Non può esserci spiegazione valida che interpreti il sottile, onnipresente anelito dell’umano all’autodistruzione. L’uomo crea solo per distruggere, anche quando camuffa la parola con quell’ansia di cambiamento, ricostruzione, svecchiamento, che tanti proseliti e teorici ha ormai conquistato in ogni angolo del pianeta.“Le città cadute” è il romanzo che più di tutti trasporta sul piano fantastico e immaginifico un filone apocalittico fonte di tante celebri produzioni cinematografiche. Ovviamente, l’approccio mantiene l’originalità e la perizia che un autore “visionario”, al pari del suo narratore, è in grado di infondervi.Le cronache seguono i diari di Flavio Damiani, condannato suo malgrado a essere portatore del messaggio di disfacimento della civiltà urbana in ognuna delle metropoli in cui, in un giro del mondo durato venti mesi, è costretto a recarsi dalla furia indomabile dei Creatori.La lettura dei diari offre anche al lettore un curioso modo di avvicinarsi alla storia e all’architettura monumentale di tredici città, di cui sei italiane, proprio nel momento in cui tali meraviglie, osservate “dall’interno”, cadono in polvere nel corso di un’emergenza globale e mai affrontata, prima d’ora, dall’uomo sulla Terra.Falsamente accusato di velleità terroristiche o nichilistiche, Damiani si fa alla fine portatore di un messaggio di conforto e speranza per un’umanità al momento (proprio nel mondo del lettore) invischiata in un’ansia di progresso, crescita, freddo intellettualismo, che rischiano di distruggere moralità, dignità, libertà dell’individuo ancor più dei maestosi grattacieli e delle ariosissime cattedrali delle città cadute.

Modern seismology has faced new challenges in the study of earthquakes and their physical characteristics. This volume is dedicated to the use of new approaches and presents a state-of-the-art in historical seismology. Selected historical and recent earthquakes are chosen to document and constrain related seismic parameters using updated methodologies in the macroseismic analysis, field observations of damage distribution and tectonic effects, and modelling of seismic waveforms.

This book presents a semiotic study of the re-elaboration of Christian narratives and values in a corpus of Italian novels published after the Second Vatican Council (1960s). It tackles the complex set of ideas expressed by Italian writers about the biblical narration of human origins and traditional religious language and ritual, the perceived clash between the immanent and transcendent nature and role of the Church, and the problematic notion of sanctity emerging from contemporary narrative.

Using original sources--such as newspaper articles, silent movies, letters, autobiographies, and interviews--Ilaria Serra depicts a large tapestry of images that accompanied mass Italian migration to the U.S. at the turn of the twentieth century. She chooses to translate the Italian concept of immaginario with the Latin imago that felicitously blends the double English translation of the word as "imagery" and "imaginary." Imago is a complex knot of collective representations of the immigrant subject, a mental production that finds concrete expression; impalpable, yet real. The "imagined immigrant" walks alongside the real one in flesh and rags.

The planet is sick. Human beings are guilty of damaging it. We have to pay. Today, that is the orthodoxy throughout the Western world. Distrust of progress and science, calls for individual and collective self-sacrifice to ‘save the planet’ and cultivation of fear: behind the carbon commissars, a dangerous and counterproductive ecological catastrophism is gaining ground. Modern society’s susceptibility to this kind of thinking derives from what Bruckner calls “the seductive attraction of disaster,” as exemplified by the popular appeal of disaster movies. But ecological catastrophism is harmful in that it draws attention away from other, more solvable problems and injustices in the world in order to focus on something that is portrayed as an Apocalypse. Rather than preaching catastrophe and pessimism, we need to develop a democratic and generous ecology that addresses specific problems in a practical way.

La storia della mafia in Italia ha tra i suoi massimi esperti Saverio Lodato, giornalista meticoloso e accurato divulgatore dei meccanismi della mafia e della sua storia da oltre cinquant'anni. Questa nuova edizione del volume, che è un longseller del genere dal 1990, si arricchisce di ulteriori capitoli che affrontano con il consueto stile puntuale gli eventi più eclatanti degli ultimi anni. Tra questi spiccano il processo sulla trattativa Stato-mafia giunto alla definitiva sentenza assolutoria di Cassazione e l'occasione fallita dell'arresto di Matteo Messina Denaro che non ha prodotto quelle confessioni tanto auspicate per chiarire la stagione stragista degli anni 1992-94. E, ancora, si aprono riflessioni sull'evoluzione che avrà la mafia dopo la scomparsa dei suoi tre più grandi padrini: Bernardo Provenzano, Totò Riina e, infine, lo stesso Matteo Messina Denaro. Uno strumento indispensabile per comprendere la natura di Cosa Nostra, per fare luce sui torbidi rapporti con parti dello Stato, sempre in bilico tra collusione e aperto conflitto, per ricordare gli eroi, i vincitori e gli sconfitti di una guerra che non è ancora finita. Perché la mafia esiste ancora, anche se è stata capace di cambiare la propria natura. Un'opera enciclopedica ancora oggi necessaria che mette a sistema, senza retorica né censura, i fatti che hanno segnato la storia della mafia, fino alla più stringente attualità.
