Art of Cinematography
A rereading of the Seventh Art through the eyes of the most important authors of cinematographic photography. The Art of Cinematography underscores the essential importance of the figure of the cinematographer in the history of world cinema. This illustrated book, for the first time ever, presents a rereading of the Seventh Art through the eyes of the most important authors of cinematographic photography, as well as offering an original view of the all-time greatest masterpieces of cinema. A full-blown review that stretches from 1910 to the present day to provide the reader with over one hundred and fifty profiles of Cinematographers in a whole century of cinema. A bold and complex publishing project that is meant to be a tribute to cinematographers everywhere. This bilingual Italian-English volume is illustrated by one hundred and fifty high-quality photographic images in double vision specially reworked by Oscar-winner Vittorio Storaro.

The Price of Freedom
The Price of Freedom surveys and explains the fascinating and intricate history of East Central Europe - the present day countries of the Czech Republic, Hungary, Poland and Slovakia. Taking a thematic approach, the author explores such issues and controversies as the tension between the industrial developed West and the agrarian East Central Europe, the rise of modern nationalism, democracy and authoritarianism and Communism. While the countries of East Central Europe have differed dramatically from one another, the author asserts that they have been bound by a certain community of fate. These comparisons are traced through the Middle Ages and the Early Modern era to the nineteenth and twen...
