La fantascienza ha cambiato il mondo. A partire dalla fine dell’Ottocento, quando i primi scrittori hanno cominciato a immaginare un futuro dominato dalla macchina, dalle scoperte scientifiche, da vettori capaci di vincere la gravità e viaggiare nello spazio, questa narrativa ha contribuito a costruire il futuro dell’uomo nell’era della tecnica, anticipando invenzioni, scoperte, e mettendo in guardia contro i rischi della meccanizzazione. Ma anche la fantascienza è cambiata. Si è fatta adulta: dai “pulp magazine” da pochi centesimi, attraverso la narrativa d’intrattenimento è approdata alla “Letteratura ufficiale”, quella con la “L” maiuscola, entrando a pieno titolo nelle scuole, nelle università, nelle biblioteche e nelle cineteche; rappresentando, al pari di altre opere della creatività, l’intuizione e la complessità del pensiero umano. Oggi la fantascienza non è solo divertimento, ma anche occasione di conoscenza, critica sociale, riflessione sul futuro dell’uomo. Per avvicinarci a questa innovativa opportunità di “vedere” la realtà con occhi nuovi, consapevoli della sua rilevanza, è necessario andare alle sue radici, non tanto scrivendone la storia, quanto presentandone i temi fondamentali e i luoghi topici sui quali si sono esercitati gli scrittori di fantascienza fino a oggi. Ogni “voce” è autoconclusiva e si legge come un racconto a se stante, aprendo, nel collegamento con altri lemmi, una rete del sapere e dell’immaginario, con un effetto di rimandi e citazioni che incuriosisce e sorprende. A questo volume si è dedicato un gruppo di critici e studiosi, tra i maggiori esperti del settore, raccolti attorno alla rivista IF (Insolito e Fantastico) e coordinati da Carlo Bordoni. Testi di: Claudio Asciuti Carlo Bordoni Domenico Gallo Riccardo Gramantieri Giuseppe Panella Gian Filippo Pizzo. Una summa ragionata che non ha precedenti in Italia Un’enciclopedia tematica per lemmi dall’Ottocento a oggi Una raccolta degli autori più significativi di sempre Una guida agli autori italiani Curiosità, approfondimenti, incursioni nel cinema e altri media

Un nuovo avvincente capitolo della serie Covert-One, l'agenzia segreta di controspionaggio che risponde direttamente al Presidente degli Stati Uniti. In New Mexico, fuori dal Teller Institute, è in corso una manifestazione di protesta contro i nanofagi, l'ultimo ritrovato della biotecnologia che potrebbe essere in grado di distruggere il cancro, ma anche di annientare una vita umana in pochi istanti.Un gruppo di presunti agenti del Servizio segreto presidenziale fa sgomberare il laboratorio e, quando il corteo riesce a penetrare, un'esplosione uccide migliaia di manifestanti. Le immagini della tragedia fanno il giro del mondo; la CIA e l'FBI sono nell'occhio del ciclone e il potente e ambiguo movimento ambientalista Lazarus è ai vertici della popolarità.Solo Jon Smith, agente speciale della Covert-One, può far luce sulla reale natura di Lazarus e sui suoi intenti. Robert Ludlum esplora, attraverso le sue fulminanti invenzioni, il tema controverso del progresso tecnologico e delle sue aberrazioni.

Bridging the fields of conservation, art history, and museum curating, this volume contains the principal papers from an international symposium titled "Historical Painting Techniques, Materials, and Studio Practice" at the University of Leiden in Amsterdam, Netherlands, from June 26 to 29, 1995. The symposium—designed for art historians, conservators, conservation scientists, and museum curators worldwide—was organized by the Department of Art History at the University of Leiden and the Art History Department of the Central Research Laboratory for Objects of Art and Science in Amsterdam. Twenty-five contributors representing museums and conservation institutions throughout the world provide recent research on historical painting techniques, including wall painting and polychrome sculpture. Topics cover the latest art historical research and scientific analyses of original techniques and materials, as well as historical sources, such as medieval treatises and descriptions of painting techniques in historical literature. Chapters include the painting methods of Rembrandt and Vermeer, Dutch 17th-century landscape painting, wall paintings in English churches, Chinese paintings on paper and canvas, and Tibetan thangkas. Color plates and black-and-white photographs illustrate works from the Middle Ages to the 20th century.

