Fantascienza - romanzo breve (63 pagine) - A venticinque anni dalla scomparsa un omaggio al più famoso scrittore di fantascienza e ai suoi robot. Isaac Asimov è morto nel 1992, venticinque anni fa. Ma questo racconto venne scritto un anno prima della scomparsa del grande scrittore, e lo immagina centenario, nel 2020, al centro di un misterioso caso di tentato omicidio. Asimov vive tranquillo in una casa di riposo, insieme al fido aiutante robot, e lavora al suo ultimo libro, una nuova autobiografia, quando qualcuno tenta di assassinarlo. Ma chi può volere così male a un vecchio scrittore di fantascienza e di divulgazione scintifica, al padre spirituale dei robot? Vittorio Catani è una delle colonne della fantascienza italiana. Scrive fantascienza fin dai tempi della rivista Oltre il cielo; è stato il vincitore della prima edizione del Premio Urania nel 1989; ha pubblicato innumerevoli libri e racconti in riviste e antologie, ed è l'autore che ha vinto il maggior numero di premi Italia nella sua carriera. I suoi lavori sono stati tradotti in una decina di lingue, dal francese al giapponese. Sempre curioso delle novità e al passo coi tempi ha prodotto negli anni audiodrammi, curato programmi radiofonici, ed è stato tra i primi collaboratori della rivista online Delos Science Fiction e di Fantascienza.com.

With chapters written by leading international scholars that explore how literary writers and popular culture responded to Darwin's thought, the book also includes an extensive timeline of his cultural reception in Europe and bibliographies of major translations in each country.

What is the relation between human life on earth and 'life' after death in the theology of Saint Thomas Aquinas (1224/5-1274)? In this study this question is dealt with from the perspective of the foundations, dynamism and perfection of the human relationship with God. It is shown how Aquinas' ('negative') theological analysis of 'life' as a name of God works out in qualifying his account of both human life on earth and 'life' after death as two interrelated modes of living with God. Written at an accessible level and having the width of a thematic study on the key-word 'life', this book can also be read as an introduction to the theology of Thomas Aquinas.

Brazil marked its centennial as an independent country in 1922. Claiming Brazil explores how Brazilians from different walks of life commemorated the event, and how this led to conflicting ideas of national identity. Civic rituals hold enormous significance, and Brazilian citizens, immigrants, and visitors employed them to articulate and perform their sense of what Brazil was, stood for, and could be. Gregg Bocketti argues that these celebrations, rather than uniting the country, highlighted tensions between modernity and tradition, over race and ethnicity, and between nation and region. Further, the rituals contributed to the collapse of the country’s social and political status quo and gave substance to the debates and ideas that characterized Brazilian life in the 1920s and then under the transformative rule of Getúlio Vargas (1930–1945). Now, at the bicentennial of Brazil’s independence, which itself unfolds in a period of political crisis and economic dislocation, and in the aftermath of several large civic events, it is an opportune moment to consider how Brazilians used civic rituals to engage with questions of identity, belonging, and citizenship one hundred years ago.

This book is the first collection of multi-disciplinary research on the experience of Italian-Jewish musicians and composers in Fascist Italy. Drawing together seven diverse essays from both established and emerging scholars across a range of fields, this book examines multiple aspects of this neglected period of music history, including the marginalization and expulsion of Jewish musicians and composers from Italian theatres and conservatories after the 1938–39 Race Laws, and their subsequent exile and persecution. Using a variety of critical perspectives and innovative methodological approaches, these essays reconstruct and analyze the impact that the Italian Race Laws and Fascist Italy’s musical relations with Nazi Germany had on the lives and works of Italian Jewish composers from 1933 to 1945. These original contributions on relatively unresearched aspects of historical musicology offer new insight into the relationship between the Fascist regime and music.

Un titolo elisabettiano (ne ebbe di amanti la Regina Vergine) per un tentativo di rotta, di circumnavigazione di un mondo così tondo da prevedere ogni tipo di situazioni, ogni gioco di contrasti: la gloria e la vergogna, l’arroganza e l’umiltà, il martirio e la joie de vivre, l’ascesa e la caduta, il miracolo offerto da chi è stato toccato dal demone e i risultati frutto di umanissimi sforzi. Più che una storia ordinata dell’atletica, Regina di tutti gli sport, il libro di Giorgio Cimbrico propone momenti, ricordi - di riporto e diretti -, profili di belli e dannati, capaci di lasciare il segno nello sport che li accomuna e li anticipa tutti nel repertorio delle attitudini e dei gesti, nel desiderio del confronto, nelle motivazioni che germogliano. Così, l’'atletica, più che regina, diviene la smisurata strada maestra che percorre l’India: invita a percorrerla, per percorrersi dentro.

Populism is a category which is often abused in current public discourse. It is an issue that is usually looked at from the perspective of political science or cultural studies, while historians have rarely confronted it. Nonetheless, the study of historical cases of populism is a necessary preliminary task for an in-depth examination of the topic. This book opens up a channel of dialogue among political scientists, sociologists, philosophers and historians in order to launch a debate on the declination of the populist phenomenon. The essays here consist of the reflections of various scholars on several national cases through a survey conducted on a large temporal and spatial horizon, from the experiences developed in Eastern Europe at the end of the nineteenth century to the more recent events of Ukraine’s revolution at the end of the twentieth; and from the first case of a populist party in the US to the examples of the Italian political scenario in the 1980s, in order to identify which historical perspective would be the most suitable for understanding populism and if populism can actually be considered a category that fits into the historical investigation of these phenomena.
