Politically Red
How reading and writing are collective acts of political pedagogy, and why the struggle for change must begin at the level of the sentence. “Reading is class struggle,” writes Bertolt Brecht. Politically Red contextualizes contemporary demands for social and racial justice by exploring the shifting relations between politics and literacy. Through a series of creative readings of Karl Marx, Rosa Luxemburg, Walter Benjamin, W. E. B. Du Bois, Fredric Jameson, and others, it casts light on history as an accumulation of violence and, in doing so, suggests that it can become a crucial resource for confronting the present insurgence of inequality, racism, and fascism. Reading between the lines,...

Curzio Malaparte
Curzio Malaparte (1898-1957) unter Zeitgenossen als Exzentriker bekannt, Schriftsteller, Journalist und skandalumwitterter Individualist und Opportunist aus Prato, Toskana, ist auch der Nachwelt in ambivalenter Erinnerung geblieben. Und das nicht nur durch sein literarisches Werk, sondern auch durch seine schillernde Persönlichkeit, seine manière de vivre und seinen politischen Wankelmut. Hierzulande lange in Vergessenheit geraten, erlebt er seit den 1990er Jahren ein Comeback in Deutschland. Sabine Witt gibt einen Überblick über Malapartes Vita und analysiert sein Erzählwerk. Im Mittelpunkt ihrer Analyse steht die unnachahmliche Erzählweise des Autors sowie deren Besonderheiten im Umgang des omnipräsenten Ich-Erzählers mit der der historischen Wirklichkeit.

The Routledge Companion to Italian Fascist Architecture
Today, nearly a century after the National Fascist Party came to power in Italy, questions about the built legacy of the regime provoke polemics among architects and scholars. Mussolini’s government constructed thousands of new buildings across the Italian Peninsula and islands and in colonial territories. From hospitals, post offices and stadia to housing, summer camps, Fascist Party Headquarters, ceremonial spaces, roads, railways and bridges, the physical traces of the regime have a presence in nearly every Italian town. The Routledge Companion to Italian Fascist Architecture investigates what has become of the architectural and urban projects of Italian fascism, how sites have been tra...
Lo spazio universale di Mies
«Noi non ammettiamo che la funzione determini il piano, concepiamo uno spazio che accolga tutte le funzioni», scrive Mies. Un'idea di spazio flessibile, non predeterminabile negli usi, uno spazio oggi diremmo evenemenziale, universale perché in grado di rappresentare valori condivisi e intellegibili. Tale spazio sciolto da ogni legame, absolūtus, si traduce nelle Aule di Mies in un grande interno indiviso nel quale proporzioni e assetti costruttivi si rendono sinteticamente compresenti a manifestare il carattere, il tema e la ragione che lo hanno generato.
Patrimoni e Siti UNESCO
I congressi a scadenza periodica sono il termometro per misurare lo stato di salute di una Società Scientifica; infatti il confronto sistematico della produzione scientifica è l'unico parametro che permette di accertare l'evolversi della conoscenza. L'UID, dopo alcuni anni di torpore, ha mostrato notevoli segni di vitalità nel XXXIV Convegno del 2012 svoltosi a Roma; in quella occasione, infatti, furono presentate oltre sessanta relazioni, di cui almeno un terzo di buon livello. Il XXXV Convegno, dal titolo Patrimoni e siti UNESCO. Memoria, Misura e Armonia del quale mi accingo a presentare gli Atti, ha evidenziato una crescita esponenziale dei contributi, tanto che sono pervenute circa c...
A Place in the Sun
"This impressive volume succeeds in bringing Italian colonialism into the space of today’s most important debates regarding colonialism and multiculturalism."—Graziela Parati, author of Mediterranean Crossroads "A significant collection that really has no equal to date. The essays in this volume investigate profoundly the relationship between Italian colonialism and Italian society, past and present."—Anthony Tamburri, author of A Semiotic of Rereading
Ludwig Mies Van Der Rohe
The Mies van Der Rohe building is part of the late production of the German architect but is the one that encloses all the essence of his research. A building where the architectural type of "museum" perfectly fits the type of the "temple." The result is a quiet sacred place able to express itself beyond time. The most interesting thing, in fact, is that this is the Mies' building around which most things have happened. From the IBA building by James Stirling to the monumental Potsdammer Platz site all things have changed around it. But, if you visit now Berlin, you will find that the Neue Nationalgalerie site keeps his holyness alive. This book show a clean architectural and proportional graphic analysis of the museum through a huge number of sketches, 3d prospective and axonometric views and a complete reconstruction of the process that lead Mies to build this wonderful building.
