In first part of this reflection on my discovery of the value of charisma and image to consecrate a chief likened Nichi Vendola Berlusconi. In my defense, I must say that such a comparison, I then also heard from sources more (or less) influential as Don Verzè and others. The second part was scheduled for August, but I really frozen because I did not want to do this trick where I allow myself an intellectual comparison of this kind, not in a climate where the newspapers were far more violent approaches, serious and risky (Tarantini, escort, Berlusconi, Vendola, health, cocaine and go innuendo). No, Vendola can not be compared to Berlusconi, even in jest.
Also because my joke would make the list of differences between the two bodies (a macho, gay by the way) and show that the "body" that is the image of Vendola, sweetness, a bit 'dreamy, with earring, with a rhetoric of contempt fine storyteller and a reverence for the power (the only time I really liked the power ... "he once said) had a strong charismatic effect for some people on the left; rhetoric all women, money and power, lifting, and big voice is more suited to attract different people (such as, bho?). Nonsense like this: does a reading of poems and quotes Brecht, the other sings with Apicella.
I wanted to write starting with the similarities: both are Bassini (well, in my opinion is so much mica Vendola Bassino ... ;-)), both want very well to their mother, often they wear the sweater without a shirt, both are perceived as sympathetic. Going deeper, both are set as "media friends", each is perceived as close to its side, call them and Silvio Nichi (Bersani Bondi or barely know how to call the first name). Both have a style.
along the lines of the book of Mark Belpoliti, The Body Cape I wanted to continue the analysis of two-body-image and demonstrate how the body adapts al'immaginario the head of his followers, or, conversely, the followers choose a leader who embodies behavioral archetypes suited to their own imagination (Berlusconi gestures with open arms welcoming all, Vendola uses rested his chin on his hand with air at the same time careful and dreamy). But the effect of charisma is that their followers are not ashamed to tell them "I love you" (or "thank goodness there's S.). Imagine saying "I love you" or to Gasparri D'Alema, would miss our boyfriends (oh well I guess I did not even for Berlusconi but I'm including the possibility).
Since I conceived the piece, however, many things have happened. The body of the leader Berlusconi has been breached by a souvenir of the cathedral of Milan. Vendola was imposed on the Italian political news with a landslide victory in the primaries in Puglia. And maybe now all those reflections are a bit 'outdated. But once again the images of the two bodies at a time of maximum exposure and damage to think about the different characteristics of the characters and their charisma.
Berlusconi after being wounded by the struggles bodyguards and salt on the car with a look of fierce and injured alpha male. Vendola in the first moment of his victory in the primaries responds to the crying journalist who (somehow) manages to interview him, and the boy at his side strokes his shoulder to comfort him with affection. They are almost two mirror images of two highly charismatic characters.
The thing that fascinated me, after discovering the role of charisma, is how this was manifested in ways very different, yet produce very similar effects. What is strange however is that the same thing (charisma) had an equal effect on everyone. I, like many, Berlusconi is more than unpleasant, while Vendola, in turn, despised by many, including former party colleagues. The point however is that I Vendola to "love him" and without ever having exchanged a single word ...
