announced by the "cries" of newspapers, they come back again this year the Roman summer events, a schedule of cultural activities, some of them become regular appointments for tourists and natives.
Born 32 years ago, the Roman Summer brought the capital to the levels of other European cities with regard to the wealth of cultural offerings and entertainment.
What's new in this edition?
Looking at the rankings of the winners of the funding scheme for local events and festivals, it would seem nothing.

rescheduled a few years ago, at the time of Veltroni or Rutelli, would find few differences shot.
On balance, the Estate Romana, which was hurled against the center-right in the last election race for the leadership of the Capitol, it is not distorted or renewed by the new administration led by Aleman, and remains for many a sentence from which seems hard to shake.
on the back of the Roman Corriere della Sera Andrea Garibaldi, highlighting the richness of the proposal This year, however, poses the problem of lack of a sign, an event that will shed light "interpretation of the world" that distinguishes the new course Capitoline. And the councilor meets Umberto Croppi, cautious on definitions and apparently offended.
Following the article by Andrea Garibaldi, 19 June 2009 and the response of Umberto Croppi published the next day, always on the Corriere della Sera . The event

Roman summer in search of a sign

Centocinquantaquattro events, 650 individual events, for a total expenditure of 4 million records and 700 000 €. Each Roman, every day or evening has twenty choices between concerts, cinema, theater, art, literature. Even this year 's the' Estate Romana c 'is, as it happens - with ups and downs - for 32 years. Eleven events were preserved "historical", from jazz to Villa Celimontana comedians at the Coliseum, and then concerts of Bruce Springsteen and the Charter Mark and many initiatives related to the Moon, 40 years after landing. Shows refined and popular, mass and 'elite, according to a tradition copied all over the world. However ... Remains a lack of taste. The lack of a scratch, a sign of a fatal blow of the new right-wing majority that rules Rome for thirteen months. A symbolic event, an exhibition, a journey that unveil the Capitol is also produced as culture and not just entertainment, you try an 'interpretation of the world, hopefully the new one. "All we need Maxentius," said one of the executives 's Department of Culture during the presentation of the' Estate Romana. In fact, the movie marathon in the majestic basilica were the seal of Summers Nicolini, as well as free concerts at the Villa Borghese or the holes were the 'footprint Veltroni, who calls the city its generational myths, Paul Simon or Paul McCartney . C 'were the visions: the' popular use of the monuments' s epic film, music for everyone, the periphery toward the center ... The new commissioner Croppi, all 'beginning of quest' year, launched an appeal to the Romans and the world of culture and entertainment to ask for their ideas on 'Estate Romana. They arrived several stimuli. Renzo Arbore - say - to rediscover the Roman spoke with Deaf or Manfredi, asked for a return to the Via Veneto. Pietrangelo Buttafuoco launched appreciation of artists' except by the official salons. " Instead, Pettarin Francis, founder of Maxentius, provoked, "Croppi have the courage to propose an event" right "with international and quality features." We look forward to next summer?

I'm not an expert in understanding the topography and location of the actions on 'left-right axis is often difficult to me. So I see little sense of 'article in the Corriere Andrea Garibaldi today, in which he says that he would have expected a "sign", an "event right" in the program of' Summer in Rome. To explain is the 'example of Maxentius of Nicolini, the film festival was born autoestintasi thirty-two years ago and now a bit'. It was an 'important innovation but it is unclear what sign to have represented, certainly not a sign of the left. The political left was of its founder, not its form and content: the two most important events were the 'impressive film version of Wagner's Parsifal Syberberg operated by the mammoth and Napoleon by Abel Gance. Garibaldi seems to repeat a refrain launched a few months after the 'settlement of the Board: you can not see the project. As if the 'bundle of cultural events and creatures of the previous decade did catch a glimpse - albeit a posteriori - any architecture. Now, its polar opposite, Stefano Crippa, the Manifesto of two days ago, fears a 'traditionally popular summer "in which" Roman "and" tradition "are the masters. Who give a reason? Neither of them. What we're trying to do with qualche successo, è rimettere ordine, migliorare l' offerta ma, soprattutto, far crescere il livello e le possibilità di partecipazione degli operatori e dei cittadini, nonché riportare la Città nei circuiti internazionali della cultura e dell' arte. Cioè stiamo facendo ciò che è richiesto a chi ha responsabilità di governo. Se il segno che Garibaldi si aspetta è quello della linea politica di guareschiana memoria, se crede che a piazza Campitelli si sia insediato il MinCulPop, quel segnale da me lo aspetterà invano.
