Equalizzatori spietatissimi
Il terzo capitolo della saga cinematografica dediata al cazzutissimo giustiziere Robert McCall è ambientato ad Altomonte, paesino in provincia di Salerno. Il nostro vi arriva gravemente ferito. Lo cura un anziano e saggio medico che lo rimette in sesto. McCall si affeziona al posto e alla gente che lo abita. Qui potrebbe trovare la pace che anela da tempo. E quando si rende conto che un ambizioso camorrista intende fare di altomonte quel che gli pare e piace, si incazza. E pure di brutto. Con le ovvie conseguenze del caso. The Equalizer 3. Senza tregua è meno movimentato rispetto ai precedenti due capitoli. E più inverosimile, data la facilità con cui il protagonista ammazza tutti i cattivi. Tuttavia la pellicola è gradevole, soprattutto per merito del carismatico Denzel Washington. Il suo personaggio è implacabile ma impassato e disincantato al tempo stesso. Lui non alza la voce: lui fa. A malincuore, perchè a dispetto della sua abilità è stanco della violenza nella quale ha vissuto fino a questo momento. Fra gli altri interpreti tre ve ne vorrei segnalare: il veterano Remo Girone, l'ex bambina prodigio Dakota Fanning e Adolfo Margiotta, ex componente del duo comico Olcese e Margiotta. (Che non mi ha mai fatto ridere, ma questo è un altro discorso).

A selection of photos Izumi-san took while visiting the library of Saint Florian Monastery, a religious complex originally constructed during the ninth century in an Upper Austrian town of the same name. Its library wing wasn't built during the original construction, instead erected shortly after it's Baroque remodeling in the sixteenth century.
It's not far-fetched to infer that Izumi-san used the monastery library as a basis for the Central Library, as many of the architectural features seen in these photos can be seen all over the manga, particularly so in this spread from chapter 8:
Tumblr media
Per the monastery's website:
The Monastery library belongs to the most ancient and most impressive ones in Austria. The gorgeous main hall in late-Baroque impresses by the mighty bookshelves that practically isolate the sphere of the spirit. The colourful ceiling fresco (1747) by Bartolomeo Altomonte (figures) and by Antonio Tassi (architectural painting) shows the marriage of virtue and science under protection of the religion. The Monastery library possesses a total number of 150,000 volumes out of which 108,000 volumes (60,000 titles) date back before 1900. 952 titles (i.e. 1.6 per cent) are incunables. 35,443 volumes (59.2 per cent) originate from the 16th to the 18th century, while 23,493 volumes (39.2 per cent) come from the 19th century. 800 medieval handscripts present the most precious treasure. Four showcases in the main hall contain approx. 50 volumes and 600 sheets of cartography from the 16th to the 20th century. They mostly deal with geography, but also genealogy, heraldic and war history. The exlibris collection comprises 253 sheets. The oldest exlibris pieces originate from the first half of the 16th century. In 1930, the Monastery library bought the literary remains of Rudolf Geyer (1861-1929), a Viennese orientalist. Still 20 years later, this collection was considered the most comprehensive one in Arabic literature between Berlin and Rome. Meanwhile, about a third of Geyer's books is indexed.

