Wisdom Engaged
"I listened to my mum, my dad, my gramma, that is why I am still here. That is how you stay alive." —Mida Donnessey Wisdom Engaged demonstrates how traditional knowledge, Indigenous approaches to healing, and the insights of Western bio-medicine can complement each other when all voices are heard in a collaborative effort to address changes to Indigenous communities' well-being. In this collection, voices of Elders, healers, physicians, and scholars are gathered in an attempt to find viable ways to move forward while facing new challenges. Bringing these varied voices together provides a critical conversation about the nature of medicine; a demonstration of ethical commitment; and an examp...
Bishops, Saints, and Historians
Throughout his career, Robert Brentano attempted to understand the nature and 'style' of ecclesiastical institutions in Italy and the British Isles, the specific qualities of saints and the communities that formed around them, and the ways in which seemingly cryptic archival remains of medieval administrative activity, as well as chronicles and lives, could reveal vital details about change and continuity in local and regional religious life and even 'the color of men's souls'. These issues are explored in the essays assembled in Parts I (Bishops) and II (Saints). Part III (Historians) brings together articles that examine the writing of history by both medieval authors and modern historians, and includes Brentano's reflections on his own practice as an historian. The introduction by W. L. North offers a brief biography and introduction to reading Brentano's works, followed by a complete bibliography of his publications.

L'11 settembre ha cambiato la storia, ma ogni tentativo di interrogarsi in merito viene definito come violazione di un tabù. Invece in questi anni - sostengono gli autori - è stato possibile accumulare le prove definitive per affermare senza ombra di dubbio che la versione ufficiale è un falso.

La provincia e l'Impero
Il trafugamento dagli archivi statunitensi di centinaia di migliaia di documenti ha rivoluzionato nel 2010 il panorama informativo mondiale, imponendo il “caso WikiLeaks” all’attenzione generale. Gli inconfessabili retroscena dell’invasione dell’Iraq e i reali motivi della presenza militare in Afghanistan costituiscono solo una parte dei dispacci diplomatici centrati sulla politica estera statunitense, ovvero sul sistema di potere che condiziona gli assetti internazionali. La valanga di materiale desecretato in un modo così inusuale e massiccio coinvolge un decennio di vicende italiane: dai rapporti italo-statunitensi alle valutazioni sul “personaggio” Berlusconi, alla politic...
