Materan Contradictions
Shaped by encrusted layers of development spanning millennia, the southern Italian city of Matera is the ultimate palimpsest. Known as the Sassi, the majority of the ancient city is composed of thousands of structures carved into a limestone cliff and clinging to its walls. The resultant menagerie of forms possesses a surprising visual uniformity and an ineffable allure. Conversely, in the 1950s Matera also served as a crucible for Italian postwar urban and architectural theory, witnessed by the Neorealist, modernist expansion of the city that developed in aversion to the Sassi. In another about-face, the previously disparaged cave city has now been recast as a major tourist destination, UNE...

Un percorso di formazione per insegnanti da cui emerge come la matematica sia cosa viva, che cambia nel tempo, frutto dei luoghi e del contesto culturale. Dall’insegnamento di Emma Castelnuovo i laboratori, rivolti agli insegnanti di diversi gradi scolastici, su temi della didattica della matematica e dell’astronomia, si basano su premesse valide a diverse età: entrare nella storia delle discipline, inquadrare l’oggetto di indagine in un percorso di tipo storico, per far cogliere quanto in una determinata epoca già si conosceva (o non si conosceva) su che cosa ci si interrogava, e quanto un’epoca successiva abbia talvolta spazzato via intuizioni feconde e conoscenze sullo stesso ar...

The Gorehound's Guide to Splatter Films of the 1960s and 1970s
For the uninitiated the author has obligingly supplied a definition for the slasher/splatter film: "Any motion picture which contains scenes of extreme violence in graphic and grisly detail...." For those film viewers who think this is a good thing and are more likely to select The Texas Chainsaw Massacre than The Remains of the Day, or for those who are not quite sure but are nevertheless drawn to the phantasmagoric, or for those horrified by gratuitous violence and blood for blood's sake but are researching this filmic phenomenon, this reference book provides all the gory details. From At Midnight I'll Take Your Soul Away to Zombie 2: The Dead Are Among Us, this book is an exhaustive study of the splatter films of the 1960s and 1970s. After a history of the development of the genre, the main meat of the book is a filmography. Each entry includes extensive credits, alternate names and foreign release titles; availability of the film on videocassette; availability of soundtracks and film novelization; and reviews. Extensive cross-referencing is also included.
