1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:11,779
La Escuela Oficial de Idiomas de Carabanchel ha realizado en ocasión de la Noche de los Libros

2
00:00:11,779 --> 00:00:16,019
esta lectura de obras literarias en varios idiomas. Buena visión.

3
00:00:18,120 --> 00:00:22,359
I'm going to read the first page of Call Me By Your Name by Andrea Asimov.

4
00:00:24,420 --> 00:00:31,620
Later, the word, the voice, the attitude. I've never heard anyone use later to say goodbye before.

5
00:00:32,200 --> 00:00:34,759
It sounded harsh, curt and dismissive,

6
00:00:35,219 --> 00:00:37,259
spoken with the veiled indifference of people

7
00:00:37,259 --> 00:00:39,399
who may not care to see or hear from you again.

8
00:00:40,399 --> 00:00:42,439
It is the first thing I remember about him.

9
00:00:42,759 --> 00:00:44,479
I can hear it still today, later.

10
00:00:45,460 --> 00:00:48,600
I shut my eyes, say the words, and I'm back in Italy,

11
00:00:48,600 --> 00:00:52,200
so many years ago, walking down a tree-lined driveway,

12
00:00:52,820 --> 00:00:56,060
watching him step out of the cab, billow-web blue shirt,

13
00:00:56,460 --> 00:01:00,399
wide-open collar, sunglasses, straw hat, skin everywhere.

14
00:01:01,619 --> 00:01:19,359
suddenly he's shaking my hand handing me his backpack removing his suitcase from the trunk of the cab asking if my father is home it might have started right there and then the shirt the rolled-up sleeves the rounded balls of his heels slipping in and out of his frayed

15
00:01:19,359 --> 00:01:29,420
eager to test the hard gravel path that led to our house every stride already asking which way to the beach this summer's house guest another bore

16
00:01:29,420 --> 00:01:43,159
then almost without thinking and with his back already turned to the car he waved the back of his free hand and darted as careless later to another passenger in the car who has probably split the fare from the station

17
00:01:43,159 --> 00:01:55,980
no name added no jest to smooth out the ruffled leave-taking nothing his one word sent off brisk bold and blunted take your pick he couldn't be bothered with

18
00:01:55,980 --> 00:02:10,719
you watch i thought this is how he'll say good-bye to us when the time comes with a gruff slapdash later meanwhile we'd have to put up with him for six long weeks i was thoroughly intimidated the unapproachable sort

19
00:02:10,719 --> 00:02:18,860
I could grow to like him though, from rounded chin to rounded heel, then within days I would learn to hate him.

20
00:02:40,719 --> 00:02:46,639
for his commune. They lived there in clandestine. The Greek, he, came like that,

21
00:02:47,099 --> 00:02:52,900
went from Athens to the 34B amphitheater of the faculty of Jussieu to testify to the dictatorship

22
00:02:52,900 --> 00:02:58,219
of the colonels. The room was full, I was in the first row, sitting on the steps, right leg

23
00:02:58,219 --> 00:03:06,580
tense. I shivered. A resistance was facing us. My name is Samuel Hakounis and I bring you

24
00:03:06,580 --> 00:03:10,879
aujourd'hui le salut des étudiants de l'école polytechnique, qui ont bravé les chars de la

25
00:03:10,879 --> 00:03:17,439
dictature, et pas celui des étudiantes, a coupé une voix dans la salle. Silence dans l'assemblée.

26
00:03:18,159 --> 00:03:24,400
Quelques femmes ont applaudi la remarque. Le grec, lui, a souri. Il était amusé. Il a regardé la

27
00:03:24,400 --> 00:03:30,240
jeune fille, debout dans la travée. Elle s'appelait Aurore. Je pensais que ça allait de soi, mademoiselle,

28
00:03:30,319 --> 00:03:36,139
mais dans votre pays, cela n'a pas l'air d'être le cas. Il parlait un français magnifique, comme

29
00:03:36,139 --> 00:03:42,159
une langue apprise en secret. Il a pu le verre d'eau poser sur la table, observant la foule

30
00:03:42,159 --> 00:03:47,740
silencieuse. Assis à côté de lui, un homme l'a invité à continuer. Ce n'était ni l'un de nos

31
00:03:47,740 --> 00:03:53,139
camarades, ni un professeur. Il était entré dans la salle avec le grec. Je connaissais son visage.

