MCM – Milan, Capital of the Modern
MCM - Milano Capital of the Modern, edited by Lorenzo Degli Esposti, is made up of texts and images from over 300 contributors from Europe and the US, across three generations, involved in the activities of the Padiglione Architettura in EXPO Belle Arti of Vittorio Sgarbi, a programme by the Regione Lombardia hosted in the Grattacielo Pirelli during the EXPO 2015. They investigate the relationships between modern architecture, the city of Milan (Razionalismo, reconstruction, Tendenza, Radical Design, up to current research) and the city in general, between single and specific works and the large scale of the urban territory, in the contradictions between architecture autonomy and its dependence on specific place and historical time. The idea of MCM is that each capital of the Modern brings an original version of modernity in architecture: in the specific Milanese case, this kind of Modern is characterized by the simultaneous presence of abstract, systematic and syntactic features and an ontological conception of both buildings and architectural and urban voids.

The Cultural Wealth of Nations
Symbolic resources affect social, cultural, and economic development. The value of being "Made in America" or "Made in Italy," for example, depends not only on the material advantages each place offers but also on the symbolic resources embedded in those places of production. Drawing on case studies that range from the vineyards of South Africa and the textiles of Thailand to the Mundo Maya in Latin America and tourist destinations in Tuscany, this volume examines the various forms that cultural wealth takes, the processes involved in its construction, and the ways it is deployed. Leading scholars from a range of disciplinary backgrounds examine how symbolic resources and cultural understandings help firms and regions develop. Through a thoughtful analysis of current- day cases, as well as historical developments, The Cultural Wealth of Nations offers an exciting new alternative to standard economic explanations about the wealth and poverty of nations.
Les Impératrices romaines
Marâtres, empoisonneuses, sphynges impudiques assoiffées de pouvoir … Les Anciens et de nombreux auteurs modernes n’ont pas de mots assez durs pour qualifier les impératrices romaines. Et pourtant, à l’exception de trois d’entre elles - Agrippine, Messaline, Poppée - dont la réputation sulfureuse a traversé les siècles, la plupart de nos contemporains seraient incapables de citer le nom et encore moins d’évoquer la vie de l’une des vingt-quatre autres impératrices du Haut-Empire. Qui connaît en effet Statilia Messalina, Crispina ou Aquila Severa, épouses « oubliées » des célèbres empereurs Néron, Commode ou Élagabal ? Ce livre propose de restituer le contexte h...
