Afromodernisms

Makes a persuasive case for a black Atlantic literary renaissance & its impact on modernist studies. These 10 new chapters stretch and challenge current canonical configurations of modernism in two key ways: by considering the centrality of black artists, writers and intellectuals as key actors and core presences in the development of a modernist avant-garde; and by interrogating 'blackness' as an aesthetic and political category at critical moments during the twentieth century. This is the first book-length publication to explore the term 'Afromodernisms' and the first study to address together the cognate fields of modernism and the black Atlantic.

This book documents the state of the art in the field of ambient assisted living (AAL), highlighting the impressive potential of novel methodologies and technologies to enhance well-being and promote active ageing. The coverage is wide ranging, with sections on assistive devices, elderly people monitoring, home rehabilitation, ICT solutions for AAL, living with chronic conditions, robotic assistance for the elderly, sensing technologies for AAL, and smart housing. The book comprises a selection of the best papers presented at the Fifth Italian Forum on Ambient Assisted Living, which was held in Catania, Italy, in September 2014 and brought together end users, technology teams, and policy makers to develop a consensus on how to improve provision for elderly and impaired people. Readers will find that the expert contributions offer clear insights into the ways in which the most recent exciting advances may be expected to assist in addressing the needs of the elderly and those with chronic conditions.

Le Uova del Drago

Capitò di tutto, in Sicilia, tra il 1943 e il 1947. Anche che il migliore soldato tedesco fosse una donna, Eughenia Lenbach, bella e giovane. Una spia selezionata direttamente da Hitler per una missione di estrema importanza. Nome in codice “Uova del drago”: in caso di sconfitta del Reich sarà lei a dover organizzare presso le giovani generazioni focolai di riscossa. Ad aiutarla, proprio mentre gli Alleati sbarcano sull’isola, undici musulmani travestiti da frati cappuccini... Pietrangelo Buttafuoco mette in scena una storia vera, intricata e affascinante; e lo fa coniugando le cadenze di un robusto realismo venato di umori sulfurei con il ritmo fantastico del teatro dei pupi; fondendo il mondo corrusco e taciturno delle saghe nordiche con la loquace solarità mediterranea nell’unione più bizzarra eppure coerente che si possa immaginare.

LA VICENDA ALDO MORO

LA VICENDA ALDO MORO

E’ comodo definirsi scrittori da parte di chi non ha arte né parte. I letterati, che non siano poeti, cioè scrittori stringati, si dividono in narratori e saggisti. E’ facile scrivere “C’era una volta….” e parlare di cazzate con nomi di fantasia. In questo modo il successo è assicurato e non hai rompiballe che si sentono diffamati e che ti querelano e che, spesso, sono gli stessi che ti condannano. Meno facile è essere saggisti e scrivere “C’è adesso….” e parlare di cose reali con nomi e cognomi. Impossibile poi è essere saggisti e scrivere delle malefatte dei magistrati e del Potere in generale, che per logica ti perseguitano per farti cessare di scrivere. Devastante è farlo senza essere di sinistra. Quando si parla di veri scrittori ci si ricordi di Dante Alighieri e della fine che fece il primo saggista mondiale. Le vittime, vere o presunte, di soprusi, parlano solo di loro, inascoltati, pretendendo aiuto. Io da vittima non racconto di me e delle mie traversie. Ascoltato e seguito, parlo degli altri, vittime o carnefici, che l’aiuto cercato non lo concederanno mai.
