Download or read book Popular Politics in an Aristocratic Republic written by Maartje van Gelder and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-05-06 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Popular Politics in an Aristocratic Republic explores the different aspects of political actions and experiences in late medieval and early modern Venice. The book challenges the idea that the city of Venice knew no political conflict and social contestation during the medieval and early modern periods. By examining popular politics in Venice as a range of acts of contestation and of constructive popular political participation, it contributes to the broader debate about premodern politics. The volume begins in the late fourteenth century, when the demographical and social changes resulting from the Black Death facilitated popular challenges to the ruling class’s power, and finishes in the late eighteenth century, when the French invasion brought an end to the Venetian Republic. It innovates Venetian studies by considering how ordinary Venetians were involved in politics, and how popular politics and contestation manifested themselves in this densely populated and diverse city. Together the chapters propose a more nuanced notion of political interactions and highlight the role that ordinary people played in shaping the city’s political configuration, as well as how the authorities monitored and punished contestation. Popular Politics in an Aristocratic Republic combines recent historiographical approaches to classic themes from political, social, economic, and religious Venetian history with contributions on gender, migration, and urban space. The volume will be essential reading for students of Venetian history, medieval and early modern Italy and Europe, political and social history.
Download or read book Riccardo Freda written by Roberto Curti and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2017-03-21 with total page 376 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In an eclectic career spanning four decades, Italian director Riccardo Freda (1909-1999) produced films of remarkable technical skill and powerful visual style, including the swashbuckler Black Eagle (1946), an adaptation of Les Miserables (1947), the peplum Theodora, Slave Empress (1954) and a number of cult-favorite Gothic and horror films such as I Vampiri (1957), The Horrible Dr. Hichcock (1962) and The Ghost (1963). Freda was first championed in the 1960s by French critics who labeled him "the European Raoul Walsh," and enjoyed growing critical esteem over the years. This book covers his life and career for the first time in English, with detailed analyses of his films and exclusive interviews with his collaborators and family.
Download or read book The Italian Far Right from 1945 to the Russia Ukraine Conflict written by Nicola Guerra and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-12-19 with total page 291 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Italian Far Right from 1945 to the Russia–Ukraine Conflict provides a comprehensive account of the postwar parliamentary and extra parliamentary far right in Italy. This book explores the ideology, movements and activism of the extreme right and neo- fascists. The recent victory in the Italian parliamentary elections of the ‘post-fascist’ party Fratelli d’Italia and its leader Giorgia Meloni highlights the importance of such research. The book examines why some of these movements participated with CIA- backing in the ‘Strategy of Tension’ in the years of the Cold War where terrorist actions aimed to keep Italy in NATO and prevent the Communist Party from coming to power, while other extreme- right groups vehemently opposed this and what they considered the dangerous ‘Americanization’ of the country. It debunks the myth that there was a unified postwar fascist movement in Italy, but instead excavates the complex battles within the extreme right as well as with their opponents from the left, and the authorities. This study is necessary to clarify the history and ideological dynamics of a political area still too often shrouded in mystery and whose geopolitical role is still poorly understood and generally underestimated. The analysis is contextualized in the present day by looking at the different perspectives of the Italian far right on the Russian invasion of Ukraine. The book will be of interest to researchers of political history, the Cold War and Italian history and politics.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Molte le sfumature che colorano ogni pagina, molti i colori scelti, ampia la tavolozza delle possibilità. L'autrice cerca di mostrare ogni aspetto possibile del rapporto uomo-donna in maniera divertita e appassionata, romantica ma anche disincantata, in favole moderne che si leggono piacevolmente e si lasciano divorare velocemente. Un libro che ti accompagna in autobus, in treno o in qualche attesa. Un libro leggero nel senso che non pretende di pesarti, ma vuole distrarti e strapparti una riflessione e un sorriso. Cartoline d'amore, di vita, di quotidianità scritte con la voglia di mostrare uno spaccato di vita che riguarda tutti noi. Sentimenti, volti, parole, aspettative, sogni, desideri, semplice voglia di una distrazione, luoghi comuni, dinamiche si rincorrono in una carrellata intrigante già dal titolo. Un libro pieno di piccole sorprese che non mancheranno di stupire. Un libro d'amore sexy per ragazze per bene. E non solo." Federico Moccia

Book excerpt: The acclaimed author of Revolutionary Road—one of the most important writers of the twentieth century—movingly portrays a man and a woman from their courtship and marriage in the 1950s to their divorce in the 70s, chronicling their heartbreaking attempts to reach their highest ambitions. Michael Davenport dreams of being a poet after returning home from World War II Europe, and at first he and his new wife Lucy enjoy their life together. But as the decades pass and the success of others creates an oppressive fear of failure in both Michael and Lucy, their once bright future gives way to a life of adultery and isolation. With empathy and grace, Yates creates a poignant novel of the desires and disasters of a tragic, hopeful couple.
