Europe pays tribute to Pavarotti

Edmondo Berselli contemplates the life of the tenor. "It is Pavarotti's spectacular disproportion that strikes us. Facing the echo of his death resounding all round the planet, it is clear that we are not celebrating an artist as much as the most famous Italian in the world. This disproportion lies in the meaning of his life, which was a daily demonstration of how an Italian from one of the most anonymous provinces was thrust into the limelight of the global show. ... He was a perfect 'glocal' icon, a media synthesis of the global and the local, thrown onto the market and before a limitless audience without nationality or taste, a multinational incarnated in a large and fragile body. ... If he had listened to the critics, maybe 'Big Luciano' could have been better, maybe even the best of all times. However, in an over-hyped era of surplus media, he was contented, in all modesty, to become colossal, contented to simply be big."
