The missed appointments and the tears of Niobe: the pain of not occurrence
نویسنده
چکیده
Quando qualcosa lacera il vissuto imponendosi come traumatico, esso espone altresı̀, come il negativo di un’antica foto, una prospettiva invisibile e di difficile comprensione: è il non accadimento di qualcos’altro. E’ l’appuntamento mancato dell’esistenza: ciò che avrebbe potuto verificarsi e non è accaduto. La morte improvvisa della persona cara non scava soltanto solchi profondi nelle pieghe dell’anima, a tratti invalicabili, non getta solo un’ombra acuta sulla via per l’accaduto, non pietrifica soltanto luoghi e battiti del tempo e della speranza, mentre tutto viene avvolto nell’area rarefatta della sospensione perchè impone altresı̀ sequenze invisibili di ciò che non potrà più realizzarsi. E’ allora che compare il dolore del ‘‘non accadimento’’ insidiandosi quale carsica assenza di qualcuno e di qualcosa.
