Extractions: When to Go ... ciaodarling.com Dubbed the world's 'living art gallery,' Italy has more culture than you can shake a baton, paintbrush, quill or chisel at. Whether it's a broken pillar rising up through the linoleum floor of a train station or a baroque church overlooking a cracked antique pediment in the forum, history and culture surround you. Outside there are Etruscan tombs, Greek temples, Roman ruins, Moorish architecture and statue-filled baroque fountains to admire; inside, you can swoon to Roman sculptures, Byzantine mosaics, beatific Madonnas from Giotto to Titian, gargantuan baroque tombs and trompe l'oeil ceilings. Writers from Virgil, Ovid, Horace, Livy and Cicero to Dante, Petrarch, Boccaccio, Ficino, Mirandola and Vasari all sprang from Italian loins. The Italians were inovative when it came to music, either, as they invented both the piano and our system of musical notation, as well as producing Monteverdi, Vivaldi, Scarlatti, Verdi, Puccini, Bellini and Rossini. Cinema would not be the same without Italy's Marcello Mastroianni, Anna Magnani, Gina Lollobrigida, Sophia Loren and directors Luchino Visconti, Roberto Rossellini, Frederico Fellini, Michelangelo Antonioni and Bernardo Bertolucci.

http://www.iltaccoditalia.com/cultura/default_en.html

Extractions: powered by FreeFind Once upon a time when the fairy tales were told by the fireplace they were strictly connected with the popular belief in magic and witchcraft. Some religious ceremonies based on pagan rites that are still performed, are a mix of belief and superstition, Christian and pagan elements, archaic and modern ceremonies. The tarantula hypnotic frantic dance supposedly provoked by the bite of a poisonous spider or better by violence and sexual frustration create a particularly involving atmosphere. In fact when the tamburine men play the "pizzica" ( the original version of tarantella) you feel inside yourself the unrestraining need to move and dance with the tarantula dancers.

Passage To Italy - Learn About Italy - Culture
italy is synonymous with culture. In almost every category, italy hasdefined, created, or improved upon the culture of the world.
http://italy.geopassage.com/learn/italy_culture.asp

Extractions: Italy is synonymous with culture. Throughout the millennia Italy has made more contributions to the culture of Western Civilization than any other country in the world. In almost every category, Italy has defined, created, or improved upon the culture of the world. The birthplace of the Renaissance and the beginning of modern western civilization, Italian culture is as tangible and palpable today as it ever has been. Over sixty percent of the world's cultural treasures lie within Italy. One glimpse at her extraordinary heritage explains how: the great artistic masters and masterpieces: Michelangelo, Donatello, Raphael, Leonardo de Vinci, Titian, Tintoretto, Bellini, Botticelli; the musical virtuosos: Vivaldi, Puccini, Stradivari, Pavarotti; the architectural wonders of Florence, Vicenza, and especially Venice; the bounteous foods and wines: Chianti, Valpollicella, pasta, pizza; the modern fashions and styles of Armani, Gucci, and Ferrari. Whether yesterday or today Italy has it all, and always has. No where else in the world can be found the extraordinary richness and grandeur of the Italian culture. Yet inextricably intertwined with the highest of high culture is a uniquely Italian enjoyment of "la dolce vita" and an unparalleled love for the experience of life. The Italian way is one of quality, enjoying the joy of life, the beauty, the splendor, and the magic. This magnificent quality is reflected throughout its wonderful artistic heritage and never fails to infuse the visitor with its seductive essence. Italian culture has improved the world perhaps more than any other.
