"The volume explains, in a rich and detailed way, the transformation of Barbie ... into Caterina de' Medici by means of the wedding dress she wore when she married Enrico di Valois on October 27, 1533. The dress was recently recreated in both life-size and a scale model ... with extraordinary accuracy and couture skill; it was then presented on January 18th, 2008 at Palazzo Medici Riccardi on the occasion of the event "Pitti Bimbo." The volume comes complete with a large introduction on the symbolism of Barbie, the history of Palazzo Medici Riccardi and the figure of Caterina de' Medici, court life and other curiosities such as beauty treatments used during the Renaissance."--Taken from Publisher's website.

Caterina de’ Medici è una tra le figure femminili più note della storia. Figlia di Lorenzo de’ Medici duca d’Urbino, fu la prima italiana a sedere sul trono di Francia. Il libro ripercorre le tappe principali della sua esistenza, a partire da prima della sua nascita: dalle origini fiorentine all’infanzia trascorsa tra Firenze e Roma, fino alla lunga e definitiva fase francese. Trapiantata oltralpe giovanissima, Caterina si trovò immessa a forza in un contesto profondamente diverso da quello della sua città di origine, che fin da subito la percepì come un’estranea e come tale a lungo la considerò. Chiamata, per circostanze inattese, a regnare prima come consorte poi come reggente in nome dei figli minorenni, Caterina fronteggiò per decenni un tragico conflitto religioso sul suolo nazionale. Nell’assicurare alla Francia una duratura continuità di governo, la sua crescita personale e la sua politica di mediazioni e risoluzioni andarono di pari passo con l’emergere di quel personaggio oscuro e volitivo che spesso si sovrappose alla persona, e che finì per determinare, almeno storiograficamente, la fortuna di entrambi.

The lack of solutions for the complexities of the modern world, such as environmental issues, cultural clashes, ideological warfare and the breakdown of cultures, indicates that we might have touched upon the limits of the rationally and positively driven practice of the Western world. The authors of the volume believe that the design thinking, where action and thinking are combined, could take the lead in developing a new approach to these global problems. Sharing the language of making might break down barriers between people, ideologies and communities, while at the same time preserving diversity. The proposed project is indeed a first step towards this ambitious program: this book proposes to use the power of making, conjugated with local design culture, to pave the way for a new way of communicating and a new way of thinking.

Ten grids that changed the world: the emergence and evolution of the most prominent visual structure in Western culture. Emblematic of modernity, the grid is the underlying form of everything from skyscrapers and office cubicles to paintings by Mondrian and a piece of computer code. And yet, as Hannah Higgins makes clear in this engaging and evocative book, the grid has a history that long predates modernity; it is the most prominent visual structure in Western culture. In The Grid Book, Higgins examines the history of ten grids that changed the world: the brick, the tablet, the gridiron city plan, the map, musical notation, the ledger, the screen, moveable type, the manufactured box, and the net. Charting the evolution of each grid, from the Paleolithic brick of ancient Mesopotamia through the virtual connections of the Internet, Higgins demonstrates that once a grid is invented, it may bend, crumble, or shatter, but its organizing principle never disappears. The appearance of each grid was a watershed event. Brick, tablet, and city gridiron made possible sturdy housing, the standardization of language, and urban development. Maps, musical notation, financial ledgers, and moveable type promoted the organization of space, music, and time, international trade, and mass literacy. The screen of perspective painting heralded the science of the modern period, classical mechanics, and the screen arts, while the standardization of space made possible by the manufactured box suggested the purified box forms of industrial architecture and visual art. The net, the most ancient grid, made its first appearance in Stone Age Finland; today, the loose but clearly articulated networks of the World Wide Web suggest that we are in the middle of an emergent grid that is reshaping the world, as grids do, in its image.

#1 New York Times bestselling author Jennifer L. Armentrout returns with book one of the all-new, compelling Flesh and Fire series—set in the beloved Blood and Ash world. Born shrouded in the veil of the Primals, a Maiden as the Fates promised, Seraphena Mierel’s future has never been hers. Chosen before birth to uphold the desperate deal her ancestor struck to save his people, Sera must leave behind her life and offer herself to the Primal of Death as his Consort. However, Sera’s real destiny is the most closely guarded secret in all of Lasania—she’s not the well protected Maiden but an assassin with one mission—one target. Make the Primal of Death fall in love, become his weakness, and then…end him. If she fails, she dooms her kingdom to a slow demise at the hands of the Rot. Sera has always known what she is. Chosen. Consort. Assassin. Weapon. A specter never fully formed yet drenched in blood. A monster. Until him. Until the Primal of Death’s unexpected words and deeds chase away the darkness gathering inside her. And his seductive touch ignites a passion she’s never allowed herself to feel and cannot feel for him. But Sera has never had a choice. Either way, her life is forfeit—it always has been, as she has been forever touched by Life and Death.