32
00:03:54,580 --> 00:04:01,840
Je m'appelle donc Samuel Hakounis et je vous apporte aujourd'hui le salut des étudiantes

33
00:04:01,840 --> 00:04:06,479
and students of the Polytechnic School who have braved the charges of the dictatorship.

34
00:04:07,199 --> 00:04:10,199
Words that would deserve to be masculine.

35
00:04:11,139 --> 00:04:15,699
Applause, laughter, Aurore herself raised her hand to say that she was going.

36
00:04:15,699 --> 00:04:24,079
And then Samuel told, without effect, without emotion, a precise and dark story.

37
00:04:26,980 --> 00:04:31,220
I will read the beginning of the novel Il Colibri by Sandro Veronesi.

38
00:04:31,220 --> 00:04:37,360
The Trieste district of Rome is, one could say, a center of this history from many other

39
00:04:37,360 --> 00:04:38,360
centers.

40
00:04:38,360 --> 00:04:42,399
It is a district that has always oscillated between elegance and decadence, between luxury

41
00:04:42,399 --> 00:04:47,899
and mediocrity, between privilege and ordinariness, and for now so vast.

42
00:04:47,899 --> 00:04:54,139
It is useless to describe it further, because its description could be boring at the beginning

43
00:04:54,139 --> 00:04:56,779
of the story, even counterproductive.

44
00:04:56,779 --> 00:05:05,660
Otherwise, the best description that can be given of any place is to tell what happens to you, and here something important is about to happen.

45
00:05:05,660 --> 00:05:15,660
Let's put it this way, one of the things that happens in this story, like many other stories, happens in the Trieste neighborhood in Rome on a mid-October morning in 1999,

46
00:05:15,660 --> 00:05:25,660
in particular at the corner between Via Chiana and Via Reno, on the first floor of one of those palaces that we will no longer be able to describe, where thousands of other things have already happened.

47
00:05:25,660 --> 00:05:33,660
Only the thing that is more decisive and, so to speak, potentially essential for the life of the protagonist of this story.

48
00:05:33,660 --> 00:05:40,660
Dr. Marco Carrera, says the plaque on the door of his clinic, specialist in oculology and ophthalmology,

49
00:05:40,660 --> 00:05:48,660
that door that still separates him from the most critical moment of his life from many other critical moments.

50
00:05:48,660 --> 00:06:04,459
Hallo, der Vorleser von Bernhard Schlink, 1995, ein Abschnitt.

51
00:06:05,839 --> 00:06:12,579
Am Nachmittag, bevor ich Sie abholen sollte, rief ich im Gefängnis an.

52
00:06:13,199 --> 00:06:16,360
Zuerst sprach ich mit der Leiterin.

53
00:06:17,079 --> 00:06:19,079
Ich bin ein wenig nervös, wissen Sie.

54
00:06:19,800 --> 00:06:27,800
Normalerweise wird niemand nach so langer Haft entlassen, bevor er nicht zunächst stunden- oder tageweise draußen war.

55
00:06:28,819 --> 00:06:30,620
Frau Schmitz hat das verweigert.

56
00:06:31,439 --> 00:06:33,279
Sie wird sich morgen nicht leicht tun.

57
00:06:35,160 --> 00:06:36,980
Ich wurde mit Hannah verbunden.

58
00:06:38,639 --> 00:06:40,240
Überleg dir, was wir morgen machen.

59
00:06:42,040 --> 00:06:48,019
Ob du gleich nach Hause willst oder ob wir in den Wald oder an den Fluss wollen.

60
00:06:49,079 --> 00:06:55,079
Ich überleg's mir. Du bist immer noch ein großer Planer, nicht wahr?

