Digital Ageism
This anthology contributes to creating awareness on how digital ageism operates in relation to the widely spread symbolic representations of old and young age around digital technologies, the (lack of) representation of diverse older individuals in the design, development, and marketing of digital technologies and in the actual algorithms and datasets that constitute them. It also shows how individuals and institutions deal with digital ageism in everyday life. In the past decades, digital technologies permeated most aspects of everyday life.

The Blackshirts’ Dictatorship
On October 1922 Mussolini became head of the Italian government, a situation that would last for twenty years.

I seicento giorni di terrore a Milano
Salvatore Quasimodo restituisce la drammatica immagine della città nelle poche righe della sua disperata poesia Milano, agosto 1943: «Invano cerchi tra la polvere: / povera mano, la città è morta. / È morta: s’è udito l’ultimo rombo sul cuore del Naviglio...». I bombardamenti hanno costretto a sfollare mezzo milione di milanesi, e molti senza tetto non sanno dove andare. Entro la cerchia dei Navigli, oltre i due terzi delle case sono distrutte o seriamente danneggiate. Ma il peggio deve ancora venire. Dal settembre del 1943 all’aprile del 1945 Milano vive i suoi giorni più terribili. Firmato l’armistizio, il generale Ruggero, che comanda la piazza di Milano, negozia un tratta...
