Book excerpt: Il volume ripropone dieci tra i principali scritti e discorsi di Guido Carli nel triennio di presidenza della Confindustria, preceduti dalla ricerca dell&'Ente Einaudi sullo sviluppo economico guidata da Carli tra il 1975 e il 1976 e seguiti dalle sue memorie relative all&'esperienza confindustriale, pubblicate nel 1993. I testi forniscono una vasta documentazione della concezione di Carli sui modi di tutela degli interessi industriali attraverso l&'accettazione di un mercato aperto alla concorrenza (i cui tratti sono esposti nello Statuto dell&'impresa) nel quale la politica economica rafforza i contenuti di stimolo alla crescita e perde quelli assistenziali (come descritto nell&'Operazione sviluppo). L&'ampia introduzione curata da Paolo Savona analizza l&'esperienza di Carli come presidente della Confindustria dalla sua -anomala- elezione voluta da Gianni Agnelli nel 1976 al suo discorso di commiato nel 1980 e ai successivi anni vissuti come presidente degli industriali europei. Essa tratta della riorganizzazione gestionale degli uffici romani, con particolare riferimento al Centro studi, e dell&'impostazione politica data all&'organizzazione in uno dei momenti più difficili attraversati dall&'Italia e in vista del &"compromesso storico&".

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Guido Carli fu eletto due volte senatore (maggio 1983 e luglio 1987) nelle liste della Democrazia cristiana. Chiamato nel luglio 1989 ad assumere la carica di ministro del Tesoro nel quinto governo Andreotti, tenne quell'incarico fino al giugno 1992, partecipando al negoziato che nel gennaio 1992 portò alla firma del Trattato di Maastricht. Per la sua autorevolezza, acquisita lungo la sua carriera nei contesti internazionali, e per la sua lucidità negoziale riuscì a imporre nel testo del trattato quegli spiragli che consentirono poi all'Italia di entrare nell'euro, in particolare l'interpretazione non rigida ma flessibile del parametro del debito pubblico. Ottenne così nel negoziato sulla moneta unica quello che invece non riuscì a conseguire nell'arena interna per contenere la crescita del debito pubblico, Molti degli obiettivi che in seguito furono avviati a soluzione, dalle privatizzazioni alla politica dei redditi, alla riforma della previdenza, furono da lui messi a fuoco e fatti oggetto di discussione all'interno del governo. Ma di ogni sua proposta venne rinviata la decisione. Gli scritti di Carli contenuti in questo volume documentano questa sua determinata inclinazione e illustrano l'insieme di idee e di proposte che egli diede, per lo più inascoltato, al dibattito politico di allora, offrendo ancora oggi un contributo alla riflessione politica ed economica.

Download or read book The Impresario from Smyrna written by Carlo Goldoni and published by . This book was released on 2014-10-25 with total page 68 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First produced in Venice in 1761, The Impresario From Smyrna is a comedy depicting the vanities of eighteenth century Italian opera singers. Ali, a wealthy merchant from Smyrna, is planning to introduce Italian opera into Turkey and has enlisted the aid of two agents, Count Lasca and Nibio. Ali is attracted to three pretty sopranos, Lucrezia, Tognina and Annina, but their constant bickering over who is to be considered the prima donna and the exorbitant demands of all concerned make him reconsider his plans. He returns to the relative peace of his Smyrna harem, leaving the company a small sum of money, which they decide to spend on launching a theatre.From the performers to the impresario, the play is a funny look at behind-the-scene rivalries, diva fits, casting couches and audition gossip but it is also about the beautiful vulnerability of the romanticized artistic personae and the mythologies that surround stage life."

