ITALY CODE Eat, touch, create: Author of "Explaining you La Dolce Vita" and "The Art Being Whole"

CODICE ITALIAEat, Touch, Createby Simone GiaquintoIn Italy Code, Simo Giaquinto reconstructs Italy's spiritual heart, putting an end to the age-old rift between body and faith. Through a journey spanning history-from the sensuality of Roman rituals to the birth of clerical moralism, and from Renaissance art as a sensual rebellion to *La Dolce Vita* as a liturgy of pleasure-the author rediscovers the authentic face of the sacred: the one that breathes within the flesh. The book is a cultural and spiritual tapestry blending essay, poetry, and historical reflection. Page by page, Giaquinto reveals how Italy-far from being a land of guilt-is a land of reconciliation, where desire becomes prayer and ecstasy a form of knowledge. Written in rich, luminous prose, the text invites us to return to the body as a temple, to pleasure as gratitude, and to art as faith. It is a courageous reflection that restores a forgotten truth to the West: there is no spirit without life, nor any spirituality that denies beauty.
