\nMens sana in corpore sano<\/em> (\u2018a healthy mind in a healthy body\u2019), as the Latin phrase said. Italian sailor and FILA sponsored athlete Giovanni Soldini<\/strong> couldn\u2019t agree more: last May 30 (one month before the beginning of the TRANSPAC ocean race) he launched the Around the Blue<\/strong> online project. A journal, but also a multidisciplinary activity: aroundtheblue.org does not only document a renegade, but is also a tool of knowledge<\/strong> and comprehension.\t\nIt features, among others, a library<\/strong>: aware that the athletic effort is nothing without a proper intellectual training, Soldini and his team suggest a series of books for contemporary sea dogs.\t\n\n\n<\/p>\n

\nSome of the mentioned ones are already classic<\/strong>, like The Tour of the World in 80 Days<\/em> by Jules Verne (1872): the history of British gentleman Phileas Fogg, who bets with his club friends that he would travel the whole planet in just eighty days, is a way to give a new vision of reality, that has faith in scientific progress. Well-known is also Magellano<\/em> by Stefan Zweig (1938), written after a journey in Brazil as the imaginative biography of a conqueror who made history.
\nAnother classic text is Silent Spring<\/em> by Rachel Carson (1962), a milestone in the history of ecologist literature. An observation of pesticides\u2019 effects on plants and animals in New England, that led to radical consequences in real life (the ban on the use of DDT in the US above all).\n\n\n\n<\/p>\n

\nAround the Blue\u2019s library is also made of evoking essays<\/strong> like, for example, Leviathan, or The Whale<\/em> (2013). Starting from anecdotes or fun facts, Philip Hoare reconstructs the ways through which man, in history, built his relationship with whales, seen here as mythological animals: the final result is a love story, a disenchanted text addressing animal-right calls. An even more recent text is Pianeta Oceano<\/em> (\u2018Planet Ocean\u2019), written in 2020 by Mariasole Bianco. Defined an \u2018ocean hero\u2019 by American magazine Origin<\/em> in 2015, the Italian marine biologist describes here a series of events that during the past years became crucial for world seas\u2019 health: along with the stories of people who fight everyday for natural environments, they constitute the portrait of a fragile planet we have to take care of.\n\n<\/p>\n

\nThe complete bibliography is available on www.aroundtheblue.org<\/a>, together with regular updates on Giovanni Soldini\u2019s trips and activities by the sea. \n<\/p>\n\n