61
00:06:56,220 --> 00:07:01,360
Das ärgerte mich. Es ärgerte mich, wie wenn mir Freundinnen gelegentlich sagten,

62
00:07:01,360 --> 00:07:08,300
ich sei nicht spontan genug, funktioniere zu sehr über den Kopf statt über den Bauch.

63
00:07:09,740 --> 00:07:13,579
Sie merkte in meinem Schweigen meinen Ärger und lachte.

64
00:07:14,620 --> 00:07:18,959
Ärgere dich nicht, Jungchen. Ich hab's nicht böse gemeint.

65
00:07:19,079 --> 00:07:25,439
Ich hatte Hanna auf der Bank als alte Frau wieder getroffen.

66
00:07:26,480 --> 00:07:33,639
Sie hatte ausgesehen wie eine alte Frau und gerochen wie eine alte Frau.

67
00:07:34,800 --> 00:07:37,139
Ich hatte gar nicht auf ihre Stimme geachtet.

68
00:07:37,920 --> 00:07:40,560
Ihre Stimme war ganz jung geblieben.

69
00:07:42,199 --> 00:07:50,209
Am letzten Tag, am letzten Morgen war Hanna tot.

70
00:07:50,769 --> 00:07:53,990
Sie hatte sich bei Tagesanbruch erhängt.

71
00:07:55,069 --> 00:07:58,009
Als ich kam, wurde ich zur Leiterin gebracht.

72
00:07:59,370 --> 00:08:05,649
Erstmal sah ich sie, eine kleine, dünne Frau mit dunkelblonden Haaren und Brille.

73
00:08:06,709 --> 00:08:13,069
Sie wirkte unscheinbar, bis sie zu reden begann mit Kraft und Wärme und strengem Blick

74
00:08:13,069 --> 00:08:16,629
und energischen Bewegungen der Hände und Arme.

75
00:08:16,629 --> 00:08:24,850
Sie fragte mich nach dem Telefongespräch vom letzten Abend und der Begegnung vor einer Woche,

76
00:08:25,610 --> 00:08:28,850
ob ich etwas geahnt, gefürchtet hätte.

77
00:08:30,170 --> 00:08:31,050
Ich verneinte.

78
00:08:31,649 --> 00:08:35,509
Ich hatte auch keine Ahnung oder Befürchtung gegeben, die ich verdrängt hatte.

79
00:08:36,669 --> 00:08:37,889
Woher kennen Sie sich?

80
00:08:39,389 --> 00:08:41,169
Wir wohnten in der Nähe.

81
00:08:41,169 --> 00:08:47,389
Sie sah mich prüfend an und ich merkte, dass ich noch mehr sagen musste.

82
00:08:48,570 --> 00:08:53,190
Wir wohnten in der Nähe und haben uns kennengelernt und befreundet.

83
00:08:54,250 --> 00:08:58,730
Als junger Student war ich dann beim Prozess, bei dem sie verurteilt wurde.

84
00:09:00,330 --> 00:09:04,049
Wieso haben Sie Frau Schmitz Kassetten geschickt?

85
00:09:05,330 --> 00:09:07,289
Ich schwieg.

86
00:09:07,289 --> 00:09:12,610
Sie wussten, dass sie Analphabetin war, nicht wahr?

87
00:09:13,769 --> 00:09:15,190
Woher wussten sie es?

88
00:09:17,090 --> 00:09:19,529
Ich zuckte mit den Schultern.

89
00:09:20,350 --> 00:09:23,870
Ich sah nicht, was Hannas und meine Geschichte sie anging.

90
00:09:24,830 --> 00:09:31,350
Ich hatte Tränen im Brust und Hals und Angst, nicht reden zu können.

91
00:09:32,509 --> 00:09:34,370
Ich wollte vor ihr nicht weinen.

