Karma express
È il 1970 e Daria, diciottenne, saltella felice per casa mostrando a tutti l'anello regalatole da Roger, un giovane promettente dalla carriera bene avviata. Daria sogna l'amore e la sua famiglia - una classica famiglia upper class americana - corona quel sogno con una magnifica festa di fidanzamento. Ma, alla vigilia delle nozze, la vecchia e lungimirante nonna incoraggia Daria a essere più curiosa, a viaggiare e a interrogarsi prima di indirizzare la sua vita verso la scelta più scontata del matrimonio. Daria convince dunque il suo Roger a intraprendere un viaggio in India sul mitico Karma Express, lo sgangherato pullman che porterà i due giovani, tanto eleganti quanto impreparati, da I...
Children of Hollywood
Living in the shadow of a famous parent can have powerful effects, from professional opportunities to pressure so great it leads to suicide. Some children of stars are proud of their roots while others live in secrecy. This is a rare look into the private lives of the children (and, in a few cases, grandchildren) of these classic Hollywood icons, revealing the stresses and inspirations of living with great performers who may or may not have been great parents. Some movie stars protected their offspring, but others used them as publicity props or even made them into rivals. Despite their unusual upbringing, some of the children succeeded in the movies or elsewhere, but many never lived up to ...

Ti prendo per mano
"Quando avrò di nuovo una vita piena di gente, di progetti da realizzare e di luoghi da visitare, sono sicura che mi ricorderò di questo periodo tranquillo nel deserto ad assistere mia madre, il nostro stare insieme, in silenzio, in queste mattinate tranquille e soleggiate.

Sounds, Societies, Significations
This edited book covers many topics in musicological literature, gathering various approaches to music studies that encapsulate the vivid relation music has to society. It focusses on repertoires and geographical areas that have not previously been well frequented in musicology. As readers will see, music has many roles to play in society. Music can be a generator of social phenomena, or a result of them; it can enhance or activate social actions, or simply co-habit with them. Above all, music has a stable position within society, in that it actively participates in it. Music can either describe or prescribe social aspects; musicians may have a certain position/role in society (e.g., the “...
Italian Clitics
After reviewing, from a grammaticalization perspective, the main stages in the evolution of Italian object clitic pronouns, the book discusses the distinctive morphosyntactic, semantic, and pragmatic features of Italian clitics. In particular, the book offers an original study of the most common examples of so-called verbi procomplementari, verbs which are characterized by the incorporation of clitics that no longer function as pronouns, and which are widely used in present-day Italian. Their emergence involves both grammaticalization of the clitic pronoun into an obligatory element, and lexicalization of the verb+clitic sequence. This study is essentially descriptive and maximally data-driv...