Download or read book Modernity Complex Societies and the Alphorn written by Charlotte Vignau and published by Lexington Books. This book was released on 2013-02-14 with total page 331 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Modernity, Complex Societies, and the Alphorn provides a fascinating examination of the musical instrument the alphorn, alphorn music and its performance. Indeed, it is the first book about this extraordinary instrument to appear in English. It analyses the alphorn phenomenon as a symbol of the Swiss nation, going back to the Swiss nation building process in the nineteenth century and the “invention of tradition” which began in the second half of the nineteenth century, before arriving at important issues of contemporary alphorn practice such as: what is tradition? How is it being negotiated? The insightful and valuable comments from key Swiss alphorn players add to the extensive ethnographic and archival material. Departing from this analysis, the case studies of Bavaria, the Netherlands, and Japan shed a light on the issues of worldwide migration of alphorn practice in the modern world, as well as on the diverse concepts of a Swiss imagery. Intellectually sophisticated yet easily accessible, the book ends with an exploration of how to use video and film for musical ethnography, considering the practical issues of filmmaking as well as the theoretical implications of shooting and editing for an ethnomusicological film. Drawing from the alphorn film as a sample, this book covers the entire filmmaking process, from the conception of the film to the feedback-sessions with the protagonists, providing fundamental insights into this technique for ethnomusicologists. Based on solid, careful, and complete research, this work will especially appeal to scholars of musicology, Swiss history, and filmography.

Download or read book 100 Silent Films written by Bryony Dixon and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2017-10-07 with total page 270 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 100 Silent Films provides an authoritative and accessible history of silent cinema through one hundred of its most interesting and significant films. As Bryony Dixon contends, silent cinema is not a genre; it is the first 35 years of film history, a complex negotiation between art and commerce and a union of creativity and technology. At its most grand – on the big screen with a full orchestral accompaniment – it is magnificent, permitting a depth of emotional engagement rarely found in other fields of cinema. Silent film was hugely popular in its day, and its success enabled the development of large-scale film production in the United States and Europe. It was the start of our fascination with the moving image as a disseminator of information and as mass entertainment with its consequent celebrity culture. The digital revolution in the last few years and the restoration and reissue of archival treasures have contributed to a huge resurgence of interest in silent cinema. Bryony Dixon's illuminating guide introduces a wide range of films of the silent period (1895–1930), including classics such as The Birth of a Nation (1915), The General (1926), Metropolis (1927), Sunrise (1927) and Pandora's Box (1928), alongside more unexpected choices, and represents major genres and directors of the period – Griffith, Keaton, Chaplin, Murnau, Sjöström, Dovzhenko and Eisenstein – together with an introductory overview and useful filmographic and bibliographic information.

Book excerpt: A NEW YORK TIMES EDITORS’ CHOICE FROM THE AWARD-WINNING AUTHOR OF THE ROTTERS’ CLUB AND MIDDLE ENGLAND In the heady summer of 1977, a naïve young woman called Calista sets out from Athens to venture into the wider world. On a Greek island that has been turned into a film set, she finds herself working for the famed Hollywood director Billy Wilder, about whom she knows almost nothing. But the time she spends in this glamorous, unfamiliar new life will change her for good. While Calista is thrilled with her new adventure, Wilder himself is living with the realization that his star may be on the wane. Rebuffed by Hollywood, he has financed his new film with German money, and when Calista follows him to Munich for the shooting of further scenes, she finds herself joining him on a journey of memory into the dark heart of his family history. In a novel that is at once a tender coming-of-age story and an intimate portrait of one of cinema’s most intriguing figures, Jonathan Coe turns his gaze on the nature of time and fame, of family and the treacherous lure of nostalgia. When the world is catapulting towards change, do you hold on for dear life or decide it's time to let go? “Outstanding... In a sense, the novel toward which Coe’s fiction has always been heading.”—Los Angeles Review of Books

Download or read book Singers of Italian Opera written by John Rosselli and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1995-03-02 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Adelina Patti was the most highly regarded singer in history. She earned nearly $5,000 a night and had her own railway carriage. Yet a minor comic singer would perform for the cost of his food and a pair of shoes to wear on stage. John Rosselli's wide-ranging study introduces all those singers, members of the chorus as well as stars, who have sung Italian opera from 1600 to the twentieth century. Singers are shown slowly emancipating themselves from dependence on great patrons and entering the dangerous freedom of the market. Rosselli also examines the sexist prejudices against the castrati of the eighteenth century and against women singers. Securely rooted in painstaking scholarship and sprinkled with amusing anecdote, this is a book to fascinate and inform opera fans at all levels.
