Now Through a Glass Darkly
Nolan explores the way Roman and medieval authors used the mirror as both instrument and metaphor
Challenges for the Italian Boating Industry
Unlike any other Italian manufacturing sector, Italy's recreational boating industry has recorded skyrocketing growth rates for years, ultimately achieving a world leadership position in the construction of motor yachts. But now the global crisis has imposed profound structural changes and significant evolutionary dynamics on the industry's competitive environment. The book aims to answer some of the industry's most hotly-debated issues, including: - What are the key features that led to this success? - What business models characterize Italian shipyards? - Which elements distinguish the Italian industry from its foreign competitors? Which future challenges must the industry overcome in order to maintain its leadership position?
Dante as Dramatist
The overwhelming concentration on questions of allegory in Dante studies, Franco Masciandaro contends, has come at the expense of considerations of the poem's literal dimension. And while the dramatic quality of the Divine Comedy is often recognized, few critics have made it the object of sustained inquiry. In Dante as Dramatist, Masciandaro refocuses on the "poetry of the theater" in the Commedia by examining Dante's interpretation of the myth of the Earthly Paradise as it is represented in a number of key episodes of Inferno and Purgatorio. His principal objective is twofold: to analyze Dante's dramaturgy, especially the creative force of the tragic rhythm that the scenes under scrutiny produce as they succeed one another; and to show how Dante stages the action of the pilgrim's journey to the Earthly Paradise as the fundamental conflict between the dream of a future, second innocence, which ignores the tact of evil, and the recovery of another innocence, analogous to that found in Eden before the Fall. Dante as Dramatist will be of unique interest not only to students and scholars of Dante but also to those who study dramatic forms in literature and theories of the tragic.

Dante's British Public
This is the first account of Dante's reception in English to address full chronological span of that process. Individual authors and periods have been studied before, but Dante's British Public takes a wider and longer view, using a selection of vivid and detailed case studies to record and place in context some of the wider conversations about and appropriations of Dante that developed in Britain across more than six centuries, as access to his work extended and diversified. Much of the evidence is based on previously unpublished material in (for example) letters, journals, annotations and inventories and is drawn from archives in the UK and across the world, from Milan to Mumbai and from B...
Il Praticante Medioevale: come sono sopravvissuto alla pratica forense
Quanto è dura la vita di un praticante? Quali esercizi zen deve praticare ogni giorno per gestire studio, lavoro, colleghi, ansie e incognite? Come trovare il coraggio per chiedere un compenso al proprio dominus, prepararsi per arrivare vivi al giorno dell’esame, e magari anche superarlo? È accompagnato da questi dubbi esistenziali che Il Praticante Medioevale affronta il suo viaggio dalla laurea, l’ultimo giorno spensierato, fino al Golgota dell’esame di avvocato, tra colloqui disastrosi, adempimenti burocratici, pratiche folli, orari massacranti e magre soddisfazioni. Una laurea in Storia del Diritto Medioevale in tasca e una buona dose di ingenuità: Il Praticante Medioevale si in...
