Anarchic Morris
For Williams Morris certainly The utopia of  Thomas More was present for his News from Nowhere, a romance of 1891, where he describes a town, for him future, with data 1962, that Morris  saw as a moment of human co-worker and brotherhood that has excluded exploitation of human, as contrary in Great Britain of Morris was normal, and where, with much utopian spirit, every institution was deleted, Parliament was become a merchant and  money was deleted, a concept merely anarchic, worthy of Proudhon who has deleted money with his bank of people, in conformity with title of his book, the episode of pipe that protagonist gets in store is meaningful, a young teen says: “ if you lost this pipe, somebody will find it and will use”, this concept is of Proudhon, in bank of people everybody can gets that is necessary and give other good, it is barter, naturally alone utopic barter, today laughable, but contest when Morris wrote this romance was very dramatic and condition of workers was very wrong, in romance factory aren’t and job is alone a pleasure not certainly a condemn, everybody makes that wants and London is very strange, also for his architecture that in 1962 was become very strange for protagonist, who recognizes something of London in last years of 19th century, but much is very changed. Anyway Morris gets More and he translated him in 19th  century, isn’t socialism but alone a perfect society long from egoism, very utopian!

Morris anarchico
Per William Morris certamente l’Utopia di Tommaso Moro fu ben presente per la stesure del suo Notizie da nessun luogo, del 1891, dove descrive Londra, per lui futura, del 1962 che Morris vide come un momento di umana collaborazione  e fratellanza che aveva escluso lo sfruttamento dell’uomo, contrariamente a quanto avveniva nella Londra di Morris, e dove, con molto spirito utopico, ogni istituzione era stata cancellata, il Parlamento era diventato un mercato e ogni denaro era stato cancellato, un concetto meramente anarchico, degno di Proudhon che cancellò il denaro e creò la banca del popolo, una sua opera , l’episodio della pipa resta esemplare, il protagonista compra una pipa, ma senza pagarla, in un negozio, e una giovanissima fanciulla spiega: “ Se perdesse questa pipa non abbiate paura, perché chi la troverà la potrà usare come voi”, questo concetto è di Proudhon, nella sua immaginaria banca del popolo ognuno prende quanto necessario e dona una altro bene utile a qualcuno, il baratto, naturalmente solo utopico, oggi risibile, ma il contesto lavorativo quando Morris scrisse questo romanzo era davvero drammatico e le condizioni dei lavoratori pessime, nel romanzo le fabbriche non esistono ed il lavoro è solo un piacere e non una condanna, ognuno pratica l’attività che lo soddisfa e Londra resta davvero anomala, anche per l’architettura, che per il 1962 era davvero strana per il protagonista, che riconosce talvolta qualche monumento del suo secolo, il XIX, ma molto è cambiato. Comunque Morris riprende e traduce Moro, ma senza socialismo ma solo una utopica società dove non esiste egoismo, davvero utopico!

Shrowd man

A presumed criminal that was condemned for a crime that he couldn’t make because he wasn’t in the city where this crime was happened, was banned from a city where he lived and in the sentence was wrote: “John will can’t set feet in this city, and he will can’t touch this word  with his person because otherwise this court will condemn him to capital pain”. John for ten years turned around  in the world, and he visited much cities and learned also much language, and he got also three masters, among one in logic, this is that science that teach how to use the logic, and the deduction form some objective date that we consider. When he after ten years turned in that city he went down from air and in airport was controlled his passport, a policeman approached to him but airport is international word, therefore he couldn’t make nothing, and  while John was become a rich business man then he could make very strange action, therefore he on the door of airport he don’t went out, ordered to his wait that called a riding track very next airport, and half hour after a horse man came whit one horse, a black stallion, very beautiful and very speed, he took horse for reins and he leaded horse in airport, the horse was saddled by stable boy and John went in horse, took reins and he went out from airport. In centre of city he looked again building and skyscrapers, garden and much moment of his city that he has forgot, and he was very emotion for these image and for his city that he loved still. But where is very well is also the wrong, and then John meet again major that has banned him from city; during a interviews with televisions major was very busy for to propose his way for crimes and elimination of this very big wrong, then when he review John he took advantage of situation and he run soon forward to John that major has recognized. He set front of horse and looking fixed John he called police and ordered that they set around horse, and with armies. Major then ordered that John was arrested, and John answered: “Ten years ago you have banned me form this city and you have condemned me saying: “You can’t set feet in this city for your life”, and major: “Yes but you are still life”, and John: “Yes but you can’t arrested me because you have said: “You can’t set your feet in this city; in fact I haven’t set feet in this city, but alone my horse, and you haven’t condemned him, but alone me, and I haven’t touched this word with my feet, therefore I can walk”, major with intelligence smiled and went in bar he went out and offered a beer to John and  said: “move ahead on saddle and make me see this city from horse, and soon, because a have a committee of municipality between ten minutes”.                                                                                                                     Alessandro Lusana

