Dov’è – Bill? Ovvero perdersi e ritrovarsi nella selva, o anche dell’eterno conflitto tra l’io e l’altro

Every day, on a different scale, there are countless terrestrial black holes that we can encounter, with the risk of being, if not fatally, inevitably incorporated, often losing proprioception and sense of time: if nothing manages to escape a celestial black hole, elevated it is the risk of being trapped ‘in the sylvan’, and certainly the ‘horizon of events’ surrounding a human in his black hole is quite disturbing. What this paper tries to show is how much this losing itself is not necessarily negative: this ending up in the sylvan, this black hole where everyone risks ending up, can also be a space in which to feel at home. We can measure the external effects, the consequences ‘in the surroundings’, ‘in the other’, of this ‘being in the sylvan’ of the human. But what does this human feel inside there, in that ‘singularity’, what effect gives that ‘being at the center’ will probably remain – at the end of these pages, for those like us and the reader who are outside – unresolved curiosities. Certainly, we can already underline how much this figure – that of the black hole – suggests to us that there is no ‘we’, at the center of the sylvan: the common is all in that horizon of events that agitates, disturbs or confuses it, more or less close to the center of that dangerous space-time concentration, more or less involved by the influence of the ‘singularity of the savage’. Our journey in this inner space, in the center of the black hole, will mainly look into the specific soul of Gatsu and Beatrix Kiddo, partly also of Bill, wandering in the dark zone of the ‘conflict’, detecting the feeling of ‘anger’, examining the concepts of ‘outrage’ and ‘responsibility’, crossing the desire for ‘revenge’.
