Fifty years of stories: the interview archive

Twenty-one Italian interviews, with the original English, German and Dutch versions: faces, memories and fifty years of village life in an ordered archive.

Le Esperidi is not just a place: it is the people who chose it, lived it and built it. The interview archive collects the voices of those who have crossed the pinewood over fifty years of history.

From Bettini to Caponnetto

Among the stories are Paolo Bettini and his land, Björn Ninchi and the life choice that brought him here, Massimo Caponnetto and the culture of legality, Giancarlo Tinagli and the pinewood. Alongside them: artisans, scientists, managers, champions and the people who shaped the village day after day.

The languages of the originals

Interviews are published in the language in which the originals were available: Italian, English, German and Dutch. We did not translate what did not exist, and we did not invent new voices.