Ad liberandam ecclesiam Dei

Frederick was a horseman faithful to emperor Henrik 4th and therefore excommunicated from catholic Church because Henrik 4th of Germany was excommunicated from pope Gregory7th, and Fred was a horseman very next to emperor, or better his bodyguard and personal friend of emperor, therefore very faithful; he at that time was for France and he has been to Paris and other town and cities, he was searching engagement for his job, this is horseman, and therefore in conformity with costume then much pilgrims searching horsemen for defense during their walk for Jerusalem where is holy sepulcher. Therefore among much kilometers that he has walked he, a night at data of 27th November of 1096, arrived to Clermont where was a ecclesiastical council with pope Urban 2th; who at morning 28th  he ordered a pilgrims and he ended this oration: “pro sola devotione, non pro honoris vel pecuniae adeptione, ad liberandam ecclesiam Dei”, in the church where was council much cardinal and priest made cross sign, and somebody, went out from church cried that it is time for to free church of Christ; much faithful around church, listen these words or better this cry, very enthusiastic of this faithful, among was also Fred, that was interested to happened rather religious aim that these words have. In fact he approached to this faithful and asked: “What happen?”, and faithful answered: “I will go to Jerusalem for to free holy sepulcher of Christ and for to expire my sins”, Fed though that should was usually discourse of pope and some fanatic faithful has interpreted very free some words of pope; and in fact so was in history of Middle age. Much priest and cardinal went out from church with cross in front of and much song and holy inns, Fred who was excommunicated made same cross sign, because he was catholic and he was astonish when he saw much persons who follow this procession and much cried that will be go to Jerusalem, and other faithful follow them, therefore also Fed begun followed procession, also because he tough that if it possible a pilgrim they will have need certainly some horseman; this procession turned around village of Clermont and other town next, modest homes of farmer and some little church and other horsemen while were following procession all with same think of Fed but certainly less faith, in fact discourse of pope Urbano 2th: “not for honor or money gain(non pro honoris vel pecuniae adeptione)” these words not were listened from these horsemen. Sometime other voice, toward afternoon, one listened by Fred and other, it was usually a pilgrim and somebody tool around Anatolia and Syria, who very serious situation was, histories very horrible, but war was alone among Muslims and not certainly with Christian, more over were present also epistolae excitatoriae, letters that press for pilgrim and conquer of holy sepulcher, somebody tells that these letters were failed by sky, other from divine messenger, therefore Fred has took one and read it: “Messenger of God has tool that God want it crusade, and this is for free holy sepulcher from Muslim because they are unfaithful”(D.O.M. Deo Optimo Maximo. Missum Domini nostri dixit quod Deus vult quod filii sui captaturus sunt sanctum sepulcrum Christi, quare istum est possessum infidelium), Fred was very grateful because it is words were very good Latin therefore these letters were wrote from ecclesiastic men. But there was who publicized with letters and who with voice and preach, therefore Pietro d’Amiens or Hermit, that has very crowds that follow him who preached in everywhere, and very next Clermont he was when Fred there was. Fred in fact gone next Clermont and there saw a crowd around a man that preached and announced that holy sepulcher one must be free, and he will be go there for a vote made to God, and there he is searching horsemen and warriors of faith for to confront this long and dangerous travel; much persons were pursued by this preach and in fact they were ready for to go, enthusiasm was very big and soul very pride for this mission, they were alone ragamuffins in fact this crusade will be crusade of ragamuffin; Fred anyway listened all preach but he saw that with this crowd very little will be gain, he has a very sense for business, today he would be entrepreneur of successful, but he hasn’t nothing because his emperor was dead and nothing guaranteed a gain, but he, very soon, saw that other knight were present to this preach a Gualtiero called Goodless, and Robert of Normandy who has a fight with his brother, William 2th, after that with father, and Raymond of Toulouse that he has very difficult contest because his nephew Philippa protested every day for right that Raymond has lost and Boemondo d’Altavilla, a Norman who is searching a feud in south Italy but his family was very long from this opinion. Fred started with Goffredo di Buglione from French region of Lorena at late august and he was directed toward Hungary, and after some days they were to Belgrade and after Sophia and Philippopolis and Adriano polis, and armies stood for winter next Constantinople but after this city after a week they arrived to Nicaea, and while sultan Kilij Arslan I was out for other war among Muslims Christian armies went in Nicaea, and Nicaea was conquered, at time of late October and after 7 months siege  also Antiochian was conquered, but alone during November 1099 Christian troop walked toward Jerusalem and at 15th July Christian troop went in Jerusalem.

Fred was in this troop and he saw all and he enjoyed for the conquest, and when he participated to procession for victory, and thank for God with sunset all slept. With sunrise Fred get up and dressed he went to next church, usually, and opened a door he went in a room with person set around a table, he looked these persons and after touched tie: “Good morning, I would explain a plain for investment, because we can invest for bonds that I think, contrary, I am more than sure, we can gain more and have profit for our shareholder, I think that with a plain and collaboration of other business we can get very much gain. Meet arrived to night, and after a fast food in office Fred went out from building; he went in other building and opened door he saw a stone table with horsemen around with armies, swords and armour, he turned toward a big cross he make sign of cross kneel down, with his sword at right hand, after he stood up and turned toward horsemen: “Dominus vobiscum germani mihi, nos simus in isto loco quare Deus vult(Good with you are my brothers, we are in this town because God want it) and I want that somebody show him to other, and in fact first of chef of table said: “My name is Boemondo d’Altavilla, and second Robert of Normandy, and third Gualtiero called Goodless”, Fred therefore: “We are at years of God 1100, and now we are in Jerusalem”, and looked out window and: “We are the history”.

