Women's Day: 3 dialogues in Latina, Genoa and Verona on "The Word and Tales"
Libreria Editrice Vaticana is organising, on the occasion of International Women's Day on 8 March, three public events around the themes of the book "The Word and Tales. 16 women writers read the parables of the Gospels".
Latina, Genoa and Verona are the three new cities that will host three high-profile cultural dialogues with notable Italian women authors on 7 and 8 March.
This is the detailed programme of the public meetings:
Tuesday 7 March at 5pm in Latina at the Bishop's Curia (entrance in Piazza Paolo VI) Carola Susani, writer and editor of the book, will dialogue with Prof. Ilaria Gardin and Prof. Marco Maria Mulattieri; the meeting will be moderated by Prof. Maria Franca Nigro.
On Wednesday 8 March at 5.30 p.m. in the Church of Santi Cosma e Damiano (Piazza di San Cosimo) in Genoa, Mariapia Veladiano, writer, and the journalist Francesca Di Palma will discuss.
Wednesday 8 March at 5.30 pm in Verona there will be a meeting between writer Emanuela Canepa and Msgr. Domenico Pompili, Bishop of Verona. The event will be introduced by Giovanni Marco Castellani, head of the Third Sector and Religious Bodies at Banco BPM, which is promoting the meeting, and moderated by Lorenzo Fazzini, publishing manager of Libreria Editrice Vaticana.
Inspired by famous episodes narrated in the Gospels, such as the prodigal son, the house on the rock, the lost coin, the wise and foolish virgins, the stories of the 16 women writers represent a literary unicum in the Italian publishing scene: believing and non-believing women have agreed to be questioned by the Word of God, re-expressing the various parables of the Gospels in their own unpublished stories.
