Piazzoni, Irene. "Le Collezioni del Palladio. "Quaderni" antifascisti nella Vicenza del 1943." ITALIA CONTEMPORANEA, no. 296 (August 2021): 9–37. http://dx.doi.org/10.3280/ic2021-296001.
Full textAbstract:
L'articolo ricostruisce la vicenda delle Collezioni del Palladio, che si snoda nel corso del 1943, a Vicenza, e ha per protagonisti alcuni intellettuali antifascisti, in testa Antonio Giuriolo, Mario Dal Pra e Licisco Magagnato, approdati l'anno precedente nelle fila del Partito d'Azione e dall'8 settembre impegnati nella Resistenza. Le due collane impostate si configurano come una cartina al tornasole dell'evoluzione filosofica e ideologica, tra contraddizioni e ripensamenti, vissuta negli anni della guerra da molti uomini di cultura, come punto di arrivo degli studi e degli interessi dei suoi animatori e momento seminale per recuperi e linee di ricerca che di lì a poco saranno propri di altre iniziative editoriali antifasciste, come tassello dell'articolato mosaico della pubblicistica azionista e come terreno di indagine per studiare le vie delle transizioni politiche, in forza delle mediazioni, delle contaminazioni e degli intrecci che il lavoro editoriale implica e favorisce.

Abstract In questo articolo vengono presentate, in tutti i dettagli operativi e concettuali, la progettazione e la realizzazione di un flusso editoriale completo, per la realizzazione di un’edizione digitale a stampa dell’inventario dei manoscritti di Palazzeschi.Gli autori, insieme ad alcuni collaboratori specialisti di varia provenienza (archivisti, informatici, grafici editoriali), hanno elaborato un flusso editoriale in grado di realizzare un’edizione a stampa in formato PDF di qualità dell’inventario del fondo manoscritti, partendo dall’estrazione dei dati archivistici dalla piattaforma di schedatura che rispetta gli standard internazionali. Tale lavoro si è svolto seguendo le linee guida ANAI e le scelte editoriali del Centro Studi “Aldo Palazzeschi”. Il flusso è stato progettato anche per favorire le attività preliminari di revisione e adattamento dei dati, nell’ottica di ottimizzarne le procedure e i tempi. Il flusso descritto è stato adottato per realizzare il primo volume della nuova collana ad accesso aperto del Centro Studi “Aldo Palazzeschi”; altre edizioni sono in lavorazione per dare vita ad opere quali cataloghi di mostre, carteggi e guide archivistiche. Tutti questi volumi si basano sui dati contenuti nella piattaforma di Carte d’autore online, ma ognuno di essi viene realizzato con l’impiego di un template InDesign adattato al progetto specifico, a partire da quello descritto in questo articolo. The aim of this paper is to show the project and development of an entire editorial workflow, by focusing on all its practical and conceptual details. The workflow under analysis has been conceived to produce a to-be-printed digital edition of the inventory of the “Fond of manuscripts of Palazzeschi”. Both authors, in collaboration with archivists, developers and graphic designers, have been setting up an editorial workflow able to produce a quality PDF, starting from data stored in a cataloguing platform that complies with international standards. This work was carried out following both ANAI guidelines and Centro Studi Aldo Palazzeschi’s editorial rules. This flow is also meant to support some preliminary tasks, like data review and proofreding, in order to optimize their processes and time concerns. This workflow has been adopted to publish the first volume of the new Open Access series by Centro Studi “Aldo Palazzeschi”. Some other editions are still in progress so as to deliver exhibition catalogues, epistolary exchanges and archival guides. All these volumes take their data from "Carte d’autore online" database and each of them requires a settled template, set up on the basis of the specific one in the present article.

