Il volume propone progetti innovativi, ma realizzabili per Roma e offre un contributo al dibattito architettonico e urbanistico della città. Il ruolo della società delle informazioni nel contesto delle città contemporanea è affrontato insieme a trenta progetti raggruppati attorno a dieci temi forti: le infrastrutture, le nuove istituzioni, la storia, le nuove marginalità, l'ambiente, l'informazione e l'elettronica, lo studio, lo sport e gli spazi ludici, le arti e il cinema, il brand. Sfogliando il libro, il lettore si troverà immerso in un mondo nuovo, stimolante e del tutto possibile: anzi, alcuni dei progetti qui proposti, stanno già vedendo la luce. Oltre a Saggio il libro si deve gli architetti Mammucari, Mastroianni, Mazza e Principia.
UrbanVoids(tm) presenta venti progetti basati sulla combinazione di più attività (commerciali, lavorative, infrastrutturali, residenziali e ambientali), ma ciascuno con una innovativa funzione trainante. Nascono così proposte di hotel per turismo giovanile, case auto costruite con orti urbani, mercati ecologici, spazi per campeggiatori, centri sociali di nuova concezione, edifici per la musica o contro l'emarginazione sociale. La valorizzazione piazze e slarghi degradati, o di vuoti abbandonati e lo studio di nuovi approcci bioclimatici, rappresentano aspetti qualificanti le proposte insieme all'utilizzazione di tecnologie informatiche (da google map a una rete di Blog) La forza di UrbanVoids(tm) non è però nei singoli aspetti, ma nel loro intreccio e sviluppo sinergico; le componenti si integrano, si valorizzano, trovano alimento e forza l'una dall'altra, diffondono una coscienza critica, generano le partnership necessarie a iniziare la realizzazione concreta di alcuni dei progetti proposti
What art is--its very nature--is the subject of this book by one of the most distinguished continental theorists writing today. Informed by the aesthetics of Nelson Goodman and referring to a wide range of cultures, contexts, and media, The Work of Art seeks to discover, explain, and define how art exists and how it works. To this end, Gérard Genette explores the distinction between a work of art's immanence--its physical presence--and transcendence--the experience it induces. That experience may go far beyond the object itself.Genette situates art within the broad realm of human practices, extending from the fine arts of music, painting, sculpture, and literature to humbler but no less fertile fields such as haute couture and the culinary arts. His discussion touches on a rich array of examples and is bolstered by an extensive knowledge of the technology involved in producing and disseminating a work of art, regardless of whether that dissemination is by performance, reproduction, printing, or recording. Moving beyond examples, Genette proposes schemata for thinking about the different manifestations of a work of art. He also addresses the question of the artwork's duration and mutability.
The theme of the conference this year was Critical CALL, drawing inspiration from the work carried out in the broader field of Critical Applied Linguistics. The term ‘critical’ has many possible interpretations, and as Pennycook (2001) outlines, has many concerns. It was from these that we decided on the conference theme, in particular the notion that we should question the assumptions that lie at the basis of our praxis, ideas that have become ‘naturalized’ and are not called into question. Over 200 presentations were delivered in 68 different sessions, both in English and Italian, on topics related specifically to the theme and also more general CALL topics. 94 of these were submitted as extended papers and appear in this volume of proceedings.
Two unaccompanied children travel across the Mediterranean in an overcrowded boat that has been designed to only make it halfway across… A 63-year-old man is woken one morning by border officers ‘acting on a tip-off’ and, despite having paid taxes for 28 years, is suddenly cast into the detention system with no obvious means of escape… An orphan whose entire life has been spent in slavery – first on a Ghanaian farm, then as a victim of trafficking – writes to the Home Office for help, only to be rewarded with a jail sentence and indefinite detention… These are not fictions. Nor are they testimonies from some distant, brutal past, but the frighteningly common experiences of Europe’s new underclass – its refugees. While those with ‘citizenship’ enjoy basic human rights (like the right not to be detained without charge for more than 14 days), people seeking asylum can be suspended for years in Kafka-esque uncertainty. Here, poets and novelists retell the stories of individuals who have direct experience of Britain’s policy of indefinite immigration detention. Presenting their accounts anonymously, as modern day counterparts to the pilgrims’ stories in Chaucer’s Canterbury Tales, this book offers rare, intimate glimpses into otherwise untold suffering.
This volume investigates the ways in which the Catholic Church used cinema as a space for action within the complex dynamics of modern mass society. Within this context it analyses the Catholic Church's Tilm policy illuminating for the Tirst time, by means of a systematic analysis, a vast body of documents preserved at the Vatican Secret Archives and at numerous Italian Catholic archives - some of them indexed and opened to scholars. Amongst them we Tind Archivio Storico dell'Istituto Luigi Sturzo [Historical Archive of the Luigi Sturzo Institute] and the Archivio dell'Istituto per la storia dell'Azione Cattolica e del Movimento Cattolico in Italia Paolo VI [Archive of the Institute for the History of Catholic Action and the Catholic Movement in Italy Paul VI]; other only partially indexed like the Nazareno Taddei Archive or faced with the risk of closure, like the Associazione Cattolica Esercenti Cinema [Catholic Exhibitors' Association] Archive.
An introduction to the sources, methods and theories most used by historians, this book explores the origins of the idea of the 'middle ages' and its development in Renaissance and modern European historical discourse, the problem of periodisation and the principal themes of modern historiography.
