Alcune statuette dei famosi negozi di presepi a Napoli
Alcune statuette dei famosi negozi di presepi a Napoli
Alcune statuette dei famosi negozi di presepi a Napoli. Ci stiamo avvicinando al Natale e per questo motivo mi ero tenuto in serbo questa foto, scattata diverso tempo fa ormai, di una delle tante bancarelle della famosa via dei presepi di Napoli (via San Gregorio Armeno). Le famose statuette moderne che rappresentano i personaggi del momento: politici, sportivi, cantanti e personaggi famosi per…

Chaos. Leben. Überleben
Tumblr media
Im Anflug auf Neapel
Neapel – Das pure Leben
Anlässlich des 100. Geburtstages des US-Schauspielers Marlon Brando am 3. April 2024, der als „Don Vito Corleone“ in Francis Ford Coppolas, dreifach mit dem Oscar ausgezeichneten Meisterwerk „The Godfather“ (Der Pate) eine seiner Lebensrollen verkörperte, möchte ich von einer lebendigsten Hauptstädte Europas berichten, die alles andere, nur keine Hauptstadt ist – obwohl, so sicher bin ich mir da gar nicht. Denn in Sachen Lebensfreude, Herzlichkeit und Genuss läuft sie der etwas mehr als zweihundert Kilometer entfernt gelegenen ewigen Stadt Rom zweifellos den Rang ab. Neapel ist Italien, und Italien ist Neapel. 
Tumblr media
Piazza Pignasecca
Ohne Chaos, kein Leben. Seit Jahrhunderten bringen Philosophen die beiden Begriffe in Kongruenz, vielleicht auch nur, um die Unzulänglichkeit menschlichen Strebens in ein beschönigendes Licht zu setzen. Die Begriffsverwandtschaft freilich ist in dieser Stadt mehr als offensichtlich, und kaum dass der Reisende seine ersten, zaghaften Schritte in jene vor Lust und Leidenschaft überbordende Stadt setzt, die seit je her als Synonym südländischer Lebensfreude gilt, ist und bleibt man von ihr gefangen. Und wenn erst die abendlich-goldenen Sonnenstrahlen den Lungomare vor dem Castell Uovo in ein brodelndes, vibrierendes Ganzes verwandeln - längstens dann gleicht er einem, über die schroffen Abhänge des nahegelegenen Vesuvs sich ergießenden Magmastrom. Dann kocht das Temperament des Neapolitaners hoch und eine Urgewalt an Sinnlichkeit erfasst die Stadt zwischen Via Toledo, Via Chiaia und der Spaccanapoli, die wie pulsierende Lebenslinien die Straßen der Innenstadt durchschneiden.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
In den Gassen
Dazwischen jede Menge Gassen und Gässchen, Piazzas und Piazettas, auf denen Kinder spielen, Großmütter vor den Häusern hocken, Vespa-Fahrer hupen, Fußballfans Schlachtengesänge grölen, und Verkehrspolizisten mit ihren Trillerpfeifen den Verkehr zu regeln versuchen. Dann verwandeln sich Gehsteige in Schanigärten, die Kellner hasten pizzabeladen von drinnen nach draußen, von Tisch zu Tisch, Millionen von Jugendlichen nagen einander auf Parkbänken und in Hauseingängen ihre pubertären Gesichter ab, während die Touristen endlose Schlangen vor den Eisdielen bilden, alte Männer säckeweise Muscheln, Gamberetti und anderes Meeresgetier von den Fisch-Ständen nach Hause schleppen, indes die Mamas Wäscheleinen quer über die Gassen ziehen und die Väter die Losstände plündern, um sich ihren Wettverlust gleich darauf in der nächsten Bar schön zu saufen.

