Amore perso nella vita e nei pensieri, ma ruotano e si alternano intorno al suo vivere nonno Mark persona poco socievole, spirito della natura. Sua figlia Maria ragazzina sensibile con dei strani poteri legati al lago. La zia Elisabetta donna vittima di sevizie famigliari che trova riscatto nella fuga e nell'amore. Darko uomo del mistero, dal fascino avventuriero, che cela sotto i suoi lunghi capelli un tumore che avanza lentamente ma inesorabile.

The Conservation and Presentation of Mosaics: At What Cost?

This handsome, abundantly illustrated volume provides a comprehensive record of the conference. The volume’s sixty-seven papers and posters, comprising contributions from more than one hundred leading experts in the field, reflect th...

The Routledge Handbook of Discourse and Disinformation

This handbook offers a comprehensive overview of research into discourses of disinformation, misinformation, post-truth, alternative facts, hate speech, conspiracy theories, and "fake news". Divided into two sections, it provides a detailed look at the methodological challenges and approaches for studying disinformation, along with a wide range of case studies covering everything from climate change denial to COVID-19 conspiracies. The studies address how discourses of disinformation are constructed and developed, what rhetorical and persuasive strategies they employ, how disinformation can be discerned from real news, and what steps we might take in order to create a more trustworthy news environment. Authored by leading experts from around the world, and showcasing the most up-to-date methodological approaches to the topic, the volume makes a significant contribution to current linguistic research on politics, and is an essential guide to the discourses of disinformation for advanced students and researchers of English language studies, linguistics, and media and communication studies.

How global workers, influencers, and activists develop tactics of algorithmic resistance by appropriating and repurposing the same algorithms that control our lives. Algorithms are all around us, permeating more and more aspects of our daily lives. While accounts of platform power tend to come across as bleak and monolithic, Algorithms of Resistance shows how people can resist algorithms across a variety of domains. Drawing from rich ethnographic materials and perspectives from both the Global North and South, authors Tiziano Bonini and Emiliano Treré explore how people appropriate and reconfigure algorithms to pursue their objectives in three domains of everyday life: gig work, cultural in...

Scimmie digitali

La Rete sta cambiando il nostro cervello e la nostra mente: ci stiamo impoverendo nell’ineluttabile passaggio dall’homo analogicus all’homo digitalis… O almeno questo è quanto vogliono farci credere alcuni guru autonominati. Gli Autori non sono affatto d’accordo. I nostri principi comunicativi e cognitivi restano gli stessi. Nel mondo dell’always on quello che vogliamo è comunicare con chi ha i nostri stessi interessi. Conoscere è potere: ma per poter conoscere occorre prima imparare a trovare le cose davvero importanti. Questo libro offre gli strumenti per capire come sfuggire ai cacciatori di attenzione che sono i predatori dell’era tecnologica.
