HINA AND THE DEAD Palmina, A mistake to lump Bruno Marchi

" the Republic" of September 1, 2006

Even Maraini is committed in the usual prejudices about the South, as happened at the time of the murder of fourteen

Corriere della Sera, 15 August you can read an article title " The Pakistani girl overall habit of harassing women, "signed by Dacia Maraini. The eye reads: "Horrors such as Brescia are not exclusive to the Muslim world." This is a comment about the murder of the young Hina in that of Brescia. The text develops a line of reasoning, endorsed, on the oppression that many women in various parts of the world still suffer because of religious reasons, but not only, with particular reference to Muslim women. At one point the article on the situation turns west and Italian. What is the best that Ms. Maraini, but Tuscan intellectual living in Rome for years, if not going to move up in his memory feminist the case of Palmina Martinelli, burned alive in the fourteen Fasano di Brindisi, because it has been ascertained by the investigations of the judiciary, refused to prostitute herself?

The article continues with a vague reference to honor killing and the rituals conclusions, vaguely politicized.

The reason for this speech is all in the following doubts: but by 1981, that is twenty-five years throughout Italy - given that the note held this intellectual confrontation between Islam and the West - indeed has not occurred any event in the news black useful to his arguments?

writer - just the girl from the city burned to death - even at that time publicly denounced the deformations that the media had acted because of the usual cliches and prejudices on the south. I remember, for example, that the services of the RAI newscasts were mounted so that the square of Fasano when he saw only the glimpse of a film poster emblazoned on the red light, the guiltily omitting three other posters and movie theaters (yes , there were four, at a time when countries of the area there was not even one.) It was said that the cinema shows films " arthouse " dignified and were staged theatrical season at reasonable prices, as it was silent that the City Library had a catalog of thousands of volumes, the list goes on.

I wonder, why go to fish out a news dating back a quarter century ago when, in the meantime, unfortunately, equally heinous crimes, across Italy have seen victims of women? It seems to me that the intellectual in office (and on the day of August, you know, it is also a bit 'annoying to be on duty) has sin in haste and superficiality, or perhaps has been taken by a kind of anthropological bias, so what happened to newspapers and television, as they were concerned to provide a conciliatory picture filled with dangerous generalizations and prejudices, such mafia and spaghetti.

Sure, Fasano problems at that time there were and still are not lacking, it also reflected the reports of the Anti-Mafia Commission a few years ago. But from here to launch the subtle idea that the city can be compared to parts of the world's very poorest and most unfortunate, and culturally different, although, of course, with equal dignity and importance, there runs. The South of Italy is not Islam and Islam is not the South, why create confusion?

speeches like that of Ms. Maraini still seem to testify to a lack of cultural integration between north and south of the country, so how can never be carried to the already difficult integration with other cultures that are coming to us?
