Il mondo di carta
Succedeva intorno al 1450, a Magonza. Toccò a Johannes Gensfleisch, detto Gutenberg, un geniale cinquantenne, il merito dell’invenzione dei caratteri tipografici mobili. Il debutto avvenne con un libro che resterà per sempre nella storia dell’editoria, una Bibbia stampata (tra il 1452 e il 1456) in due volumi. La stampa si diffuse rapidamente. Da allora all’era digitale il libro e il giornale hanno vissuto una straordinaria avventura. Il mondo di carta presenta il profilo di editori di libri, riviste e quotidiani, che hanno resistito alle mutazioni dei mercati e, passati attraverso ristrutturazioni societarie, sono arrivati fino ai nostri giorni.

The Book Jumper
Amy Lennox doesn't know quite what to expect when she and her mother pick up and leave Germany for Scotland, heading to her mother's childhood home of Lennox House on the island of Stormsay. Amy's grandmother, Lady Mairead, insists that Amy must read while she resides at Lennox House—but not in the usual way. It turns out that Amy is a book jumper, able to leap into a story and interact with the world inside. As thrilling as Amy's new power is, it also brings danger: someone is stealing from the books she visits, and that person may be after her life. Teaming up with fellow book jumper Will, Amy vows to get to the bottom of the thefts—at whatever cost.

Dario Fo
As a playwright and a performer, Dario Fo (1926-) is one of the most important figures in world theatre. By the 1980s some were proclaiming him the most widely performed living playwright. In 1997 his achievements were acknowledged with the Nobel Prize for literature. Based on his interpretations of the Marxist social writer Antonio Gramsci, Fo's politically motivated theatre strives to restore dignity to the popular culture of the masses. As part of this process, his theatre is structured on popular forms that challenge the preeminence of an authoritative text. In order to create a thematic frame, akin to certain oral traditions, Fo repeats themes and motifs that run throughout his theatre....

Religion, Children's Literature, and Modernity in Western Europe, 1750-2000
In this book some 25 scholars focus on the relationship between religion, children's literature and modernity in Western Europe since the Enlightenment (c. 1750). They examine various aspects of the phenomenon of children's literature, such as types of texts, age of readers, position of authors, design and illustration. The role of religion in giving meaning both in a substantive sense as well as through the institutionalised churches is studied from an interdenominational point of view (Judaism, Roman Catholicism, Protestantism and Anglicanism). Finally, the contribution of pedagogy and child psychology in the interaction between modernity, religion and children's literature is also discuss...
