Thomas Sankara
Thomas Sankara: A Revolutionary in Cold War Africa offers the first complete biography in English of the dynamic revolutionary leader from Burkina Faso, Thomas Sankara. Coming to power in 1983, Sankara set his sights on combating social injustice, poverty, and corruption in his country, fighting for women's rights, direct forms of democracy, economic sovereignty, and environmental justice. Drawing on government archival sources and over a hundred interviews with Sankara's family members, friends, and closest revolutionary colleagues, Brian J. Peterson details Sankara's political career and rise to power, as well as his assassination at age 37 in 1987, in a plot led by his close friend Blaise Compaoré. Thomas Sankara: A Revolutionary in Cold War Africa offers a unique, critical appraisal of Sankara and explores why he generated such enthusiasm and hope in Burkina Faso and beyond, why he was such a polarizing figure, how his rivals seized power from him, and why T-shirts sporting his image still appear on the streets today.
The Cultivated Landscape
By the late twentieth century, idyllic depictions of eighteenth-century manorial landscapes had become artistic expressions of dislocation. Western agricultural paradigms had shifted, as had the relationship between art and agriculture. The Cultivated Landscape uses over seventy illustrations to look at the development of Western agriculture from feudal times to the present. Craig Pearson and Judith Nasby discuss the evolution of how we think about agriculture, its use of the land and impact on landscape, and how landscape has been portrayed historically in art. They also offer a wider discussion on the role that science and economics have played in agricultural development and the parallels to changes in art form. The Cultivated Landscape ends with a discussion of the complex issues facing agriculture today, the need for greater connectivity between agriculture and our environment, and options for the future.

Le segnature pedagogiche del visual design
Questo volume offre un inedito punto di vista per guardare retrospettivamente alla tradizione educativa del visual design attraverso la nozione di “segnatura pedagogica”, inerente alla ricognizione dei principali modelli didattici che le discipline mettono in atto per trasmettere agli allievi il proprio, specifico apparato di conoscenze. Nel proporre la rilettura critica di alcune esperienze paradigmatiche, i concetti di “studio”, “formulazione” e “materialità” sono intesi come tre possibili cornici di senso secondo cui inquadrare alcuni dei principi fondamentali attorno ai quali ha storicamente ruotato, e ruota a tutt’oggi, la formazione del visual designer. Seppur eterogenee, le esperienze presentate afferiscono alla dimensione della pedagogia propedeutica, ovvero a quella particolare tipologia di approcci all’insegnamento e all’apprendimento connotati dalla finalità di supportare gli studenti nell’acquisizione di un primo, basilare livello di alfabetizzazione progettuale.