Alexandros

Alexander 6th pope

Accuse

Alexander: (on one’s feet while he looks around): Bono die tibi sit pulchra femina, quod faces in isto loco ameno?

Accuse:(sited)I am accuse and not certainly Latinist, do you have sorry if you must  translate it.

Alexander: Certainly, I am very sorry, I must talk around my pontificate, and I must defender me by accuses and lies of some scribbler , who has wanted defame my memory and my presence, which certainly has gave very bore to much persons, when I become pope; above all for all they who wanted that should I use Church for their interest, as familiarity interest, and I haven’t didn’t it, and then I was attacked alone because from Valencia.

Accuse: And your uncle Callisto III pope was from Valencia and he isn’t attacked so

Alexander:(always on one’s feet) When Callisto III has his papacy, he has pontificated, political contest was very different, and interest were very different, but contest: the pace of Lodi at 1454 has fixed for 44 years peace in Italy, never happened from failed Roman empire, all pope that during that time have pontificated have peace, Pio II pope could wanted a crusade against Muslim because in Italy aren’t dangers, therefore he could looked out Italy, but when I have pontificated Carlo VIII of France he was in Italy and he attacked Rome. Do you know it?

Accuse: Certainly, I know it, it is said from Guicciardini, Italian historical of 16th  

Alexander: Then you know that I have refused to concede Saint Angel castle to Charles, and I have refused crow of king of Italy

Accuse: Certainly, I know it but I know also proof that you have buy votes for your election, I mentioned Guicciardini (she takes some papers). “To Innocenzio pope succeeded Rodrigo Borgia, from Valencia…he bought votes both with money and with promises”, how do you comment Holiness?

Alexander: (While looking Accuse): Do you accuse me for judge of a protestant?

Accuse:(smiling) Protestant Guicciardini? It is you have invented now.

Alexander: Should you have read letters of that historical, you can know that he was employee in Pontifical Chancellery, and he took salary by Catholic church, but while he expressed very wrong judge around clerical. It is alone ingratitude. Neither now neither never I have talked and thought, that in the Church every member are saints: lister, luxury and other certainly was present and will be present always; men are men remember Peter who has disowned Christ three time, and out from Rome when he meets Christ asked: “Quo vadis Domine”, and Christ answered: “Eo iterum crucifigi”, then also apostles and martyrdom failed for wright, but I not, because I have filled my role.      

Accusa: You don’t answer! Why Guicciardini was protestant or heretical?

Alexander: In his letter he said: “Should it was alone my will I would be protestant, but I today have good condition thank to pope and to Catholic church my gain and then my studies and time for my studies”, ille dixit.

 Accuse: very god words but for me incomprehensible because Latin words  

Alexander: So has said Guicciardini, but you don’t say it; you are very shrewd for your accuses, you hade truth and you accept lies   

Accusa: I am accuse.

Alessandro: You are lie, et isto multum diversum est, since that you love Latin I speak in conformity your preference. Anyway don’t force it means that it is very different, I didn’t corrupted nobody for my election to pope; it was costume of cardinals that when they were elected to pope, they must gave every material good, enclosed gain; the pope mustn’t have material good, he must be poor, and I must be poor, then election to papacy is for poor and not richness, the pope must dead without material good, therefore contrary of bliss the pope has alone poorness, and who isn’t pope has richness but pope not, at last I not, but in history pope very unworthy, as Johannes 12th nobody doubts. More over if I talk around kings and imperators, whom today you condemn and predecessor after become saint…  

Accuse:(With irony) An example Holiness, we want alone your words

Alexander: (with tone very hungry) Stop it this irony, you are very pathetic, I prefer false accuses than your useless irony   

Accusa: I want an example that you don’t make

Alexander: Louis 9th saint, very devout to Catholic church, and predecessor of Philip 4th who has robbed the Templar order, and who wanted become member of Templar, he made request but the order refused; Louis was certainly saint, while his descendent, king of France, before defamed memory of a pope and after sacrificed Templar; why don’t you say it? Permasi don’t you know it? You are very ignorant! Then you accused me with your lies that you have took from false historical or alone ingenuous; but when one accuses somebody we must be sure around our accuses, and one mustn’t be ingenuous otherwise one risks believe something that isn’t true, and I could object: “Why these historical sources don’t believe never to that is true and very good around pope or church? They are very ingenuous for to write alone scandals and immoralities; it is means ingenuity very partial, and much interested then unreliable          

Accuse: It’s right! If you are Guicciardini something you talk but other not.  

