Sicily ‘s Amazing Video

#Vimeo #Sicily

Sicily, the largest island in the Mediterranean, is one of the most bewitching destinations in Europe. Despite its distinctive triangular shape, though, it suffers from an image problem. During the 19th century it was a feudal wilderness of peasants and lawless banditry. Giuseppe Tomasi di Lampedusa’s exquisite novel, The Leopard, published posthumously in 1958, characterised it as a melancholy place of faded grandeur and decay.

Situated smack in the middle of the Mediterranean, in between Christian Europe and Islamic Africa, and blessed with Mount Etna’s fertile volcanic soils, Sicily has always been an irresistible destination for conquerors and settlers, from the Phoenician merchants who migrated there from the 10th century BC onwards, to today’s desperate refugees, who risk death to travel to the island on overcrowded boats from Libya.

The exhibition at the British Museum, boasting more than 200 objects, focuses on two distinct peoples from this long procession of ethnicity: the ancient Greeks and the Normans. Each presided over glory years for Sicily, separated by 13 centuries. The Greeks began to settle on Sicily towards the end of the eighth century BC. They were led by aristocratic adventurers who set forth from the city-states of their homeland to establish independent communities known as colonies.

Sicily has started to get its act together once more. Sure, the Mafia still exists, as does a sometimes infuriating bureaucracy. But it would be an unfortunate visitor that had much to do with either. What you are much more likely to encounter are: a new breed of boutique hotels the equal of anything in Tuscany; passionately-run private tour companies like Passage to Sicily or Etna Finder that bring guidebook sights to vivid life; a wine scene that is currently among the most interesting in Italy; and a range of restaurants, from Michelin-starred temples to hip organic cafes...

A network of volunteers in Sicily, one of the frontlines of Europe’s migration crisis, has come up with a hands-on approach to help the record number of teenage migrants and refugees who have been arriving on the island without an adult guardian.
