| Do you want to learn about Greece? So
come to Sicily. It is a paradox, for sure, but only to a certain extent. The Greek cities
of Sicily (Agrigento, Selinunte, Segesta, Syracuse, to mention the most
important) were among the most beautiful of the Hellenic world. Nowadays, to visit the
Valley of Temples at Agrigento or to watch a summer performance in the great Greek
Theatre of Syracuse is to plunge yourself into the remote Hellenic past. And this
is also true in Sicily for many other historical eras and civilisations, from the Spanish
to the French. With the sole exception of Arab rule, which has left scarce physical
testimony. Sicily is a book of history and art history, a compendium of the greatest
civilisations and cultures of all time. A sunny island whose landscape is rich in
contrasts, with a splendid coastline and a refined, delicious and varied cuisine of
traditional flavours and exquisite aromas: the quintessence of Mediterranean culture, yet
also dense with intellectual complexity and refinement, so well represented by the
literary masterpieces of Luigi Pirandello, Giuseppe Tomasi di Lampedusa, Leonardo
Sciascia, Gesualdo Bufalino and today, Andrea Camilleri.Every style, every movement in art
is richly represented in Sicily. In cities like Palermo, Catania, Caltanissetta,
Enna, Syracuse, Ragusa, Trapani, Agrigento, and Messina. And in small towns, like
Cefalù, clustered around its Norman cathedral, or Noto,
with its extraordinary Baroque cathedral, or Taormina, with its splendid Greco-Roman
theatre. (content taken from ENIT ) |