Il Cornicello
Napoli for ever! Wer das Leben trinken, dem Tod ein Schnippchen und das Glück lauthals begrüßen will, muss in genau diese Stadt reisen. Und wenn auch nur für ein paar Tage. Die aber, versprochen, haben es in sich! 
Castel Sant‘ Elmo - Von hier aus hat man den besten Überblick über Meer, Vesuv und die unendliche Stadt. Wer’s bequem machen will, der fährt mit der „Funiculare“, der Zahnradbahn, bergaufwärts, hinunter geht es dann über gefühlt tausende Stufen zurück ins Getümmel des Häusermeeres.
Tumblr media
Castel Sant' Elmo
Über die Via Toledo zum Piazza Dante und zur Piazza Pignasecca – Die überfüllte quirlige Straße führt zu zwei der hübschesten Hotspots urbanen Lebens: Lokale, Shops und jede Menge Märkte.
Tumblr media
Capella San Severo
Capella San Severo - Wer ein einzigartiges Kunstwerk innerhalb einer betörend schönen Museums-Kapelle erleben will, der muss hier hin: In der Mitte des Raumes ist das Kunstwerk Giuseppe Sanmartinos „Der verhüllte Jesus“ aufgebaut. Staunen und Wundern!
Tumblr media
Der verhüllte Jesus von Giuseppe Sanmartinos
Via San Gregorio Armeno - Wer Wahnsinn pur erleben will, dem sei das schmale Gässchen anempfohlen: Hier findet man den personifizierten Weihnachtsrausch: Figuren, Puppen, Krippen - chinesisches Fließband und neapolitanisch Handgemachtes. Die satirischen Krippenfiguren huldigen Politikern, Promis, Päpsten und Fußballstars aus aller Welt. 
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Weihnachten im Sommer und dazu Promis, Promis, Promis als Krippeninventar ...
Monastero di Santa Chiara - Eine Insel der Ruhe ist der zauberhafte Kreuzgang des Klosters Santa Chiara. Ein Farbenmeer strahlender Majolika-Kunst, ein gepflegter, südländischer Garten, und zwischendurch huschen Mönche über die Wege: Neapel bietet auch Muße und Ruhe.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Monasterio die Santa Chiara, Majolika und Mönchleins und die Muße der Stadt
Galleria Umberto I - Gleich gegenüber dem ältesten und glänzendsten Theater Italiens, dem „Teatro San Carlo“, befindet sich die mondäne und wohl spektakulärste Shopping-Mall Neapels, die „Galleria Umberto I“. 
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Galleria Umberto I
Castell dell‘ Ovo - Vor dem Lungomare, der prächtigen Flaniermeile Neapels, erhebt sich eine sagenumwobene Tuffstein-Burg, ein wahrer Eye-Catcher, besonders in der blauen Stunde der orangeroten Abendsonnenstrahlen. Das Gebäude sieht aus wie ein Film-Set: Unwirklich, monströs, absichtsvoll. Das Kastell wurde ursprünglich als Überbau einer Kirche errichtet, die auf den Überresten einer Villa des Lukull thronte. Am Verrücktesten aber ist, was sich tief unterhalb befand: Das Ei des Vergil! Es lag in einer Karaffe, die tief im Verlies der Burg in einem kleinen Käfig von der Decke baumelte. Solange das Ei ganz blieb, so die Legende, blieb auch die Stadt unversehrt. Die Neapolitaner glaubten daran, bis heute -  warum auch nicht wir, die hunderttausend Touristen, die abends über den Ufer-Highway spazieren und ihr ‚unversehrtes‘ Leben genießen.
Tumblr media
Castel dell'Ovo
Il Duomo - Auch im prächtigen Dom zu Neapel tut sich Wunderbares: Dreimal pro Jahr wird das Blut des verehrungswürdigen Märtyrers und Stadtheiligen, das in einer silbernen Ampulle im Safe der Kirche lagert, hervorgeholt und zum Hochaltar von „San Gennaro“ getragen. Der Kardinal hält jenes wundertätige Behältnis hoch und vor den staunenden Augen der Gläubigen verflüssigt sich das gestockte Blut des Heiligen. Wenn das geschieht, hat die Stadt nichts zu befürchten. Das Gegenteil könnte verheerend sein: Ein Ausbruch des Vesuvs, ein Krieg, ein Erdbeben. Also geht ein befreiendes Raunen durch die Stadt und die Neapolitaner sind beruhigt - bis zum nächsten Stichtag.
Tumblr media
Il Duomo
Dass das „Blutwunder von St. Gennaro“ längst wissenschaftlich er- und geklärt ist, tut der Gutgläubigkeit des Volkes keinen Abbruch. Hier will man an Wunder erfüllt sehen, ob Eier, Blut oder die kleine, geschwungene Paprikaschote „Cornicello“, die gegen den „bösen Blick“ schützt – im Angesicht des Vesuvs, des ewig drohenden Symbols von Verderben und Untergangs, braucht man Übernatürliches. Und wenn es nichts nützt, schaden tut es gewiss nicht…

