Download or read book The Italian Renaissance of Machines written by Paolo Galluzzi and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 2020-02-04 with total page 297 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Renaissance was not just a rebirth of the mind. It was also a new dawn for the machine. When we celebrate the achievements of the Renaissance, we instinctively refer, above all, to its artistic and literary masterpieces. During the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries, however, the Italian peninsula was the stage of a no-less-impressive revival of technical knowledge and practice. In this rich and lavishly illustrated volume, Paolo Galluzzi guides readers through a singularly inventive period, capturing the fusion of artistry and engineering that spurred some of the Renaissance’s greatest technological breakthroughs. Galluzzi traces the emergence of a new and important historical figure: the artist-engineer. In the medieval world, innovators remained anonymous. By the height of the fifteenth century, artist-engineers like Leonardo da Vinci were sought after by powerful patrons, generously remunerated, and exhibited in royal and noble courts. In an age that witnessed continuous wars, the robust expansion of trade and industry, and intense urbanization, these practitioners—with their multiple skills refined in the laboratory that was the Renaissance workshop—became catalysts for change. Renaissance masters were not only astoundingly creative but also championed a new concept of learning, characterized by observation, technical know-how, growing mathematical competence, and prowess at the draftsman’s table. The Italian Renaissance of Machines enriches our appreciation for Taccola, Giovanni Fontana, and other masters of the quattrocento and reveals how da Vinci’s ambitious achievements paved the way for Galileo’s revolutionary mathematical science of mechanics.

Download or read book Bibliophilos written by Charalambos Dendrinos and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2021-06-08 with total page 663 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The present volume is a Festschrift in honour of the distinguished Byzantinist Costas N. Constantinides. The title of the volume, Bibliophilos: Books and Learning in the Byzantine World, reflects Professor Constantinides’ major contribution to the fields of Greek palaeography, editions of Byzantine texts, Byzantine history, scholarship and education, and Cypriot manuscripts and culture. The volume is introduced by a preface and a tabula gratulatoria dedicated to the honorand, followed by twenty articles, written by seasoned and younger scholars, who are former colleagues and students of Professor Constantinides. These articles, which appear in alphabetical order, offer new material and shed fresh light to the study of Greek manuscripts, binders and scribes, and the life, works and activities of Byzantine scholars, teachers and students, providing editions of unpublished texts, including letters and poems, and exploring various aspects of Byzantine and Cypriot history, literature, art, science and culture. In the process the authors often challenge earlier views and offer new interpretations and insights. Bibliophilos is a book for the student, teacher and scholar of Byzantium in particular, and for every bibliophile in general.

Download or read book Translation Activity in Late Byzantine World written by Panagiotis Athanasopoulos and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2022-09-05 with total page 628 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the late Byzantine period (1261-1453), a significant number of texts were translated from Latin, but also from Arabic and other languages, into Greek. Most of them are still unedited or available in editions that do not meet the modern academic criteria. Nowadays, these translations are attracting scholarly attention, as it is widely recognized that, besides their philological importance per se, they can shed light on the cultural interactions between late Byzantines and their neighbours or predecessors. To address this desideratum, this volume focuses on the cultural context, the translators and the texts produced during the Palaeologan era, extending as well till the end of 15th c. in ex-Byzantine territories. By shedding light on the translation activity of late Byzantine scholars, this volume aims at revealing the cultural aspect of late Byzantine openness to its neighbours.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: «Fare una descrizione precisa di ciò che non ha mai avuto luogo è il compito dello storico». La sentenza di Oscar Wilde guida questa ricostruzione del rimosso del cinema del Novecento, la storia dei grandi film non fatti, dal Don Chisciotte di Welles al Viaggio di G. Mastorna di Fellini, dal Cristo di Dreyer al Napoleone di Kubrick, dal Que viva Mexico! e Il prato di Bežin di Ejzenštejn al The Day the Clown Cried di Lewis. E ancora, Godard, Pasolini, Munk, Vertov, Lanzmann: la storia di grandi progetti incompiuti, di riprese che si sono protratte per decenni e poi sono state dimenticate in qualche magazzino, immagini rimaste sulla carta oppure riutilizzate, ma al di fuori della loro destinazione originaria. Attraverso questo racconto, emerge il profilo di quello che il Novecento non ha saputo vedere e raccontare, il retro della Storia, nonché il profilo di una storia delle immagini del cinema che disloca la centralità della sala cinematografica per far emergere i meccanismi di negoziazione e i doveri d’autore che preludono alla visibilità o alla scomparsa di tali immagini perdute.