Alexander: (With angry voice) I don’t lie, and if I must tell truth around church I tell it; for to cure you must know what is illness, that taught Hippocrates, whom you certainly don’t know, because you are very busy to search incest and rob of Alexander 6th Borja, rather read some book of philosophy or human think.   

Accuse: (with irony) I aren’t pope Alexander 6th.

 Alessandro VI:(with determined voice) You are nothing as the accusers! This is the problem; you rise judge when you aren’t neither legal adviser, you aren’t nothing and you don’t know nothing and you repeat alone that you have heard, that is said, you follow wind, that today is toward north and toward heretical, then tomorrow toward Spain which saves the church and then your gain; is your Guicciardini has for e moment thinks to his gain and what he would have lost if this church was become protestant, perhaps he doesn’t aspire to Protestantism, his gain was catholic, and with predominance of protestant a Catholic church wouldn’t be, and he wouldn’t have gain; more over I have interest, and I not deny it, above all familiar, certainly, as other popes, certainly with 4 sons, as Paul 3th Farnese, whom nobody remember as father, but because he was promoter of Trento Council and much artistes, then laudable although very next to women. Paul 3th wanted a council for to order the Church and her morality while he has 4 sons, do you not think that it is very contradictory? Not! Because Paul 3th has very good report with Spain, and with Philip II, then both Farnese and other families, for to avoid that Protestantism in Rome, all were accord to avoid condemn against pope; Ubi major minor cessat, it here means; where is major danger the moral condemn is very negligible.But you won’t understand against.  

Accuse:(with angry) Then make this miracle Holiness, make that I can understand   

Alexander: What? That you don’t know and worse that you won’t know, as accuser you have expressed and you have issued your sentence: guilt! Why? The accused could ask, answer: “Because both Guicciardini and other historical have considered so”, then is very better believe to voice than to look truth; it is better to follow wind than contract it with voice of history, it is better than to look historical contest and to understand that is happened, because following the wind to gain something is possible, and if something we can’t gain then we would say truth, historical truth; therefore if we don’t gain by a part we can gain by other, don’t you think? I think that you have learned very good form your Guicciardini, I desire heresy but while I work with Catholic, compliment for your coherence; enemy is always Alexander 6th Borja, who has always every responsibility, you and other accuser have need of enemy, somebody to fight, who has all wrong, above all if he is emerged by conformism, then nonentity, if somebody emerges is dangerous, Dante is an example and Socrates, genial men.

Accusa: Aristoteles was genial

Alessandro: During other historical contest, Athens was decadent, and conquers were lost, Athens empire was become very little, big war were terminated; Athens hasn’t neither fright and dangerous enemies; everybody admired Miltiades when he won Persian in Marathons battle, but after everybody throwed him when battle was won. Cowardly and ingratitude.        

Accuse: You sons Holiness?

Alexander: What? That true of imaginary?

Accuse: True

Alexander: They were thousands or millions

Accuse: Now you are making irony

Alexander: Not certainly! My sons were thousands or millions, the Catholic were millions then

Accuse: Astute, very astute, I think you natural sons  

Alexander: What? I haven’t neither looked a woman with desire, only reproach that I have was from Pio 2th pope, when I was cardinal, who in a letter reproach me because I was gone to a holyday of my friend, and comedy that has performed were women, and for this motive I have gone to bed late.   

Accuse: I mean Lucretia

Alexander: Caesar and Francis, sons of my parent, my brother duke of Aragon, who when died leaved these sons and I took them, because my nephew, and because I can’t have sons, I was cardinal.

Accuse: A historical whose name is Burcardo…

Alexander: master of ceremonies at court able sale corps of his father, if he has one, rather why do you not interest if Burcardo has a father, this is would be a very good historical search, but I think that you soon will make find Atlantis rather that the father of that nonentity.    

Accuse: Burcardo tells: “You must imagine that pope because pope hasn’t wife, but he has that he has sons and daughter as other popes” then he same tells that other popes have sons.

Alexander: If you want accuse somebody for lie you must tell at last a truth around somebody, so that your lie is credible.

Accuse: It is for incomprehensible, explain it.

Alexander: Around Dante Alighieri you must tell that he was white guelfo as Farinata degli Uberti for to accuse him for heresy, since Farinata was epicurean

Accuse: Farinata was epicurean

Alexander: Certainly but he was also in same part of Dante , that again Florence after exile, therefore all were epicurean, but Dante was very Catholic.

Accuse: Your sons then?

Alexander: My nephew, around them I can talk, of my sons not! Because I haven’t never.

Accuse: Then we can consider conquers of your nephew Caesar, who has stole some region for help of his uncle pope, therefore you, both in Emilia and Latium

Alexander: Certainly, he has conquered or stole, he has killed and betrayed.   

Accuse: Do you admit it?

Alessandro: Deny never.

Accuse: Familiar interest.

Alexander: As much other popes with family and parents

Accuse: Why don’t you condemn them?

Alexander: Why? Somebody condemn Paul 3th pope because his son Pier Luigi has conquered Parma and Piacenza?

Accuse: No certainly.