92
00:09:34,370 --> 00:09:45,950
sie hat wohl gesehen wie es um mich stand kommen sie mit ich zeige ihnen frau schmitz zelle sie

93
00:09:45,950 --> 00:09:54,289
ging voraus drehte sich aber immer wieder um um mir etwas zu berichten oder zu erklären hier

94
00:09:54,289 --> 00:10:01,129
habe es einen anschlag von terroristen gegeben hier sei die näherei in der hannah gearbeitet

95
00:10:01,129 --> 00:10:07,409
hätte. Hier habe Hanna einmal einen Sitzstreik gemacht, bis die Streichung der Bibliotheksmittel

96
00:10:07,409 --> 00:10:17,429
korrigiert wurde. Hier gehe es zur Bibliothek. Vor der Zelle blieb sie stehen. Frau Schmitz hat

97
00:10:17,429 --> 00:10:29,669
nicht gepackt. Sie sehen die Zelle so, wie sie in ihr gelebt hat. Bett, Schrank, Tisch und Stuhl,

98
00:10:29,669 --> 00:10:36,330
An der Wand über dem Tisch ein Regal und in der Ecke hinter der Tür Waschbecken und Klo.

99
00:10:37,409 --> 00:10:40,490
Statt eines Fensters Glasbausteine.

100
00:10:41,669 --> 00:10:43,210
Der Tisch war leer.

101
00:10:44,129 --> 00:10:51,409
Im Regal standen Bücher, ein Wecker, ein Stoffbär, zwei Becher, Pulverkaffee, Teeldosen,

102
00:10:51,409 --> 00:10:59,409
das Kassettengerät und in zwei niedrigen Fächern die von mir besprochenen Kassetten.

103
00:10:59,669 --> 00:11:05,769
Es sind nicht alle da. Die Leiterin war meinem Blick gefolgt.

104
00:11:06,509 --> 00:11:12,789
Frau Schmitz hat immer einige Kassetten dem Hilfsdienst blinder Strafsgefangener geliehen.

105
00:11:15,159 --> 00:11:25,480
Ich trat an das Regal. Primo Levi, Elie Wiesel, Tadeusz Borowski, Jean Améry, die Literatur der Opfer.

106
00:11:25,480 --> 00:11:39,659
Neben den autobiografischen Aufzeichnungen von Rudolf Höss, Hanna Arendt's Bericht über Eichmann in Jerusalem und wissenschaftliche Literatur über Konzentrationslager.

107
00:11:41,379 --> 00:11:45,320
Hat Hanna das gelesen?

108
00:11:46,820 --> 00:11:50,600
Sie hat die Bücher jedenfalls mit Bedacht bestellt.

109
00:11:50,600 --> 00:11:57,080
Ich habe schon vor mehreren Jahren eine allgemeine KZ-Bibliografie besorgen müssen.

110
00:11:57,120 --> 00:12:08,740
Und dann hat sie mich vor ein oder zwei Jahren gebeten, ihr Bücher über Frauen in KZs zu nennen, Gefangene und Wärterinnen.

111
00:12:09,820 --> 00:12:16,519
Ich habe an das Institut für Zeitgeschichte geschrieben und eine entsprechende Spezialbibliografie geschickt bekommen.

112
00:12:17,740 --> 00:12:24,580
Nachdem Frau Schmitz lesen gelernt hat, hat sie gleich angefangen, über KZs zu lesen.

113
00:12:24,580 --> 00:12:30,639
Über dem Bett hingen viele kleine Bilder und Zettel.

114
00:12:31,559 --> 00:12:34,419
Ich kniete mich auf das Bett und las.

115
00:12:35,679 --> 00:12:41,519
Es waren Zitate, Gedichte, kleine Meldungen, auch Kochrezepte,

116
00:12:41,519 --> 00:12:48,500
die Hanna notiert oder wie die Bildchen aus Zeitungen und Zeitschriften ausgeschnitten hatte.

117
00:12:49,899 --> 00:12:54,200
Frühling lässt sein blaues Band wieder flattern durch die Lüfte,

118
00:12:54,580 --> 00:13:01,860
Wolkenschatten fliehen über Felder, die Gedichte waren alle voller Naturfreude und Sehnsucht.

