Cancellone houses up for auction- again
Locally known as Cancellone - it is two house and workshops in an area just outside Barga Vecchia near to the schools. The houses have been occupied on and off over the past 20 years (more off than on) and so are in need of renovation.
The workshops too have fallen into disrepair and have been being used as storage space for Opera Barga and for the Comune.Older residents still remember when the area was filled with the sound of hammers and tools working away as one of Barga’s finest artisans had his workshop there.
Gigi Scaldini, now sadly long gone, used to create his objects in copper and brass using the ancient repoussé system - the sheet of copper was laid on a bed of lead as he hammered from the back with a mallet and various different sized punches to obtain his final design.
A series of images from the last beaten copper plate that Gigi ever made can be seen here
A photograph of Gigi in his workshop proudly standing next to two huge vases that he constructed some time in the late 60’s. His skill was in soldering copper and brass together without the distortion and buckling that usually takes place when these two dissimilar metals are joined under intense heat.

- Viviano : Bill Sheets and I reached a stunning conclusion this evening: At approximately $800 billion, the U.S. financial bail-out is equal to the cost of 250 glasses of wine at Aristdemo's Caffe for every man, woman and child on Earth. Bill agreed with me that Marino will need to hire at least one more barista to handle the crowd. We arrived at these figures over a glass of wine, needless to say. But I checked them on my calculator when I got home, and they add up.

- W. Shakespeare : Lear? Not at all! Those words are lifted from Macbeth's soliloquy:"....L ife's but a walking shadow, a poor player That struts and frets his hour upon the stage And then is heard no more: it is a tale Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, Signifying nothing."
- Quentin Compson : Yes, Ma'am. It would be King Lear I believe, an allusion to the fool (and to Lear himself). But there is a more recent connection between Yokapatawpha and the Coldfields with a Biblical reference -- Absalom -- rather than the Shakespearean one to which you allude.
- poetry : Miss Coldfield, considered poetess laureate of Yoknapatawpha County, may simply be quoting Shakespeare, I do believe.
- Quentin Compson : Rosa: Stay in your own novel, please. You have no business in The Sound and the Fury, although I appear in both.
- Quentin Compson : Doggy, May I refer you to three sources on the Action-Theory dialectic? Albert Camus: "To do is to be." Jean-Paul Sartre: "To be is to do." Francis Albert Sinatra; "Do be do be doo." That should answer your question.
- Rosa Coldfield : ... it is a tale Told by and idiot, full of sound and fury, Signifying nothing.
