La via della birra
La birra non è una scoperta perché fa parte della natura intelligente e c'è da quando l'uomo ha cominciato a pensare (Arrigo Cipriani, dal libro) Questa guida al turismo birraio in giro per l'Italia [...] sarà uno strumento molto utile, per non dire indispensabile, per i sempre più mumerosi beerhunters italiani, assetati non solo di buone birre ma anche di arte, cultura e bellezze naturali, patrimoni in cui la nostra Italia non è seconda a nessuno al mondo. (Lorenzo Dabove in arte Kuaska, dal libro) Dagli anni Novanta l’Italia è stata protagonista di un rinascimento molto particolare: il rinascimento della birra di produzione nostrana, con metodi artigianali e ricette innovative.

Baroque Venice
"This lavish book is the first ever art historical study to survey this specific and crucial period in the history of ‘La Serenissima’ – the Baroque. The 17th century saw Venice’s last big drive to respond on a cultural and artistic level to the Republic’s inexorable decline on the great stage of European politics. The city’s fabric still reflects the desire that was felt at the time for grandiloquent displays of hoped-for triumph. Excess and ostentation prevailed, fuelling a tendency for abundant ornamentation, a taste for the grotesque and the bizarre, and a zeal for enormity and greatness. Here, the authors trace the progression of painting, sculpture and architecture in 17th-century Venice in a series of scholarly essays illuminated by hundreds of glorious illustrations celebrating the city’s seminal examplars of Baroque style, among them Santa Maria della Salute, the mosaics of St Mark’s and the paintings of Giambattista Tiepolo."--Publisher's description.
The Greeks of Venice, 1498-1600
This volume traces the history of Venice's Greek population during the formative years between 1498 and 1600 when thousands left their homelands for Venice. It describes how Greeks established new communal and social networks, and follows their transition from outsiders to insiders (though not quite Venetians) through an approach that offers a comparative perspective between the 'native' and the immigrant. It places Greeks within the context of multi-cultural, multi-ethnic, and multi-lingual Venice.
