Book Synopsis Italian Historical Rural Landscapes by : Mauro Agnoletti
Download or read book Italian Historical Rural Landscapes written by Mauro Agnoletti and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-09 with total page 548 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sustainable development and rural policies have pursued strategies where farming has been often regarded as a factor deteriorating the ecosystem. But the current economic, social and environmental problems of the Earth probably call for examples of a positive integration between human society and nature. This research work presents more than a hundred case studies where the historical relationships between man and nature have generated, not deterioration, but cultural, environmental, social and economic values. The results show that is not only the economic face of globalization that is negatively affecting the landscape, but also inappropriate environmental policies. The CBD-UNESCO program on biocultural diversity, the FAO Globally Important Agricultural Heritage Systems and several projects of the International Union of Forest Research Organizations, as well as European rural policies acknowledge the importance of cultural values associated to landscape. This research intends to support these efforts.
Book Synopsis Women, Nationalism, and Social Networks in the Habsburg Monarchy, 1848–1918 by : Marta Verginella
Download or read book Women, Nationalism, and Social Networks in the Habsburg Monarchy, 1848–1918 written by Marta Verginella and published by Purdue University Press. This book was released on 2023-12-15 with total page 197 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Women, Nationalism, and Social Networks in the Habsburg Monarchy, 1848–1918 focuses on the lives of women in Southeastern Europe during the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, exploring the intersection of gender and nationalism. By looking at a wide range of sources and employing rich historiography, this collection investigates the currents of women’s emancipatory efforts in a climate of conflicting assumptions relating to nationhood and nationalization. This book sheds light on a time when both women and nations were working to assert themselves, and how women promoted the national cause in an attempt to assume stronger roles in the public sphere. The volume studies areas that were nationally mixed and linguistically plural, thus pointing to the dynamic role of peripheries and pluralism affecting women’s approaches to and experience of nationalization. These essays speak to women’s agency as individuals and members of the social networks, and their roles in cultural, ethnic, and political movements in pluralistic societies of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, thereby arguing that they “enacted” borders and were not simply acted on by them, while also elucidating the ways they transgress the borders.

Book Synopsis Virginio Gayda, the Yugoslav Question and the Italian Irredenta by : Anthony Di Iorio
Download or read book Virginio Gayda, the Yugoslav Question and the Italian Irredenta written by Anthony Di Iorio and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2023-11-13 with total page 372 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a study of the early writings of Virginio Gayda (1885-1944), a talented but amoral Italian journalist whose career spanned two world wars. A keen observer, prolific writer and propagandist during his stint as the newspaper La Stampa’s special correspondent in Habsburg Vienna, Gayda lent his considerable skills to promote an aggressive foreign policy. No one did more than he to poison relations between the Italian and Yugoslav peoples. His is the story of a respected journalist who chose an ultranationalist path to fascism and international fame. Not uninfluenced by rank careerism and material reward he forsook his roots to embrace the antisemitic “race” laws of 1938 and Italy’s disastrous partnership with Nazi Germany.
Book Synopsis Jewish Literatures and Cultures in Southeastern Europe by : Renate Hansen-Kokoruš
Download or read book Jewish Literatures and Cultures in Southeastern Europe written by Renate Hansen-Kokoruš and published by Böhlau Wien. This book was released on 2021-10-11 with total page 429 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The volume offers an overview of the diverse Jewish experiences in Southeastern Europe from the 19th to the 21st centuries, and the various forms and strategies of their representation in literature, the arts, historiography and philosophy. Southeastern Europe is characterized by a high degree of ethnical, religious and cultural diversity. Jews, whether Sephardim, Ashkenazim or Romaniots – settling there in different periods – experienced divergent life worlds which engendered rich cultural production. Though recent scholarly and popular interest in this heterogeneous region has grown impressively, Jewish cultural production is still an under-researched area. The volume offers an overview of the diverse Jewish experiences in Southeastern Europe from the 19th to the 21st centuries, and the various forms and strategies of their representation in literature, the arts, historiography and philosophy, thus creating a dialogue between Jewish studies, Balkan studies, and current literary and cultural theories.

