What is the History of Emotions?

By: Barbara H. Rosenwein,Riccardo Cristiani

What Is the History of Emotions? offers an accessible path through the thicket of approaches, debates, and past and current trends in the history of emotions. Although historians have always talked about how people felt in the past, it is only in the last two decades that they have found systematic and well-grounded ways to treat the topic. Rosenwein and Cristiani begin with the science of emotion, explaining what contemporary psychologists and neuropsychologists think emotions are. They continue with the major early, foundational approaches to the history of emotions, and they treat in depth new work that emphasizes the role of the body and its gestures. Along the way, they discuss how ideas about emotions and their history have been incorporated into modern literature and technology, from children's books to videogames. Students, teachers, and anyone else interested in emotions and how to think about them historically will find this book to be an indispensable and fascinating guide not only to the past but to what may lie ahead.

Philosophy of Music

A History

By: Riccardo Martinelli

Ranging from Antiquity to contemporary analytic philosophy, it provides a concise but thorough analysis of the arguments developed by some of the most outstanding philosophers of all times. Besides the aesthetics of music proper, the volume touches upon metaphysics, ethics, philosophy of language, psychology, anthropology, and scientific developments that have influenced the philosophical explanations of music. Starting from the very origins of philosophy in Western thought (Pythagoras, Plato, Aristotle) the book talks about what music is according to Augustine, Descartes, Leibniz, Rousseau, Kant, Hegel, the Romantics, Schopenhauer, Nietzsche, Wittgenstein, Susanne Langer, Bloch, Adorno, and many others. Recent developments within the analytic tradition are illustrated with particular attention to the ontology of the musical artwork and to the problem of music and emotions. A fascinating idea which recurs throughout the book is that philosophers allow for a sort of a secret kinship between music and philosophy, as means to reveal complementary aspects of truth.

Black Holes in Binaries and Galactic Nuclei: Diagnostics, Demography and Formation

Proceedings of the ESO Workshop Held at Garching, Germany, 6-8 September 1999, in Honour of Riccardo Giacconi

By: Riccardo Giacconi,L. Kaper,E.P.J. van den Heuvel

The observational evidence for the existence of black holes has grown significantly over recent decades. Stellar-mass black holes are detected as X-ray sources in binary systems, while supermassive black holes, with masses more than a million times the mass of the Sun, lurk in the nuclei of galaxies. These proceedings provide a useful and up-to-date overview of the observations of black holes in binaries, in the center of the Milky Way, and in the nuclei of galaxies, presented by leading expert astronomers. Special attention is given to the formation (including the recent evidence from gamma-ray bursts), physical properties, and demographics of black holes.

The Saint-Etienne Compound Hypogea, Jerusalem

Geological, architectural and archaeological characteristics: A comparative study and dating

By: Riccardo Lufrani

In 1885, a large hypogeum was discovered at the Saint-Étienne Compound, the domain acquired only two and a half years before by the Dominicans on the western slope of El Heidhemiyeh hill, about 250 m north of the Jerusalem Ottoman wall. After the unearthing of a second large hypogeum, only fifty metres north of Hypogeum 1, in their monumental work on the history of Jerusalem, the two eminent Dominican scholars Louis-Hugues Vincent and Felix-Marie Abel proposed to date the two burial complexes to the Hellenistic or Roman period. This dating remained unchallenged until the survey of 1974–75, carried out by the distinguished Israeli archaeologists Gabriel Barkay and Amos Kloner, who proposed to date the two burial caves towards the end of the Judahite kingdom, on the basis of an unsystematic comparison of few architectural features with those of other tombs. In the frame of the improved knowledge of the broad and adjacent archaeological contexts since the last study of the Saint-Étienne Compound Hypogea, between 2011 and 2014 Riccardo Lufrani carried out a detailed survey of the two burial caves, providing new and more detailed photographic, topographic, archaeological and geological documentation. The systematic comparison of the significant architectural features of the Saint-Étienne Compound Hypogea with a consistent sample of 22 tombs in the region suggest dating the hewing of the two hypogea to the Early Hellenistic period, shedding a new light on the history of Jerusalem.

Pràgmata

numero 1 | anno 2022

By: Riccardo De Biase

«Pràgmata» vuole essere strumento di indagine filosofica destinata a coprire uno spazio teorico ben determinato, ma non per questo esclusivo ed escludente. La matrice degli interessi convogliati nella rivista, infatti, sorge da una già collaudata dimensione di riflessioni e interessi praticati e consolidati, una dimensione mirata ad accogliere tradizioni e temi diversi ma non dissimili. La filosofia critico-trascendentale di impronta kantiana e neokantiana, il pensiero pragmatista, la Kulturphilosophie e le sue radici nell’Idealismo classico tedesco: questi i piani di ricerca che saranno messi a fuoco dai contributi degli studiosi della più ampia estrazione, senza però negarsi incursioni analitiche nella filosofia della tecnica, delle immagini e delle culture digitali.

Il limbo di Giano

By: Riccardo Maffey

Roma nel '59 che aspetta la proiezione della Dolce vita. I nobili del sangue e gli arrivisti, gli snob e la bella gente, il mondo del cinema e i bigotti, gli intellettualoidi e gli artisti. E Giada Rovi-Sanlupi, la giovane volubile e anticonformista figlia d'un marchese del baldacchino. E la bellezza di Venus Victrix che rivive nelle sembianze di Germaine Kenneth, la sofisticata, bisessuale attrice scespiriana E l'invadente, promiscua amazzone Bea Alemanni. Tutti in un racconto psicologico nel quale il mal marié Cristiano Belisario, la voce narrante in terza persona, ha appena completato la sceneggiatura della vita di Paolina Borghese per scoprire che la sua libertà individuale e di scrittore e di innamorato è come lo specchio d'un salotto angusto: dà la mera illusione dello spazio.
