Extracts from the life of an artist, an athlete, a philosopher; a man occupied with the determined and instinctive research of beauty, justice, and of the deepest truth. A search that crosses several fields: from the purely artistic one to the sacred one, from the most ancient and remote times to our modern and contemporary world. An observer that, thanks to painting, manages to escape from the day-to-day banality and human mediocrity. A fascinating text that proves the redeeming power of art. Artist and teacher, Tiziano Bonanni is a painter, sculptor, and writer. Among the most relevant masters in Tuscany and one of the most representative Italian painters, he alternates his profession with the practice of judo and martial philosophy as a lifestyle, a “creed”, which generates creative thinking and excellency in a society that doesn’t wish to “be” anymore, but rather to own, in a compulsive and dishonorable way. Deeply connected to Florence’s history and culture, he’s an honorary member of the Accademia Medicea and Knight of the Ordine di Parte Guelfa.

A circular confrontation on identity as the value of diversity, from its historic roots to its transformations linked to processes of globalization, up to artificial intelligence where identity is reduced to pure alphanumerical codes. With the 500th anniversary of the death of Leonardo Da Vinci, the use of the golden ratio of 1.618 is a symbolic pretext of historical reference that has expanded over the centuries up to our own time in the mass anonymity of today, a cornerstone between human unpredictability and artificial intelligence, between the limitations of programmed perfection and the unlimited power of intuition always possessed by mankind. From the nuclear disaster of Chernobyl to t...
EVALITA 2023 is an initiative of AILC (Associazione Italiana di Linguistica Computazionale) and it is endorsed by the Italian Association for Artificial Intelligence (AIxIA) and the Italian Association for Speech Sciences (AISV). As in the previous editions, EVALITA 2023 is organized along a set of selected tasks, which provide participants with opportunities to discuss and explore both emerging and traditional areas of Natural Language Processing and Speech for Italian. The participation is encouraged for teams working both in academic institutions and industrial organizations.
Based on an analytical evaluation of both the weaknesses and strengths of the Italian political system, Italy in the European Union is the first book to offer a detailed and comprehensive description of Italy's contribution to European Union policy-making. The contributors to this volume systematically explore the role played by Italian institutional and noninstitutional actors in several decision-making processes. They show how Italian institutional actors define and promote national policy preferences that are compatible with those of the other European member states. However, the book functions on two levels: it is both a nuanced picture of Italy's role in the EU and a study of the EU as ...
Odours have become a priority concern for facility operators, engineers and urban planners who deal with waste and industrial treatment plants. The subjectivity of smell perception, its variability due to frequency and weather conditions, and the complex nature of the substances involved, has long hampered the regulation of odour emissions. This book provides a comprehensive framework for the assessment, measurement and monitoring of odour emissions, and covers: Odour characterization and exposure effects Instruments and methods for sampling and measurement Strategies for odour control Dispersion modelling for odour exposure assessment Odour regulations and policies Procedures for odour impact assessment Case studies: Wastewater treatment, composting, industrial and CAFO plants, and landfill Intended for researchers in environmental chemistry, environmental engineering, and civil engineering, this book is also an invaluable guide for industry professionals working in wastewater treatment, environmental and air analysis, and waste management.
