In the lush greenery of San Giovanni Park, against the backdrop of blooming roses, the 13th edition of the Rose Libri Musica Vino cultural festival is set to captivate audiences once again. Organized by the Agricultural Social Cooperative Monte San Pantaleone in collaboration with the University of Trieste, this annual event promises a rich tapestry of nature, history, literature, and theater.
This year, the festival unveils a compelling addition: the “Cent’anni dell’Università in scena” section, commemorating the Centenary of the University of Trieste and the legacy of Franco Basaglia, a pivotal figure in Italian psychiatry. Through a series of theatrical performances, each Friday in May will showcase the remarkable individuals who have shaped the university’s distinguished history.
Against the verdant backdrop, attendees will embark on psychiatric walks, engage in literary discussions, and indulge in wine tastings featuring the rebellious wines beloved by Basaglia himself. From soulful brass band melodies to thought-provoking theatrical renditions, the festival promises a sensorial journey through time and culture.
Among the highlights are tributes to influential figures such as Gaetano Kanizsa, Paolo Budinich, Gillo Dorfles, and Margherita Hack, whose contributions to academia, art, and science have left an indelible mark on Trieste and beyond. These luminaries will be celebrated through immersive theatrical performances that offer glimpses into their groundbreaking work and enduring legacies.
With its blend of intellectual discourse, artistic expression, and sensory delights, Rose Libri Musica Vino stands as a testament to the enduring spirit of cultural celebration. As attendees gather amidst the fragrant blooms and historic ambience, they are invited to immerse themselves in a world where nature, history, and creativity converge, reaffirming the power of communal connection and collective appreciation for the human experience.
