Il cruciverba di Santa Flora di Cristiano Benci. Un vero e proprio cruciverba dedicato alla città di Santa Flora. Santa Fiora è un comune italiano di 2 542 abitanti della provincia di Grosseto in Toscana. Fa parte dei borghi più belli d'Italia. Citata per la prima volta in un documento dell'anno 890, Santa Fiora è ricordata come villa con oltre cento poderi nel 1082 e come castello nel 1141, detto di Santa Flore. Dominio storico dei conti Aldobrandeschi, fu sede della contea assegnata nel 1274 a Ildebrandino, figlio di Bonifacio, quando il territorio aldobrandesco fu diviso nei due rami di Santa Fiora e Sovana: l'area della contea di Santa Fiora comprendeva anche i territori di Arcidosso, Castel del Piano, Roccastrada, Castiglione d'Orcia, Semproniano e Selvena. Nel corso del XIII secolo, Santa Fiora divenne uno dei centri più importanti della Toscana meridionale, fulcro della resistenza ghibellina al governo di Siena, arrivando a mettersi in opposizione ad Abbadia San Salvatore, che ormai da secoli dominava l'area del Monte Amiata. La località è citata da Dante nel VI canto del Purgatorio proprio per la sua appartenenza ghibellina («e vedrai Santafior com'è oscura»). Nel corso del XIV secolo, la città iniziò a cadere sotto l'influsso di Siena, perdendo i castelli di Arcidosso e Castel del Piano, conquistati da Guidoriccio da Fogliano nel 1331, e finendo occupata dai senesi negli anni tra il 1380 e il 1384, anni in cui si assisté alla distruzione dei palazzi comitali ed alla costruzione di una nuova rocca. Alla fine del XIV secolo la contea, fortemente indebolita, rimaneva in possesso solo dei castelli di Santa Fiora, Castell'Azzara e Scansano. Con la fine degli Aldobrandeschi, alla metà del XV secolo il territorio della contea passò alla famiglia Sforza in virtù del matrimonio tra Cecilia Aldobrandeschi, figlia dell'ultimo conte della casata, Guido, e Bosio Sforza, nato a Montegiovi da Muzio Sforza e Antonia Salimbeni. Il figlio di Bosio, Guido Sforza, governò la contea tentando di riportare Santa Fiora agli antichi fasti: arricchì la città con opere d'arte, come le terrecotte di Andrea della Robbia della pieve delle Sante Flora e Lucilla; fece costruire palazzi nobiliari e opere pubbliche come la Peschiera; ospitò più volte papa Pio II Piccolomini legando rapporti con il papato (sposò anche la nipote di Alessandro Farnese, futuro Paolo III); difese Santa Fiora dal tentativo di invasione delle truppe del duca Valentino Borgia; entrò inoltre nella leggenda e nel folclore locale per aver ucciso un "drago" che infestava quei territori, il cui teschio è conservato nel convento della Selva. Nel corso degli anni gli Sforza, dal XVII secolo uniti con i Cesarini, interessati più ai legami con Roma che all'antica capitale della contea, lasciarono Santa Fiora nelle mani di alcuni vicari, tra i quali sono da ricordare soprattutto i Luciani e i Menichetti, poi nel XIX secolo Ricci Menichetti, infeudati di Castell'Azzara. Infine, nel 1624, la contea fu annessa al Granducato di Toscana. Santa Fiora conobbe una certa ripresa economica tra il XIX e il XX secolo, quando si affermò importante centro minerario per l'escavazione del cinabro, venendo raggiunta da numerosi lavoratori da ogni parte della Toscana.

Emilio Sereni's classic work is now available in an English language edition. History of the Italian Agricultural Landscape is a synthesis of the agricultural history of Italy in its economic, social, and ecological context, from antiquity to the mid-twentieth century. From his perspective in the Italian tradition of cultural Marxism, Sereni guides the reader through the millennial changes that have affected the agriculture and ecology of the regions of Italy, as well as through the successes and failures of farmers and technicians in antiquity, the middle ages, the Renaissance, and the Industrial Revolution. In this sweeping historical survey, he describes attempts by successive generations to adapt Italy's natural environment for the purposes of agriculture and to respond to its changing ecological problems. History of the Italian Agricultural Landscape first appeared in 1961. At the time of its publication it was a pathbreaking work, parallel in its importance for Italy to Marc Bloc's masterwork of 1931, The Original Characteristics of French Rural History. Sereni invented the concept of the historical "agricultural landscape": an interdisciplinary characterization of rural life involving economic and social history, linguistics, archeology, art history, and ecological studies. Originally published in 1997. The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand technology to again make available previously out-of-print books from the distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press. These editions preserve the original texts of these important books while presenting them in durable paperback and hardcover editions. The goal of the Princeton Legacy Library is to vastly increase access to the rich scholarly heritage found in the thousands of books published by Princeton University Press since its founding in 1905.

In the piazza, a man lies dead. No one will say if they witnessed his killing. This presents a challenge to the investigating officer, a man who earnestly believes in the values of a democratic and modern society. Indeed, his enquiries are soon blocked off by a wall of silence and vested interests; he must work against the community to save it and expose the truth.The narrative moves on two levels: that of the investigator, who reveals a chain of savage crimes; and that of the bystanders and watchers, of those complicit with secret power, whose gossipy, furtive conversations have only one end - to stop the truth coming out. This novel about the Mafia is also a mesmerizing demonstration of how that organization sustains itself. It is both a beautifully, tautly written story and a brave act of denunciation.
