Built Heritage in post-Disaster Scenarios
It is assumed that the impact of natural and man-made hazards on society in terms of damage cannot be avoided. To reduce potential disaster levels and to assess which policies have had a positive outcome, a careful comparison should take place on the procedures implemented in the management of crises. The experiences with the earthquakes in the Pianura Padana area and central regions of Italy in the last ten years have been incorporated in the 'After the Damages' advanced training project. This project aims to showcase recent innovations and advancements in post-disaster management, so as to take a more proactive role in post-disaster management, and to respond more effectively when disaster...

The first part of Volume 14 of the Yearbook presents ten essays concerned with Futurism in Italy, Russia, Ukraine, Czechoslovakia, Romania and Germany, and two focusing on dance and typography. Among other things, this publication provides analysis of the futurist manifestos from late 1910 and 1911 and Velimir Khlebnikov’s futurist essays, as well as the networks of Futurism in Odessa. In the second part, a section on Caricatures and Satires of Futurism in the Contemporary Press examines five humorous images from five countries, in which the movement and its leader were lampooned. This section is followed by nine reviews of recent exhibitions, conferences and publications, and an annual bibliography with details of 128 new books on Futurism.

This volume explores the fraught relationship between Futurism and the Sacred. Like many fin-de-siècle intellectuals, the Futurists were fascinated by various forms of esotericism such as theosophy and spiritualism and saw art as a privileged means to access states of being beyond the surface of the mundane world. At the same time, they viewed with suspicion organized religions as social institutions hindering modernization and ironically used their symbols. In Italy, the theorization of "Futurist Sacred Art" in the 1930s began a new period of dialogue between Futurism and the Catholic Church. The essays in the volume span the history of Futurism from 1909 to 1944 and consider its different configurations across different disciplines and geographical locations, from Polish and Spanish literature to Italian art and American music.

Drawing After Architecture
Why did early modern architects continue copying drawings long after the invention of print should have made such copying obsolete? Carolyn Yerkes answers that question in a fresh investigation into the status of architectural drawing in the 16th and 17th centuries. Drawing after Architecture: Renaissance Drawings and their Reception investigates the status of architectural drawing after the invention of print, and explores a vast group of 16th and 17th century manuscripts and collections of drawings that are each part of a larger network of copies. Made by French and Italian draftsmen who studied Roman monuments, the drawings contain information about the buildings - buildings that include ...
Siciliana
La forza di queste pagine, che compongono il ritratto a figura intera di una protagonista della grande stagione della lotta alla mafia – intesa essenzialmente come lotta per smascherare il legame profondo in Italia tra criminalità e potere; mafia, massoneria, servizi deviati e destra eversiva – sta nella loro capacità di offrire al lettore occhi per ripercorrere oltre quaranta anni tragici e straordinari. Sono gli anni di Chinnici e Caponnetto, di Falcone e Borsellino, del pool antimafia e del palazzo dei veleni di Palermo, dei processi a carico di protagonisti della politica, del caso Luigi Ilardo, della caccia ai grandi boss e delle azioni che per troppo tempo ne hanno impedito la ca...

DNA Synthesis
This book represents the proceedings of the NATO Advanced Study Institute held in Santa Flavia, Sicily from the 20 - 29th June, 1977. In addition to the review talks given by the Lecturers at the Institute it proved feasible for other topics to be splendidly reviewed. This has led to a much wider subject coverage than would otherwise have been possible. The discussion sessions which followed these review talks were extremely valuable and almost all the participants played an active role. Essentially all of the verbal contributions presented at this ASI were subsequently put into written format, which is why these proceedings are so extensive. ~hey do, however, provide an up-to-date summary o...
O Par Perfeito: Facetas da Escolha Amorosa
A busca do par perfeito ronda as relações amorosas. Um casal se forma por um movimento de escolha mútua e congruente permeada por motivações conscientes e inconscientes em que se entrelaçam duas individualidades. O eixo norteador deste estudo foi a busca da compreensão de como se dá a escolha amorosa sob a ótica da Psicologia Analítica. De modo geral, no senso comum, as pessoas acreditam que essa escolha é sempre muito consciente. No entanto o processo é muito mais complexo. O percurso dessa escolha envolve desde reconhecer o(a) futuro(a) parceiro(a) à detecção dos mecanismos que permitem o encontro e a manutenção do vínculo e sua evolução. Por meio de uma abordagem combi...