Full textAbstract:
The power of editorials in moulding public opinion cannot be over-emphasized. Editorials have the potentials to change the attitudes of the public towards government and governmental policies. Therefore, employing newspaper texts like editorials will help offer background information and interpretation necessary to shape public opinion and attitudes. Readers turn to editorials for opinion, discussion, and interpretation covering those matters which are for the day, attracting attention. This study is anchored on the framing theory which was put forth by Erving Goffman in 1974. The researcher adopted the survey research design. The population of this study comprises of newspaper readers in tertiary institutions in Imo State. The tertiary institutions in Imo State that this study focused on include; Imo State University, Owerri, Federal University of Technology, Owerri, Federal Polytechnic, Nekede, Alvan Ikoku Federal Collage of Education, Owerri. The population of newspaper readers are not statistically known in these institutions. This means that the sample size of this study is 384. In order to determine the number of questionnaire to be administered to each of the selected tertiary institutions in Imo state, the non-proportionate and purposive sampling techniques were used. The questionnaire was the research instrument used for the data collection. The data collected from the respondents was analysed and interpreted by using the simple percentages tables and frequency analysis. Analysis of data collected from the field revealed that 162 respondents representing 42.6% said that their readership of editorials in newspapers was to a very large extent. Further analysis also revealed that at an average mean of 2.9, newspaper readers in tertiary institutions were of the view that they were being influenced by the content of editorials that they read from newspapers. Communicating result from data revealed that at an average mean of 2.7, newspaper readers in tertiary institutions in Imo State were of the view that the persuasive nature of editorials and the level of education of the person reading the editorials were the major factors responsible for the influence that editorial has in moulding peoples’ opinions. The researcher recommended that newspaper readers should continue to read editorials in order to form more informed opinions on topical issues.

Editorial Summay In her contribution »Collage-Based Research and Design«, Sarah Wehmeyer addresses the distinct differentiation between design-based and design-related forms of investigation in architecture. Hereby, she fosters reflexive design and research processes and practices as sources of »design-specific knowledge«. In this regard, she highlights applied artistic and superordinate theoretical aspects as well as discusses practical skills and scientific capacities inherent to the medium of collage as an architecture-specific tool for design and research. This contribution can be read as a precise and distinct examination of the collage as an artifact, media of design, knowledge creation, and communication, and as an alternative - artistic-reflexive - methodological approach to research in architecture.

Full textAbstract:
Tra i rapporti che Leonardo Sciascia instaurò con numerosi editori italiani, spicca quello con la Laterza, anche per essere legato alla pubblicazione del suo primo scritto in prosa, Le parrocchie di Regalpetra. Di tale rapporto, documentato dalla recente pubblicazione del carteggio tra Vito Laterza e Sciascia, il saggio ritaglia i contenuti relativi alla realizzazione editoriale dialettica dell'opera - in particolare di alcuni aspetti paratestuali della mise en page - attraverso l'esame della corrispondenza tra autore ed editore circa il titolo e l'illustrazione di copertina. Queste scelte furono fondamentali per connotare l'opera all'interno della collana I libri del tempo, innovativa nel panorama editoriale italiano degli anni 1950, che aveva bisogno di manifestare al lettore la coerenza delle opere ricevute e il suo carattere culturale.

Full textAbstract:
During the civil rights era, Mississippi was cloaked in the hateful embrace of the Closed Society, historian James Silver’s description of the white caste system that enforced segregation and promoted the subservient treatment of blacks. Surprisingly, challenges from Mississippi’s college basketball courts brought into question the validity of the Closed Society and its unwritten law, a gentleman’s agreement that prevented college teams in the Magnolia State from playing against integrated foes. Mississippi State University was at the forefront of the battle for equality in the state with the school’s successful college basketball program. From 1959 through 1963, the Maroons won four Southeastern Conference basketball championships and created a championship dynasty in the South’s preeminent college athletic conference. However, in all four title-winning seasons, the press feverishly debated the merits of an NCAA appearance for the Maroons, culminating in Mississippi State University’s participation in the integrated 1963 National Collegiate Athletic Association’s National Championship basketball tournament. Full Court Press examines news articles, editorials, and columns published in Mississippi’s newspapers during the eight-year existence of the gentleman’s agreement, the challenges posed by Mississippi State University, and the subsequent integration of college basketball within the state. While the majority of reporters opposed any effort to integrate athletics, a segment of sports journalists, led by the charismatic Jimmie McDowell of the Jackson State Times, emerged as bold and progressive advocates for equality. Full Court Press highlights an ideological metamorphosis within the press during the Civil Rights Movement, slowly transforming from an organ that minimized the rights of blacks to an industry that weighted the plight of blacks on equal footing with their white brethren.

