My desire is that you'll have the words of this little book take you to lands never seen and to feelings which you never experimented. This is an expanded version of the previous one.
The Mythological Origins of Renaissance Florence
In this book, Irina Chernetsky examines how humanists, patrons, and artists promoted Florence as the reincarnation of the great cities of pagan and Christian antiquity – Athens, Rome, and Jerusalem. The architectural image of an ideal Florence was discussed in chronicles and histories, poetry and prose, and treatises on art and religious sermons. It was also portrayed in paintings, sculpture, and sketches, as well as encoded in buildings erected during the fourteenth and fifteenth centuries. Over time, the concept of an ideal Florence became inseparable from the real city, in both its social and architectural structures. Chernetsky demonstrates how the Renaissance notion of genealogy was applied to Florence, which was considered to be part of a family of illustrious cities of both the past and present. She also explores the concept of the ideal city in its intellectual, political, and aesthetic contexts, while offering new insights into the experience of urban space.
Florence
Each year, millions of visitors travel to Florence to admire the architectural marvels of this famous Renaissance city. In this compact yet comprehensive volume, architect and architectural historian Richard J. Goy offers a convenient, accessible guide to the city’s piazzas, palazzos, basilicas, and other architectural points of interest, as well as pertinent historical details regarding Florence’s unique urban environment. Clearly laid out and fully illustrated, this handbook is designed around a series of expertly planned walking tours that encompass not only the city’s most admired architectural sites, but also its lesser-known gems. Maps are tailored to each walking tour and provide additional references and insights, along with introductory chapters on the city’s architectural history, urban design, and building materials and techniques. Featuring a complete bibliography, glossary of key terms, and other useful reference materials, Goy’s guide will appeal both to travelers who desire a greater architectural context and analysis than that offered by a traditional guide and to return visitors looking to rediscover Florence’s most enchanting sites.

Resultado de pesquisa de doutorado, aborda as políticas públicas de energia elétrica e sua interface com as questões socioambientais. Embora a energia elétrica possibilite o acesso a outros bens e serviços públicos, também apresenta estreita vinculação com desastres ecológicos e alterações, muitas vezes irreversíveis, à natureza e ao próprio homem. Por isso, a garantia do acesso à energia elétrica deve ter como alicerce a construção de estratégias que valorizem a vocação social, econômica e energética de cada território, visando à redução dos impactos socioambientais decorrentes da implantação de novos empreendimentos de geração. Ainda mais quando se trata de...
Consumo: imaginário, estratégia e experiência
Em tempos de vida digital pensar nas relações sociais virtuais pode até passar despercebido, até porque, aceitando ou não, já se tornou natural acordar pela manhã e quase que imediatamente conferir as atualizações da timeline. Porém, num momento em que a rotina sai do anonimato e transforma a vida em uma atração, ganhando notoriedade para uma rede de não apenas poucos familiares e amigos, é que vemos a importância de conversar sobre o assunto e entender como as relações têm se estabelecido. Mais do que isso, é necessário entender também como estes espaços modificam o consumo de bens e, especialmente, a forma como as marcas passaram a se comunicar com os seus consumidore...
Feminist Reception Studies in a Post-Audience Age
This book makes an important return to reception studies at an exciting juncture of media distribution and modes of consumption. The editors’ introduction contextualizes this new work within a long history of feminist approaches to audience research, and argues that new media forms require new methods of research that remain invested in questions of gender, sexuality, and power. The contributions are rooted in the dynamics of everyday life and present innovative approaches to media and audiences. These include investigating online contexts, transnational flows of media images, and new possibilities of self-representation and distribution. Collectively, this work provides a robust theoretical and methodological framework for understanding media reception from a feminist communication and media studies perspective. The scholars included are in the vanguard of contemporary thinking about media audiences and users of technology in what some call the ‘post-audience’ age. The chapters in this book were originally published as a special issue of Feminist Media Studies.
