The Bites of Puberty
Presentation of the book I morsi della pubertà, curated by Pamela Pace of the Pollicino Association and the Parent Crisis Center (Camerani Room) and Comic Workshop with Jazz Manciola for Teenagers (Games Room)
During the event, Dr. Pamela Pace and Dr. Pietro Verdelli will present puberty as a truly “biting age,” a transitional period in which the body, emotions, and identity undergo intense, urgent, and sometimes unsettling transformations.
The publication I morsi della pubertà explores the themes of preadolescence and its metamorphoses, questioning what today challenges and shapes girls and boys as they navigate the delicate passage from childhood to adolescence.
The book offers a rich and contemporary reflection, weaving together psychoanalysis, cinema – with a contribution by film director Ivan Cotroneo – and comics, thanks to the work of comic artist Gianluca Jazz Manciola. These different perspectives create a multifaceted picture of the challenges, desires, fears, and developmental drives that characterize this stage of growth, providing tools to better understand what young people experience and what adults are called to listen to.
An authentic dialogue with parents and educators on growth, emotions, and the transformations of adolescence, while young participants will have the opportunity to join a comic workshop led by Jazz Manciola himself: a dual event that brings creativity and reflection together, offering complementary spaces of expression and listening for both youth and adults.