Smyth, Ethel. Serenade in D Major for Orchestra. Edited by John L. Snyder. A-R Editions, 2021. http://dx.doi.org/10.31022/n084.
Full textAbstract:
Ethel Smyth's first orchestral work, the Serenade in D Major for Orchestra, was composed in 1889 (and possibly early 1890) and was premiered at a Crystal Palace concert on 26 April 1890. The work was received well by the audience and garnered positive notices in the press. This critical edition is based on a photocopy of the autograph manuscript, now in the Royal College of Music Library, with reference also to a fair copy of the score, now in the British Library. The extensive critical notes document the changes made by the composer, as well as editorial and performance suggestions made by both the composer and August Manns, who conducted the premiere performance. The present whereabouts of Ethel Smyth's autograph score for her Serenade in D Major are unknown. The facsimile supplement presents a photocopy of the score that was made, according to the label on the cover, in August 1993, and which is now in the Royal College of Music Library. The introduction to this edition includes a biographical sketch of August Manns, conductor of the premiere performance.

Bodin arrived in Toulouse c.1550, a brief account of the economy, social composition, and governmental institutions of which opens the chapter. There follow comments on its cultural life and identification of its leading citizenry, with remarks on the treatment of alleged religious dissidents by the city itself, and especially on discordant intellectual influences at work in the University, most notably the Law Faculty and the modes of teaching there. The chapter’s second part reviews Bodin’s translation and edition of the Greek poem Cynegetica by Oppian ‘of Cilicia’, assessing the quality of his editorial work, the extent to which allegations of plagiarism levelled against him were valid, and the nature and merits of his translation. The third section recounts contemporary wrangling over educational provision in Toulouse and examines the Oratio in which Bodin argued the case for humanist-style educational provision by means of a reconstituted college there.

Full textAbstract:
Isaac Mayer Wise (1819–1900), founder of the major institutions of Reform Judaism in America, was a man of his time — a pioneer in a pioneer’s world. When he came to America from his childhood Bohemia in 1846, he found fewer than 50,000 Jews and only two ordained rabbis. With his sense of mission and tireless energy, he set himself to tailoring the vehicle of Reform Judaism to meet the needs of the growing Jewish community. Wise strove for unity among American Jews, and for a college to train rabbis to serve them. The establishment of Hebrew Union College (1875) was the crowning achievement of his life. His quest for unity also led him to draw up an American Jewish prayer-book, Minhag America, to found the Central Conference of American Rabbis, and to edit two weeklies; their editorials, breathing fire and energy, were no less important in his quest for leadership. Here as elsewhere, it was his persistence that won him the war where his impetuosity lost him many battles. This book captures the vigour of Wise’s personality and the politics and concerns of contemporary Jewish life and leadership in America. The biography is a lively portrait of a rabbi whose singular efforts in many fields made him a pivotal figure in the naturalization of the Jew and Judaism in the New World.

Full textAbstract:
The security of the 2008-2009 period is assessed through editorials and annual security analysis. The narrative continues both ‘live’, as events are recounted through the editorials, and reflective. It looks at the consequences of state collapse, at the impact of enforcing a neoliberal system on Iraq, in terms of exploitation and economic insecurity, but also in terms of leading to deepening socio-economic divisions which have marginalised, alienated and angered millions of people, thus increasing instability and insecurity, nationally and regionally. Iraq’s economic transformation that has led to low standards of living, dismal economic and employment conditions, energy and food shortages, all of which plague Iraq today, is discussed within the context of power, leadership and hegemony. Causes and weapons of war, nation-building ‘military style’, community trauma, energy security and state vulnerability are also discussed within the framework of a discussion on threats, risks and impact.

