Rome, 21 January (LaPresse) – "The situation for young people today is much more precarious than that of other generations. For many reasons: first of all, they have lived through the Covid period. Then they are confronted with an external society that is perhaps the worst in two thousand years. They have not found anything in this world that could encourage them to enter it. So they have invented their own equation and taken refuge in it. But it doesn't have to be this way; they are the future.‘ So said Roberto Vecchioni in an interview with La Stampa. ’How can we get them out of their shell? They need to draw on the good things we had in the past, which were many, at least until the 20th century, in order to continue humanity. Look, for example, at what the Greeks have passed on to us, the doubts they have left us, from astronomy to literature. They need to ask themselves questions: why do we live? Who are the others? It is important to pay attention to details, to step outside one's own narrow sphere: to stop in front of a painting and try to understand what it conveys, not to turn away after a minute," he added.