119
00:13:02,539 --> 00:13:10,639
Und die Bildchen zeigten frühlingshellen Wald, blumenbunter Wiesen, Herbstlaub und einzelne Bäume,

120
00:13:11,440 --> 00:13:20,139
eine Weide am Bach, einen Kirschbaum mit reifen roten Kirschen, eine herbstlich gelb und orange flammende Kastanie.

121
00:13:20,139 --> 00:13:29,039
Ein Zeitungsfoto zeigte einen älteren und einen jüngeren Mann in dunklen Anzügen,

122
00:13:29,039 --> 00:13:38,500
die einander Hand gaben, und in dem jüngeren, das sich vor dem älteren verbeugte, erkannte ich mich.

123
00:13:40,000 --> 00:13:46,500
Ich war Abiturient und bekam bei der Abiturfeier vom Rektor einen Preis überreicht.

124
00:13:46,500 --> 00:13:51,059
Das war lange, nachdem Hanna die Stadt verlassen hatte.

125
00:13:52,440 --> 00:13:59,720
Hatte sie, die nicht las, die lokale Zeitung, in der das Foto erschienen war, damals abonniert?

126
00:14:00,720 --> 00:14:09,639
Jedenfalls musste sie einigen Aufwand getrieben haben, um von dem Foto zu erfahren und es zu bekommen.

127
00:14:09,639 --> 00:14:14,940
und während des Prozesses hatte sie es gehabt, dabei gehabt.

128
00:14:16,159 --> 00:14:20,200
Ich spürte wieder die Tränen im Brust und Hals.

129
00:14:22,279 --> 00:14:24,379
Sie hat mit ihnen lesen gelernt.

130
00:14:25,720 --> 00:14:28,179
Sie hat sich in der Bibliothek die Bücher geliehen,

131
00:14:28,179 --> 00:14:30,799
die sie auf Kassette gesprochen haben

132
00:14:30,799 --> 00:14:36,879
und Wort um Wort, Satz um Satz verfolgt, was sie gehört hat.

133
00:14:36,879 --> 00:14:49,440
Das Kassettengerät hat das viele Ein- und Ausschalten, Vor- und Zurückspulen nicht lange ausgehalten, ging immer wieder kaputt, musste immer wieder repariert werden.

134
00:14:50,139 --> 00:14:56,500
Und weil es dafür Genehmigungen braucht, habe ich schließlich mitgekriegt, was Frau Schmitz macht.

135
00:14:56,500 --> 00:15:03,000
Sie wollte es zunächst nicht sagen, aber als sie auch zu schreiben begann

136
00:15:03,000 --> 00:15:10,340
und mich um ein Buch mit Schreibschrift bat, hat sie es nicht länger zu verbergen versucht.

137
00:15:12,100 --> 00:15:17,860
Sie war auch einfach stolz, dass sie es geschafft hatte und wollte ihre Freude mitteilen.

138
00:15:19,419 --> 00:15:26,440
Ich hatte, während sie sprach, weiter mit dem Blick auf die Bilder und Zettel gekniet.

139
00:15:26,500 --> 00:15:29,559
und die Tränen niedergekämpft.

140
00:15:30,500 --> 00:15:34,259
Als ich mich umdrehte und aufs Bett setzte, sagte sie,

141
00:15:35,820 --> 00:15:39,620
sie hat so darauf gehofft, dass sie ihr schreiben.

142
00:15:41,200 --> 00:15:43,500
Sie bekam nur von ihnen Post,

143
00:15:43,500 --> 00:15:46,799
und wenn die Post verteilt wurde und sie fragte,

144
00:15:47,220 --> 00:15:52,860
kein Brief für mich, meinte sie mit Brief nicht das Bäckchen,

145
00:15:53,340 --> 00:15:55,279
in dem die Kassetten kamen.

146
00:15:55,279 --> 00:15:58,100
Warum haben sie nie geschrieben?

147
00:15:59,240 --> 00:16:02,200
Ich schwieg wieder.

148
00:16:03,399 --> 00:16:04,659
Ich hätte nicht reden.

149
00:16:05,279 --> 00:16:07,580
Ich hätte nur stammeln und weinen können.