25 Most Beautiful Libraries in the World
For travelers who love books and reading, there’s no place more enchanting than a big, beautiful library. Being surrounded by thousands of books is a dream for many, but there are some libraries that take things to the next level with their jaw-dropping interiors. These are the kinds of places that act like shrines to the written word, whether they are steeped in centuries of history or are the cutting edge of modern design.  To help you add to your bucketlist, we’ve compiled this list of the most beautiful libraries in the world, many of which could vie for the title of the world’s best library.
The Library of the Benedictine Monastery in Admont, Austria Admont Abbey Library in Admont, Austria There’s little doubt that one of the best libraries in the world is the glamorous Admont Abbey Library of Austria. Full of exquisite frescoes set within Baroque architecture, you only need to take one look at this library to see what makes it special. Pristinely decorated in white and gold, this Austrian library dates back to 1776, although the monastery itself is considerably older.  Besides its grandeur, Admont Abbey also holds the title of largest monastery library in the world, containing around 70,000 volumes. One detail that’s tough to miss is the series of frescoes by Bartolomeo Altomonte that cover each of the library’s seven cupolas.
Bookshelf inside Peabody Library a research library for John Hopkins University in Baltimore, USA George Peabody Library in Baltimore, Maryland, USA At a glance, one could easily mistake the George Peabody Library of Baltimore, Maryland, for a luxury hotel or venue. That should give you an idea of what kind of glamor we’re talking about with this library at Johns Hopkins University. Gazing up from its elegant marble floor past five tiers of balconies to its expansive skylights, it’s hard to believe this is a research-focused academic library and not something far more extravagant.  Interestingly, this library was funded in 1878 by philanthropist George Peabody as a resource open to the public. Today it houses nearly 300,000 volumes, earning it the nickname of “the Cathedral of Books” in Baltimore.
Library of the Mafra National Palace in Portugal Mafra Palace Library in Mafra, Portugal It seems incredible that the Mafra Palace Library is said to be the highlight of a visit to this Portuguese palace. After all, we’re talking about quite an immense and stately royal palace with centuries of history behind it. But when it houses a Rococo masterpiece like the Mafra Palace Library, with marble floors, an intricate ceiling, and books on ornate shelves lining its 88-meter-long hall, that’s absolutely the case.  The library in Mafra dates from 1755, but the collection spans from the 14th to 19th centuries and even includes some volumes that were added only by special permission from the Pope, due to their “forbidden” nature.
The Long Room in the Old Library at Trinity College Dublin. Trinity College Library in Dublin, Ireland A beautiful library that really needs no introduction is the ever-popular Trinity College Library at the university in Dublin. One of the most famous libraries in the world, Trinity College Library is a classic Dublin tourist attraction, with crowds from all over the world visiting to see the stacked shelves of its iconic Long Room. The most impressive building of the library is the Old Library, where the Long Room is found, which dates back to 1592.  Beyond its gorgeous wooden architecture and arched ceiling, what makes the library so important is its vast collection, including the historic Book of Kells and a copy of the 1916 Proclamation of the Irish Republic, not to mention the incredibly symbolic Brian Boru harp.
Abbey Library Saint Gall in Austria Abbey Library of Saint Gall in St. Gallen, Switzerland Although St. Gallen may not be one of the better-known towns in Switzerland, it hides a pretty major attraction overlooked by many. This underestimated feature is the UNESCO heritage-listed Abbey Library of Saint Gall, a worthy contender for the title of world’s most beautiful library.  The Abbey Library of Saint Gall originated in 719 AD, and among its considerable archives lie thousands of books and manuscripts from the Middle Ages. But it’s really the striking carved woodwork and sublime Rococo ceiling that will make you fall in love with this library. Royal Portuguese Reading Room in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil T photography / shutterstock.com
Royal Portuguese Reading Room in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil Few associate South America with enchanting libraries, and that’s part of what makes the Royal Portuguese Reading Room of Rio such a delightful surprise. Built in 1837 to store the largest collection of Portuguese literature outside of Portugal, it seems to have also adopted the Portuguese love of captivating libraries as well. Step into the main reading room of the Royal Portuguese Cabinet of Reading and you’re sure to be overwhelmed by the dark woodwork and golden detail of its three stories of bookcases, not to mention the chandelier and stained-glass ceiling overhead.
National Library of the Girolamini Oratory in Naples, Italy The National Library of the Girolamini Oratory made headlines in 2013, although not for its rich interior or its status as one of the oldest libraries in Italy. Reports stated that the then-director and accomplices had looted the library, but fortunately most of the missing volumes were recovered following the arrests of the culprits. However, the news did rekindle a well-deserved interest in the 16th-century library. Rooms and halls inside the Biblioteca Girolamini vary in look, from modest rooms completely lined with historic wooden shelves to sublime chambers bearing magnificent fresco ceilings.

Seattle Central Library in Seattle, Washington, USA While there are plenty of historic libraries that are beautiful, it’s possible to find beauty in modern ones as well, as the Seattle Central Library proves. Easily one of the coolest libraries in the world, the Seattle Central Library opened in 2004 in the city’s downtown area with a hyper-modern design. Still eye-catching today, the building is made of steel and glass, with an abstract design that’s just as interesting from the inside as the outside. The diamond-shaped lattice that wraps around its box-like design lets in lots of light, creating an open, fresh, and inviting feel uncommon with most libraries. Interior of new public library in Stuttgart, Germany Sasa Komlen / shutterstock.com
Stuttgart City Library in Stuttgart, Germany It’s difficult to imagine a more bright and contemporary public library than the Stuttgart City Library in Germany. In fact, since reopening in its new location in 2011, it’d be fair to say that this Stuttgart institution is a true contender for the distinction of best public library in the world.  The cube-like exterior of the library has drawn some strong public responses, but few could argue with the gleaming, minimalist main foyer of the library and its large central skylight. Some might even see in the library’s geometric heart a reminiscence of the incredible, dizzyingly patterned stepwells found in India.

