Pier Paolo Pasolini, the second Italian neorealism
Pier Paolo Pasolini was born in Bologna in 1922. He began writing his first poems when he was 7, inspired by the beauty of Casarsa, the town where he lived at that age. The symbolist Rimbaud was perhaps one of his early influences. Due to the fact that he devoted his life to literature, journalism and filmmaking, Pasolini was a difficult-to-catalog, as well as too versatile artist. In his life, he was involved with the Communist Party, despite disagreements with its various factions; he compared the official Marxism with Catholicism, calling them the “two churches.” No doubt his political ideals, his intellectual stereotype of anti-consumerist and anti-clerical, together with his extremely high subversive potential and his open homosexuality linked with certain minor scandals, had led many detractors and enemies. In 1943 he is called to the army. In 1945, his brother Guido, with whom he had a very strong bond, is murdered by anti-fascists. This murder is used to put him on the cover of certain newspapers, which rapidly spread the news: the brother of a communist assassinated by Communists. After a few minor scandals, Pasolini with his mother left the region of Friuli to travel to Rome. His first years there were hardness, poor and loneliness. Among his writings in poetry stands out, “Gramsci´s Ashes”, “The religion of my time,” “The Nightingale of the Catholic Church”, “Poetry as a Rose.” In rehearsal, “Teorema”, “Passion and Ideology”, “About the dialectical poetry.” And among his novels “A violent life”, “Women in Rome”, “Orgy”, “Calderón” and “Boys in the street.” He started being a film director and screenwriter in 1961 with...Alexander Platz Club Rome
