Who was Pier Paolo Pasolini, the poet of conspiracy and justice?

Writer, poet, debater, director, painter. But also anti-68, anti-abortion, anti-modern. Pier Paolo Pasolini embodied in Twentieth century The total artist, the genius with which any initiative he decides to undertake becomes a successful operation. Whatever medium he used, his work touched on major contemporary issues with questions and provocations that still question us today. Total Artist It was also so for the way he lives his life, in constant exposure to his own body, his desire, his very being.

Cursed PasoliniFor his time he loved him so much but he also hated him so much. For his sexuality that in the declaration of homosexuality he never wanted to normalize, become a family, choose the path and children of life as the place of his desire. For his heresy, for always being on the other side as after Valley Julia The two sides with the police against Children bourgeoisie This is a clear. With Fireflies he laments the past in a retrograde manner, evoking an ancestral world made of exploitation and male power. These distortions are not seen or reported. exactly the contrary. Nostalgia for the world overwhelmed by what we will call later Globalisation It’s too strong. Thus, he turns his back on abortion Feminism who never invented their reasons. Pasolini expelled from PCI On charges of debauchery, he underwent 33 trials and one hundred complaints. It is inconvenient, outside of any church. However, the one who is persecuted by the authorities for his ideas and language is one of the fathers of the Italian conspiracy.

It is no coincidence that the last review Happening every dayAnd the “Millennium”, He devoted an article to the judicial persecution he was subjected to. Regardless of the apparent contradiction – thehome appliance Handcuffs protest handcuffs a Pasolini It is clear the thread that connects the great writer to justice and conspiracy theorists who are often the same thing. Of course, a clarification must be made at once: on the one hand, we are talking about a great writer and a great thinker, and on the other, the ideological waste, devoid of talent, which in recent years has also devoured our culture and intellectuals. country. But one cannot, after so many years, accuse the article published in November 14, 1974 On Corriere della Sera What is this coup? I know (the names): a public indictment against the political class that allegedly concealed those responsible for the massacres. I know the names – wrote – but I have no proof. I don’t even have any evidence.”

The statement of justice who decides guilt by trampling on the presumption of innocence, who sends people to prison on the basis of unverified theories, who organizes summary trials in the public arena on the basis of personal convictions. Yes, this is correct Pasolini He was prophetic, and certainly he was about what the general climate of the country would be like twenty years later, thirty years after his death. The atmosphere continues today. One year after this article was published, the November 2, 1975, Kill all PasoliniIdroscalo de Ostia. Guilty to judges Benno Pelosisaid the frog, who admitted thirty years later that he had fought Pasolini, in an interview with Franca Liusini From not being alone at the crime scene. Later he will also name the so-called accomplices. But Pelosi does not speak by accident. Conspiracy theories about Pasolini’s death have been nurtured for years and years. Some say he was killed for writing the article I know the namesOthers relate the mystery to the Salò movie to be released shortly after his death from which some reels were stolen during filming.

at 1986when it is published petroleum, The account of his death goes further. The novel is “incomplete”, but perhaps precisely because of this “incomplete” it is from a stylistic and literary point of view, a real case. The part that is inserted into the monumental drawing of the work creates an element of intense contradiction: the overall and epic narrative, the ambition to tell an entire country, through the character of the hero Carlo divided between good and evil and that to a specific person. Point will wake up in a woman’s body. there in petroleum Every Pasolini ideology that must be investigated, understood and examined. But there are those who wanted to see us first and foremost the cause of his death. The critique of power in Palazzo Palace (his populist definition is it) is the glue of the work in which the events took placeI am. What if they killed him for it? What if Petrolio was related to hello And the reels stolen?

In 2010, in order not to miss anything, Marcelo del Otri, He claimed to have found a missing part of the novel. New shades, new guesses. Instead the only certainty is that Pasolini He was killed by one of the boys of life, and this does not decrease. It goes without saying that the legend, the poet, the great intellectual had an unclassifiable sex life, for many morally intolerable. But those who liked conjectures, definitions that nurture doubt, and a culture of assuming guilt. They loved these aspects of Pasolini so much that at his death they anticipated this passion for irrationality, anti-politics, and everything that does not fall within the rule of law. Dear Pasolini, let us tell you, how much damage I have done!