Full textAbstract:
The second chapter treats the formal role played by satire in the drafts of The Waste Land, focusing in particular on T. S. Eliot’s parody of Alexander Pope’s Rape of the Lock in an early version of “The Fire Sermon.” In Eliot’s hands, satire becomes a means of responding to a specifically modernist crisis in aesthetic judgment: the seeming impossibility of distinguishing, after the collapse of traditional standards of beauty, popular charlatans from individuals of real talent. By placing The Waste Land under the sign of satire, Eliot attempts to distinguish his long poem from the wasteland of literary history that it recollects. The disappearance of satire from the final version of The Waste Land following the editorial suggestions of Pound, and Eliot’s replacement of his earlier satirical method by the so-called “mythical method” reflect satire’s failure to accomplish its task.

Full textAbstract:
Chapter two argues that Thomas Pringle’s experiences of exile and displacement informed his editorial contributions to The History of Mary Prince (1831), the first narrative of a black woman’s life published in Britain. While critics have looked at Pringle’s contributions to emphasize the intercultural aspects of the History and slave narratives more generally, few have attended to the transnational elements of Pringle’s own background. In 1820, the collapse of his family’s fortune forced Pringle and his family to leave Scotland and sail for the Cape Colony, where he led a party of Scottish immigrants to newly opened settlements along the frontier. Tensions with colonial officials forced Pringle to leave, and he resettled in London, where he became secretary of the Anti-Slavery Society and crossed paths with Prince. As a product of a Scottish diaspora, Pringle’s contribution manifests a partial identification with Prince, while providing its own distinct expression of dispossession..

Full textAbstract:
Robert Clifford Latham never wrote a monograph of his own, and published fewer than a dozen scholarly articles. But his life-enhancing work as editor of the definitive edition of the most vivid and revealing diary in the language will be remembered with affection and gratitude far beyond the world of learning, when the historical writings of most of his colleagues and contemporaries have been long forgotten. The six manuscript volumes of the diary of Samuel Pepys formed part of the magnificent library Pepys had bequeathed to his Alma Mater, Magdalene College Cambridge. Overlooked for more than a century, they were first published in a much abbreviated and bowdlerized form in 1825. Both the College and Bell and Sons, the publishers of the Diary, were acutely aware of the need for a new scholarly edition, but for the first half of the 20th century the project was dogged by amateurism and a marked absence of urgency on the part of those involved. Latham eventually undertook editorial oversight of the project as a whole. The success of the Pepys edition brought him many honours: the CBE in 1973, election to the British Academy in 1982, an honorary Fellowship of Magdalene in 1984, and of Royal Holloway in 1989.

Full textAbstract:
The new york times editorial page attributed the lack of regulation that resulted in the meltdown of the financial markets in 2008 to the “Bush administration’s magical belief that the market, with its invisible hand, works best when it is left alone to self regulate and self correct.” But what the editorial failed to mention is that the Bush administration’s $700 billion economic stimulus plan and the Obama administration’s $789 billion American Recovery and Reinvestment Act were both predicated on this magical belief. The fundamental assumption in these plans was that the meltdown occurred because the self-correcting and self-regulating dynamics associated with the invisible hand ceased to function properly. And the intent of the plans was to create market conditions in which these dynamics could begin to function properly with a massive infusion of capital generated by deficit spending. This meltdown began after the collapse of the markets for derivative contracts that allow buyers to hedge against economic gains or losses. In the parlance of mainstream economists, a derivative is an agreement between two parties that the value of something is determined by the price movement of something else, and hedging allows a buyer or seller to protect assets or incomes against future rises in prices. In derivatives markets, debt is used to generate surplus capital, and this surplus is used to borrow increasingly larger sums of money in a process economists call financial leveraging. Traditional derivative trading was in commodity-related futures contracts, and the amount of debt that could be used as financial leverage was highly regulated. In these markets, buyers could hedge against unpredictable changes in the prices of real assets, such as wheat or cotton, and each commodity was traded separately. But this situation changed dramatically after December 2000, when the U.S. Congress banned the regulation of derivatives by passing the Commodity Futures Modernization Act. The rationale for passing this bill, which was largely written by representatives of the investment banks that would later make enormous profits in derivatives trading, appealed to two assumptions in neoclassical economic theory.

