Giuseppe Fornasig - The hope in poetry
The hope in poetry
Towards a new humanism
Giuseppe Fornasig
Description
Fornasarig’s entire work seems to be interpenetrated by the hope of a singular perception of “new humanism” which is the central nucleus. The possible actualization would appear in the contemporary man, when he finds himself carrier of a new mind, where daily conscience and the subconscious meet through the analysis of dreams. A new mind, in which the reality in front of him actualizes, for interaction; a reality that he helps build. The poetic style elevates itself with contents, form, and style. Therefore, in a greedy time such as ours, that grants very little to reading and even less to poetry, the commitment of a poet like Giuseppe Fornasarig contributes on many levels to “re-define” the role of the intellectual. Giorgio Barberi Squarotti understood it very well, and in some letters sent to the author, he stated: «Dear Fornasarig I’m reading with true interest and participation. Your poetry is fundamentally conceptual, between memory, religiousness, moral research, and myth. It’s a very intense discourse, a great one, that includes the reader, and brightens him with truth and grace». And again: «Thank you from the bottom of my heart for the new collection of poems, which I read with great benefit and admiration. I love in particular, the verses of religious vision, of myths old and new, of critical contemplations of the truth of the art».
