Italian shop-keepers, businessmen and judges are not the only victims of organised crime networks such as Cosa Nostra, the Camorra, the ’Ndrangheta, and the Sacra Corona Unita. Journalists and writers also find themselves in the line of fire as soon as they try to cover the Italian mafia. One of them is Roberto Saviano, author of the book Gomorra, who is forced to live under permanent police protection.In all, some 10 journalists work under police protection. There have been hundreds of cases of threats, anonymous letters, vandalised tyres, and torched cars. Every journalist writing about these criminal groups has been watched at one time or another. Lirio Abbate, 38, correspondent in Palermo, Sicily, for the news agency Ansa, and author of I Complici (The Accomplices), also lives under permanent police protection. This is also the case, since March 2008, for Rosaria Capacchione, a 48-year-old journalist working for more than 20 years for the leading Naples daily Il Mattino, who covers the Camorra and who, like Roberto Saviano, is being hunted by the Casalesi clan. And their work, with all the risks that accompany it, gets no support from Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi. In November 2009, he said he wanted to “strangle” writers and filmmakers who give Italy a bad image by focusing on the mafia.

My name is Daniele Erler, I'm 24 years old and I live near Trento, in northern Italy. I graduated in a secondary school focusing on humanities. At present, I'm a student of Historical and Philogical-Literary Studies at the Liberal-Arts College, in Trento. Or well, this is just my professional status, I hope to be something more. I live for the beauty of culture, I admire every art form. I'm a philanthropist, I love what's born from the human wits and from the soul, even if I'd rather stay alone than lost in the chaos. I love life, history, literature and music. A defect of mine is the big self-esteem, but it's just a shield where my wounds lie behind. I love to think and to read the creative thought and the critical thinking of someone else. I love to stare at the mirror of the past, but also to reason about the present. I think that in my own person cohabit different facets, apparently even contrasting. I don't believe those words are enough to describe me, nor this life was enough for me to know myself wholly. I love to read and to write. Maybe one day I'll be a writer, maybe a journalist, maybe a scriptwriter, maybe an historian. Or I'll be just a dreamer, who had to give up his dreams.