Alexander: I neither, I am a man of 16th century I can’t condemn political way that I have accepted and knew because very normal at my century; today all condemn the war, but every nation is share of this coalition, if you refuse war, why do you take part? You are always ready for rise as moralist, but after become very pitiless and warriors when somebody wants your; anybody for holy peace but nobody takes arm again war, and alone at some meet much comfortable where nothing is made, but are sufficient some easily solution, much theoretical, at my century one tells very little and one makes much, you don’t work because you haven’t need to work; we must live and survive to policy, much more violent both in political contest and at familiar contest; don’t existed friends or parents, but alone allied, and allied were so and so were till you are useful.              

Accuse: When you aren’t?

Alexander: Then you are accused by much, I have enjoyed little familiar, and little allied, therefore you accused me around all. If I have enjoyed all you would aren’t here  

Accuse: Whit regard to your immorality, the face of Virgin that you have made painted by Pinturicchio, and it is portrait of sister of Paul 3th Farnese pope, your lovers, do you remember it? Do you have painted Virgin with face of mortal woman; some comment?

Alexander: In primis that isn’t face of Isabella Farnese, sister of Paul 3th Farnese, my presumed lovers; I have very much respect for the Virgin for give a face of woman, and if it is true, millions of persons look Universal Judge of Michelangelo, who for Saint Bartholomew he has portraited Pietro Aretino that wrote: “Jesuitical order, sacristan father was involved by luxury very much that he must set cock and balls in holy water”, do you think that it is very opportune for Universal Judge

Accuse: Alone critical say that he is Aretino  

Alexander: And that she is Isabella who has said?

Accuse: Therefore you haven’t lovers, sons, I think that you can elected pope, why don’t you candidate?  

Alexander: I have made it, and I assure that if I rebirth I will make heretical, dolciniano of penetentiam agite, perhaps I would become Muslim, as Immanuel Romano, a poetry and notary of 1300, Hebrew, who at his poetry he tells that he is Hebrew but if Christ promise wine and women he become soon Catholic and pope, and Muslim if Mahomet promises same, therefore I have been pope and now are also tire.

Alexandros

Alessandro VI papa

Accusa

Alessandro:(in piedi mentre si guarda intorno) Bono die tibi sit pulchra femina, quod faces in isto loco ameno?

Accusa:(seduta)Sono solo l’accusa e non una latinista, ti dispiace tradurre quanto ora affermato?

Alessandro: Si mi dispiace, e molto, devo renderti conto del mio pontificato, devo difendermi dalle menzogne di qualche scribacchino, che ha voluto infangare la mia memoria e la mia presenza, che certamente a molti non piacque, sul soglio pontificio; soprattutto per chi voleva che piegassi la Chiesa ad interessi meramente familiari, non lo feci, quindi fui attaccato solo perché valenziano, non solo perché straniero ma anche valenziano.

Accusa: Anche tuo zio Callisto III era spagnolo e valenziano, e non fu attaccato così ferinamente.

Alessandro:(sempre in piedi) Quando Callisto III, mio zio di felice memoria, pontificò, la situazione politica era ben diversa e gli interessi politici erano altri. La pace di Lodi del 1454 aveva sancito per almeno 44 anni la pace in Italia, mai successo dalla fine dell’Impero romano, tutti i papi che hanno pontificato hanno goduto della pace, Pio II voleva una crociata contro i turchi al Santo Sepolcro solo perché in Italia non c’erano pericoli, quindi poté rivolgersi all’esterno, ma quando pontificai io Carlo VIII di Francia era già in Italia e attaccò Roma. Questo lo sai?

Accusa: Certamente che lo solo dice il Guicciardini, storico del Cinquecento italiano.

Alessandro: Allora saprai anche che mi rifiutai di concedere Castel Sant’Angelo a Carlo di Francia, come gli rifiutai anche l’incoronazione a re d’Italia.

Accusa: Certamente lo so ma conosco anche le prove che tu abbia comprato i voti esistono, ti cito il Guicciardini, storico del Cinquecento italiano(prende alcuni fogli): A Innocenzio succedette Roderigo Borgia, di patria valenziano, una delle città regie di Spagna, antico cardinale, e de' maggiori della corte di Roma, ma assunto al pontificato per le discordie che erano tra i cardinali Ascanio Sforza e Giuliano di san Piero a Vincola, ma molto piú perché, con esempio nuovo in quella età, comperò palesemente, parte con danari parte con promesse degli uffici e benefici suoi, che erano amplissimi, molti voti di cardinali: i quali, disprezzatori dell'evangelico ammaestramento, non si vergognorono di vendere la facoltà di trafficare col nome della autorità celeste i sacri tesori, nella piú eccelsa parte del tempio. Come commentate santità?

Alessandro:(Guardano fissamente l’Accusa) Tu mi accusi per le favelle di un protestante?

Accusa:(sorridendo) Protestante Guicciardini? Questa santità l’avete inventata ora.

