Following the tenth issue of our first edition, this year’s two-part publication celebrates the 2,800th anniversary of the birth of Napoli, paying tribute to the ancient origins of Parthenope, a city shaped by the fire beneath her feet and the waters that surround her.
This issue continues its journey through the Phlegraean Fields, including the island of Ischia and its close, enduring connection with the San Pedro community in California. Across these pages, landscapes, memories, music, art and people meet in a shared Mediterranean conversation.
We enter the world of “Caldera: Cradle of Fire, Mirror of the World,” a significant exploration of Lino Cannavacciuolo’s forthcoming album and its tribute to Napoli’s volcanic cradle.
Among the protagonists of the following pages is “Pietra Montecorvino:The Voice That Won’t Tame the Volcano,” a portrait of the celebrated singer-songwriter, painter and actress Pietra Montecorvino, whose performances across the Mediterranean and beyond carry waves of artistic influence and creative energy.
In “Patrizio Oliva, the Sparrowhawk of Naples: The Stance of a Lifetime,” we follow the evolution of an Olympic and world boxing champion whose versatility, determination and promise forged the strength to succeed.
We also explore “The Interdimensional Sound of Naples: A Documentary on Paper,” which examines the extraordinary work of award-winning composer, musician, producer and scientist Louis Siciliano, tracing the interconnections between Neapolitan music, culture, people and atmosphere.
Alongside a new saying and proverb, discover the traditional Ischian recipe coniglio all’ischitana, accompanied by an interview with Cenatiempo Vini d’Ischia.
