Staging the Pastoral
"Staging the Pastoral concentrates on two performances of Torquato Tasso's pastoral play Aminta that were separated by over fifty years (1574 and 1628). Through micro-reconstructions of these stagings, it shows how the birth of modern Western theater as we know it was far less linear and simple than subsequent teleological narratives have lead us to believe. This study is based on extensive archival research and offers to English-speaking readers many previously non-translated documents. It will be of interest to students and scholars of theater and performance, early modern cultural history, Italian literature, and comparative literature."--BOOK JACKET.
Abu Tbeirah Excavations I. Area 1
This book presents the results of the archaeological activities and specialistic studies carried out at the site of Abu Tbeirah (Nasiriyah, Province of Dhi Qar, southern Iraq) by the Iraqi-Italian joint mission of the Iraqi State Board of Antiquities and Heritage and of Sapienza, led by F. D’Agostino and L. Romano (Dipartimento – Istituto Italiano di Studi Orientali). In the volume the accomplishments of the first seven campaigns (2011-2016) are introduced together with an assessment of the palaeo-environment and landscape surrounding the site. After an introduction to the reasons that led to start the archaeological activities in Abu Tbeirah, written by HE Dr A. Al-Hamdani, Minister of Culture of the Republic of Iraq, the diggings in the south-eastern Area 1 are presented (the cemetery and the other activities identified immediately under the top-soil and the last phase of Building A). A preliminary assessment on the Early-Dynastic III/Akkadian Transition pottery horizon (2450-2150 BC) is presented as well. At the same time, the multifaceted analyses and studies, carried out on Abu Tbeirah’s site and findings, are included in the volume.

Anarchism and Syndicalism in the Colonial and Postcolonial World, 1870-1940
Narratives of anarchist and syndicalist history during the era of the first globalization and imperialism (1870-1930) have overwhelmingly been constructed around a Western European tradition centered on discrete national cases. This parochial perspective typically ignores transnational connections and the contemporaneous existence of large and influential libertarian movements in Africa, Asia, Latin America, and Eastern Europe. Yet anarchism and syndicalism, from their very inception at the First International, were conceived and developed as international movements. By focusing on the neglected cases of the colonial and postcolonial world, this volume underscores the worldwide dimension of ...