Alessandro: Se tu leggessi le lettere di quello storico sapresti che lo stesso lavorava per la Cancelleria pontificia, e prendeva lo stipendio da Santa Romana Chiesa, e intanto parlava dei suoi esponenti con disprezzo, questa si chiama ingratitudine. Non dico ne ora e ne mai dissi e, certamente, neanche pensai che nella Chiesa siano tutti santi uomini: lassismo, furti, lussuria ed altro certamente c’erano, ci sono e ci saranno; gli uomini sono uomini, ricordati di Pietro, che tradì e rinnegò Nostro Signore per ben tre volte, e fuori Roma chiese a Cristo “Quo vadis Domine” e Nostro Signore rispose: “Eo iterum crucifigi”, quindi anche gli apostoli e i martiri cedono alla paura e al tradimento, ma io no, e non perché sia perfetto, ma solo perché ho sentito il mio ruolo.

Accusa: Non rispondi! Perché Guicciardini era protestante ovvero eretico?

Alessandro: In una sua lettera costui dice: “Se dipendesse solo dalla mia volontà sarei già luterano e convertito, ma devo ai papi e alla Chiesa il mio guadagno e il mio ozio letterario, loro mi hanno permesso di poter aver tempo per leggere e conoscere”; ille dixit.

Accusa: Belle parole ma incomprensibili perché latine.

Alessandro: Così disse Francesco Guicciardini, ma naturalmente questo tu non lo  dici; sei davvero sagace nelle tue accuse, nascondi la verità e accetti, incondizionatamente, le menzogne.

Accusa: Sono l’accusa.

Alessandro: Sei la menzogna, et isto multum diversum est, dato che ami il latino, ti parlo secondo la tua favella. Comunque non sforzarti significa che questo è molto diverso, io non corruppi nessuno per la mia elezione a papa; era uso dei cardinali eletti al soglio pontificio donare quanto avevano di proprio, comprese le rendite e gli introiti a cui avevano diritto; il papa deve essere spoglio di qualsiasi bene materiale quando viene eletto, deve essere povero, e io dovevo essere povero; l’elezione al soglio non significa ricchezza ma povertà; si deve rinunciare a tutto e morire senza alcun bene materiale, quindi invece della beatitudine si accetta la povertà, chi non è papa gode dei beni, ma i papi, o almeno io, no certamente, che nella storia papi davvero indegni siano stati eletti, come Giovanni XII, nessuno ne dubita, un fedifrago, ladro e vessatore, certamente; ma io non sono Giovanni XII. Se dovessi parlare dei diversi re ed imperatori che oggi condannate e dei predecessori che poi divennero santi…

Accusa:(con voce ironica) Fate un esempio santità, aneliamo alla vostra eminente favella.

Alessandro:(con voce stizzita) Smettila con questa ironia, sei davvero patetica, preferisco accuse anche false che la tua ironia davvero anodina.

Accusa: Voglio un esempio che ti ostini a non presentare.

Alessandro: Luigi IX il santo, devotissimo di Santa Romana Chiesa, fu antenato di quel Filippo IV che derubò i Templari, e che voleva anche essere accolto fra i Templari, ne fece richiesta, ma fu rifiutata; Luigi fu certo santo, mentre il discendente re di Francia, come lui, prima infangò la memoria di un altro papa e poi sacrificò i Templari; come mai questo non lo dici? Non lo sai forse? Pecchi di ignoranza! Quindi accusi me con menzogne tratte da storici compiacenti e falsi ovvero molto ingenui; ma quando si accusa qualcuno si deve essere sicuri di quanto si afferma, e non si può essere ingenui, altrimenti si rischia di credere a quel che non è vero; e potrei anche obbiettare: “Come mai queste fonti storiche non credono mai a quanto si dica di vero e di bello per i papi ovvero per la Chiesa?” Sono tanto ingenui da trascrivere solo gli scandali e le immoralità; mi sembra un’ingenuità molto ricercata, molto parziale, e se è parziale allora resta solo una versione molto interessata, quindi inattendibile.

Accusa: Giusto! Anche tu se fossi al posto di Guicciardini sosterresti alcune tesi mentre altre non le esporresti!

Alessandro:(con tono risentito) Io non mento, e se devo dire la verità sulla Chiesa la dico; per curare devi sapere prima quale sia il male, questo ci insegna Ippocrate, che tu certamente non conosci, troppo impegnata a cercare incesti e furti di Alessandro VI Borgia, piuttosto che leggere qualche riga di storia della filosofia e del pensiero.

Accusa:(con voce ironica) Non sono Alessandro VI papa, ovvero Rodrigo Borgia.

