Sgarbi for school: launches Goat Diary for students


Sgarbi launches 'Goat Diary' for school students, a weapon to defend themselves, as the noted art historian and TV personality presents it.

Renowned art historian and TV personality Vittorio Sgarbi launches a publishing product for students: the Goat Diary. A school diary for students of all grades, goats or not, filled with artwork, quotes, Sgarbi’s thoughts on school, work and more. The Goat’s Diary is published by Baldini & Castoldi, consists of 400 pages (we imagine it is one of the most full-bodied diaries ever produced!) and has been on sale in bookstores for a few days, at a cost of 16 euros. Inside there are also sixteen goats drawn by Staino.

“School serves to defend us,” Sgarbi said in the video posted on his Facebook page to present the initiative, "because in the world there are dangers and threats, and the more you know and the more you have tools to understand, the more you can defend yourself. But you need a weapon, and the weapon to stop the words, to tell yourself and others what happened is a diary, and I thought of making for school students a weapon in the form of a diary, the Goat Diary. Without obviousness, with many paintings and rare works, and some maxims or phrases of writers, of artists who tell us some useful things, and many maxims or phrases of my own, in which I try to overthrow commonplaces such as banning cell phones in school, a retrograde law proposal, or pointing out that in virtual reality there are goats, or that I work because I believe that work corresponds to life and vitality, while around there are many sleeping dead. In short, a number of considerations, one of which, however, goes to the opposite side, that of teachers, who are both friends and enemies of students: the only hope for a student is to find a good teacher. A good teacher is the first weapon, and in the diary one can write down the things that teacher tells us. Best wishes!"