... És minha herança, amparo
Rochedo, escudo
Descanso em Teu amor
( Altomonte)
Tudo o que eu preciso é me esconder em Ti,
Tantas dúvidas me rondam,
A minha fé luta contra os meus temores.
Deus eu só posso confiar em Ti,
Assim eu seguirei ❤️

Altomonte, Calabria, Italy
Altomonte is a charming medieval village sitting on a promontory 450 meters above sea level, at the foot of the National Park of Pollino.
The place corresponds to the old village of Balbia, name of Phoenician origin (that means Lord) mentioned by Roman author Pliny, the Elder, when celebrates the goodness of the Balbino wine.
Situated on the hill, the houses seem to be welded to the ground and the rocks, the hills with olive trees, fields and spots are a real timeless spectacle.
Tumblr media
During the medieval period, Altomonte became a fortified center and played a significant role in the defense of the region. Over the centuries, the town developed into a typical Calabrian village, preserving its historical character and traditions.
The heart of Altomonte is its historical centre, characterized by narrow cobbled streets, stone houses, and ancient buildings.
Tumblr media
The many streets and stairways cluster around the center of the village, where the Church of Santa Maria della Consolazione is located. A true Gothic-Angevin art treasure, with a rose window and a very elegant facade, while the bell tower is decorated with a mullioned window.
Adjoining the church is the Dominican Monastery that now houses the Civic Museum, where important works of art are preserved.
The village offers visitors a chance to savor traditional Calabrian cuisine, with a focus on local products such as olive oil, cured meats, and regional wines.

Kapuzinerberg
Auf den Spuren der Geschichte: Der Kapuzinerberg in Salzburg Ein verstecktes Juwel hoch über den Dächern der malerischen Stadt Salzburg ist der Kapuzinerberg. Dieser markante Hügel erhebt sich majestätisch am östlichen Ufer der Salzach und bietet nicht nur atemberaubende Ausblicke, sondern auch eine faszinierende Geschichte. In diesem Blogbeitrag werden wir die Schönheit und die historischen Schätze des Kapuzinerbergs in Salzburg erkunden. Die atemberaubende Kulisse Salzburg, berühmt als die Geburtsstadt von Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, ist nicht nur für ihre musikalische Geschichte bekannt, sondern auch für ihre beeindruckende Architektur und malerische Landschaft. Der Kapuzinerberg, mit einer Höhe von etwa 640 Metern, ist Teil dieses zauberhaften Panoramas. Die steilen Pfade und der dichte Wald bieten Wanderern und Naturliebhabern eine Flucht aus dem Trubel der Stadt und versprechen spektakuläre Ausblicke auf die Altstadt von Salzburg, die Festung Hohensalzburg und die umliegenden Alpen. Geschichte zum Greifen nah Der Kapuzinerberg ist nicht nur ein Ort der natürlichen Schönheit, sondern auch ein Zeuge der Geschichte. Der Name leitet sich von den Kapuzinermönchen ab, die im 16. Jahrhundert in Salzburg ankamen und auf dem Berg ein Kloster errichteten. Ihre Spuren sind noch heute sichtbar, insbesondere in der Kapuzinerklosterkirche, die auf dem Gipfel des Berges thront. Die Kirche beherbergt wertvolle Kunstwerke, Altäre und Fresken, die die Geschichte der Kapuzinermönche und Salzburgs religiöse Entwicklung erzählen. Die Kapuzinerklosterkirche Die Kapuzinerklosterkirche ist ein beeindruckendes Beispiel für barocke Architektur und beherbergt zahlreiche Kunstschätze. Die Deckenfresken, gemalt von Bartolomeo Altomonte, erzählen biblische Geschichten und verleihen der Kirche eine spirituelle Atmosphäre. Die Ruhe und Stille, die in der Kapuzinerklosterkirche herrschen, bieten den Besuchern einen einzigartigen Ort der Kontemplation hoch über den Dächern der Stadt. Panoramablick und Fotomotive Der Aufstieg auf den Kapuzinerberg belohnt nicht nur mit geschichtsträchtigen Stätten, sondern auch mit einem atemberaubenden Panoramablick. Von den verschiedenen Aussichtspunkten aus können Besucher das beeindruckende Stadtbild von Salzburg bewundern, das von den prächtigen Barockgebäuden, den verwinkelten Gassen und den idyllischen Flussufern geprägt ist. Der Kapuzinerberg bietet Fotografen zahlreiche Motive, von denen aus sie die Schönheit der Stadt aus einer einzigartigen Perspektive einfangen können. Ein Ort der Ruhe und Erholung Abseits des touristischen Trubels der Innenstadt bietet der Kapuzinerberg eine Oase der Ruhe. Die gut markierten Wanderwege laden dazu ein, die Natur zu genießen und bei einem gemütlichen Spaziergang den Alltag zu vergessen. Viele Einheimische nutzen diesen Ort, um dem hektischen Stadtleben zu entkommen und inmitten der grünen Hügel zu entspannen. Fazit Der Kapuzinerberg in Salzburg ist mehr als nur ein Aussichtspunkt; er ist ein Ort der Geschichte, Spiritualität und Natur. Von der Kapuzinerklosterkirche bis zu den weitläufigen Wanderwegen bietet dieser Berg den Besuchern ein umfassendes Erlebnis. Wenn Sie Salzburg besuchen, sollten Sie sich die Zeit nehmen, den Kapuzinerberg zu erkunden und die einzigartige Mischung aus Kultur und Natur zu genießen, die dieser Ort zu bieten hat.