150
00:16:09,360 --> 00:16:14,220
Sie ging zum Regal, griff eine Teedose, setzte sich.

151
00:16:15,879 --> 00:16:17,919
Und Fortsetzung folgt.

152
00:16:25,620 --> 00:16:26,519
Hello everyone.

153
00:16:26,519 --> 00:16:30,639
I'm going to be reading the beginning of a book called Atonement,

154
00:16:30,639 --> 00:16:35,759
which was written by Ian McEwan in 2001

155
00:16:35,759 --> 00:16:40,960
this is one of the best books that I've ever read in English

156
00:16:40,960 --> 00:16:44,460
and he is an author who's still alive

157
00:16:44,460 --> 00:16:49,360
and writing a lot of other books

158
00:16:49,360 --> 00:16:51,940
which are also worth looking at

159
00:16:51,940 --> 00:16:56,840
this book got shortlisted for the Booker Prize in 2001

160
00:16:56,840 --> 00:17:05,720
so it's already over 20 years old but I think it's really very current. It talks

161
00:17:05,720 --> 00:17:12,759
to the human heart and then human experience so I really advise you to try

162
00:17:12,759 --> 00:17:21,019
and read it. All right here we go. The play for which Briony had designed the

163
00:17:21,019 --> 00:17:27,500
posters, programs and tickets, constructed the sales booth out of a folding screen

164
00:17:27,500 --> 00:17:32,640
tipped on its side and lined the collection box in red crepe paper, was

165
00:17:32,640 --> 00:17:38,140
written by her in a two-day tempest of composition causing her to miss a

166
00:17:38,140 --> 00:17:43,960
breakfast and a lunch. When the preparations were complete she had

167
00:17:43,960 --> 00:17:48,660
nothing to do but contemplate her finished draft and wait for the

168
00:17:48,660 --> 00:17:54,420
appearance for her cousins from the distant north. There would be a time for

169
00:17:54,420 --> 00:18:00,119
only one day of rehearsal before her brother arrived. At some moments chilling,

170
00:18:00,119 --> 00:18:06,480
at others desperately sad, the play told a tale of the heart whose message,

171
00:18:06,480 --> 00:18:13,440
conveyed in a rhyming prologue, was that love which did not build a foundation

172
00:18:13,440 --> 00:18:15,359
and good sense, was doomed.

173
00:18:16,720 --> 00:18:20,119
The reckless passion of the heroine, Arabella,

174
00:18:20,579 --> 00:18:23,839
for a wicked foreign count is punished by ill fortune

175
00:18:23,839 --> 00:18:28,039
when she contracts cholera during an impetuous tash

176
00:18:28,039 --> 00:18:30,660
towards a seaside town with her intended.

177
00:18:32,079 --> 00:18:34,660
Deserted by him and nearly everybody else,

178
00:18:34,960 --> 00:18:36,079
bedbound in a garret,

179
00:18:36,619 --> 00:18:39,019
she discovers in herself a sense of humour.

180
00:18:40,119 --> 00:18:42,380
Fortune presents her a second chance

181
00:18:42,380 --> 00:18:44,420
in the form of an impoverished doctor.

182
00:18:45,180 --> 00:18:47,160
In fact, a prince in disguise

183
00:18:47,160 --> 00:18:50,059
who has elected to work among the needy.

184
00:18:51,039 --> 00:18:55,220
Healed by him, Arabella chooses judiciously this time

185
00:18:55,220 --> 00:18:58,819
and is rewarded by reconciliation with her family

186
00:18:58,819 --> 00:19:01,440
and a wedding with the medical prince

187
00:19:01,440 --> 00:19:04,660
on a windy, sunlit day in spring.

188
00:19:05,799 --> 00:19:06,680
That's all.

189
00:19:07,140 --> 00:19:08,400
I hope you liked it.

190
00:19:08,400 --> 00:19:14,279
And I really want to advise you to read this book. Bye bye.

