GUIDA 1986 191 PP. FONDO DI MAGAZZINO: APPUNTO A BIRO (200: NUMERO DI COPIE STOCCATE) AL MARGINE ANGOLARE SUPERIORE ESTERNO DELLA QUARTA DI COPERTINA, SEGNI DEL TEMPO E LEGGERE FIORITURE, COME DA FOTO, VOLUME INTONSO, MAI SFOGLIATO. La storia di Marionette, che passione! è incentrata sull'incontro casuale di tre personaggi, incapaci di dare un senso alla propria esistenza. I tre si riveleranno alla fine non diversi da marionette, esseri totalmente in balia delle proprie passioni. Un'opera drammatica, grottesca, che alcuni definiranno legata al pirandellismo. Secondo Gaetano Savatteri, la grandezza di Rosso di San Secondo venne messa in ombra proprio dalla figura di Pirandello.

Baircelli fu celebre “Medico, chimico e filosofo di fama italiana ed europea, Giulio Cesare Barricelli – – nacque a San Marco dei Cavoti nel 1574 (o 1575) e fu da molti, pure erroneamente, ritenuto originario di Benevento o di San Marco Argentano in Calabria. Erudito e studioso di poliedriche attitudini e capacità, studiò medicina e si interessò di filosofia, tanto che ancora giovanissimo fu autore di commenti alle opere di Platone, mentre nel 1614 pubblicò l’opera in quattro libri De hydronosa natura sive de sudore umani corporis, sulla natura e la terapia della sudorazione umana, nel 1617 scrisse l’Hortulus genialis, edito a Colonia e Ginevra ove raccolse antidoti e sudi sulle intossicazioni, e successivamente diede alle stampe il Thesaurus secretorum, opera in cui sono elencate le cure ed i rimedi per svariate malattie e problematiche quotidiane. Nel 1623 pubblicò poi un trattato sull’uso del siero del latte e del burro come medicamento, intitolato De lactis, seri, butyri facultatibus et usu, e nello stesso anno gli fu conferita la cittadinanza beneventana. Cultore di studi umanistici Barricelli scrisse anche alcuni epigrammi latini e morì in Benevento tra il 1638 ed il 1640?. Caillet, 727 edizione di Ginevra del medesimo anno.
