In fact, the painted votive tablets prove to be an exceptional vector for reproducing and transmitting the values of the community: family, homeland, work, care for animals and the territory, use of means of transport and old and new technologies. In the ex-voto the cycles of life and seasons unfold and the impact on them of small and large natural or social disasters that recur over time with impressive regularity, unfortunately we find ourselves unprepared each time. In dealing with risks and calamities of all kinds, ex-votos women and men look upwards - with great dignity - asking them to survive, persist and replicate themselves as biological entities and cultural entities. The long sequence of events narrated in the ex-votos constitutes a sort of DNA of our nation, indispensable for shaping the country's future. Also for this reason, painted ex-votos must be detected, filed, preserved, protected, valued, studied and brought to the attention of the general public, as this volume proposes.Ex-voto d'Italia Roman Catholicism, Roman Catholic ChurchbicsscPopular culturebicsscPopular beliefs & controversial knowledgebicsscFolklore, myths & legendsbicsscEx-votoSanctuariesBehavioral strategiesIdentificationVotive tabletsBodies in actionRoman Catholicism, Roman Catholic ChurchPopular culturePopular beliefs & controversial knowledgeFolklore, myths & legendsGrimaldi Renatoauth120193BOOK9910548272303321Ex-voto d'Italia3038968UNINA