Alessandro:(con voce ferma e risentita) Tu non sei niente come gli accusatori! Questo è il problema; vi ergete a giudici quando non siete neanche legulei, non siete nulla, non sapete nulla e non conoscete nulla, ripetete solo quanto ascoltato, quanto detto, seguite il vento che oggi soffia al nord, quindi verso gli eretici, e domani al sud quando la Spagna salva la Chiesa e quindi i compensi che voi prendete da questa; se il tuo Guicciardini avesse per un istante pensato a quali rendite avrebbe perso se la Chiesa fosse divenuta protestante, forse non avrebbe anelato alla conversione; il suo stipendio era cattolico, e con i protestanti una Chiesa non sarebbe esistita, e lui non avrebbe avuto guadagno; inoltre io ho avuto interessi, e non nego affatto che ne abbia avuti, soprattutto familiari, certamente, come altri papi, magari con quattro figli, come Paolo III Farnese, il cardinal fregnese, che però nessuno ricorda come padre di quattro figli, ma come promotore del Concilio di Trento e di tanti artisti, quindi lodevole, quantunque molto vicino al gentil sesso. Paolo III decretò un Concilio per riordinare la Chiesa nella sua moralità ma intanto fra un’orazione e l’altra ha quattro figli, non ti sembra contraddittorio? No! Perché Paolo III ebbe buoni rapporti con Carlo V di Spagna, e quindi sia i Farnese che altre famiglie, per evitare il protestantesimo in Roma, furono concordi nell’evitare condanne; ubi major minor cessat, che qui significa; dove c’è un pericolo maggiore, come il protestantesimo, la condanna morale diviene davvero trascurabile. Ma tu ti ostini a non capire!  

Accusa:(visibilmente risentita) Allora compi un miracolo santità, fammi capire.

Alessandro: Cosa? Quello che tu non sai e peggio non vuoi sapere, come tutti gli accusatori hai già espresso ed emanato il verdetto; colpevole! Perché? Potrebbe chiedere l’imputato, risposta: “Perché Guicciardini e tanti altri presunti storici, hanno valutato così”; meglio attenersi alle voci di corridoio che guardare la verità; meglio seguire il vento che contrastarlo con la voce della storia, sempre meglio che guardare il contesto storico e capire cosa sia successo; perché seguendo la corrente qualcosa si guadagna, e se non si guadagnasse qualcosa allora diremmo la verità, quella storica; quindi se non guadagnassimo da un lato potremmo sempre guadagnare da un altro, non credi? Credo che tu abbia imparato davvero bene dal tuo amato Guicciardini, aspiro all’eresia ma lavoro per i cattolici, complimenti per la coerenza; ma tanto poi il nemico resta sempre Alessandro VI Borgia, a cui addurre qualsiasi responsabilità, tu come altri accusatori hai bisogno del nemico, qualcuno da accusare, a cui addurre tutto il male ed il peggio, soprattutto se costui sia emerso dalla tetra omologazione umana, ossia dalla nullità; se qualcuno emerge diviene pericoloso, successe con Dante e con Socrate, che furono geniali.

Accusa: Anche Aristotele fu geniale.

Alessandro: In altro contesto storico, Atene era verso la decadenza, e le conquiste erano perdute ovvero solo formali; l’impero atenese era ridotto a poco, e le grandi guerre erano terminate; Atene non aveva né paura né nemici tanto pericolosi; tutti osannarono Milziade quando sconfisse i Persiani a Maratona e poi lo bandirono da Atene quando la battaglia fu vinta. Vili ed irriconoscenti, ma forse potrei dire solo normali ed ingrati esseri umani.

Accusa: I tuoi figli cara santità?

Alessandro: Quali? Quelli veri ovvero quelli immaginari?

Accusa: Quelli veri.

Alessandro: Erano migliaia se non milioni.

Accusa: Ora fai tu ironia.

Alessandro: No certamente! I miei figli erano migliaia e forse milioni, i cattolici erano milioni anche allora.

Accusa: Sagace, davvero sagace, parlo dei tuoi figli naturali.

Alessandro: Quali? Io non ho mai neanche guardato una donna con intenti lascivi, l’unico rimprovero che mi fu mosso, quando ero cardinale, fu da papa Pio II Piccolomini, che in una sua lettera mi redarguiva perché mi ero concesso uno svago in una festa di un mio conoscente, che mi aveva invitato a partecipare ad una celebrazione,  e che per la commedia che venne rappresentata c’erano delle donne che recitavano parti da donne, e per questo andai al giaciglio troppo tardi, davvero demoniaco; dormì con mezz’ora di ritardo.

Accusa: Parlo di Lucrezia…

Alessandro: Cesare e Francesco, figli di un mio parente, mio fratello duca d’Aragona, che morì e lasciò questi figli, e io li accolsi, sia perché miei diretti nipoti e sia perché non potevo avere figli ero cardinale e poi papa.

Accusa: Uno storico di nome Burcardo…

Alessandro: Un cerimoniere di corte capace di vendere il cadavere del padre, sempre che ne avesse uno, piuttosto perché non ti interessi se Burcardo avesse un padre, sarebbe una buona ricerca storica, ma credo che faresti prima a trovare Atlantide piuttosto che il padre di quel nulla.

Accusa: Il Burcardo afferma: “Ben già v'immaginate che quel papa, come papa, non aveva moglie, il che non gì' impedì di avere figliuoli e figliuole al paro di più

altri papi”, quindi anche lui ammette che altri papi ebbero figli.

Alessandro: Se vuoi accusare qualcuno di una menzogna devi dire almeno una verità su qualcun altro, affinché sia comparabile e credibile la menzogna.