191
00:19:39,720 --> 00:19:43,720
of 27 people. A three-member board was appointed,

192
00:19:43,720 --> 00:19:46,720
proportioned to the number of people involved,

193
00:19:46,720 --> 00:19:48,720
one director for each nine people.

194
00:19:48,720 --> 00:19:51,720
The gathering has already begun half an hour ago.

195
00:19:51,720 --> 00:19:55,720
The hall is small, adorned with tricolored flags,

196
00:19:55,720 --> 00:19:59,720
vests of Tuscany regiments, black galliardettes,

197
00:19:59,720 --> 00:20:02,720
signs pointing to the freedom of the river.

198
00:20:02,720 --> 00:20:07,720
The first lines were reserved for the delegates of the other parties.

199
00:20:07,720 --> 00:20:13,720
They didn't even come. The crowd rose to a few hundred people.

200
00:20:13,720 --> 00:20:20,720
It is already ten o'clock and Mussolini is not seen yet, but the founder cannot miss the appointment.

201
00:20:20,720 --> 00:20:29,720
On the stage, Umberto Pasella, Secretary General of the Movement, dressed in grey, greasy and prosaic,

202
00:20:29,720 --> 00:20:33,519
called to entertain the audience in anticipation of Mussolini,

203
00:20:33,519 --> 00:20:39,720
suddenly passes from the tone of a commercial agent to a more confused one.

204
00:20:39,720 --> 00:20:46,720
He stops, raises his eyes and arms towards the blind mutilated of war Carlo del Croix,

205
00:20:46,720 --> 00:20:52,720
who assists with the accompanying soldier from a boat close to the stage.

206
00:20:52,720 --> 00:20:54,720
Everyone stands up,

207
00:20:54,720 --> 00:21:00,720
The Reduce, to receive the acclamation of the public without losing his balance,

208
00:21:00,720 --> 00:21:03,720
let himself be lifted by the weight of his burden.

209
00:21:03,720 --> 00:21:08,720
In addition to the sight, in fact, he lacks both the arms.

210
00:21:08,720 --> 00:21:15,720
Embracing himself without arms, Delcroix takes the word and swears to the fascist brothers

211
00:21:15,720 --> 00:21:23,619
che i mutilati, con i loro moncherini, sapranno segnare la sentenza di morte di tutti i bigliacchi.

212
00:21:24,119 --> 00:21:26,420
Ovazione. Si risiede.

213
00:21:27,279 --> 00:21:30,859
Poi però, in sala, scatta un'altra acclamazione.

214
00:21:31,460 --> 00:21:34,519
Dal fondo della platea sta entrando Benito Mussolini.

215
00:21:35,319 --> 00:21:38,119
Avanza a grandi passi verso il palco.

216
00:21:38,880 --> 00:21:43,420
Lo segue il capo dei futuristi, Filippo Tommaso Marinetti.

217
00:21:43,420 --> 00:21:50,660
In the head, a bomb. In the room, a singular general cry of

218
00:21:50,660 --> 00:21:57,660
exultation is raised. This too, another of the many inventions of Danunzio adopted by the

219
00:21:57,660 --> 00:22:05,079
fascists. Long live our Duce, pervenito Mussolini, and already, and already, ah, la, la!

220
00:22:05,079 --> 00:22:11,599
Despite the enthusiastic reception, the founder of the fascists appears tired,

221
00:22:11,599 --> 00:22:18,019
mal rasato, indossa una strana tuta bianca piena di macchie di grasso e un buffo berretto con la

222
00:22:18,019 --> 00:22:25,700
visiera da ciclista. Mussolini sale sul palco, sorride benevolo, scherza con quelli delle prime

223
00:22:25,700 --> 00:22:33,440
file, sporge in avanti le labbra come se volesse inviare baci lontani, si dondola sulle gambe,

224
00:22:33,440 --> 00:22:41,000
le mani sui fianchi. E' costretto a chiedere più volte il silenzio con rapidi scatti della mano

225
00:22:41,000 --> 00:22:51,500
protesa poi finalmente parla scusate il ritardo sono appena atterrato sono stato ieri a fiume la

226
00:22:51,500 --> 00:22:59,140
città di miracolo e portento sentendo nominare fiume la città della leggenda d'annunziana la

227
00:22:59,140 --> 00:23:06,259
gerusalemme promessa dal poeta guerriero a tutti i patrioti e avventurieri le poche centinaia di

228
00:23:06,259 --> 00:23:13,759
fascists gathered in the Olimpia theater are chained in a fragrant applause, they all applaud.