E-mail: ander.caballero@ehu.eus Keywords (3-5): Eusa; Pamplona; Ensanche; Sitte; Propileos. Conference topics: City transformations.It is inevitable to be disappointed when we consciously compare today’s city with yesterday’s. Territorial occupancy was an arduous task which confronted man and nature. It was a collective act, the cultural manifestation of a society that aspired to artistically represent itself in the cities it built, both in buildings and public spaces. The city of the past, so conceived, successfully raised through time, and even today we can appreciate, in the human affection it brings about, the plastic value of its buildings and the ambient quality of its public spaces. Currently the contemporary city is just incapable of meeting a profound spiritual demand if it does not pursues a practical goal. In the Ensanche, one of its most renowned examples, the idea of the city imposes a restriction to the artistic or monumental value of the historic city in favour of a technical efficiency that facilitates the economic and administrative management of the new city. The unidentified reticular mesh so characteristic of the urban morphology of the Ensanche evinces the distortion of the hippodamian model which in past ages and also throughout time probed its validity to provide magnificent examples of cities thought and built also from artistic principles. In the late example of the 2nd Ensanche of Pamplona, we attend to the solitary labour of an architect such as Victor Eusa Razquin, who knew how to transform with his buildings the “technical” uniformity of the Ensanche by transforming, qualifying and enriching it with the incrustation of architectural episodes of elevated artistic value.

Full textAbstract:
In recent years much has been written and exhibited regarding Lina Bo Bardi, the Italian/Brazilian architect (1914-1992). This paper aims to look at the phenomenon of cultural displacement and the dissemination of her design thinking as a major female figure in a male dominated profession. This investigation is distinguished from others in that it addresses the importance of regional and cultural influences that formed Lina’s design philosophy in her early years in Italy. Cultural displacement has long played a significant role in the creative process for artists. Often major innovators in literature are immigrants as elements of strangeness, distance, and alienation all contribute to their creativity. The premise is that critical distance is paramount for reflection as a change of context unfolds unforeseen possibilities. Displacement was a consistent element throughout the trajectory of Lina’s architectural career as she moved from Rome to Milan, from Milan to Sao Paolo from Sao Paolo to Bahia and back to Sao Paolo. Viewing this form of detachment and dislocation permits insight into her career and body of work as displacement mediates the paradoxical relationship between time and space. The paper will examine three distinct periods in her career. The first period is set in Rome, where she assimilated the city, showed artistic aptitude and spent her university years studying under Piacentiniand Giovannoni. The second period is set in Milan, where she developed impressive editorial and layout skills in publications work with Gio Ponti and BrunoZevi. and was influenced by Antonio Gramsci’s writings. The third is set in Brazil, where she builds and evolves as an architect via what she absorbed in Rome, wrote in Milan, and finally realized in Brazil. After Italy’s collapse in WWII Lina writes, draws, edits, critiques the plight of the Italians in need of better housing and circumstances. She leaves Milan with her new husband, PM Bardi (a prominent journalist, art critic) for Brazil. In Sao Paolo she absorbs the optimism and positive direction of Brazil. Her early design work in Brazil echoes European modernism, but when she travels to Bahia and becomes aware of the social conditions, she draws from her Italian experiences of and ideas of transforming lives through craft. Her architectural projects become directly responsive to the culture of Bahia and the politics of poverty. Lina’s design thinking evolves and parallels George Kubler’s study, The Shape of Time, and the history of man-made objects by bridging the divide between art and material culture.
