions photographs of the male nude were reserved strictly for academic study by artists. It was not until the early twentieth-century that the first openly homosexual photographers were able to explore the overtly erotic, and this they did by wrapping their subjects in historical reference by evoking images of ancient Greece or Pre-Raphaelite symbolism. After Alfred Kinsey's revelations of male sexuality, pub...

Francesco's Italy

Following the success of Francesco's Venice, Francesco da Mosto ventures further afield, this time taking in all of Italy. As he visits the spectacular lakes and fashionable cities of the north and passes through the hills of Tuscany before heading south towards Rome, Naples, and Palermo, he celebrates the country's art and culture--its cathedrals, churches, palaces, opera houses, paintings, sculpture, music, and cuisine. Introducing us to many of the figures who populate the country's rich and vibrant history, his journey also takes in Italian society as it is today. Splendidly illustrated with John Parker's breathtaking color photos and enlivened with marvelous anecdotes about his family and the fascinating characters he meets along the way, Francesco's Italy is the story of both the country we all know and love and the secret Italy only an insider can reveal.

Last Falls

This essay about political fiction, musical biography, psychological reflection and, in the final chapter, "A dead-end universe", science-fiction, pushes the limits of fiction and makes in the field of literary essays, whose territory is always characterized by terminology problems, at the edge of pure concepts, which are to be found in other essays that aren’t expressly apparent here: philosophical essays. Related approaches create the unity of this essay around high standards, individualism, intellectual rigor and disillusionment. The Last Falls metaphor, explaining the title of the work, is reflected in incomplete elements of truth, which condemn the exercise undertaken to synthetize information to certain failure.