Dal 2/12 al 24/12, "senso unico pedonale". Solo a Napoli può accadere, a San Gregorio Armeno, la via dei presepi. Troppi turisti, troppi visitatori. Vietato respirare a bocca aperta, troppo facile ritrovarsi un pastore sulla lingua; vietato grattarsi il culo, non sarebbe il vostro sicuramente; vietato eccitarsi, non ci sarebbe spazio per un'erezione soddisfacente; vietato abbassarsi: letale! Vietato allargare le braccia, potreste ritrovarvi bambini non vostri attaccati alle mani! Pero', quanta bellezza, quanta allegria, quanta storia. Una citta' che ama tutti e ama ancor piu' chi la rispetta. @ilpianistasultetto

It is I! I'm back with another silly ask.
So let's say Italy (both of them) is inviting other nations for the most important part of Italian Christmas celebrations: il cenone di Natale. Which of the bros do you think would personally invite which other nations, and which roles do you think they partake in for the preparations?
Personally, I think that they both start cooking together and both make... A Lot, but then Feli would go off and like. Set the table and clean the rest of the house while Roma does his cooking (he kicked him out of the kitchen because they were bickering again)(it happened to me I swear).
And also which of them gets drunk first?
- greetings from the cat that's currently laying on me preventing me from working.
HI SATURNNN first of all thanks for all the reblogs!! they're hilarious and I love to read your opinions! and now, you asked a very interesting question here ;)
Christmas is like the no.1 italian festivity. A chance for all the family to gather and of course, the infamous dinner and following game of tombola... And the Italy Brothers take it very seriously.
The dinner takes place in Feli's second house in Tuscany, since the house is spacious for all the people they (Veneziano) invite. In particular, Feli is very attached to decorating the house and making it look presentable, since every year he wants to celebrate with all his nation friends lol.
Some days before Christmas, Romano travels up to said house to help his bro organise. And you bet your sweet ass he's gonna take with him ALL the pots and pans he could humanely fit in his (multiple) luggages.
he's very dedicated to the cooking part
and contrary to his brother, Romano doesn't want to invite many people. He often times just wants to have his loved ones around during christmas.
That being said, Spain, Greece (even though he's orthodox he doesn't skip the invitation from his cousins!) and Portugal are his only tolerable ones.
Feli on the other hand just invites a shit ton of people LMAOO he likes to expand the invite to everyone
that is the source of many arguments, with romano claiming he doesn't want any "crucco infame" on Christmas Dinner (you bet he's gonna cook for everyone anyways)
but otherwise there's a lot of screaming in that house anyways during the whole ordeal that is Christmas preparations
Romano basically owns the kitchen. Feli tries to help but he doesn't have time nor the patience to look after SO MUCH STUFF-- HOLY SHIT ROMANO STOP
struffoli, capitone, cotechino, fried baccalà...
feli audibly gasps when romano kills a live capitone in his otherwise immaculate kitchen counter AHAHAH
so he resorts to clean and decorate the rest of his house! he has a lot of vintage decorations that he adores and always puts up
and buy a shit ton of pandoros, like industrial quantity
oh and THE ALCOHOL
God they both bring so much alcohol
Romano has brought with him limoncello, meloncello, and 5 more varieties of amaretti
while Feli has brought from his apartment in milan ALL of his grappa variations
you know they're gonna get shitfaced after the dinner
adding that Romano absolutely wants to make the presepe. with the help of feli, he made some pretty good statuines! (the San Gregorio Armeno tradition is strong)
that's the only moment they actually get along <///3
through sweat and shouts they always gather things up before the 24th morning
the place looks absolutely beautiful...but don't enter the kitchen, it's like a war broke out inside that room
they probably play the sickest games of briscola/scopa the morning of the 24th while waiting for anyone to come
munching on the pandoros that feli bought
"Bastardo! I saw you hiding that sette bello!"
"You're just making up things cause you suck!"
ya in the end they have fun
...probably
(Oh shit, forgot to answer which one would get drunk first. uuuuh probably romano, cause feli is a sponge when it comes to alcohol. true venetian here.)