Accusa: Questa non la capisco, spiegati.

Alessandro: Di Dante devi dire che era guelfo bianco ovvero ghibellino come Farinata degli Uberti per accusarlo di essere un epicureo ovvero un eretico, dato che Farinata era epicureo e ateo.

Accusa: Ma Farinata era epicureo.

Alessandro: Certamente che lo era, ma era nella medesima fazione di Dante, quella contro Firenze dopo l’esilio, quindi tutti erano epicurei, mentre Dante era convintamente cattolico.

Accusa: I tuoi figli, allora?

Alessandro: I miei nipoti, di quelli posso parlarti, dei miei figli no! Non ne ho mai avuti!

Accusa: Allora possiamo considerare le conquiste di tuo nipote Cesare, sottrasse qualche territorio grazie allo zio papa, ossia tu, in Emilia e nel Lazio.

Alessandro: Certamente che li conquistò ovvero sottrasse, uccise e tradì anche.

Accusa: Lo ammetti allora?

Alessandro: Mai negato.

Accusa: Interessi familiari.

Alessandro: Come molti altri papi con famiglia e parenti.

Accusa: Perché non li condanni?

Alessandro: E perché dovrei farlo? Qualcuno condanna Paolo III Farnese perché il figlio Pier Luigi conquistò Parma o Piacenza?

Accusa: No certamente.

Alessandro: Neanche io; io sono un uomo del XVI secolo, non posso condannare criteri politici che ho conosciuto e accettato perché comuni nel secolo quando sono nato; oggi tutti condannate la guerra qualsiasi essa sia, ma ogni nazione partecipa, se ripudiate la guerra perché partecipate? Tutti pronti per ergervi a primi della classe per il moralismo, ma poi tutto diviene spietatamente bellico e guerresco quando qualcuno vuole il vostro; tutti per la santa pace ma nessuno prende le armi contro la guerra, se non in qualche riunione assai comoda dove si discute tanto ma non si conclude nulla; troppo facile sparlare e proporre soluzioni teoricamente facili, ma solo teoriche; nel mio secolo si diceva molto poco e si faceva molto, voi non fate poiché non avete bisogno di fare, noi dovevamo vivere o sopravvivere nella politica, che era assai più violenta sia nei contesti politici, compresi quelli curiali, sia in quelli familiari; infatti non esistevano amici ovvero parenti, ma solo alleati, e gli alleati erano tali e tali restavano solo fin quando eri utile per qualcosa.

Accusa: E quando non lo eri?

Alessandro: Allora ti accusavano, io ho accontentato pochi familiari, e pochi alleati, quindi tu ora mi accusi di tutto. Se li avessi accontentati tutti o molti tu non saresti qui.  

Accusa: Riguardo alla tua immoralità, il volto della Vergine che facesti dipingere dal Pinturicchio e che ha il volto della sorella del cardinal Farnese, Paolo III, tua amante, lo ricordi? Hai immortalato la Vergine con un volto di donna umana; qualche commento?

Alessandro: In primis quello non era affatto il volto di Isabella Farnese, sorella del cardinale Alessandro Farnese, mia presunta amante; ho troppo rispetto per la Vergine da rappresentarla con un volto di donna, e poi anche se fosse, milioni di persone guardano ogni giorno il sublime Giudizio Universale di Michelangelo, nel San Bartolomeo vi è il ritratto di Pietro Aretino, che sulla sua stele volle riportato: “Qui giace Pietro Aretino, poeta tosco, disse mal d’ognun se non di Cristo, scusandosi col dir: non lo conosco”, in un Giudizio Universale credi che sia consono?

Accusa: Che sia l’Aretino lo dicono i critici.

Alessandro: E che sia Isabella Farnese chi lo ha detto?

Accusa: Quindi vostra santità non ha avuto figli, né amanti, credo che tu possa essere eletto papa un giorno o l’altro, perché non ti candidi?

Alessandro: L’ho già fatto, e ti assicuro che se rinasco voglio fare l’eretico, anzi il dolciniano, quelli del penitentiam agite, anzi forse diventerei mussulmano e sultano  come il poeta Immanuel Romano, notaio della comunità ebraica di Roma durante il 1300, il quale in un suo sonetto confessa di essere ebreo ma se Cristo gli promettesse ricchezza, vino e donne, sarebbe subito cristiano e papa, ovvero mussulmano se Maometto avesse promesso altrettanto. Le pasquinate che venivano affisse durante il pontificato di Pio II contro la Chiesa e i suoi esponenti venivano lette e derise a corte da un papa come Pio II, un momento di ilarità che ci sollevava per un momento dalle responsabilità. Pio II che disse: “Finché ero Enea nessun me conoscea, ma ora che son Pio tutti me chiaman zio”. Scrivi anche questo fra le tue accuse: derisione ovvero diffamazione della Santa Romana Chiesa per troppo riso e per tanta, forse troppa, comprensione dell’umano genere che fu, volente o nolente, mio figlio; l’unico che riconosco.