Fantascienza - romanzo (168 pagine) - Ritorna il romanzo vincitore del Premio Urania 2009 "Lazarus" di Alberto Cola. Un confronto spietato tra il Giappone moderno – e futuro – e il Giappone ideale della tradizione. Il 25 novembre 1970, dopo aver occupato il Ministero della Difesa giapponese, lo scrittore, drammaturgo e attivista politico Yukio Mishima si toglieva la vita tramite il tradizionale seppuku, trafiggendosi il ventre e facendosi tagliare la testa. Ma la sua vicenda non era destinata a finire quel giorno. In una Tokyo futura, dominata dalla yakuza e dalle multinazionali, il mistico telepate Gabriel viene incaricato di trovare il redivivo Mishima, fatto rinascere da una corporation per utilizzarlo per i propri fini e poi fuggito. Un confronto spietato tra il Giappone moderno – e futuro – e il Giappone ideale della tradizione. Un viaggio tra la spiritualità orientale e il materialismo esportato dall'Occidente. Un romanzo di grande spessore culturale e artistico che nel 2009 è valso all'autore il Premio Urania. Alberto Cola lavora e vive nelle Marche.

The present work, it is hoped, will supply a want long felt in the literature of the Catacombs. That literature, it is true, is very voluminous; but it is for the most part locked up in rare and costly folios in foreign languages, and inaccessible to the general reader. Recent discoveries have refuted some of the theories and corrected many of the statements of previous books in English on this subject; and the present volume is the only one in which the latest results of exploration are fully given, and interpreted from a Protestant point of view. The writer has endeavored to illustrate the subject by frequent pagan sepulchral inscriptions, and by citations from the writings of the Fathers, which often throw much light on the condition of early Christian society. The value of the work is greatly enhanced, it is thought, by the addition of many hundreds of early Christian inscriptions carefully translated, a very large proportion of which have never before appeared in English. Those only who have given some attention to epigraphical studies can conceive the difficulty of this part of the work. The defacements of time, and frequently the original imperfection of the inscriptions and the ignorance of their writers, demand the utmost carefulness to avoid errors of interpretation. The writer has been fortunate in being assisted by the veteran scholarship of the Rev. Dr. McCaul, well known in both Europe and America as one of the highest living authorities in epigraphical science, under whose critical revision most of the translations have passed. Through the enterprise of the publishers this work is more copiously illustrated, from original and other sources, than any other work on the subject in the language; thus giving more correct and vivid impressions of the unfamiliar scenes and objects delineated than is possible by any mere verbal description. References are given, in the foot-notes, to the principal authorities quoted, but specific acknowledgment should here be made of the authorÕs indebtedness to the Cavaliere De RossiÕs Roma Sotterranea and Inscriptiones Christian¾, by far the most important works on this fascinating but difficult subject. Believing that the testimony of the Catacombs exhibits, more strikingly than any other evidence, the immense contrast between primitive Christianity and modern Romanism, the author thinks no apology necessary for the somewhat polemical character of portions of this book which illustrate that fact. He trusts that it will be found a contribution of some value to the historical defense of the truth against the corruptions and innovations of Popish error.

The Order of Saint Lazarus is a lesser known Crusader Order that saw its development in the wake of the First Crusade in the 12th century together with the more popularly known Crusader Orders - the Order of Saint John and the Order of the Temple. Its original brief in the Kingdom of Jerusalem was to succour the victims of leprosy but eventually assumed a military role. Supported by various European Royal houses, the Order expanded its range of influence to Europe. By reviewing the history using primary sources, whenever possible, one would hope that the reader would be able to identify fact from fiction throughout the historical timeline.