Book Synopsis Succession Law, Practice and Society in Europe across the Centuries by : Maria Gigliola di Renzo Villata
Download or read book Succession Law, Practice and Society in Europe across the Centuries written by Maria Gigliola di Renzo Villata and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-03-19 with total page 652 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents a broad overview of succession law, encompassing aspects of family law, testamentary law and legal history. It examines society and legal practice in Europe from the Middle Ages to the present from both a legal and a sociological perspective. The contributing authors investigate various aspects of succession law that have not yet been thoroughly examined by legal historians, and in doing so they not only add to our knowledge of past succession law but also provide a valuable key to interpreting and understanding current European succession law. Readers can explore such issues as the importance of a father’s permission to marry in relation to disinheritance, as well as inheritance transactions and private, dynastic and cross-border successions. Further themes addressed by the expert contributors include women’s inheritance rights, the laws of succession for the prince in legal consulting, and succession in the Rota Romana’s jurisprudence.
Book Synopsis Il confine orientale by : Giorgio Federico Siboni
Download or read book Il confine orientale written by Giorgio Federico Siboni and published by Oltre edizioni. This book was released on 2012-01-31 with total page 173 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Il confine orientale può essere considerato come uno spazio in cui per secoli si sono intrecciate e sovrapposte molteplici frontiere, di natura politica, culturale, religiosa e infine nazionale. Un luogo non solo fisico, in quanto parte dell’Adriatico e in sostanza limine fra la penisola italiana e quella balcanica, ma anche cesura tra l’Europa occidentale e quella orientale in senso generico. Proprio in quanto superficie di rottura, il confine orientale rimane certamente un nodo caratteristico nella storia d’Italia. Collocato geograficamente dalle sponde del fiume Isonzo alla displuviale alpina orientale, racchiude il Carso (triestino e goriziano) e la penisola istriana sino a Fiume e al litorale dalmata con i suoi arcipelaghi di isole fino a Cattaro. In esatta sintonia con i numerosi contrasti confinari avvenuti in Europa fra la seconda metà del XIX secolo e la prima del XX, la storia del confine orientale italiano perdura come tentativo emblematico di fissare all’interno di una regione multiforme ed eterogenea per vicende e popoli una frontiera egemonica. Limite mutevole perché sempre fissato su termini ideologici e proprio per questo di perpetua ardua demarcazione. Nel più generale panorama storiografico sulla questione, il volume intende porsi quale strumento accessibile anche a un pubblico non specialistico interessato alle tematiche istriano-dalmate. Dalla pace di Campoformio ai fermenti irredentisti di fine Ottocento, dalle rivendicazioni seguite alla Grande guerra sino alla politica fascista e all’esodo giuliano, il saggio approfondisce lo scenario diplomatico internazionale con le sue implicazioni - prima e dopo - la Seconda guerra mondiale per seguire (grazie a una ricca messe di riferimenti bibliografici italiani e stranieri) l’evolversi delle contese per la definizione confinaria. L’autore considera i molti aspetti endogeni ed esogeni in costante azione nell’area considerata, giungendo all’epoca più recente, dopo la crisi della Jugoslavia, ed esaminando i rapporti con l’Unione europea, la cooperazione interstatale e la politica culturale in atto fra Italia, Slovenia e Croazia.

Book Synopsis Persuasion and Rhetoric by : Carlo Michelstaedter
Download or read book Persuasion and Rhetoric written by Carlo Michelstaedter and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2004-01-01 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Emerson and Thoreau are the most celebrated odd couple of nineteenth-century American literature. Appearing to play the roles of benign mentor and eager disciple, they can also be seen as bitter rivals: America's foremost literary statesman, protective of his reputation, and an ambitious and sometimes refractory protege. The truth, Joel Porte maintains, is that Emerson and Thoreau were complementary literary geniuses, mutually inspiring and inspired. In this book of essays, Porte focuses on Emerson and Thoreau as writers. He traces their individual achievements and their points of intersection, arguing that both men, starting from a shared belief in the importance of self-culture, produced a body of writing that helped move a decidedly provincial New England readership into the broader arena of international culture. It is a book that will appeal to all readers interested in the writings of Emerson and Thoreau.

Book Synopsis A City in Search of an Author by : Katia Pizzi
Download or read book A City in Search of an Author written by Katia Pizzi and published by A&C Black. This book was released on 2002-02-01 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Poised between the Mediterranean and the Mitteleuropa, crossroads of civilizations and seat of vibrant cultural and literary life, Trieste is now acknowledged as enjoying unrivalled cultural status amongst Italian cities. This volume, the first comprehensive study of Triestine literature in English, originally reassesses TriesteÆs literary identity, paying particular attention to the period between 1918 and 1954 when local writing became intensely aware of its local specificity and some of its central motifs came prominently to the fore. TriesteÆs singular border identity, mirrored in a variegated literary output, emerges here as laden with complexities and ambiguities, such as the controversial notion of triestinita, the ambiguous relation with nationalism, specifically in its Fascist inflection, and the anxieties generated by repeated re-definitions of the areaÆs historical borders.
