On Friday, November 13 at 6:00 PM, the "Norma Cossetto" Auditorium of the "G. Gerosa Brichetto" Library will host a new event of Autunno Letterario 2026, the festival now in its seventh edition and promoted by the City of Peschiera Borromeo. The focus of the meeting is the essay "Le donne di Cortina" by Antonella Stelitano and Adriana Balzarini (Minerva Edizioni, 2025), with a preface by Deborah Compagnoni. The book reconstructs the role of female athletes and women at the VII Winter Olympic Games in Cortina in 1956, intertwining sporting events, such as the Olympic oath of Giuliana Chenal Minuzzo, the first woman to pronounce it, with the social context of post-war Italy. The dialogue with the authors is led by Fabio Del Prete, with the special participation of Claudia Giordani, Olympic silver medalist in skiing and CONI executive. Admission is free until capacity is reached.
