Fútbol total
«El fútbol se juega principalmente con la cabeza, y así se ganan los partidos; los pies vienen mucho después» Arrigo Sacchi La historia del hombre que nunca jugó al fútbol de manera profesional, cuya habilidad para dirigir a equipos repletos de estrellas terminó por convertirle en el entrenador de mayor prestigio en el mundo entero en la década de los 80. Después de vencer dos veces consecutivas al todopoderoso AC Milan cuando era entrenador del modesto Parma, Silvio Berlusconi le eligió para liderar la revolución de su equipo. Los primeros resultados estuvieron muy alejados de lo prometido, pero en cuanto las estrellas del Milán entendieron los conceptos de Sacchi, conocimos a uno de los mejores equipos de la historia del fútbol mundial, consiguiendo títulos consecutivos en Europa e Italia.
The Poetics of the Margins
This volume contains a selection of the proceedings of a conference on European problems of identity titled Europe and its Others, which was held in St Andrews in July 2007. It looks at some of the histories and stories that connect the European margins to an imagined or imaginary centre of this complex continent as seen mostly from within, and with self-reflective insights from literary, socio-historical and cinematic perspectives. By following the marginal route created by the essays, the volume juxtaposes, as in a mosaic, a range of artistic discourses produced in many European languages. Each of these discourses highlights a different perception of belonging or not belonging to Europe; and each of these discourses brings to the fore in its respective society a fresh perspective on new European territories seen not as 'the other' but rather as contiguous tiles in a mosaic of idiosyncrasies. Lying one next to the other, these territories engage in dialogue poetically - harmoniously or dissonantly - in an attempt to create through their juxtaposition an enigmatic poetic discourse of the margins.
Giovannino Guareschi. Un umorista nel lager
'Non muoio neanche se mi ammazzano' scrive Giovannino Guareschi nel suo Diario clandestino, piccolo grande capolavoro composto nei lager nazisti e testo emblematico per comprendere la sensibilità e l'ironia di un autore che non rinunciò a regalare un sorriso neanche durante gli anni di prigionia. Sopravvissuto ai campi di concentramento, Guareschi è stato protagonista di una vita da romanzo che, come racconta con passione e partecipazione Guido Conti in questo volume, lo ha portato a essere vignettista satirico, fotografo, sceneggiatore, polemista politico, autore di saghe indimenticabili come quella di Don Camillo e Peppone, fino a diventare un protagonista assoluto della cultura italiana del Novecento. Quella di Guareschi è la storia di un uomo libero, capace di reagire anche alle sofferenze vissute con quello sguardo insieme ironico e commovente con cui ha raccontato in modo irripetibile la storia e i cambiamenti del nostro Paese.

Italians in Wales and their Cultural Representations, 1920s-2010s
Italian immigrants began to settle in Wales at the turn of the 19th century, opening hundreds of coffee shops, particularly in the South Wales Valleys. Despite this, such immigrants remain a largely unexplored case study in the history of Italian immigration to the UK. This book uses a variety of unexplored sources, and engages with the broader academic debate on migration, identity, and the trans-generational transmission of memory, to describe the emergence of Welsh-Italian narratives and the formation of a distinctive, yet complex, Welsh-Italian identity. It follows a chronological journey, moving from the interwar period, a time in which Italians in Wales were generally regarded as fully...

Strategic Culture and Italy's Military Behavior
Italy, although it considers itself to be a middle-sized power on par with France, the United Kingdom, and Germany, has been incapable of playing an international role comparable to theirs, instead keeping a low-profile foreign policy. This has not been due to any material constraints—Italy’s profile has remained consistently low, through economic times both good and bad—but rather to the country’s strategic culture, a mixture of realpolitik and pacifist tendencies. This book sets out to analyze the influence of Italy’s strategic culture on its foreign policy. It conducts an exploratory case-study to show if hypotheses generated by the strategic culture approach can shed some light...
