God on Trial
This novel is a study of the human condition and the role religions play in our existence. I do not see religions and faith to have any positive effect on humanity; in fact, the opposite is true. The teachings of the so-called holy books are fundamentally flawed and immoral in nature; hence, the writer ought be brought to justice. God incites his followers to murder, cause mayhem, hate, judge and cause the atrocities that humanity has been seeing up until today with Islamic terrorism. Since my childhood growing in a religiously fanatic country, Egypt, I have believed that someone had to stand up and question these centuries old beliefs. I did. And I did it well. The concept is presented in the following theme: Convinced that God is a negative force, tormenting the helpless human race, an ailing English professor becomes determined to put the deity on trial. But when he’s diagnosed with schizophrenia, he soon succumbs to the damning madness and brutally stabs and kills his wife. And in the deadly manhunt that ensues, he is ultimately shot dead by the police. This prompts his grieving sister to follow through his life’s mission to bring God to justice.

The Changing Role of the Interpreter
This volume provides a critical examination of quality in the interpreting profession by deconstructing the complex relationship between professional norms and ethical considerations in a variety of sociocultural contexts. Over the past two decades the profession has compelled scholars and practitioners to take into account numerous factors concerning the provision and fulfilment of interpreting. Building on ideas that began to take shape during an international conference on interpreter-mediated interactions, commemorating Miriam Shlesinger, held in Rome in 2013, the book explores some of these issues by looking at the notion of quality through interpreters’ self-awareness of norms at wor...

I RICORDI DELLA MIA NAPOLI
Non si ricordano i giorni, si ricordano gli attimi. Questo intenso aforisma di Cesare Pavese incornicia il volume di Mino Cucciniello, che descrive e racconta numerosi “attimi”, con l’indubbia capacità di riportare alla memoria del lettore non solo luoghi, ricorrenze e nomi, ma le atmosfere e i colori degli stessi.
