Story0
A palavra pressa é o particípio passado, em latim, do verbo premere (apertar). Assim, pode-se dizer que A História do Cinema para Quem Tem Pressa se propõe a contar uma das maiores sagas do século 20 (e deste início do 21) para quem precisa apertar o passo ou está apertado de tempo. E quem não está? Sabadin traça um panorama do cinema – linguagem que há mais de um século revoluciona nossa maneira de ver a vida –, desde a época em que seus inventores nem sabiam direito o que fazer com ele, até os dias de hoje, quando movimenta bilhões de dólares pelos cinco continentes.

Story0
The central argument of Chromophobia is that a chromophobic impulse—a fear of corruption or contamination through color—lurks within much Western cultural and intellectual thought. This is apparent in the many and varied attempts to purge color, either by making it the property of some foreign body—the oriental, the feminine, the infantile, the vulgar, or the pathological—or by relegating it to the realm of the superficial, the supplementary, the inessential, or the cosmetic.

Story0
Is there such a thing as a timeless classic? More than a decade ago, Rochelle Gurstein set out to explore and establish a solid foundation for the classic in the history of taste. To her surprise, that history instead revealed repeated episodes of soaring and falling reputations, rediscoveries of long-forgotten artists, and radical shifts in the canon, all of which went so completely against common knowledge that it was hard to believe it was true.

In a masterpiece of historical detective work, Sarah Lewis exposes one of the most damaging lies in American history. There was a time when Americans were confronted with the fictions shoring up the nation’s racial regime and learned to disregard them. The true significance of this hidden history has gone unseen—until now. Groundbreaking and profoundly resonant, The Unseen Truth shows how visual tactics have long secured our regime of racial hierarchy in spite of its false foundations—and offers a way to begin to dismantle it.

Автор, искусствовед и магистр философии, поселился отшельником в Венеции, где счастливо подмачивает свою репутацию бездельника, взявшись за сочинительство новелл, богословских трактатов и сказок, мастерит рукописные книжицы. Возникает впечатление, что и строки эти выведены преострым каллиграфическим пером.

Nessun personaggio storico, se si esclude, forse, Adolf Hitler, ha mai goduto di così cattiva stampa come Nerone. Alcuni autori cristiani ritennero che fosse addirittura l’Anticristo. In realtà, Nerone fu un grandissimo uomo di Stato. Durante i quattordici anni del suo regno l’Impero conobbe un periodo di pace, di prosperità, di dinamismo economico e culturale quale non ebbe mai né prima né dopo di lui.

Esistono periodi straordinari durante i quali, in un unico luogo e tempo, in un solo campo del sapere, si succedono e si affiancano così tanti uomini geniali da far gridare al miracolo. È il caso dei poeti tragici e lirici nella Grecia del quinto secolo avanti Cristo, dei filosofi tedeschi del Settecento e dell'Ottocento. E, ovviamente, dei pittori italiani del Rinascimento. In poco più di due secoli, una fioritura mai vista prima di talenti rivoluzionò la pittura, creando una nuova visione del mondo che suscita, ancora oggi, stupore, estasi, meraviglia.
