The Adventures of Pinocchio - A story for adults
One of the most widely read books in the world, considered a metaphor for the human condition, and suitable for a variety of interpretations, The Adventures of Pinocchio has had a major impact on world culture. The book responds to a prerogative that belongs only to masterpieces: that of being out of time. The book focuses on the psychological investigation of his central character Pinocchio, while trying to discover a humanity lost in the vacuum of technology and science.
The myth of Pinocchio is used to condemn the culture of violence and consumerism. Collodi successfully uses metaphorical interactions, bipolarities, and ambiguous miracles. Pinocchio's identity is often played to the limit, imagined by himself and everyone he meets along the way. Pinocchio is the name of life that is simultaneously inorganic, human and animal.
The Adventures of Pinocchio explore how experiences gained in heterotopic space give the individual the ability to change panoramic vision, and how these experiences can ultimately show us how we can recover or restore our existence as individual subjects.

Italia Lucca 1 Un tesoro nascosto tra le sue mura
Lucca is a city and comune in Tuscany, Central Italy, situated on the river Serchio in a fertile plain near the Tyrrhenian Sea. It is the capital city of the Province of Lucca. Among other reasons, it is famous for its intact Renaissance-era city walls. Lucca was once referred to as the “City of One Hundred Churches”. Today, the number has dwindled, yet the style, grace and beauty still impress. Opening to a relatively large piazza, the façade of San Frediano never fails to impress visitors with its glass, gold and precious stone inlaid mosaic. The Basilica was built during the 6thCentury and the current appearance of the church, very Romanesque in style, was completed in the 12th Century. Named for an Irish Bishop of Lucca (Fridianus), the interior of the church is striking in its austere simplicity.
Ridolfo Luigi Boccherini (1743 – 1805) the Italian classical era composer and cellist whose music retained a courtly and galante style while he matured somewhat apart from the major European musical centers, was born in Lucca, Italy, into a musical family.
Piazza della signoria

It has been the center of Florentine political life since the 14th century and is surrounded by important architectural and artistic landmarks such as the Loggia dei Lanzi, the Uffizi Gallery, and Orsanmichele church. Notable sculptures on display include Michelangelo's David and Bartolomeo Ammanati's Neptune fountain. The piazza continues to be a focal point for both locals and tourists in Florence.
Pistoia
Pistoia was originally settled by Gallic, Ligurian, and Etruscan tribes before becoming a Roman colony. It grew to prominence in the 12th century as a free commune, but came under Florentine rule in 1254. Pistoia was an important political and religious center, with many churches built between the 11th-16th centuries, including the Basilica of Our Lady of Humility with its landmark dome. The city lent its name to the pistol and is known for flower markets and nurseries around it.
