My name is Alessandro, and I have been alive for more than eight hundred years. Born in Venice in the twelfth century, Alessandro finds himself storming the gates of Constantinople with the Crusades -- only to be seriously wounded in the attack and left for dead. Or at least he should have been dead. Miraculously coaxed back to health by a woman possessing knowledge of ancient healing powers, Alessandro slowly understands that somehow, as his friends and lovers become older with the passage of time, his face remains unmarred as it was the day he awoke from his injuries. Eventually forced to leave the people who have grown to be his family, Alessandro must travel from destination to destination, each time making a new place his home for a few years and leaving before his secret is discovered. He stamps his personal touch on many great works of art through his travels, and he flourishes in profession after profession. The Diaries of Alessandro da Veneto are packed with danger, love, and a lush ground-level sense of history. Through the eyes of a brilliant man and his memoirs, Dr. Parrish gives his readers a glimpse into a richness of art, politics and culture of the time periods through which his journalist wanders. Alessandro has an articulate and sensitive voice and all the quiet power of his vast years, and his detailed descriptions, are as captivating as the countrysides themselves.

Portelli offers a new and challenging approach to oral history, with an interdisciplinary and multicultural perspective. Examining cultural conflict and communication between social groups and classes in industrial societies, he identifies the way individuals strive to create memories in order to make sense of their lives, and evaluates the impact of the fieldwork experience on the consciousness of the researcher. By recovering the value of the story-telling experience, Portelli's work makes delightful reading for the specialist and non-specialist alike.

This book explores, from a transnational viewpoint, the historical relationship between war veterans and fascism in interwar Europe. Until now, historians have been roughly divided between those who assume that 'brutalization' (George L. Mosse) led veterans to join fascist movements and those who stress that most ex-soldiers of the Great War became committed pacifists and internationalists. Transcending the debates of the brutalization thesis and drawing upon a wide range of archival and published sources, this work focuses on the interrelated processes of transnationalization and the fascist permeation of veterans' politics in interwar Europe to offer a wider perspective on the history of both fascism and veterans' movements. A combination of mythical constructs, transfers, political communication, encounters and networks within a transnational space explain the relationship between veterans and fascism. Thus, this book offers new insights into the essential ties between fascism and war, and contributes to the theorization of transnational fascism.

The treatise De mundo offers a cosmology in the Peripatetic tradition which subordinates what happens in the cosmos to the might of an omnipotent god. Thus the work is paradigmatic for the philosophical and religious concepts of the early imperial age, which offer points of contact with nascent Christianity.

Art Crossing Borders offers a thought-provoking analysis of the internationalisation of the art market during the long nineteenth century. Twelve experts, dealing with a wide variety of geographical, temporal, and commercial contexts, explore how the gradual integration of art markets structurally depended on the simultaneous rise of nationalist modes of thinking, in unexpected and ambiguous ways. By presenting a radically international research perspective Art Crossing Borders offers a crucial contribution to the field of art market studies.
