You Are Gonna Hear Me Roar
Sometimes, in order to not succumb, one must be able to change their perception of oneself. When life disrupts your plans and erases your certainties, it forces you to choose who you want to be, or who you want to become. Since she was a child, her nickname was "LoGattina" (The Kitten), but one day Stefania, left alone with three young children and without a penny, realizes that the meek and defenseless figure that everyone saw would have to transform into a lioness capable of taking care of her cubs, with courage and determination. She has always walked with her head held high, but at a certain point, life asked her for something more a different kind of pride, that relentlessness necessary...
The Amulet
"The Amulet" is a historical novel written by Hendrik Conscience, a Belgian author. The book, originally titled "Het Goudland" in Dutch, was first published in 1837. It is considered one of Conscience's most famous works and an important piece of Flemish literature. "The Amulet" is set against the backdrop of the Dutch Revolt in the 16th century. The story revolves around the protagonist, Prosper, and his involvement in the struggles and conflicts of the time. The amulet of the title holds significance in the narrative. Hendrik Conscience is widely regarded as a pioneer of Dutch-language literature in Belgium, and "The Amulet" is celebrated for its contribution to the Flemish literary movement. The novel reflects Conscience's passion for national identity and historical themes. For readers interested in Flemish literature, historical novels, and the cultural context of Belgium in the 19th century, "The Amulet" by Hendrik Conscience is a classic work worth exploring.
Vespa
Auto a due ruote del primo dopoguerra, bandiera della rivoluzione giovanile, acclamato simbolo di stile in equilibrio sulla tradizione. La Vespa è qualcosa di più che lo scooter più venduto nel mondo, o un significativo simbolo del design italiano: è un irripetibile fenomeno di costume che accompagna la nascita del Paese dal 1946 ad oggi. La storia di questo magico "tappeto volante" in Italia e nel mondo e l'esame dettagliato di numerosi modelli sono accompagnati da splendide fotografie originali. Edizione in lingua inglese.
The Villa Farnesina
The frescoes of Peruzzi, Raphael and Sodoma still dazzle visitors to the Villa Farnesina, but they survive in a stripped-down environment bereft of its landscape, sealed so it cannot breathe. Turner takes you outside that box, restoring these canonical images to their original context, when each element joined in a productive conversation. He is the first to reconstruct the architect-painter Peruzzi's original, well-proportioned, well-appointed building and to re-visualize his lost façade decoration‒erotic scenes and mythological figures who make it come alive and soar upward. More comprehensively than any previous scholar, he reintegrates painting, sculpture, architecture, garden design, topographical prints and drawings, archaeological discoveries and literature from the brilliant circle around the patron Agostino Chigi, the powerful banker who 'loved all virtuosi' and commissioned his villa-palazzo from the best talents in multiple arts. It can now be understood as a Palace of Venus, celebrating aesthetic, social and erotic pleasure.
Biodiversity in Enclosed Seas and Artificial Marine Habitats
The main themes of the Symposium were biodiversity in enclosed and semi-enclosed seas and artificial habitats, and the restoration of degraded systems. These themes are highly relevant today. The papers dealing with the first theme represent current research and concerns about marine biodiversity in enclosed seas. The papers in the second theme represent a synthesis of up-to-date knowledge on artificial habitats.
Houses. Architecture and Interiors - Achievements
Simplicity and order are the psychological and aesthetic features that Stefano Dorata seeks in architecture and when he is designing his projects. His journey is a long-standing one of research during which his creative language has been refined and enriched and become more precise in the sense that it has abandoned eclecticism in favour of careful blending of styles, but all without ever repudiating the principles of classicism and the elements constituting it. When looking at the twenty-two homes splendidly illustrated in this book — from those in cities and by the sea to those in the countryside and mountains — one becomes aware, on the one hand, that the use of the golden section, sy...
