Disagiotopia

Autore: Florencia Andreola

Numero di pagine: 190

A lungo ci siamo raccontati che questo era il migliore dei mondi possibili, e invece eccoci qua a fare i conti con gli effetti collaterali del nostro modello di sviluppo: diseguaglianza, nevrosi, precarietà di massa. Entrato da almeno quattro decenni in una fase di crisi severa, forse terminale, il capitalismo occidentale non riesce a produrre benessere materiale senza diffondere allo stesso tempo un malessere profondo. Finito il tempo delle utopie, ogni sfera dell’esistenza viene toccata da quello che ormai appare come un fenomeno endemico: dalla vita politica a quella psichica, dallo spazio urbano a quello domestico, dall’adolescenza all’età adulta. Per orientarci in questa terra desolata, abbiamo chiesto a otto autrici e autori di provare a disegnare una mappa del disagio. Otto tra storici, filosofi, architetti, urbanisti, sociologi, psicologi per raccontare il nostro “tempo fuori di sesto” e immaginare delle forme di resistenza. Con interventi di: Pier Vittorio Aureli Federico Chicchi Umberto Galimberti Maria Giudici Loretta Lees Guido Mazzoni Saskia Sassen Raffaele Alberto Ventura

Daniele Barbaro’s Vitruvius of 1567

Autore: Kim Williams

Numero di pagine: 849

This is the first-ever English translation of Daniele Barbaro’s 1567 Italian translation of and commentary on Vitruvius’s Ten Books of Architecture, an encyclopaedic treatment of science and technology whose influence extended far beyond its day. Intended to both interpret and expand upon the Vitruvian text, Barbaro’s erudite commentary reflects his Aristotelian approach, particularly his fascination with the relationship between science and the arts. This treatise offers a window onto the architectural ideals of the 1500s, as well as then-current notions of philosophy, mathematics, music, astronomy, mechanics, and more. The text is accompanied by illustrations by the Renaissance architect Andrea Palladio and his contemporaries. Palladio’s own Four Books on Architecture, published in 1570, was just one of many treatises on architecture that was inspired by the ideas contained here. An overview of Daniele Barbaro’s thinking is presented in a foreword by Branko Mitrovic ́. The collocation of Barbaro’s treatise between those of Alberti and Palladio is addressed in a foreword by Robert Tavernor. Kim Williams provides a translator’s note to orient the reader.

The Badia Fiesolana

Autore: Angela Dressen , Klaus Pietschmann

Numero di pagine: 217

The monastery of the Badia Fiesolana on the outskirts of Florence has often been seen as a secondary project of the Medici. However new research has shown that the family's involvement in its financial, cultural, intellectual, religious and artistic affairs is central to its development under Cosimo and Lorenzo de'Medici during the 15th century. In the remarkable setting of the Badia, where art and architectural structure was studied anew, erudite abbots encountered learned humanists. The proceedings of a conference held in 2013 shed new light on cultural and scholarly life in and around Florence. Angela Dressen is Andrew W. Mellon Librarian at Villa I Tatti, the Harvard University Center for Italian Renaissance Studies. Klaus Pietschmann is Professor for Musicology at the Johannes Gutenberg-Universitaet Mainz.