229
00:23:13,759 --> 00:23:21,420
If the applause is given, Mussolini tells of having used the block, the governing block, flying at

230
00:23:21,420 --> 00:23:28,779
very high altitude with a war ax, of having spoken for three hours with the announcement of having been

231
00:23:28,779 --> 00:23:35,799
forced on the way back to a land of fortune in the presides of Udine, of having been arrested

232
00:23:35,799 --> 00:23:42,279
by the carabinieri to have retaken the flight. And now, here it is, just mounted by the

233
00:23:42,279 --> 00:23:48,759
carlinga, descended directly from the sky on the stage of this small social theater, on the way

234
00:23:48,759 --> 00:23:57,079
of the cimators. The audience is high. Antonio Scurati, M, the son of the century.

235
00:23:57,079 --> 00:24:03,920
The Way of Talking from Waiariki by Patricia Grace

236
00:24:03,920 --> 00:24:09,359
Rose came back yesterday. We went down to the bus to meet her.

237
00:24:10,200 --> 00:24:11,880
She's just the same as ever, Rose.

238
00:24:12,680 --> 00:24:17,099
Talks all the time flat out and makes us laugh with her way of talking.

239
00:24:17,839 --> 00:24:19,759
On the way home we kept saying,

240
00:24:20,500 --> 00:24:22,480
Hey, Rohe, you're just the same as ever.

241
00:24:23,559 --> 00:24:27,460
It's good having my sister back and knowing she hasn't changed.

242
00:24:27,460 --> 00:24:35,460
Rose is the hard case one in the family, the kamakama one, and the one with the brains.

243
00:24:35,460 --> 00:24:44,460
Last night we stayed up talking till all hours, even Dad and Nanny, who usually go to bed after tea.

244
00:24:44,460 --> 00:24:53,460
Rose made us laugh telling about the people she knows, and taking up Professor This and Professor That from varsity.

245
00:24:53,460 --> 00:24:56,859
Nanny, Mum and I had tears running down from laughing.

246
00:24:57,839 --> 00:25:00,019
It's how Rose would laugh all night.

247
00:25:01,099 --> 00:25:04,140
At last, Nanny got out of her chair and said,

248
00:25:04,960 --> 00:25:06,000
Time for sleeping.

249
00:25:06,740 --> 00:25:08,660
The mad steal the time of the eyes.

250
00:25:09,599 --> 00:25:13,539
That's the lovely way she has of talking, Nanny, when she speaks in English.

251
00:25:14,759 --> 00:25:21,140
So we went to bed and Rose and I kept our mouths going for another hour or so before falling asleep.

252
00:25:21,140 --> 00:25:30,319
This morning I said to Rose that we'd better go and get her measured for the dress app of Mrs. Fraser's

253
00:25:30,319 --> 00:25:37,180
Rose wanted to wait a day or two but I reminded her the wedding was only two weeks away

254
00:25:37,180 --> 00:25:40,440
and that Mrs. Fraser had three frocks to finish

255
00:25:40,440 --> 00:25:43,799
Who's Mrs. Fraser anyway? she asked

256
00:25:43,799 --> 00:25:49,859
Then I remembered Rose hadn't met these neighbours but they'd been in the district a few years

257
00:25:49,859 --> 00:25:52,859
Rose had been away at school.

258
00:25:52,859 --> 00:25:54,859
She's a dressmaker.

259
00:25:54,859 --> 00:25:55,859
I looked for words.

260
00:25:55,859 --> 00:25:57,859
She's nice.

261
00:25:57,859 --> 00:26:00,980
What sort of nice? asked Rose.
