History "CINE CLUB SALERNO", a non-profit association of cinematographic culture, was born in 1945 from a group of “friends for the skin,” which had an ambitious program: that of promoting culture through cinema. Thus, in 1946, the 1st NATIONAL EXHIBITION OF CINEMA A PASSO RIDOTTO was born. The Film Festival of Salerno had its first event in 1946, when it happened to be the first festival of the so-called movement of "reduced step," that lowered all 35 mm movies to 16 mm ones, for a more comfortable spreading. That historical edition was attended, among others, by Vittorio De Sica, Rossano Brazzi, Adriana Benetti, Maria Mercader, Mariella Lotti.

Culture In Salerno
Culture () is an umbrella term which encompasses the social behavior, institutions, and norms found in human societies, as well as the knowledge, beliefs, arts, laws, customs, capabilities, and habits of the individuals in these groups.Tylor, Edward. (1871). Primitive Culture. Vol 1. New York: J.P. Putnam's Son Culture is often originated from or attributed to a specific region or location. Humans acquire culture through the learning processes of enculturation and socialization, which is shown by the diversity of cultures across societies.

Thus in military culture, valor is counted a typical be ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
