"The work of the great French painter Nicolas Poussin (15941665) is most often associated with classically inspired settings and figures depicting solemn scenes from mythology or the Bible. Yet he also created some of the most influential landscapes in Western art, endowing them with a poetic quality that has been admired by artists as different as Constable, Turner, and Ce;zanne. As the British critic William Hazlitt noted in 1844, 'This great and learned man might be said to see nature through the glass of time'. This beautiful catalogue presents the first in-depth examination of Poussin's landscapes. Featured here are more than 40 paintings, ranging from the artist's early Venetian-inspired pastorals to his grandly structured and austere works, designed as metaphors or allegories for the processes of nature. Also included are approximately 60 drawings and essays by internationally renowned scholars who examine the painter's visual, literary, and philosophical influences as well as his relationships with his patrons and his place in the art-historical canon."--Publisher description.

La pubblicazione è stata l’occasione per attivare un dibattito intern...
The widely recognized “Dreamer narrative” celebrates the educational and economic achievements of undocumented youth to justify a path to citizenship. While a well-intentioned, strategic tactic to garner political support of undocumented youth, it has promoted the idea that access to citizenship and rights should be granted only to a select group of “deserving” immigrants. The contributors to We Are Not Dreamers—themselves currently or formerly undocumented—poignantly counter the Dreamer narrative by grappling with the nuances of undocumented life in this country. Theorizing those excluded from the Dreamer category—academically struggling students, transgender activists, and qu...

Pour toute une génération d’enfants, le divorce ou la séparation des parents se traduit souvent, dans les faits, par la relégation du père à un rôle secondaire, quand ce n’est pas son éviction complète de presque tous les domaines. Pourquoi ? Quelles sont les raisons historiques, sociales ou juridiques qui, dans notre pays, font qu’un enfant sur trois environ ne voit plus son père après une rupture ? Que dit la loi et que peut le droit ? Plus largement, que sait-on de l’impact de la séparation sur le développement de tous les enfants qui la subissent ? Forts de leur expérience respective, s’appuyant sur les études les plus récentes sur le sujet, Jean Le Camus et ...