Places to visit (cultural & historic sites, food, etc.) in Napoli as a tourist?
Hi, Anon 💙 First of all I hope the City treats you right and you have a good time here. I don't know how many days you'll have at your disposal, but if you can spare one (since it's huge and it's not Naples exactly), obviously consider visiting Pompeii. Cultural sites: Cappella di Sansevero, home of Cristo Velato and the National Museum for sure. Around the City there are a bunch of Churches all free and all worth seeing (Duomo, Chiesa del Gesù Nuovo, Chiesa di Santa Patrizia, Chiesa di Santa Chiara*, Basilica Reale in Piazza del Plebiscito, right in front of the Royal Residence). If you're into catacombs, there's Cimitero delle Fontanelle that's worth a visit. All the Castles (Maschio Angioino, Castel dell'Ovo) and the Royal Residence are also open and pretty cheap. If you want a real immersion into the "culture", go to Spaccanapoli and San Gregorio Armeno (the infamous road with all the nativity statues/scenes shops). As for food: pizza obviously. Pizza here is good pretty much everywhere, but if you want to do best one in Naples go to Michele (the pizzeria in "Eat, Pray, Love") (if that one is too crowded as it happens, tourists also favour Sorbillo, there are a few ones around the City). You'll have to taste "pizza al portafoglio" or "pizza fritta" (fried calzone). And consider getting a coffee and a pastry (maybe sfogliatella) at Leopoldo or ice-cream at Mennella (best ice-cream ever). Napoli is huge and the entire historic centre is UNESCO heritage, so there's a lot to see. *this one has a "chiostro" that's beautiful, but you need a ticket. The church itself is always open to visit instead.

The Church of San Gregorio Armeno in Naples was built in 1574-79, but its Baroque decoration was executed from around 1674 to 1687.  The paintings on the walls and in the dome are by Luca Giordano.

Io e nonna abbiamo appena finito di guardare in TV i pastori del presepe che fanno a San Gregorio Armeno dopo aver cantato Tu scendi dalle stelle.
Ecco come sta andando la mia cena della vigilia.

Il bassorilievo della dea Demetra a San Gregorio Armeno a Napoli
Il bassorilievo della dea Demetra a San Gregorio Armeno a Napoli
Il bassorilievo della dea Demetra a San Gregorio Armeno a Napoli. Passeggiando per le bancarelle famose per le statuette e per i presepi ho visto una guida turistica fermarsi in un punto per me insignificante e ho prestato attenzione a cosa descriveva. Ho scoperto solo in quel momento la storia di questa strana figura, molto rovina e antica, ma con un’aura di mistero eccezionale. Poco più in…

Francesca Heart - Eurybia - another excellent New Age of New Age release from Leaving Records
EURYBIA is the second solo album by Italian artist Francesca Heart. The result of a compositional process that began in summer 2020. The work is the product of a series of intimate imaginary projections and aural engagements with a number of geographical sites scattered across the Italian landscape. Places which have resonated with Francesca during various personal travels and pilgrimages, due to their extramundane and often even mystic significance. The most outstanding / iconic being the cloisters and gardens of San Gregorio Armeno’s monastery in Naples and the Nympheum of Villa Giulia in Rome. Indeed the whole record seems to bring the listener constantly together with the overwhelming, tender presence of the surrounding environment. Seemingly permeated with a feeling of refreshing musky moistures or textured with soft, wet soil, EURYBIA reminds us of walking barefoot near the lush architecture of some ancient, overflowing fountain or amidst the continuous flows of shallow rivers’ bedrocks informing the album with strong physical, sensory qualities. Myth, senses, and imagination become anchors of artistic and healing expression as well as forms of romantic escapism from an ever complex world. On the whole, EURYBIA’s seven tracks alternate dense enmeshment of sounds and melodies with sparse, forthright single-instrumental devotional hymns, working as a personal cartography of ephemeral audio monuments to human, transcendental, and mythographic landscapes. Influences connected by means of nuanced ascendance going from classical New Age music and Video Game soundtracks to digital phone ringtones. The fluttering arpeggios used as the main compositional device coalesce together into an experience of relaxing trance which is yet a glaring, audacious work.

Fotogallery - A Napoli la crisi dei Ferragnez finisce nel presepe
Fedez ha la valigia in mano, Chiara Ferragni regge il cartello ‘The End’, immancabile il cellulare, e un pandoro. La storia del loro matrimonio finito finisce sul presepe napoletano. Il maestro prespaio Genny Di Virgilio ha realizzato le loro statuine nella sua bottega in Via San Gregorio Armeno, a Napoli, la “strada dei presepi”. “Mi è dispiaciuto quello che è successo – dice Di Virgilio – ora…
