Digital Draw Connections

This book stems from the seminal work of Robert Venturi and aims at re-projecting it in the current cultural debate by extending it to the scale of landscape and placing it in connection with representative issues. It brings out the transdisciplinary synthesis of a necessarily interdisciplinary approach to the theme, aimed at creating new models which are able to represent the complexity of a contradictory reality and to redefine the centrality of human dimension. As such, the volume gathers multiple experiences developed in different geographical areas, which come into connection with the role of representation. Composed of 43 chapters written by 81 authors from around the world, with an introduction by Jim Venturi and Cezar Nicolescu, the volume is divided into two parts, the first one more theoretical and the other one which showcases real-world applications, although there is never a total split between criticism and operational experimentation of research.

Echoes of Opera in Modern Italian Poetry

Twentieth-century Italian poetry is haunted by countless ghosts and shadows from opera. Echoes of Opera in Modern Italian Poetry reveals their presence and sheds light on their role in shaping that great poetic tradition. This is the first work in English to analyze the influence of opera on modern Italian poetry, uncovering a fundamental but neglected relationship between the two art forms. A group of Italian poets, from Gabriele D’Annunzio to Giorgio Caproni, by way of Umberto Saba and Eugenio Montale, made opera a cornerstone of their artistic craft. More than an occasional stylistic influence, opera is rather analyzed as a fundamental facet of these poets’ intellectual quest to overcome the expressive limitations of lyrical poetry. This book reframes modern Italian poetry in a truly interdisciplinary perspective, broadening our understanding of its prominence within the humanities, in the twentieth century and beyond.

With this work I wish to illustrate some of the rules that are hidden in the marvelous beauty of the creation. Although, the object of investigation by man since the dawn of time they reached me fragmented and sunk in mystery. So much so that I felt that I had to transform mere curiosity into deeper knowledge. The myth of Phaedrus suggests that we have to dominate our senses to reach real permanencies. Nature with her harmonies has us enthralled but she is hidden. I will, therefore try, mainly in the first part of my discussion and where possible not to use images relating to this topic. The harmony of creation was soon interlaced with mathematics. I too need to recourse to it but have tried to make my reasoning accessible to most, knowing that I might disappoint some.

Beethoven Duemila

Se i grandi compositori del passato avessero avuto a disposizione gli strumenti di oggi, con estensioni ben più ampie, avrebbero potuto comporre in libertà secondo ogni loro necessità espressiva. Avrebbero così potuto completare una linea melodica senza dover scendere di un'ottava o doverla affidare ad altri strumenti che disponevano di una tessitura più estesa. Questo libro (in quattro lingue: inglese, spagnolo e tedesco oltre italiano) presenta le "attualizzazioni" delle Nove Sinfonie e di tutte le composizioni sinfoniche e corali di Ludwig van Beethoven, che il Maestro Aldo Ceccato ha completato sulla scia di quanto intrapreso da Wagner e Mahler.

This volume was first published by Inter-Disciplinary Press in 2015. Storytelling has always played a central role in the formation of cultures and communities. All cultures define themselves and their place in the world through their stories. Similarly, our identities are largely constructed as narratives, and it is with the aid of storytelling that we manage to conceive of ourselves – our selves – as meaningful wholes. Thus, storytelling is not ever absent: it is to be found in literature, social life, in the places we visit and the buildings we live in. This volume presents storytelling in various appearances: from ancient myths and oral history, to transmedia narratives and digital stories. Different forms of narrative are analysed, as is the use of storytelling as a method for e.g. counselling, education and research. Throughout twenty-five chapters, a compelling overview of recent research on the topic is provided, both stressing the omnipresence of storytelling and exploring what storytelling is and isn’t.
